I was wondering if https://musclewiki.com/ was going to pop up. My wife had just sent it to me earlier this week. It lets you pick gender, muscle group, exercise type (stretch, bodyweight, barbell, dumbbells, kettlebells) and has detailed instructions and videos. (It does not have sets/reps like the shared site.) Perhaps they would be good to use in tandem. Personally, I think for sets/reps, it follows most exercise…

What I want is an app that screams at me like a drill sergeant: "Let's go, you got 10 more to go! Keep up!"
That's basically what Peloton, Apple Fitness, and whatever other competitors to those are.
Edit: tempo.fit seems interesting!
Interesting, I tried the create a routine but it required a login, that seems uncessary that early. Especially because I assume (since I can't easily check it now) that it can't be used to put together a routine for people who are just terribly out of shape.
The login is currently just an email token so you can edit your routines after they've been created. I am working on reducing the friction for this. Any suggestions?

Still working out the details. What I have in mind is something very similar to the routine database, but for recipes!
Interesting. I'll add my email. I have been working on an open-source, self-hosted recipe/calorie tracker dealy that my spouse and I have been using for macro tracking during weight training. Haven't put much effort in to "advertising" it but we have been using it quite successfully for a few months now. https://github.com/kcal-app/kcal EDIT: side note -- when signing up for the email the MailChimp landing page has a…
I'm very tempted to add mine which I would call "the lazy lifter: build a nice body with 4x30 minutes per week" (a very efficient, leangains-based routine). That said i'm very sad by the abscence of likes. What dopamine rush can i hope to get by contributing to your database :( ? Or at least comments.
Please do add it. I would really appreciate some more content! Yeah a like/ranking/comment system is something I'm thinking about. Any suggestions?

My of-the-top suggestion would be to put it at the end, that way there would be some value in it (as I would want to keep the routine going), and I can test-drive the editor first, to see if it makes sense to me.

Would _love_ to see a community sourced database of "explain it like I'm 5" translations. Example: What does "Bent Over Lateral Raise" mean? Show me? Lateral ... to what? I'm sure I can figure that out, but, for the newbies of the world it's another hurdle to keep them from actually starting/moving.
Oh, it's a lateral (vs rear) delt raise. That would have helped.
I'm way past 5yo and I do not understand.
Full disclosure though, it's kinda self-promotion because I've been developing [Hardy.app](https://www.hardy.app) with a friend for over a year now. It's free and we're adding more features all the time, check it out if interested. :)
They are all amazing
