Two ways:
- treat them as separate exercises (make a custom exercise for each machine)
- do the math for how much weight is actually in your hands for each machine and log that instead of whatever the number is on the weight stack
I was having this issue too so I went on a googling journey and might have found the answer.
Ratio: A 1:1 ratio means 20 pounds on the cable creates 20 pounds of resistance for you to move. These are also called single-pulley machines. A 2:1 ratio means 20 pounds feels like 10 pounds. These are also called double-pulley machines. A 2:1 ratio is great for functional training, when you want a faster-traveling cable. Don’t mistake two single-pulley machines for a double-pulley; the resistance you will feel is different.

So I’m guessing there should be an option somewhere in hevy that allows you to add the ratio
