Currently it is only possible to select easier skills when you are looking for an alternative exercise.  
It would be great if we could also pick the tougher exercises / further progressions.

For example, the default pullup exercises are the kipping ones.. I want to replace them with strict, chest to bar or whatever, but this is impossible.

a workaround is the exclude those “too easy” exercises from coach settings. (this is what i did for pullups)
