This kind of app could have:
👉 Feed of work outs of your peers.
You can zap, copy, fork, react, comment, ... Help each other reach goals.
👉 Feed of tips & tricks in long form articles.
Filtration & Discovery of methods (how to lift, what to eat, ...) your peers actually found useful.
👉 Your personal track record
What else?
design it and I will build it 🤝
but more in general, tracking goals ? Privately or publicly posted goals you could reference later when you completed the goal...
I’m not sure. I’ve been mulling over how to integrate nostr in to the fitness app I’ve been working on for a while.
I could create the workouts in a JSON format post those to the note and then have the client render them in a nice format.
The difficult part is standardizing the way workouts are held in JSON.
For example, if I was to export my workout data in JSON and put it in a most note it looks like this
{"name":"Fran","worksets":[{"exercises":[{"name":"Thruster","specs":[{"mass":{"unit":{"converter":{"coefficient":0.453592,"constant":0},"symbol":"lb"},"value":95}},{"reps":21}]},{"specs":[{"reps":21}],"name":"Pull-up"},{"specs":[{"reps":15},{"mass":{"value":95,"unit":{"converter":{"coefficient":0.453592,"constant":0},"symbol":"lb"}}}],"name":"Thruster"},{"specs":[{"reps":15}],"name":"Pull-up"},{"name":"Thruster","specs":[{"mass":{"value":95,"unit":{"symbol":"lb","converter":{"coefficient":0.453592,"constant":0}}}},{"reps":9}]},{"name":"Pull-up","specs":[{"reps":9}]}],"bounds":{"timePriority_rounds":1,"timePriority_reps":0}}]}
Or a workout like Starting Strength may look like this:
{"name":"Starting Strength Phase 1A","worksets":[{"exercises":[{"name":"Barbell Squat","specs":[{"reps":5}]},{"name":"Barbell Squat","specs":[{"reps":5}]},{"name":"Barbell Squat","specs":[{"reps":5}]}],"bounds":{"elementPriority":true}},{"bounds":{"elementPriority":true},"exercises":[{"name":"Barbell Press","specs":[{"reps":5}]},{"specs":[{"reps":5}],"name":"Barbell Press"},{"name":"Barbell Press","specs":[{"reps":5}]}]},{"bounds":{"elementPriority":true},"exercises":[{"specs":[{"reps":5}],"name":"Barbell Deadlift"}]}]}
So clients like Damus and whatnot are just going to get raw JSON, which isn’t a problem per se.
Let me know. I’m really interested in working on this problem.
Yes! Someone working on this 💪 great to hear.
How does JSON compare to this approach in terms of being an easy standard for similar nostr apps to use? nostr:nevent1qqsxuckqe6q5zus3wem5r3z8umnh4tu99tmgvc36h7te533hfjvzzrqppemhxue69uhkummn9ekx7mp0qgsru22d9lfnnwck54qr4phrvey50h2q33xc0gqxv5j03ftn4efu4rsrqsqqqqqpcavs7m
I'm very new to the dev-side of these choices and need help comparing pros and cons.
Seems like you'd have quite a bit more freedom with the JSON option. But that's not always a good thing 😜 .
I’ll have to look into those other event types. It’s a tough nut to crack because people may want wildly different things. Straight lifting apps provide one style, cross training another and HIIT and CrossFit another…
👉 Personal coaches:
- making more money on nostr because they tap into a wider client pool (clients that can trust coaches faster because of their social graph recommendations)
- doing livestreams
