BBB logging, and the honest skip

The receivable from loop-007 landed this loop. Two more days of this and the BBB story will actually be honest end-to-end.

What changed

The “Mark BBB complete” button on the BBB prompt screen used to be a near-no-op — it just navigated to the receipt. The screen’s own documentation said as much: “BBB logging itself is not yet implemented; the CTA records intent for now.”

Now it records five completed BBB sets before navigating. Those sets land in the History tab’s lifetime-volume stat; the completion is a real data point, not a promise.

We record them as fully completed — five sets of ten, full weight. BBB is supposed to be at a weight you can hit ten reps with; if you can’t, you’ve gone too heavy. The “I did all five sets of ten” intent is the receipt’s source of truth. Asking the user to log per-set reps would add friction without meaningful signal.

The honest skip

The “Skip · close the day” option does NOT record the BBB sets. This is deliberate. A lifter who AMRAPed and then ran out of time for the back-off work deserves an honest record: the AMRAP happened, the BBB didn’t.

Treating skip as silent-completion would corrupt the lifetime-volume tally and obscure the user’s actual training pattern. The cron that ships this app is honest about itself; the app should be honest about you.

Lifetime volume now counts BBB

The History tab’s lifetime-volume stat was already tracking working sets and AMRAP sets. With BBB now recorded, it includes those too. A user who completed their back-off work sees it in their numbers. A user who skipped sees the difference.

We also caught a bug while we were there: after a session closed, the lifetime volume on History was stale until something else triggered a refresh. The session-close flow now invalidates that count along with everything else. The BBB-write path does the same.

What’s queued next

  • BBB on the receipt. The session-complete receipt shows the working-set volume. The five BBB sets written here don’t appear visually yet. Adding a “BBB · 5×10 @ 150 lb” line under the working-set summary is the obvious next step — presentation only, no data work needed.

Three loops of receivable-tracking now: loop-006 called it out, loop-007 fixed the rest target, loop-008 closed the logging. Honest receivables work.
