User Story
As a lifter,
I want to copy an existing mesocycle to create a new one,
So that I can keep exercises that work well for me while adjusting only what needs to change.
Background
Experienced lifters often want to iterate on their training programs rather than start from scratch each mesocycle:
- Keep what works: Certain exercises produce great results and should carry forward
- Swap what doesn't: Replace exercises that caused issues (joint pain, poor mind-muscle connection)
- Progressive programming: Slightly modify volume or exercise selection based on previous block's feedback
- Seasonal adjustments: Make minor tweaks for equipment availability or schedule changes
Currently, creating a new mesocycle requires configuring everything from scratch, even if 80-90% of the program would be identical to the previous one.
Acceptance Criteria
UI/UX Considerations
- Duplicate action should be accessible from:
- Mesocycle card menu (three dots / overflow menu)
- Mesocycle detail/edit view
- Clear indication that this creates a copy, not modifies the original
- Consider showing a brief "Copied from {name}" reference in the new mesocycle
- Toast notification confirming successful duplication
Technical Notes
- Core (free) feature - local-only operation
- New mesocycle gets a new unique ID
- Copy exercise references (exerciseId), not the exercises themselves
- Reset any workout history - new mesocycle starts fresh
- Consider whether to copy:
- ✅ Split configuration and exercises
- ✅ Mesocycle name (with suffix)
- ❌ Workout history/logs
- ❌ Start/end dates (user sets new dates)
- ❌ Completion status (always starts as not started)
User Flow
- User views their mesocycle list or a completed mesocycle
- User clicks "Duplicate" action
- New mesocycle is created with copied configuration
- User is taken to edit view of the new mesocycle
- User can:
- Rename the mesocycle
- Adjust exercises in any split day
- Remove/add exercises as needed
- User saves when ready
Out of Scope (for this issue)
- Merging multiple mesocycles
- Copying only specific split days between mesocycles
- Sharing/importing mesocycles from other users
- Version history or diff view between mesocycles
