# Enhanced Guided Workouts, Better Progress Tracking & New Challenges **By Andy Hoang · Published October 27, 2023 · Updated April 28, 2025** **Tags:** AVIRONSOFTWARE Aviron's October 2023 software update introduces revamped Guided Workouts, an improved Workout History page, Time Machine front-and-center placement, new Power Plays, new Structured Programs, a Monthly Challenge, multiplayer friend-adding, and an Achievements Page. --- ## Our October Update Is Full of Treats October's update brings new features, upgrades, and improvements to the Aviron rower experience. Community feedback directly shaped this month's changes, focusing on updates and improvements designed to make exercise more fun and engaging for everyone. --- ## Revamped Guided Workouts The Guided Workouts experience has been reimagined with a sleeker, more modern visual design, plus new features for a richer and more interactive workout session. ### A Better, Smarter Dashboard The updated dashboard is designed to keep you motivated throughout your workout. A fuel tank visual fills up as you move closer to the finish line, showing your progress in real time and encouraging you to keep going. ### Stay on the Right Track A new rowing indicator provides real-time feedback on your rhythm. When your rhythm slips, the indicator turns red, reminding you to get back on track and maintain a steady tempo. --- ## New and Improved Workout History Page The Workout History page has received a major upgrade to improve tracking and post-workout insights, giving users a clearer view of weekly and monthly fitness progress. ### Calendar View Feature Calendar View organizes your entire workout history in one place. You can check your daily Output, Time, and Metrics with ease, providing a full picture of your fitness journey. ### Weekly Progress Tracker A new Comparison Graph lets you see week-to-week improvements at a glance, showing how your efforts are paying off over time. --- ## Bringing Time Machine Front and Center Time Machine has been moved to the home screen for easier access. Time Machine allows you to compete against a "ghost" from past rowing sessions — your own or a friend's — making it useful for pushing workouts further and hitting personal milestones. --- ## More Updates in October - **Two new Power Plays:** Pulsewave and Rhythm Madness — new challenges and more thrilling experiences. - **Two new Structured Programs:** Back 2 Business and Ready. Set.
