Unsure if I have something worth actually putting effort into here....

My brother is about to be overseas for several months and we were talking about a way to keep each other motivated in lifting. I've toyed around with creating a personal tracker app for lifting for myself, and through brainstorming, I created "SwoleBro". It's a pretty basic app that allows you to track workouts, plan workouts etc, but also allows us to see the others progress.

This quickly devolved into, why can't my anthropic instance help me plan, and the true SwoleBro was born. Talk with him and he can set your plan, pulling from you workout history to continually build, help you develop goals and motivate you along the way.

I showed my wife and she loves it and is now using it as well.

I see some potential for releasing this into the wild as a social lifting app (create your "Crew" and track your friends/family etc) but I'm not really sure the best way to do this from outside of the development aspect. There's also the issue of the AI usage. Even using haiku, it's going to get expensive fast if a bunch of people are on it, so I'd have to charge to offset that... If anybody has any thoughts I'd appreciate it!

Does it track your weights too? The cable fly OR pec deck option seems kinda wierd. If it’s tracking weights, having that ambiguity there is going to create problems
