How to use Machine Export
Machine Export writes your whole training history in a structured form.
It is built for coaching software to read, not for a person to read. For a readable summary, use a Coach Report.
Create a Machine Export
- Open Settings.
- Find the Machine Export card.
- Tap Machine Export.
- Read the warning, then tap Continue.
- Your phone's share screen opens.
The button reads Preparing export… while it works.
The warning
MesoMetric shows this before sharing anything:
This file holds your entire training history.
What the export contains
Every workout ever logged, as structured text.
Each session is a table of your sets, what you planned, what you logged, and the comparison. Coaching software reads those columns.
With no training logged, the export is a short note stating so.
Test entries are cleaned up
An exercise with no sets logged and "testing" in its name is dropped, as in a Coach Report.
Machine Export is not a backup
A Machine Export cannot be loaded back into MesoMetric. It is text only:
- no photos
- no restore path
To keep a recoverable copy of your training, use Back up my data.
