### Full transcript

Track your strength training in Zielfit. Here is the complete flow, from workout settings to saving your session.

Open Workout settings to set the default rest time, number of sets, weight and repetitions for new exercises. Leave optional fields empty if you prefer.

Enable exercise notes, partial repetitions or separate left and right sides. Completed exercises can move to the end. The checkmark saves your preferences.

Open Choose workout. Start an empty session or select an existing template. Here we use Plan One.

The green play button starts the workout timer. The blue stop button opens the finish screen.

The chevron beside Active time expands the active, paused and total times. Tap it again to collapse the details.

Tap the left button to pause. Tap it again to resume. Your pause time is tracked separately.

Each set has fields for weight and repetitions. Enter your values before checking the set off. Here we use forty kilograms and twelve repetitions.

The small chevron above the set checkboxes reveals the previous workout values. Tap again to hide them.

The blue seconds value changes the rest time for this exercise. The exercise image and info symbol open its instructions.

Check off a completed set to start the rest timer. Skip ends the countdown early. With the move-completed option enabled, a finished exercise moves to the end.

Tap the half symbol to show a separate partial-repetition field. Enter complete repetitions and partial repetitions in their own columns.

L slash R splits each set into left and right rows. Enter the weight, full repetitions and partial repetitions for each side separately.

Each side has its own checkbox. Here the left side is complete while the right side is still open.

Plus Set adds another set using the current values. The note field keeps a short reminder for the exercise. A bin removes the corresponding row.

The up and down arrows change exercise order. The bin beside an exercise removes it. The cross at the very top discards the session after confirmation.

Plus Exercise opens the selector. Search or filter by muscle group and equipment. Select an exercise, then tap Add.

The blue stop button opens Finish workout. Choose an intensity and add an optional note.

The info icon explains how intensity affects the estimated calories. Close it to return to your workout summary.

For this demonstration, we choose Light and add a short note. Finish workout saves the session.

Your saved session appears in Workout history. Open it to review the exercises, sets, repetitions, times and training volume.

The values and goals shown are examples of how to use the app. Features may vary by version and plan.
