Hey thanks for your feedback, it’s really appreciated!

Since there’s interest, I’ll publish the source code to help others learn, and put the app on the App Store for those who just want to use it.

Regarding burpees and other types of motion, I’m looking into their motion characteristics, so that I can include them for detection.

Burpees would likely require recognizing different phases (the jump, the stand, the push, etc) and then when it detects them in sequence, incrementing the count. Something like that, but stay tuned! :)

WOW Murph Workouts! Respect. That is an awesome mission. I’d love to help.

That’s true, and since it’s only tracking head movement at the moment, some further refinements would be needed to account for good positioning. I’d like to develop it further to see what else this technique can recognize.

It’s called a gym buddy ;) Only half-joking. I found having someone spot you, count or just stay accountable is a game changer. Whether thats a friend, or a personal trainer, it's always more fun in company!

Oh awesome!! I was curious whether it was feasible to distill that kind of information from the Watch. Looking at this, apparently it is! Thanks for sharing.

Garmins are amazing! They are pretty much the de facto equipment for fitness.
