Warm-up and Working Sets: Track What Matters

Not all sets are created equal.

Your first set at 135 pounds isn't the same as your top set at 315. One is preparation - the other is the work that actually drives progress. Reps understands this distinction and gives you the tools to track each type of set appropriately.

Mark Sets as Warm-ups or Working Sets

When logging a set, you can designate it as either a warm-up or a working set. This simple distinction makes your training data far more useful.

Warm-up sets get you ready for the real work. Working sets are where the magic happens - where you push your limits, break plateaus, and build strength.

See Your Warm-up Progression

Even warm-up sets are tracked in your history, giving you a complete picture of how you prepare for heavy lifts.

Track Progression Where It Counts

When you review your exercise history or check your personal records, Reps can focus on your working sets. This gives you a clearer picture of your actual progression.

You don't care that you warmed up with 185 for 5 reps. You care that you hit 275 for 3 on your top set. Reps knows the difference.

Keep Your Warm-ups Organized

Even though warm-up sets don't count toward your progression tracking, they're still recorded in your workout history. This is useful for planning future sessions and maintaining consistency in your preparation.

See exactly how you warmed up for a heavy squat session three weeks ago. Repeat what worked. Adjust what didn't.

Perfect for Strength-Focused Training

If you're running a program like 5/3/1, Texas Method, or any other strength-focused routine, the warm-up vs. working set distinction is essential.

Your program cares about your main lifts - your top sets at prescribed intensities. Reps makes it easy to log everything while keeping your working sets front and center.

Focus on What Drives Progress

By separating warm-ups from working sets, you can see your true progression without the noise of lighter preparation sets. Your PRs, volume metrics, and training trends all reflect the work that actually matters.

Warm up smart. Track your work sets. Get stronger.
