1.1.0 - A new design
Every screen in GolfBod has been redesigned. Same training engine, new clothes: a pine-black dark theme, a warm paper light mode, condensed scoreboard numerals for every weight, rep, and streak, and a new app icon.
New: Season
Program generation now asks where you are in your golf year, and the shape of your training week changes with the answer. Off-season weeks are built from heavy and moderate days for max strength (8-12 week blocks). Pre-season weeks turn power-heavy to convert strength into speed (4-8 weeks). In-season weeks keep one heavy day and run intentionally lighter around your rounds (4-8 weeks). Program lengths follow the season, and the app suggests a season from your golf calendar.
Screen by screen
-
Program: the phase timeline is now a course map. Your ball rolls to your current position as you complete workouts, phases color the fairway, and deloads appear as bunkers. Template cards show how many times you have trained each session.
-
Progress: a scorecard stat strip (streak, sessions, weekly average), a cleaner volume chart with the current week highlighted, a calendar of trained days, and redesigned personal record cards.
-
Activity: your history reads as a daily log with clearer marks for workouts, warm-ups, and records. The Events screen was rebuilt to match. The AI filter is now called Coaching.
-
Workout: the current exercise and active set are easier to spot, and each session opens with a colored bar showing its block structure.
-
Today, How It Works, Settings, onboarding, the warm-up flow, and the post-workout summary were all refined in the same pass.
-
iOS: frosted tab bar and a restyled lock-screen Live Activity.
Changes
- Dark mode is now the default for new installs. If you already chose a theme, your choice is unchanged.
Fixes
-
Completing a workout could fail to advance your program counter if the request failed or the session finished offline. Progress now reconciles automatically every time the app comes to the foreground, and past under-counts were corrected server-side.
-
Buttons could be hidden behind the tab bar on the Events screen and the Program tab's empty state.
-
Several low-contrast colors in light mode (How It Works icons, Progress pattern bars, week-complete text).
-
The feedback page opened with a pink accent instead of gold.
-
The rest-timer notification light on Android now matches the brand gold.
Added in later updates to 1.1.0
Safer starting weights, visible adjustments
-
Heavy days now explain themselves: more weight, fewer reps, and lowering a weight that is beyond you today is expected. The note appears when a heavy prescription has no logged history behind it yet.
-
The post-workout summary shows "Adjusted for next time": every weight the plan recalibrated from what you actually lifted this session.
-
Swapping an exercise mid-workout can now capture why: too heavy, equipment busy, discomfort, or just prefer it. Picking discomfort offers to lighten the rest of that exercise's sets today by 20%.
-
A one-time prompt now offers workout reminders once your program is ready, instead of waiting quietly on the Today screen.
-
During your first week, if every set of an exercise comes in well below the prescribed weight, the plan now corrects that exercise's starting weight downward right away. Previously it only corrected upward, which could carry a too-high starting estimate into your first heavy day.
Custom programs
-
Program Builder: create your own training programs and workout templates. They run on the same engine as GolfBod's generated programs, so starting weights, progression, and round-aware adjustments still apply.
-
Save any workout as a template and reuse it in future programs.
-
Replace a session in your current program with a saved template.
-
Program codes: share a program with an 8-character code. Whoever imports it gets their own copy, with the weights resolved to their own strength.
-
Building and running custom programs are part of GolfBod Pro. Importing a shared program is free.
