  1. 1

    Hey HN, I’m Alex, a triathlete, dad, and software engineer. I’ve been building Transition — an app for triathletes that creates adaptive training plans based on your goals, schedule, and workout data (Garmin, Strava, etc). Most plans are static, which never really worked for me as a parent and someone with an unpredictable schedule. Transition adjusts every week using your actual workouts and progress, so the plan changes when you miss a session, set a new PR, or need to shift your priorities. I built this because nothing else was flexible enough for my life, and I’m curious if others have…

    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…

    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…
