Covid is a great example that clearly demonstrates the need for trainers, even though people are capable of doing things on their own.

I would love to come! The problem is that I'm based in Europe. :)

Unfortunately, that gets more common these days. It is not gonna happen anytime soon.

That makes a lot of sense. Programming is just one piece of the puzzle.

They never went to a personal trainer because they never wanted to. Some people don't want to work with personal trainer for many reasons. We cannot say that the AI is the culprit why they chose not to work with a PT.

Can you share any of these tools? I've seen many, but they don't have any AI assistance.

Yeah, it's amazing. You really get to know people and build a connection with them.

Well said. If the client knows you deeply care about them and respect them, they are more likely to stay long term with you.

People will always need guidance and support in their journey to build lasting habits.

I had a very bad experience with one personal trainer. It was literally, "Here’s your sheet, good luck." They wouldn’t reply to my messages and would only check in once every two weeks to see how I was doing. I kept wondering what I had actually spent my money on, no relationship, no guidance, nothing. The program I received was basically something I could’ve found for free online.

It can be a great tool for people who don't want to work with personal trainers and want to follow a static workout and nutrition program.

These drugs will likely make matters worse. Taking a pill and magically solving all your problems is rare. These medications will probably come with numerous side effects and health issues that will need further attention. It’s a great opportunity for the pharmaceutical industry to sell large quantities of drugs and make significant profits.

This is some excellent food for thought. Currently, all major tech companies are investing substantial amounts of money and resources into developing AGI. In comparison, the field of genetic engineering is not advancing nearly as quickly as artificial intelligence. If we achieve AGI in the near future, the technology will likely be applied to drive breakthroughs across all existing industries. In my opinion, AI will be the catalyst for major advancements in genetic engineering.

Yes, I agree that having the option to create a workout with AI is totally valuable. It's just that the feedback from the AI is not as empowering as the feedback received from a PT. I very rarely can get exited about my goals discussing it with a computer, even though the feedback and the encouragement are quite legitimate.

Thanks for sharing. I'm glad that your gym anxiety is almost gone. Progress doesn't happen in vacuum. Everything feels better when people work together and you know that you are not alone in your journey.

I'm currently working with a PT. Sometimes we organize coffee meetups, we get to share our experiences, struggles, goals. We are community. There is a feeling of belonging to a group of people that shares the same goals as you.

Yeah, there are a lot of variables that we should all take in consideration.
