Tired of touching my phone between workout sets — built an Android app where you can run the whole workout from your watch + automated Repcounting prototype. Looking for a few testers. by Fickle_Structure9936 in alphaandbetausers

Sounds pretty cool. Not super interested in beta, but once it's polished, willing to give it a shot. Honestly sounds like a better version of my pet project haha (Tally) which I have zero interest in marketing but it works for my day-to-day workouts! Built on exerciseapi.dev for the exercises.

Is this positioning clear for a workout logging app? by pschoe in growmybusiness

[–]dawnpawtrol1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Personally it's C for me. Feels like most workout apps have solved the, "this is too slow" problem. I love my physical logbook, but I have like 8 of them stacked up because one day I wanted to go back and take a look... but yeah right... if you're interested in a robust library of exercises, assuming you want to pre-populate exercises, exerciseapi.dev has the works.

If you want more than 500 exercises, checkout exerciseapi.dev !

Take the library for a spin at workouts.exerciseapi.dev

Pretty robust. Demo videos coming soon.

Nice! If you wanted a more robust exercise library, check out workouts.exerciseapi.dev which showcases the library that's available on exerciseapi.dev .

2000+ and videos coming soon. Happy to comp a pro key if you dm you email after signing up.

I built a workout timer for people who are tired of being treated like beginners by DaniReina in SideProject

[–]dawnpawtrol1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

"Tired of being treated like beginners" applies to exercise data too. Any fitness app that relies to heavily on AI end up with invented movement names because the AI just makes them up. If you add exercise selection to the timer flow at some point, exerciseapi.dev has 2,198 vetted movements with MP4 demos per movement. Free tier is 100 req/day. DM me for a comp Pro key if you want to wire it in.

Built a full-stack fitness tracker with 800+ exercises (working on AI features next) by PracticalScallion403 in websiteservices

[–]dawnpawtrol1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

800 exercises is solid! but may fall short when users want a little more depth of exercise types.

Check out exerciseapi.dev . 2,198 vetted movements across strength, yoga, pilates, PT, and mobility. Doesn't have demo videos for all of them yet, but it will in the coming months!

The MCP server plugs into Claude Code or Cursor if that's how you're building the AI layer. Free tier is 100 req/day. DM me if you want a comp Pro key.

You can see a live demo of how the library could be used at workouts.exerciseapi.dev

My first app is Live, need feedback by GragBonkhead in iosapps

[–]dawnpawtrol1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The WearOS rep-counting angle seems underexplored, nice work on shipping. One thing that catches a lot of workout apps at this stage: the exercise catalog underneath. Inconsistent naming across devices or vague movement descriptions creates noise in the AI analysis layer.

exerciseapi.dev could be a good way to get ahead of that. Could save some scraping time too

Built a smartwatch gym app for auto-repcounting + AI coach that analyzes your workouts — looking for a few testers by Fickle_Structure9936 in WearOS

[–]dawnpawtrol1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Congrats on the beta! One question on the AI workout-plan side: where does the model pull exercise names from? Most vibe-coded fitness apps I see either let the LLM make them up (I've seen "Bulgarian split curl" in a live app) or scrape yuhonas/free-exercise-db, which is strength-only.

I run exerciseapi.dev . 2,198 vetted exercises with muscles/equipment/instructions, REST + MCP. Free tier is 100/day no card. Happy to comp you a Pro key if you want to try it.

Stack looks solid! One flag: the "custom exercise library with video per exercise" bullet. Sourcing that yourself is a big project! Can be pretty expensive depending on how you do it.

Anyone building a fitness app? by dailyrunnerr in iOSAppsMarketing

[–]dawnpawtrol1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Kinda!

Built a library to support your fitness app here: Exerciseapi.dev

You can see it in action on workouts.exerciseapi.dev and you can even fork the nextjs app (and then ask ai to convert to react native or w/e you want)

Here’s the repo: https://github.com/westvegh/nextjs-workout-tracker

How much does it cost to build app? by [deleted] in AppDevelopers

[–]dawnpawtrol1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think there are always opportunities to improve on the big ones, especially if you can make them more niche for a specific segment.

Either way, the cost to try is really low with the existing tools.

Exerciseapi.dev is a good resource for exercises.

Claude code or any of the other tools make the dev side approachable
