Progressive overload change detail

The full story behind one target adjustment — what changed and why, in plain language.

What this page does

A card lays out the facts: the date, the routine, the weight before and after, the target reps before and after, and what you actually did — your lowest working set's reps, or "cleared the top of your rep range" for a weight bump. Below that, "Why this changed" explains the decision in one paragraph, grounded in double progression.

Step by step

  1. Reach this from Overload history, or from the change strip on Progress → Trends — tap any row.
  2. Read the explanation, then to close and return to where you came from.

Good to know

The target is always set one rep above your lowest working set — your next number to beat — so a target that held or came down from a stronger earlier session still reads as forward motion: it's exactly one rep above what you just did, not a step back. Weight figures reflect what you actually lifted, plate granularity and all, not just the round number on the target.
