Hevy supports multiple different set types. Users can choose from a regular set, drop sets, warm-up sets, and failure sets. You can easily change the set type within your workouts.
Set types and how to add them
Drop Sets
Drop sets are a resistance training technique in which you perform reps until failure, then drop the weight by a specific percentage and continue the reps without rest in between sets.
To add a drop set to a workout, tap the set number, then select ‘D-Dropset’
Important Note: If you add a rest timer to an exercise, the timer will not start if the next set is a dropset.
Warm-up Sets
Warm-up sets are lighter-weight sets used to prepare the body for heavy sets. They give the body the opportunity to warm-up and find proper form before completing heavier sets.
To add a warm-up set to a workout, tap the set number, then select ‘W - Warmup set”
Failure Sets
A failure set is a set in which you were not able to complete the final rep; you do as many reps as you can until failure.
To add a failure set, tap the set number, then select ‘F - Failure set’
Important Note: When logging a failure set, log the last completed rep, not the rep that you failed to complete.
Example: You were able to complete 13.5 reps, failing on the 14th rep. You would then log 13 reps.
At this time, you cannot add 0 as a rep value. If you failed on the first rep, you can add 1 or not log the set at all and make a note about the attempt for the next time you workout.
