SetRecapThe private gym diary
Practical guide

Convert your gym routine into a digital workout diary

If your routine is on paper, in a PDF, in Excel or in a message, SetRecap helps you turn it into a structured plan you can actually use while training.

A realistic use case, told step by step

Lucas already has a gym program. He needs a usable copy.

Illustrative story: the character and details are fictional, not a customer testimonial.

The challenge

Re-entering three workout days by hand would take longer than it should.

Before · The problem

The plan is clear on paper

Lucas receives a three-day program from his coach. It includes four sets of eight to ten repetitions, ninety-second rest intervals and notes on squat execution. Those details are easy to read on paper, but copying every field into a phone feels tedious. He does not want an assistant to invent a better routine; he wants a faithful digital version of the one he already has.

During · The approach

He converts and checks the details

Lucas sends the text or document to the import assistant and keeps the order of the workout days. He looks specifically for details that are easy to lose: a range of 8–10 must not silently become 10, and an execution note must remain attached to the correct exercise. The assistant provides an import link that opens a preview in SetRecap.

After · The outcome

The preview is part of the process

Before confirming, Lucas compares the preview with the original and corrects one abbreviated exercise name. Only then does he save the routine. When he trains, the actual weights and repetitions are logged separately from the planned targets. The original document remains his reference.
