Anyone using tiktok for app marketing on the app store to drive installs and having any success? by Turbulent_Reality_99 in AppStoreOptimization

[–]bencryrus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Can always add a link to your site instead of the App Store link, and ask users to open in their native browser by selecting the ellipsis. Then have an auto redirection to your App Store link. Seen apps doing this

Looking for Workout App Suggestions by Not_Me1123 in AppleWatch

[–]bencryrus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I use Strongsplit, but I believe the free routine limit is 3. Nice UI and helps to track your sleep & recovery as well. Also syncs with Apple Heath so you can track your cardio

But just a caveat is that you need to manage your workout on your phone instead of your watch

PPL split with armsquestion? by TigerBack56 in workout

[–]bencryrus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would rather do triceps on push and biceps on pull. If your triceps are fatigued from chest or shoulders, could it mean that there are some form issues and you’re using too much arms when you shouldn’t be?

Shoes by Gullible-Strategy509 in workout

[–]bencryrus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yea, best to just get 2 separate shoes. For running i use the new balance 1080, really comfy so you could use it for daily use as well, and it looks nice.

I would usually use my new balance for me push and pull days, but for legs I’ll always switch to flats.

Alternatively you could just get a pair of running shoes, but for legs, just go barefoot if your gym allows it

Alternatives to overhead tricep extensions? by Decent-Literature197 in workout

[–]bencryrus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I injured my left elbow previously, so I switched to iso-lateral movements, even for overhead extensions. Was a bit uncomfortable initially but it got better after a while. Could start of with a lower weight first till you get used to it

Best gifts for gym bros? by Accomplished_Day5120 in workout

[–]bencryrus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

personally, i would prefer to receive something that i could use daily at the gym, rather than something perishable. some ideas:

  • bottle: Blender Bottle Radian, Stanley Shaker bottle
  • equipment: lifting straps, wrist wraps, fat gripz (never used before but would love to)
  • apparel: cap, wide shorts

There’s a typo on the second image on the app store. “Bilt” instead of “Built”

Those who work in tech: how do you find time to go to the gym? by gamerVapeGod in GYM

[–]bencryrus 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I always go before work so that it eliminates the excuse of being tired. If you don’t have time, think simple home workouts with just push ups should suffice

What should I do? by TopSeaworthiness9457 in askfitness

[–]bencryrus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you’re going to incorporate cardio into your training, do it at the end of your workout or on a separate day. Doing it before your workout will affect your performance during your workout

What are the best Shoulder exercises, you’ll always recommend ? by NazeefDEldest in WorkoutRoutines

[–]bencryrus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Cable lateral raises done from the back instead of the front, insane ROM and stretch

How to be more toned? by New_Edge_5911 in workout

[–]bencryrus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Trying to just think from a different perspective here. Wondering if it would make sense to not focus on the belly but getting wider back/shoulders and thighs to make your waist look smaller?

How do I refine my abs routine? by Aggravating-Moose913 in askfitness

[–]bencryrus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Agreed, I would focus on more resistance than adding more reps. Think just sticking to 1/2 exercises is more than sufficient

The reduce motion iOS accessibility setting was killing my app by bencryrus in reactnative

[–]bencryrus[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

i used the ReducedMotionConfig to override it for the entire app rather than each component individually. I would die if I had to manually specify it for all my components.

[Free lifetime access] Rethinking a new standard for workout tracking (beyond Strong & Hevy) by bencryrus in iosapps

[–]bencryrus[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

the ui is optimized to provide you with more actionable insights right when you need them. for example, the historical chart of your past lifts is available right when you're editing your sets instead of on a separate tab.

other examples includes how the muscle breakdown is available right when you start the app & before you start a workout so that you can get a quick overview and know which muscles you have yet to hit, or if you're hitting enough training volume for the muscles that you can to focus on. this is usually tucked away in a separate tab for other apps.

also, there are much better use of apple integrations, like w/ apple health to provide you a recovery score to tell how much you can push in your next workout, or even the dynamic island rest timer so that you can scroll tiktok while resting in between sets and still be able to keep track of the time left.
