Version 5.9 - New metrics

What's new 🚨

New Performance Metrics
Eccentric power measures how aggressively you apply braking effort to decelerate the bar (perfect for drop catches), and time to peak velocity for tracking rate of force development on explosive movements.

Learn more about all available metrics at www.metric.coach/articles/metrics to see how these new tools can elevate your training analysis.

Expanded Real-time Feedback Options
‍Real-time feedback has been expanded to include a much wider range of metric options. You can choose from mean, peak, and propulsive velocity, plus for the first time power metrics including eccentric, mean, peak, and propulsive values for your audible in-set feedback. Configure your preferred metrics and feedback style in the feedback settings to get instant guidance that matches your training goals.

Tap to Focus Camera Control

Tap on your barbell and weight plates within the screen before starting your recording to set both focus and exposure exactly where you want them. This ensures your lifting videos are crisp and properly exposed every time.

Team Leaderboard
‍Coaches can now access a comprehensive team leaderboard that displays all your athletes' performance metrics in one place. Compare best lifts, power outputs, and estimated 1RMs across your entire roster to identify top performers and track team-wide progress. Access the leaderboard through your coaching dashboard to see how your athletes stack up and use the data to drive healthy competition within your team.

Apple Watch App
‍Metric now works directly on your Apple Watch, letting you log sets without reaching for your phone during active workouts. The watch app syncs seamlessly with your iPhone session, ensuring your workout data stays accurate and complete.

Device stability detection
‍Your phone now needs to be stable before recording can begin. An on-screen status pill shows whether your device is ready, needs to be held steady, or stood upright. Recording is disabled until the device is stationary and automatically stops if significant movement is detected mid-set.

Fullscreen video playback
‍Video playback can now be expanded to full screen with a tap. Includes a time scrubber, mute toggle, and your bar path and stats overlay — all carried over seamlessly between the mini player and expanded view.
