I · Build your plan
| Exercise | Muscle | Sets | Reps | Weight | Unit | RPE | Warm-up | Note | Actions |
|---|
Tip: duplicate a row (⧉) to give one exercise a second set-group — say, a heavy top set followed by back-off sets. Your draft is saved in this browser only; nothing is uploaded.
II · Import it into Herculog
- Download the CSV above, then get it onto your iPhone or iPad — save it to iCloud Drive / the Files app, AirDrop it, or email it to yourself.
- Open Herculog and go to Settings → Plans → Import Plans.
- Pick the file. Your plans are added to the library — existing plans are never touched, and a plan whose name already exists is skipped, so rename it if you're importing a revision.
- Run it. Open the Plan tab and work through your session set by set, checking each one off as you go.
Plan builder questions
Is the plan builder free?
Yes. The builder is free, needs no account, and runs entirely in your browser — nothing you type is uploaded anywhere. Drafts are saved locally in your browser so you can come back later.
How do I import the plan into the Herculog app?
Download the CSV, save it to the Files app on your iPhone or iPad (or AirDrop / email it to yourself), then open Herculog and go to Settings → Plans → Import Plans and pick the file. Imported plans are added to your library without touching existing plans.
Does it work with MyLiftLog?
Yes. Herculog is the new name for MyLiftLog — the CSV format is identical, so plans built here import into either version of the app.
Can I edit a plan I exported from the app?
Yes. Use Load CSV to open any plan file exported by the app (myliftlog_plans_….csv), edit it here, and download it again. The app skips imported plans whose name matches an existing plan, so rename the plan if you want the revised copy alongside the original.
What format is the plan file?
A plain CSV with one row per set-group and the columns plan, exercise, muscleGroup, metric, rpe, note, warmup, laterality, sets, reps, weight — the exact format the Herculog app exports and imports. You can open it in any spreadsheet.
