i've used chatgpt for this over the past 4 months. the structure it provides beats the $300/mo I used to spend on a remote coach. that said, there are gaps that you need to watch out for: 1) over time, it confuses past feedback or will make it entirely; 2) sometimes will omit exercises for a specific day's programming or lose the thread for a training block (I asked for 6-week blocks), 3) will suggest use of equipment you don't have, and 4) struggles to critique form via submitted video.
nothing insurmountable, but not a one-shot solution... yet
+1. I find for workout tracking using LLM + tool use just to track in a some DB is really useful, and allows for real adaptivity on the fly.
For weight loss / weight coaching, its worth using an adaptive TDEE coach for nutrition. The best app in this space that I've found is Zolt. Zolt also replaced my WHOOP for me completely.
It will become so much more helpful if there's a way to automatically log the workouts and provide the workout data (e.g. heart rate, etc.) + manually log perceived effort and qualitative notes.
Thanks for the prompt! I've been using it in a similar manner over the past year for PT and climbing specific training. Pretty insane how much specificity we have thanks to these tools.
I'm curious, when you're designing prompts for projects like this, how do you go through the process of drafting them? And how much are you utilizing multiple AI platforms to enhance your baseline brainstorms?

Not tryna shameless plug but been building a free app for this on IOS for this usecase, it’s called swizz.
Either I can not find it or it is not published in the German app store.

Hey sven here ya go, not sure why it’s not showing in DE from search tho haha. Big updates on the way soon!
Thanks, Brian!
wow tried it and it is quite something…

Whoop needs to incorporate something like this
These principles can be applied everywhere. I'm building an AI education app right now and I think this has been very useful - https://aaris.ai
This is really great. Was able to adapt this really well. Love this.
