Fast Manual Workout Logging: the Keypad | Strongbro
Quick answer
The keypad is Strongbro's manual path: a big weight × reps line, your last session prefilled, one arrow to log each set and a Done pill to save the day. Sets show as removable pills, the date and exercise are sheets, and nothing scrolls or reloads mid-workout.
Voice is the signature; the keypad is the workhorse. Loud gym, dead headphones, two-word answers — the manual path has to be effortless, so it is.
Built around one line
Weight × reps in huge digits, the active field in ink, the unit under it. The keypad below never moves. Your last session prefills both numbers, because most training is "same as last time, maybe a bit more" — which is also why the ready-to-progress list exists.
Sets as pills
Each logged set appears as a pill — "1 · 85 × 5" — tap to remove, watch the quiet count of exercises and sets grow. Switching exercises is a sheet with search and muscle filters, recently trained first.
Any day, not just today
The date pill in the header opens a calendar sheet, so yesterday's forgotten session takes the same three taps as today's. Backdated sets flow into records and insights with the date they belong to, keeping streaks and monthly numbers truthful.
Done means done
One tap saves the whole day, checks every set for records, and gets out of your way. Cancelling with sets logged asks once, in a sheet, like everything else in the app.
Frequently asked questions
How fast is a set, really?
If you're repeating last session's weight: one tap on the arrow. Changing weight or reps first is two or three more. The screen is built so your thumb never travels far between sets.
Can I edit a past workout?
Yes. Open any day from Home or an exercise page and the same keypad loads that day's sets for editing — add, remove, adjust, save.
What about cardio and bodyweight work?
The big line adapts: distance and minutes for cardio, plain reps for bodyweight movements. Same three-tap rhythm either way.
