Cardio & daily steps

Log cardio sessions, daily steps, and rest days alongside your strength training.

verxion tracks more than just lifting. Cardio sessions, daily steps, and rest days feed the same analytics so your full training load is visible in one place.

Logging cardio

Cardio sessions stand alone — they don’t need a routine to attach to.

"Logged 35 minutes on the bike, easy pace, 350 kcal"
"Ran 8 km in 42 minutes, zone 2"
"30 minutes incline walk on the treadmill"

verxion captures activity type, duration, distance, calories, and zone or pace if you give it. The cardio is added to your week’s volume and surfaces in cardio trend analytics.

Daily steps

Steps are tracked separately from cardio sessions — they’re NEAT, not training.

"Logged 12,400 steps for today"
"Yesterday was 8,500"

You can update today’s steps multiple times — verxion stores the latest value, not the sum.

Rest days

Rest days are explicitly logged so streaks and adherence reflect intent.

"Today is a rest day"
"Logged yesterday as a planned rest day"

Without an explicit rest day log, a missed training day counts as “missed” in your adherence numbers. Logged rest days count as “on plan.”

Daily stepsNEAT, daily totals (separate from training volume)
Rest daysAdherence calculation, streak preservation

Combining with strength training

A typical week mixes all three:

  • Strength sessions (logged via Sessions)
  • 1-3 cardio sessions
  • Daily steps (every day)
  • Rest days marked explicitly

Ask your agent “how does the week look so far?” and verxion rolls everything up — sets, kcal, steps, sessions — into one summary.
