4.3. Editing a Workout
You can edit a workout by tapping on it in the Journal view.

hold it in the Journal and select Delete Workout.
4.5. Copying a Workout
To add an exercise similar to one you’ve completed, go in the Journal, touch-and-hold the
past workout and select Copy Workout. You will be prompted for the date of the new

All exercises or intervals will be copied as well.
4.6. Adding your Own Activities
MySportTraining comes with one strength training activity (“strength training”) and a
variety of cardio activities (“aerobics”, “road cycling”, etc.). Not only can you edit those
activities, you can also create your own, for the following reasons:
 Add an activity not listed, with a specific icon and color.
 Customize the calorie consumption.
 Add a type of workout for a given activity. For example “Lower Body” instead of
“Strength training”, or “Interval Training” instead of “Road cycling”. Doing so
helps you identify which type of workout you did (in the calendar and charts), and
it makes data entry easier. When you add a workout, MySportTraining looks at
the last workout of the same activity and adds all the exercises/intervals you were
entered. So if you create a Upper Body and Lower Body activities, and enter
workouts with specific exercises for each of them, every time you add a workout,
get the exercises for that activity i.e. you do not have to re-enter them every time.
Find more about this in section 4.7.
Add Custom Activities
When adding a workout you must first choose an activity from the Choose an Activity
screen. Press MENU to add your own (see Figure 16).
 Enter a name e.g. Lower body
 Choose between Strength and Cardio. Strength allows you to enter exercises,
Cardio allows you to enter route and laps/intervals.
 Enter the amount of calories you burn in 30 minutes at a sustained intensity
(which is hard breathing where you cannot talk much, but not exhausting).
MySportTraining will then be able to precisely calculate the calories you burnt
when you enter a workout for that activity, based on the duration and exertion
(light, moderate, sustained, strenuous, exhausting).
 Select an icon and its color.
