💻 bodyweight workout generator

Bodyweight Workout Generator is a tiny web app that generates a random 10 minute body workout and prompts you for each exercise.

It's not totally random - it's smart enough to avoid using the same muscle group back-to-back (actually: for each muscle group, there's a fatigue factor that is kept track of, which decays over time).

The app is bare-bones and not very polished, but it's Good Enough For Me™.

History

During COVID, Canna and I started doing workouts at home - using Youtube videos - but I very quickly got tired of watching the same video multiples times. The hosts would make the same dumb joke at the exact same moment. Ugh! I couldn't stand it.

Nothing a little coding can't fix.

We've likely used it a few hundred times. We gate access to playing our daily Bandle with some form of physical activity, and this workout app is a common go to.

Plans

• ui with knobs to adjust:
  • intensity
• ability to remove certain exercises
• flesh out the underlying exercise data
• add royalty free background music
• use consistent non-copyrighted exercise videos
