Is it possible to rename LesMills workouts?

[Kickgoals]

I’ve been using the Fitbit premium app for over a month and I feel it’s not quite delivering to its face value. 
It is very frustrating not being able to rename workouts, especially when Les Mills is offered as a premium feature but does not have a match in the exercise list. It would be great being able to manually rename the generic “workouts” so you remember which specialty you took whether it’s Pump or Bodyattack. Ideally you should be able to create your own exercise name list to quickly rename exercises. Also being able to make notes on the exercise to record locations, physical performance ect… in addition in regards to the monthly exercise view it would be good to have an actual calendar with dates and being able to hover on the checked box to be able to see what exercise was done on the day instead of scrolling down the list to find it. I hope these are changes that can be implemented soon as other fitness apps offer it.

Anyone should be able to rename the generic "Workout" and any auto detected exercises.

Hi there,

Thanks for your reply.
I think you are probably referring to the desktop version of the app, because on iOS phone the pencil is not there. I can only rename changing to one of the pre existing workout shortcuts. Could you please provide more details about how to do it on the phone app?
Thanks for the assistance.

@Kickgoals Thank you for getting back. 

I've updated the instructions provided before as they might differ to Android users. It should be "Categorize Exercise", check the screenshots below: 

Hope this helps.

Dear Silviafitbit,

Thanks for your prompt reply.

Under “categorise” I can only choose one of the pre-existing exercise shortcuts, I cannot type anything of my choice. Please advise if this is what you meant because the suggestion reported was about being able to customise and this does not address it.

@Kickgoals Thank you for getting back. 

Take into consideration that you will be able to categorize the activities by using one of the exercises on the Fitbit database. If you'd like to create a custom activity and then use it to rename the ones you're doing, follow these steps: 

- Go to your online Dashboard 

- Tap on Log > Activities 

- Scroll down until you see "Activities" 

- Select "Create Custom Activity" 

- Enter the name and next time you want to use it, just type the name 

Hope this helps.
