Editing set details in Metric Lift

Change the exercise, weight or RPE after a set, hide false reps, and delete a set you do not want.

UPDATED

Open a set’s review, tap the menu at the top, then tap Edit set to fix the exercise, the weight or the RPE. Metric Lift recalculates everything that depends on them. To clean up the rep count, hide a rep in the rep table.

Edit the set details

  1. Open the set review.
  2. Tap the menu at the top, then tap Edit set.
  3. Change the weight or the weight unit, the exercise, or the RPE or RIR. As a coach, you can also change the athlete who did the set.
  4. Save the changes.

Metric Lift recalculates power, estimated 1RM, personal records, and the load-velocity and power profiles. Bar speed does not depend on load, so velocity stays the same.

To fix a wrong plate size, record or import the set again. See Custom plate sizes.

Hide a false rep

Metric Lift counts only real reps. It skips the unrack and rerack, and the catch and recovery on a clean. Now and then, one of those still counts as a rep.

Loaded jumps, such as a jump squat, throw the most false reps. The landing and the catch after the jump can count as a second rep. Hide that rep in the rep table.

  1. Open the set review and scroll down to the rep table.
  2. Tap the minus icon on the rep to hide it.

A hidden rep drops out of the set’s data. To bring a rep back, tap its plus icon. This also works when Metric Lift hides a real rep by mistake.

Edit inside a workout or history

In the workout view, edit the weight and the RPE of any set in its row. History has a set view and a workout view, and both allow the same edits. Open the set or the workout, then edit in the row. On Free, History shows your last 7 days.

Delete a set

  • A quick set. When you leave the set review, tap Discard set data.
  • A set in a workout. Swipe left on the set, then tap Permanently delete.
  • A set in history. In the sets view, swipe left on the set card, then confirm.
  • From the set review. Tap the menu at the top, then tap Delete set.

Warning: Deleting a set is permanent, and it also deletes the set’s video. Deleting a video from the video library does not delete the set data.
