An AI fitness app told me to deadlift 300kg. It was one of the reasons I built my own

Disclosure: I'm the solo developer of the app im talking about. I've been lifting for 10 years and coding for 12. I'm self-taught and I built SweatCoach for myself. I was using chatbots to build workouts then putting them into a tracker. I wanted one app that handled this and setting up supersets properly. I also wanted it to help beginners understand what they're training and how to do it right, because I remember being that beginner. What got me into the gym was I'd started to hate how I looked in the mirror. I was a heavy smoker and a few flights of stairs were hard work. One of the things that pushed me to build my own was trying an Al fitness app. It put a 300kg deadlift in my program (for reps!) My PR is 200kg. The Al workout generator in SweatCoach tries to do the opposite. You pick the muscles, how long you've got, your level and where you're training. It also takes your injuries into account and the weights it suggests start from what you've actually lifted before, not a guess. Once you start the work out it even has warmup exercises based on what you are about to do to help you prep properly. Then I took the app to my gym and started talking to people about it, from brand new lifters to older guys who've been at it for years. I've tried to remedy some of the pain points from the other apps. A lot of the features since came out of those conversations. One of my favourites is the 'currently sweating' feature that shows when your gym buddies are training. Straight answer on Al, since someone will ask: yes, I've had help from Al, but I've coded it and had it fully quality checked manually by QA engineers before submitting to the stores. It's early days. It's on iPhone and Android, with Apple Watch and Wear OS apps, and it's free to start: https://sweatcoach.co.uk/go If you want to try it, make an account, then DM me and I'll give you 3 months of Pro free.
