Would be cool to see some sort of difficulty/strength setting as I'm definitely not able to do handstand push ups to train my shoulders. ;)
I can imagine some "Decrease difficulty" button. (or inverse).
Appreciate the feedback
Love seeing open-source takes on things like this. Curious how you’re handling progress tracking over time are you storing data locally or syncing with a backend?
Right now, it's a mix of both let's say.
first, local storage during the session (useful for example in gyms, garages, or basements with poor or no connectivity)
second, syncs with the backend once the session ends and if failed, periodically.
For the tracking, the idea is to eventually generate progress graphs, track "volume" over time, and visualize trends for each exercise or muscle group.
More to come on that front :D
Hi, congrats for workout.cool I really like that it lets you build workout plans and track progress, super useful for my projects. It would be great if it also had a way to sync with wearables or import data from fitness trackers in the future. Keep it up! Thanks
If you have specific trackers or APIs in mind, feel free to share would love to hear more about your use case. Strava/Garmin/Apple? What do you want to see in workout.cool : hearthbeat, steps, .. ?
that's a really cool project! thanks for sharing!

I think most important thing is calories consumed not fats and sugars, etc as it's simple the less you consume the less weight you can take on. Having smart glasses automagically telling u how much your consuming for each meal & total caloric daily intake via audio or visually within the glasses i think would be powerful! Majority of people have no idea how much they consume and I'm betting they consume anywhere betw…
I think you are missing the point. I am saying that a smart glass or AI will be unable to tell the amount of calories with any reasonable level of accuracy because fats (oil for example) are the most calorie dense while also the most invisible in pictures. And even a tiny bit of inaccuracy in this measurement is enough to put one from a calorie deficit (losing weight) to calorie surplus (gaining weight).
As for and noted I eat out always a health-ish chains. The AI is getting the info directly from their sites, so taking a pic the AI knowing my location/what restaurant and matching it with pics restaurants post ..it will be seamless vs. having to now pull out my phone and tell GPT or take a pic.

Open source just means the source code is available. It doesn't mean you can legally use it. That is, in fact, the whole point behind the most famous open source license, GPLv3: code is open source, but there are still restrictions on how you can use the code. I don't know about now (most projects I work on are MIT-licensed, these days), but there was rancor around the move from v2 to v3 because v3 was more restricti…
'source available' means the source code is available. Open source comes with a whole set of guarantees [1] about free redistribution and derived works. Copyleft licenses like the GPL come with extra guarantees that do not violate the core guarantees of open source software. Instead, they make them stronger. The 'restrictions' GPL imposes essentially boil down to this: "if you use (parts of) GPL software, you must gi…
Oh funny to see it here. I'm the original author of workout.lol. I sold the app to a guy who seemed to just abandoned it. I also texted him multiple times if he needs support, but he didn't answer anymore. It makes me really happy to see it being maintained again! Great work on the UI improvements.
This is SO COOL!!! I’ve been working on an automated calendar scheduling api that integrates with Apple CalDAV (iCal) that lets you schedule your life around goals (it uses Google OrTools to solve a great big CP-SAT constraint model blazing fast, a year in under 5 seconds), along with meal planning around macro goals. I knew I wanted to integrate a workout/training plan system but had no idea what component I’d end u…
