Show Your Own Exercise Notes on the Gym Monster Screen

By Peter Fridrich · Published October 6, 2026 · 3 min read

In GM Manager you can write a private text note for any exercise. When that exercise comes up during your workout, the note appears on the Gym Monster screen automatically: a form cue, a tempo, a reminder of what to focus on today. It works because GMVoice is connected to your Gym Monster.

What you need

How to set a note on the web

  1. Open gm-manager.com and sign in.
  2. Find the exercise and click the note icon on it.
  3. Type your note in the editor and save it. A note can be up to 500 characters.
  4. Start the workout with GMVoice connected. When the exercise comes up, the note is on the Gym Monster screen.

Notes are private to you and a trainer you link. You can change or replace a note at any time, and the new text shows the next time that exercise comes up.

Let an AI agent write your notes

You do not have to type every note yourself. Notes can also be set through MCP or the API, or by the Coach in GM Manager. A Claude or Codex agent connected to your GM Manager can leave you a message for each training: what to focus on, what to keep in mind, or extra information about the exercise. The choice is yours: write it by hand, or let the agent do it.

How long can an exercise note be?

Up to 500 characters per exercise. The note is private to you and a trainer you link in GM Manager.

Can an AI agent write my exercise notes?
