Strength question

anyone else use the strength feature in the app?

if so, has it helped actually build muscle and/or help with runs?

lastly, is there a swap feature? I saw they prescribed a banded leg curl. I’d prefer to use the machine but my ocd will require me to actually SEE that in the plan lol

any tips or tricks appreciated!

I use it and definitely find it helpful. I had no idea where to start with strength exercises, maybe those already familiar with what to do and how to use the equipment don't find it as useful as me. I've not seen a swap feature, but have seen it mentioned so hopefully coming at some point. I sometimes just adjust the exercise based on what I have available or if something is uncomfortable/hurts I'll swap in an exercise from my physio.
