Progressive

Minimalist progressive overload tracker for serious lifters

What it does

Most fitness apps are built for the widest possible audience. This one is not. It’s for lifters who already know what they’re doing and just want to: 1. track sets, reps, and weight 2. visualize progress over time 3. remove everything that doesn’t support overload Think “Notes app + charts,” built specifically for strength training.

    Liftosaur – Weightlifting tracker app for coders2023 · liftosaur.com · ▲26

    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…

    After talking to a lot of people about their exercise habits, we realized that one of the most popular apps for tracking workouts is actually the Notes app. Because most people’s interests and hobbies change, it’s very hard for a single type of exercise app (running, lifting, CrossFit, etc.) to remain useful to people over the long run. So we built Steddy: an exercise app with no videos, fitness models, or made up weight loss projections. Instead, planning and check-in is as simple as a well-designed todo app. Our goal is to make it as easy as possible to “deposit” your exercise each time…

    Hey HN! I wanted to share something I built over the last few weeks: isometric.nyc is a massive isometric pixel art map of NYC, built with nano banana and coding agents. I didn't write a single line of code. Of course no-code doesn't mean no-engineering. This project took a lot more manual labor than I'd hoped! I wrote a deep dive on the workflow and some thoughts about the future of AI coding and creativity: http://cannoneyed.com/projects/isometric-nyc
