What it does
Built out of frustration with bloated, overcomplicated gym apps that track everything except what actually matters — how recovered your muscles are. Valen maps real-time recovery across every muscle group using actual exercise science, so you know exactly what to train today. No social feeds. No streaks. No fluff. Just your body, your data, and what to do next.
Valen reads recovery, fatigue, balance, and performance so you know what is actually ready to train.
Valen maps your recovery across every muscle group, so you always know what to train, what to rest, and what's about to peak. Monday isn't chest day. Tuesday isn't legs. Your body doesn't care about your calendar. Valen tracks the Stimulus-Recovery-Adaptation cycle at the individual muscle level, so you train the right things at the right time. Every set logs direct load to the muscles it actually hit, adjusted for reps, weight, and effort. Recovery is continuous, not overnight. Your Core recovers differently than your Back. Valen models both. When a muscle peaks above baseline readiness, Valen tells you. That's when you push. Front delt. Lateral delt. Rear delt. Three muscles. Three…from valenapp.tech

ProximaApr 2026 · proximafitness.com · ▲77Despite 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.

Hi HN! I was super frustrated at apps like tiktok and wechat preventing me from saving or downloading the animated gifs, so I made a little tool to turn a screen recording into a slack-sized emoji. Hope you get some value from this!
