v1.4.0

The biggest update openGym has had: a new exercise database with 5,632 exercises and new
animations, everything that was planned for v1.3.11 and v1.3.12, and the features you asked for
most. Forty-seven community pull requests from twenty contributors. Web bundle, APK and API image.

Nothing you logged changes. Every exercise that ever shipped keeps its id, name and muscles,
so workouts, routines, records and backups stay exactly as they are. A phone still on v1.3.x keeps
working with a v1.4.0 server, and shows the new exercises it doesn't know yet without losing them.

The new exercise database

• 5,632 exercises instead of 1,324: bands and kettlebells, suspension trainers and landmines,
  machines of every kind, plus stretching, mobility, yoga and pilates. Each one with a short
  description, steps, body part, equipment and muscles, and its name in every app language
  (German names for the new exercises are machine-made and waiting for a review).
• New animations, licensed from Gym visual: sharp 360 px loops inside the app, 180 px on the
  web and on your own server, and a still for every exercise.
• Male or female drawings: about 940 exercises are drawn on both figures. Settings, Look,
  "Exercise drawings" picks which one you see. Only the picture changes, never your data.
• A type filter in the library: strength, calisthenics, olympic, stretching, mobility, yoga
  and more.
• Search rebuilt (#192): best matches first, typos forgiven ("sqat", "dumbel curl"), gym
  shorthand understood ("db", "rdl", "ohp"), plurals too ("pull ups"), and "Similar exercises"
  under the results, so a search almost never ends on nothing.
• Swap suggests the same muscle first (#473), same equipment at the top.
• The catalogue lives in the repository, one file per exercise, open to fixes and translations
  by pull request (catalogue/README.md). "Suggest a fix for this exercise" in the app opens an
  issue for that one exercise.

Training

• Sets to failure: mark any set as taken to failure from its set menu and it gets a little
  purple "F". It counts as RIR 0 in your effort stats and the fatigue map (unless you rated it
  yourself) and stays a normal work set for volume and records. "Last set to failure" in an
  exercise's settings plans the final set as an all-out one.
• Triple progression (#179): reps climb to the top of the range, then a set is added, up to
  the most sets you allow; when every set sits at the top, the weight goes up and you start over.
• Back-off sets (dennismstfc, #475): every set one step lighter than the one before.
• Per dumbbell or both together (#474): say what a dumbbell weight means, and volume and
  records count it right. Your old entries stay as you typed them.
• Your dumbbell rack (#376): list the dumbbells you own, and progression, deloads, warm-ups and
  the + and − buttons only land on those.
• Treadmill incline: an incline in % next to speed on walking, running and stair machines.
• A fairer fatigue map (sg41, #436): counted in hard sets with its own recovery time per
  muscle, so a split no longer looks fatigued forever.
• Pyramid sets with a weight per set (akram1089, #446, #445), 1RM from seven formulas with
  your pick of one (giulioleuci, #195, #155), per-set progress lines (iamtechnoana, #450, #145).

During a workout

• Exercise chips (#323): a numbered dot per exercise at the top, filled as you go. Tap one to
  jump there.
• Collapse completed exercises (helgehelge123, #241; Discord): in the list view a finished
  exercise folds into one line the moment you tick its last set, and a tap opens it again. Turn it
  on for good in Settings, Workout.
• Focus view (giulioleuci, #222): one exercise at a time, nothing else on screen.
• Pick your rest-end sound (#306): chime, classic, bell, beep-beep, whistle or soft, with a
  preview, on Android with the screen off too.
• Superset names and their own rest after each round.

After a workout and around it

• Last time and next time on the finish screen (#324): up, same or down, and what's next.
• Share a workout as an image (anihothur, #455, #453).
• Export to Garmin (#447): any finished workout as a .fit file, sets included.
• Body measurements (robertgeica, #82): waist, arms, body fat and anything else, each with its
  own curve.
• A note for a missed day (#261): sick, travelling, injured or your own words. The missed-day
  reminder leaves that day alone.
• Health Connect on Android (DrDamnation, #371, #200): finished workouts and weigh-ins go to
  Health Connect.

Equipment and languages

• Bench and pull-up bar as equipment (pawell67, #464), starter plans fitted to your equipment
  (#469), clubbell and macebell (akram1089, #425).
• 🇧🇩 Bengali (mrjohndoel, #465), Polish exercise names and a full Polish review
  (pawell67, #467), French says tu and Russian says вы throughout (kurktchiev, #413, #414), plainer
  Turkish (iamtechnoana, #451).

Coach

• The Coach sticks to your equipment and never sneaks in a machine you don't have.
• A follow-up question in the chat no longer comes back as "something the app couldn't use" (#471).
• Extra headers and an adjustable output limit for OpenAI-compatible endpoints (janviernine, #386;
  danifuuu, #390), bases that carry their own version (iamtechnoana, #449, #437), consent and intake
  in your language (kurktchiev, #415).

The app and your server

• Cloudflare Access (EthanetXYZ, #439): pair with a server behind Zero Trust using a service
  token, which only ever goes to that one server.
• Plain http:// servers at home can be paired (#428); the "not connected" line is gone on a phone
  kept local and can be closed by a guest (anshuman83-40, #462, #454).
• The web image runs without root (mvanhorn, #466). Kubernetes and Helm now use port 8080.
• Self-hosting got simpler: the exercise media ship inside the web image, nothing is downloaded
  on first start. An old media service or folder is no longer used and can go.
• Helm chart (aphisitworachorch, #418), Nix flake and NixOS module (gerrydoro, #452), push
  to private addresses with ALLOWED_PRIVATE_IPS (ViktorShapoval, #448).

Fixes

• In the Android app the exercise animations play by themselves (they sat on their first frame),
  and the rest-end tone plays with the screen off on phones that refused it before.
• Warm-ups: unilateral ones count (sgoendoer, #388), a barbell warm-up is never lighter than the
  bar (#409), editing one leaves the rest of the ramp alone (#442).
• Superset Move up/down stays inside the superset (#443), swipes land where they should (#457),
  zero added weight stays editable (ac1982, #461), Apple Health imports read each record's unit
  (ac1982, #432), plate targets stay loadable (ac1982, #433), big media exports stay importable
  (agammann, #430), the rest bar keeps its scale (aitordiaz, #423), a failed Sign out says what
  failed (#456), and a re-import from Strong or Hevy no longer splits one exercise into two.
• Many small fixes from kurktchiev (#401 to #410, #412).
