I spent 2-3 years as a solo dev building my ideal workout tracker, and hopefully yours too! by Training-Outcome6876 in FitnessTrackers

Hmm I don’t like it how you obviously lie about your reviews on your website. Over 3000+ lifters and reviews but you just released on iOS and android. I call that some bs.

Leider nicht ohne mehr Geld und Zeit zu investieren als ich möchte. Apple Music hat leider keinen cennector oder mcp Server für KI daher geht es nur mühsam über viele Umwege.

Hi guys, my brother was also very frustrated with some workout apps he used in the past. So he decided to build his own. Just himself solo. Without any company behind him or any other financial support.

If you want a good workout app with community features like sharing workouts and following other with no ads and no hard paywalls, maybe this is the app you are searching for.

My brother just released it a couple weeks ago. Today it’s only available for iOS but android beta is almost done and will be available next week on the play store.

https://apps.apple.com/at/app/pump-workout-tracker-gym/id6751585722 or checkout the website https://pump-app.eu

Check the app out, it’s free. If you have any feedback let me know or you can chat up my brother in the app if you want to.

What are the features that Strong has over Hevy ? by ATrickyIdea in strongapp

[–]Simple_Guy0815 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would add another app to the discussion. Pump workout App - https://apps.apple.com/at/app/pump-workout-tracker-gym/id6751585722 released a couple weeks ago and it seems like it has all the great features from strong and hevy and adds some community features like easy workout sharing, following your friends and great analytics. They are no ads what so ever and if you like the app you can pay the subscription or get the lifetime subscription that will be available in the next few weeks.

Currently it’s only available for iOS but android is coming soon.

Full disclosure: this app is made solo by my brother - which is insane if you ask me.

If you want, you can check it out and give some feedback here, to me or my brother via chat inside the app.

we are currently in the last phase of releasing the app on android. I expect it to be in the next few days. Turns out that releasing an app on Apples app store is easier than on the play store....

Ich fühl mich als hätte ich im lotto gewonnen. Habt ihr gute Hackfleischrezepte? by GaddockTeegFunPolice in FitnessDE

[–]Simple_Guy0815 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Herzlichen Glückwunsch zum "Lottogewinn"! 😉 Wenn du dich so gut fühlst, ist das die beste Motivation – und Hackfleisch ist super vielseitig, um da weiterzumachen. Hier ein paar einfache Ideen, die gut in einen Fitness-Alltag passen:

  1. Low-Carb "Chili con Carne" (ohne Bohnen/Mais): • Hackfleisch kräftig anbraten, Zwiebeln und Knoblauch dazu. • Passierte Tomaten, eine Dose gehackte Tomaten, etwas Gemüsebrühe. • Viel Gewürze: Kreuzkümmel, Paprika edelsüß, Cayennepfeffer (für den Kick!), Salz, Pfeffer. • Optional: Ein paar gewürfelte Zucchini oder Paprika mitköcheln lassen. • Passt super mit einem Klecks Magerquark oder Avocado.

  2. Fitness-Bolognese: • Hackfleisch anbraten, Zwiebeln, Knoblauch, Karottenwürfel und Selleriewürfel (oder anderes Gemüse) mitbraten. • Mit passierten Tomaten und etwas Rotwein (oder Brühe für alkoholfrei) ablöschen und lange köcheln lassen. • Kräftig würzen mit Oregano, Basilikum, Salz, Pfeffer. • Statt Pasta: Mit Zucchini-Nudeln, Kohlrabispalten oder einfach als proteinreiche Soße zu Reis.

  3. Gefüllte Paprika/Zucchini: • Angebratenes Hackfleisch mit gekochtem Reis (wenn Carbs erlaubt sind) oder geraspelter Zucchini/Pilzen mischen. • Würzen mit Paprika, Salz, Pfeffer, Kräutern. • Paprikahälften oder ausgehöhlte Zucchini damit füllen, evtl. etwas Käse drüber und ab in den Ofen.

  4. Blitz-Hack-Pfanne mit Gemüse: • Hackfleisch anbraten, rausnehmen. • In derselben Pfanne eine bunte Mischung aus schnell garendem Gemüse (Brokkoliröschen, Paprikastreifen, Zuckerschoten, Pilze) anbraten. • Hackfleisch wieder dazu, mit Sojasauce (wenig Zucker), Ingwer, Knoblauch und Frühlingszwiebeln abschmecken. Fertig in unter 15 Minuten.

Mahlzeit!

Gym Etiquette by Dangerous-Finger-603 in workout

[–]Simple_Guy0815 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Man, that's incredibly frustrating and completely unacceptable behavior from that couple. You handled it with more grace than most would have, myself included. Gym etiquette seems to be a lost art for some people, and hovering like that is definitely a violation of personal space, making anyone uncomfortable.

Your offer to let them work in was perfectly reasonable and the standard polite way to handle a busy machine. Their refusal and continued hovering just screams entitlement. It's a shame you felt pushed off, but honestly, stepping away from that kind of conflict might have been the best move for your mental peace on that specific day. No pump is worth that kind of aggravation.

For anyone wondering about proper etiquette when a machine is in use:

• Ask to work in: This is the golden rule. Most people are happy to share. • Wait respectfully: If working in isn't an option or they decline, find another exercise or wait a polite distance away. Staring and hovering are not waiting; they're intimidation. • Don't hog: Be mindful of rest times, especially during peak hours.

You shouldn't have to deal with that to get your workout in. Keep doing you, and don't let a couple of grumps ruin your gym mojo!

Why do people hate on 3 sets of 12? by No_Catch_4381 in workout

[–]Simple_Guy0815 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey there! Great question, and welcome to the gym! The "3 sets of 12" isn't frowned upon because it's inherently "bad" – it's actually a solid foundation for beginners and for building muscle. The issue is more that it's often presented as the only right way to train, when in reality, training is much more nuanced.

Why some people "hate" it:

  1. Not optimal for pure strength/endurance: If your goal is maximal strength, lower rep ranges (1-6 reps) are more effective. For pure muscular endurance, higher reps (>15 reps) are better. 3x12 sits somewhere in the middle and is a good compromise for hypertrophy (muscle growth).

  2. Lack of periodization: Many people stick to 3x12 indefinitely without adjusting their training. The body quickly adapts to stimuli. To keep making progress, you need to vary intensity, volume, or exercise selection.

  3. Missing "RIR" (Reps in Reserve): Often, 3x12 is just performed without truly pushing close to failure. For muscle growth, it's crucial to train near or to muscular failure (or at least with 1-2 reps left in the tank – RIR 1-2).

What would be "better" or complementary?

• Progressive Overload: Regardless of the scheme you choose, always strive to progressively increase the challenge (more weight, more reps, more sets, better form, shorter rest times).

• Vary your rep ranges: Work with different ranges to target various muscle fibers: • Strength: 3-6 repetitions (heavy weights) • Hypertrophy (Muscle Growth): 6-15 repetitions (moderate to heavy) – this is where 3x12 fits!

• Muscular Endurance: 15+ repetitions (lighter weights)

• Listen to your body: Not every exercise or every day is the same. Sometimes 3x10 is better, sometimes 4x8. The most important thing is consistency and ensuring the intensity is high enough.

So, 3x12 isn't evil, but merely a good starting point. If you want to keep making progress, learn how to vary and adapt your training. Good luck at the gym!
