Switch from Fitbod without losing your history
Take your Fitbod history with you, warm-up sets included.
How to export from Fitbod
- Open Fitbod and go to your profile and its settings.
- Choose the option to export your workout data.
- Fitbod sends the CSV to your share sheet or email.
- Upload the file from Settings, under Import your history.
- The weight column is named for its unit, so a file in kilograms or in pounds both import correctly.
- Fitbod writes a time on every set. Sets that share a time are read as one workout.
What comes across
- Every set: weight, reps, and the time and distance of cardio
- Warm-up sets, kept as warm-up sets
- Your notes, kept on the workout
What your export cannot carry
- Fitbod exports carry no RPE, superset or drop-set grouping, so that structure does not come across.
- Incline, resistance and the per-hand multiplier have no field here, so they are left out.
Each of these comes from the export file's own format. Anything the file does not contain is reported to you in the preview rather than filled in.
What imported data counts for
Your history, personal records, charts and analytics come with you. Ranks, XP and achievements are earned here, so imported sessions never move them.
Ranks, XP, achievements, streaks and leaderboards count only what you log here, so an imported spreadsheet can't put anyone at the top of a board. Everything that describes your training rather than scoring it, which is your history, your personal records, your charts and your analytics, uses your imported data from day one.
How the import works
Upload a CSV file and nothing is written yet. You get a preview first: how many rows of each kind, the date range they cover, which names matched automatically, and which need a decision from you.
When you approve it, the rows are written and stamped as part of that import. If a day already has an entry you made yourself, your own entry wins and the imported row is skipped, and the skip is counted and shown rather than quietly dropped.
Changed your mind? One button removes every row that import created and leaves everything else alone. You can upload the same file again months later too. Rows that already exist are skipped instead of duplicated, so you only ever gain what is new.
Your file, and how long we keep it
The uploaded file is stored privately for a short retention window so an import can be retried, then deleted. Undo keeps working after that, because it is keyed to the import rather than the file. Your account holds the data, and you can export it or delete your account at any time.
Frequently asked
- Will my Fitbod warm-ups stay warm-ups?
Yes. Fitbod marks them in the export, and they arrive as warm-up sets rather than counting toward your working volume.
- Can I keep using Fitbod while I switch?
You can. Importing leaves your Fitbod account as it is. Upload the same file again later and rows that already exist are skipped, so you only gain what is new.
- Can I undo an import?
Yes. Every row an import writes is stamped with that import, so one button removes all of it and leaves anything you logged yourself untouched. You can also upload the same file again later. Rows that already exist are skipped rather than duplicated.
