   I’ve very often struggled to maintain a consistent workout routine without relying on a trainer. I started using this app to supplement my regular training routine. I’ve used it on days where I just wasn’t sure what to focus on, and it has helped by making it easy to target a specific muscle group or filter by equipment. The smart progression and auto tracking has really helped me see tangible progress in my training. It’s taken a lot of the effort out of planning my workouts, making actually going to the gym much easier and enjoyable.

   I do like how it is easy to swap out an exercise, or adjust the number of reps or weights on the fly. This has been useful when the gym is busy and I may not have access to the right equipment, it makes it really easy to adapt a workout. The animations and descriptions of what to do in an exercise are also really helpful.

   I would recommend this to anyone who struggles to track and maintain a consistent workout plan.

It's not perfect, but I can easily change the workout based on what I'm feeling. It also keeps track of your workouts and can post... Source: 11 months ago

• Fitness app review

  I've started using a new fitness app, Fitbod (https://fitbod.me/). I've only logged a couple workouts so far but am a pretty big fan of the app right away. My favorite thing is that I can set up multiple "gyms" in the app and define what each equipment has in it (my crappy station gym vs my decent home gym vs the local commercial gym I go to) and have it auto-generate workouts for me. It's smart enough to know... Source: about 1 year ago

• Ottawa personal trainer/fitness coach

  Now I workout at home and I use Fitbod that’s almost like a virtual personal trainer. You could try the free trial while you find a trainer. Source: about 1 year ago

• Do you need a trainer when hitting the gym?

  I really liked FitBod. It's $79.99/year. You can select the equipment available to you, and the app will generate the relevant workouts, adapting over time. Source: about 1 year ago

• Ask HN: People who strength train from home can you describe your journey?

  For what it’s worth, I’ll mention what works for me. I have no interest in any companies or products mentioned below other than using them and finding them useful. I’ve weight-trained for decades and switched up my routine during the pandemic. I have only a small room available at home for this, which I also use as an office and music studio. So, not a lot of space. I bought a pair of Bowflex SelectTech 552s... - Source: Hacker News / over 1 year ago
