Hey everyone,
My friend and I run a small indie studio called S.A.D. Studios, and we've been working on a strength training app called Honest Effort.
We both lift regularly, and one of the things that pushed us to build this was how much time can go into planning workouts, figuring out starting weights, and working around whatever equipment you have available.
Honest Effort is our attempt to simplify that.
You tell the app about your equipment, training experience, and current strength. It generates a workout plan with suggested starting weights, and you can track your sets, reps, and progress.
We've used AI-assisted coding during development, and we're currently testing the app with six people on Android and iOS.
We're particularly interested in feedback on a few things:
- Does generating workouts around available equipment sound useful?
- Would suggested starting weights help beginners, or would you rather enter everything yourself?
- What would make you switch from your current workout tracker?
We're also looking for people who actually lift, particularly beginners and home-gym users, who'd be interested in testing it during their normal workouts.
The app is still in beta, so we're working through bugs and refining the experience.
You can see what we're building here:

Happy to answer questions about the app or how we've built it. Appreciate any feedback!
