Use typed exercise names and predictable reps-and-weight shorthand in Standard mode.

WHERE TO FIND IT

Active Workout → Standard mode → Quick Capture

On this page

Focus the correct exercise

Quick Capture is the text field at the bottom of Standard mode. It can add a movement, focus an existing one, or log sets to the focused exercise. Read the focus text beneath the field before entering numbers without an exercise name.

  1. Type an exercise name to add or focus it, or tap an exercise card to focus it.
  2. If several exercises match, open Exercise Matches with the list button. Choose the intended match and use the arrow to add it.
  3. Enter set shorthand and submit it. Check the resulting row before entering the next set.
  4. If the field is hidden, open the workout menu and choose Show Quick Capture.

Weighted examples

bench 135x8

Logs Bench Press for 8 reps at 135 in the applicable weight unit.

8 255

Logs 8 reps at 255 for the focused weighted exercise.

3x12x55

Logs three sets of 12 reps at 55. Spaced forms such as 3 x 12 x 55 are also accepted.

8 255 6 275

Logs two sets for the focused exercise: 8 at 255, then 6 at 275.

5

For a weighted exercise, reuses the previous logged set weight and logs 5 reps. A previous weight must exist first.

Bodyweight and matching limits

For a bodyweight exercise, push up 30 logs 30 reps. Once it is focused, 30 records another reps-only set. Use 10 +10 for 10 reps with 10 of added load. After a bodyweight set is logged, +10 adds load to that set without changing its reps.

Aliases from the Exercise Catalog are supported. If text is ambiguous, choose the exercise match or use a clearer reps-and-weight form. Cardio names can be added or focused, but enter time, speed, distance, and incline in the cardio fields.
