    I never really thought of self hosting something like this. Does it have the ability to recommend routines for you? It would be cool to be able to give it a list of equipment, maybe a schedule, and have it recommend workouts you can do to effectively use your time.

    There's only a very limited set of exercises. It's not rocket science.

    There are also many professionally built workout routines online accessible for free.

    Stuff that you pay for can't get better than theirs.

      I want to try it out... but the smell test is off: Land on the github and it proudly proclaims the author is not doing this for money, only to help the community! Awesome right? Scroll down a little more to project history... and the first version he created and got bored with and sold. Ok... well let's click on the website link to actually see what this looks like before cloning and installing... and the first thing I am hit with is join a premium subscription.

      I'm not against making money, we all have to - but please don't act like it's "not about the money" and then make it about the money.

        Correct, but being able to programmatically make the recommendation is computer science.

          Sure and assuming you want a professional routine, you always end up with the same exercises, depending on the frequency of your training and split.

          Maybe my mind is too narrow in this regard to see a benefit in it, sorry

            I'd say too narrow, goals vary between people greatly, and the routine you'd use for general fitness will be different than the one you'd focus on as a runner or cyclist, and different than someone focusing on support muscles for back or knee pain, or to lose weight.

            Its also good to change the routine over time, to change the angle and movement patterns, etc.

              All those goals are fixed and for neither of them is a "random" routine good.

              Users should be able to create and share/follow routines.

              I would not want to rely on a random routine for my injury. Do you think tgat's a good idea?

              Having an ai to tell me when to switch angle sounds overkill to me. I'd switch angles if I have to hit the muscle differently or just whenever I want to. Both situations don't require an ai to do that, right?

                I dont think I said "random", but a randomized routine that meets criteria absolutely works, and you dont need AI for that. I dont think anyone said "AI" at all until you just now either.

                Detecting plateau isn't too hard either, which is when you would get a suggestion to change an exercise or set of exercises in a routine, or a new routine. Which is where change of angle comes in - its about the exercise being performed.

                Can someone do it themselves? Sure, it just takes more work. Which is kind of the point here - you can make a list of exercises that hit a muscle or muscle group just fine without software, which is what this software does. The next logical step is a system that handles routine options, too.

                Even with consistent goals you need to change your routine around.

                Edit: and if you're injured, you should be meeting with a doctor/pt for any workout information. No system is going to know how to deal with that sensibly.

                  You're right. I'm not sure where I got that from. Seems weird to me now as well. As if I was replying to the wrong comment, sorry for that.

                  Ot's true what you say on the other part ๐Ÿ™‚

                    This project was born from a personal mission to revive and improve upon a previous fitness platform. As the primary contributor to the original workout.lol project, I witnessed its journey and abandonment. ๐Ÿฅน

                    This and other bits from the readme makes it seem that the author was just as burned by the previous project selling out imo
