Minimum Rep Threshold

Motra has a 3-rep minimum to prevent false detections. Lowering this may cause errors but can be adjusted in Settings if needed.

Motra's minimum rep threshold is the number of reps you must complete before auto-detection registers a set. By default, Motra has a minimum rep threshold of 3 reps. This means you must perform at least 3 reps of any given exercise for Motra to detect it.

We strongly recommend maintaining the minimum rep threshold at 3. Reducing this value will increase errors in exercise auto-detection.

This threshold minimizes accidental exercise detection. Common activities, such as drinking from a water bottle or bending over, can be mistaken for exercises like bicep curls or dumbbell deadlifts. To prevent this, Motra has set a minimum rep threshold.

How to Change the Minimum Rep Threshold

If you are training in low-rep ranges (e.g., 1 Rep Max) and want to track sets with 1 or 2 reps, you can change this minimum rep threshold by:

  1. Navigate to "Settings > Workout Settings > Auto-Detection Control."

  2. Find "Minimum Reps" and change the rep count as desired.

However, please be aware that setting a threshold below 3 will significantly increase erroneous detections.
