PUSH Portal Release Notes

Release 4.8.0 - 1RM Derivatives

June 8, 2021

  • Use 1RM Derivatives in Portal! You can now use the 1RM for your core lifts to derive the 1RM for secondary lifts. When creating a 1RM for an athlete you can choose "Use Derivative 1RM", and then if you choose any exercise that is a derivative of a core lift that your athlete already has a 1RM for then the 1RM for the selected exercise will be automatically calculated and populated, so you can just set the date of that new 1RM and save.

  • When entering a new 1RM for an athlete you can also use highest load lifted in the last 30 days for that athlete and selected exercise.

  • Both of the above new 1RM entry features are also available when entering 1RMs for multiple athletes at once from the Athletes page.

  • Deleting a completed session from your App Library will no longer delete the original App Library session.

  • Completed App Library sessions will no longer appear twice in the Athlete Dashboard calendar.

  • Other minor bug fixes and improvements.
