Thank you! Really appreciate.

Hey thanks a lot.

If you have specific trackers or APIs in mind, feel free to share would love to hear more about your use case. Strava/Garmin/Apple? What do you want to see in workout.cool : hearthbeat, steps, .. ?

Thanks mate!

Right now, it's a mix of both let's say.

first, local storage during the session (useful for example in gyms, garages, or basements with poor or no connectivity)

second, syncs with the backend once the session ends and if failed, periodically.

For the tracking, the idea is to eventually generate progress graphs, track "volume" over time, and visualize trends for each exercise or muscle group.

More to come on that front :D

Yes. Planning to add difficulty levels and progression-friendly alternatives (e.g. pike push-ups, dumbbell presses, etc.) so you can train the same muscle group at your current level with the same button as you can see "Shuffle".

I can imagine some "Decrease difficulty" button. (or inverse).

Appreciate the feedback

Just jumping in here to feed my ego :D

after 15 years of lifting, I'm currently pushing 4x10 with 50kg dumbbells on the bench. So yeah, 35kg after 25 years seems odd unless those 25 years weren't exactly "serious" or "consistent" let's say.

No judgment, but yeah

I felt the same way when workout.lol went quiet! really pushed to rebuild something that would last without video licensing issues this time.

So welcome back glad to have you with us again :) !

We recently (a few hours ago) switched providers to handle the traffic/databse better.

Everything should be back to normal now

Really appreciate your patience and thanks again for giving the app a try and sorry again guys.

Thanks for flagging that and sorry you're running into login issue mate.

That error can sometimes appear even after a password reset due to a session mismatch (I'm working on improving that flow this afternoon).

In the meantime, you can try logging in with Google? it should work smoothly and skip the password altogether...

Thanks for sharing. I actually didn't know about Liftosaur before, but I just checked it out and I love their UI! Super clean and well thought out.

Definitely going to keep it in mind.

Thanks for the discovery

Awesome move from Stronger By Science

That said, they're mostly full training programs i guess, while what Workout.cool or the old Workout.lol project needs is more at the "individual exercise level" let's say. Videos, metadata, structure, etc.

If they ever open-source a library of exercise videos with clear licensing, that could definitely help yep

You're very welcome mate:)

The error should be fixed, thanks for the screenshot mate. As a digital nomad, i totally hear you on the traveling with bands situation and yeah, repeating the same 3 workouts gets old reeeeally fast.

One of the goals with Workout.cool is to offer more "variety" and inspiration let's say. Planning to add 5 to 10 exercices per week.

Ahahah hell yeah! Nerds with routines, spreadsheets and gains let's keep pushing both code and plates

Honestly, I think it's also tied to growing awareness around how much time we all spend sitting. Yesterday i was sitting 19h.

More devs and tech folks are realizing that staying active is kind of essential if we want to feel good and stay "sharp" long-term let's say.

Glad you liked the videos

And yes, you're totally right: having a searchable, complete list of exercises is something. We are working on it. The current experience is a bit too "filter-dependent" let's say and I want to make exploration more "flexible".

Thanks for the feedback it's definitely coming soon!

Thanks for the suggestion, yeap their resources are definitely solid for beginners

That said, I'm not sure how directly it would help in the context of Workout.cool, can you provide more context ?

Maybe when adding structured training plans? is that the kind of use case you had in mind?

Would love to hear how you think it could fit! Thanks
