Track Exertion, Set Types, and More

Add effort context to each set. Legend lets you capture Rate of Perceived Effort (RPE), Reps in Reserve (RIR), and set types so hard sets, warm-ups, drops, and failure work are not treated the same.

Legend answers

How can I track how hard a set felt without relying only on reps and weight?

How can I distinguish warm-up, drop, failure, and working sets?

How can I review effort context alongside the set I actually logged?

Track Rate of Perceived Effort

RPE gives each completed set an intensity score, so the log captures how hard the work felt.

Track Rate of Perceived Effort

Use Rate of Perceived Effort when reps and weight do not explain the whole set:

  • Choose a 0-10 effort value from the set bottom sheet
  • See the selected effort beside the set after it is logged
  • Use color-coded effort to spot easy, hard, and near-limit work

Legend stores effort with the set, so the context remains attached to your workout history.

  • Separate productive hard sets from light technique work
  • Review effort alongside reps, weight, and completion state
  • Use RPE context when judging whether future progression is realistic

Track Reps in Reserve

RIR lets lifters think in remaining reps while Legend keeps the underlying effort data consistent.

Track Reps in Reserve

Switch effort capture to Reps in Reserve when that is how you judge intensity:

  • Log how many reps you believe were left in the tank
  • See the equivalent RPE value when you need to compare methods
  • Keep effort capture aligned with the language you use while training

RPE and RIR stay connected instead of becoming separate logging systems.

  • Use RIR for auto-regulated strength and hypertrophy sets
  • Review effort without translating every set in your head
  • Keep historic set data readable even if you change effort preference later

Mark warm-up, drop, failure, and superset work

Set types tell Legend what kind of work a set represents, not just what numbers were completed.

Mark warm-up, drop, failure, and superset work

Mark the set type directly from the same bottom sheet where you edit the set:

  • Use Warm up for preparation sets
  • Use Drop set and Failure when intensity changes the meaning of the set
  • Keep Superset labeling visible when exercises are grouped together

That keeps training context clear in the workout log and in future progression decisions.

  • Avoid treating warm-ups like normal working sets
  • Show set type labels next to completed set rows
  • Preserve set intent when reviewing older workouts
