How routines work
A routine is a workout plan you save and use again.
A routine holds your exercises. It can also hold the sets, reps, and weights you plan to do.
A set is one group of lifts you do in a row, and you rest after each set. A rep is one lift.
Routines are the only records in MesoMetric with a name. Workouts have no name and are found by date.
Where to find them
On the Command Center, tap the Routine Workbench card.
Three ways to make one
| Way | What it does |
|---|---|
| Create a routine and add exercises | Builds a plan from scratch |
| Save as Routine after a workout | Saves a workout you finished as a plan |
| Import a routine by pasting text | Brings in a plan sent to you |
Using a routine
Tap a routine in the list. MesoMetric creates a new workout with those exercises and starts it immediately. There is no confirmation.
To open a routine without starting it, tap Edit.
Routines and workouts are separate
The workout and the routine separate the moment the workout starts:
- Changing the workout does not change the routine.
- Changing the routine does not change workouts already done.
Deleting a routine does not delete workouts. They remain in History.
