Import your history
Switching from Hevy or Strong?
Bring your workouts with you. Nuvela reads the CSV export from Hevy or Strong, so your records, progress and next weights build on the training you have already done.

2 · In Nuvela
Choose the file
- Open the You tab
- Tap Import workouts
- Tap Choose CSV file
You see what comes in before anything is saved. Then tap Import.
Menu names in other apps can change with their updates. If yours look different, look for “Export” in that app’s settings.
What comes in
- Every workout in the file, with its date, exercises, sets, weights and reps. Drop sets and failure sets count. Cardio comes in with its time and distance.
- Exercise names are matched to Nuvela’s exercise library. You check close matches, and pick or leave out any exercise it doesn’t know.
- Your progress, records and next weights build on them from the first day.
What stays behind
- Warm-up sets. Nuvela logs your work sets.
- Notes and effort ratings (RPE). They are read past and never stored.
- Workouts already in Nuvela, so nothing is doubled.
- If your history is very long, the newest workouts come in first and the oldest stay in your export.
One Strong export layout doesn’t say whether weights are in kilograms or pounds. When that happens, Nuvela asks you.
Common questions
Is my file uploaded anywhere?
No. Nuvela reads the file on your phone. The workouts it brings in are saved like any workout you log: on your phone, and to your Nuvela account when you’re signed in, so they move with you to a new phone.
What if I import the same file twice?
Workouts that are already in Nuvela are skipped, so importing again only adds what is new. A newer export from the same app works the same way.
Do my routines come over too?
The export holds your finished workouts, not your routines or templates, so those stay behind. Your history is what gives Nuvela your records and your next weights.
Do imported workouts count toward badges and milestones?
No. They show in your history and progress, and your records build on them, but badges and milestones count only workouts done in Nuvela.
Can I undo an import?
Yes. Open an imported workout in your history and tap Delete. You can do that for any of them.
