    Despite there being lots of information out there on how to train in the gym, I still get asked by beginners the same fundamental questions. I decided to build a tool that would allow them to create their own programs in a matter of seconds. I plan soon to create another tool that will rate the quality of these AI built workouts to help improve the programs over time.

    I made a weightlifting tracker app specifically for coders. In weightlifting, progressive overload is one of the most important parts of gaining muscle. You should constantly increase weights, reps, use different set schemes, and that will make your muscles grow. There're many weightlifting programs, using various overloading schemes - linear increasing of weights, some periodic ladder-up increase, switching to different set schemes in case of failures, etc. You can implement all of that in Liftosaur. It works this way: each exercise may define a bunch of variables, that could be changed…

    A very simple idea: when you eat more than your maintenance calories, you gain weight; when you eat less than your maintenance calories, you lose weight. By using an algorithm, we can accurately figure out your maintenance calories more accurately than traditional regression based formulas like katch mc ardle. It's way more accurate than calorie burn tracking devices like fitness bands and watches. (garmin/apple watch/whoop etc...) Traditionally, people often use static TDEE calculators which often over or underestimate for some by 100s calories. Chatgpt and TDEE calculators like…

    ARVO▲8

    Hey HN, I've been lifting for years and got frustrated with fitness apps that either (a) generate a static plan and forget about you, or (b) require manual logging with no intelligence. So I built Arvo—an AI personal trainer that adapts after every single set, not just at the start of your workout. Why 19 agents instead of one? Each handles a specific job: - Exercise Architect (selects movements based on equipment/goals) - Load Navigator (calculates weight adjustments based on RIR) - Volume Manager (tracks MEV/MAV/MRV per muscle group) - Pattern Scout (extracts insights from…
