The reps-in-reserve screen on your watch

Only appears on sets your routine has configured to ask for it — right after you confirm reps, before the set is logged.

What this screen shows

The value starts on "--" (not recorded) unless you already entered one for this set. It's purely for your own reference; the coaching engine never reads it and it never blocks logging.

Step by step

  1. Use UP/DOWN (or swipe up/down) to move from "--" through 0–5 reps in reserve. Reversing direction below 0 returns to "--".
  2. START logs the set regardless of what's showing — even "--" — and moves to the rest timer (or the workout summary, after the last set).
  3. BACK returns to the reps screen for the same set.

Good to know

Nothing about this screen can go "wrong" — it's a note to yourself, not a number the app grades you on.
