New BETA import system: bring your training history into Strength Journeys
The biggest update this week is the new import system.
You can now import training data from other apps into Strength Journeys and explore it in preview mode before deciding what to do next. If you want to keep using it, you can save that imported history into Strength Journeys by creating a new linked Google Sheet or merging it into your existing one.
- More import support for exports from Hevy, Strong, BTWB, Wodify, plus CSV, XLS, and XLSX files.
- Preview mode so you can try Strength Journeys with imported data before committing to a full setup.
- Better save and merge flows for pushing imported history into your linked Google Sheet.
- Improved dedupe and reliability so merges are safer and repeat imports behave better.
- Clearer import/export UX with a more visible Import / Export entry point and better copy throughout the flow.
Also
: if you have exports from multiple fitness apps, you can ask Strength Journeys to transfer those exports into SJ for you. We can also merge data from different fitness apps into one Google Sheet so your training history lives in one place.Please report any bugs. If you have apps you want supported, please report - we want to support everything.
Log system improvements
The log got more polished, and now shows strength levels while you train. Very motivating!
- Strength levels now appear inside the log and update as you add or edit sets, so you can see where a session sits on the strength spectrum in real time.
- Tonnage and strength feedback update more smoothly during inline edits.
- A date picker was added to the log so it’s easier to jump to past training days.
- Historical session insertion was fixed so backdated entries land in the right place.
This is one of those features that feels small on paper but is very good in practice.
Remember you can still edit your google sheet yourself, or you can let Strength Journeys do it for you.

Other fixes and user-facing improvements
A lot of smaller user-facing improvements landed too:
- Barbell Strength Potential has been removed as a standalone page. That feature now lives inside the Lift Explorer and the big four progress guides - still a fun way to find easy rep scheme PRs.
- Progress Guides for the big four got improved with a clearer structure, better routing, and a dedicated section that’s set up to expand to more lifts soon.
- Strength levels pages were redesigned with cleaner navigation, cross-links, and clearer strict press naming.
- Strength badges throughout the app now link to detailed strength-level pages, making it easier to go from a quick rating to deeper context.
- Export system added, with a cleaner export section and improved CSV output including notes, labels, URLs. Your data is always yours.
