Overview

A fitness application (originally “Lift-Pal”) that allows coaches to create, distribute, and track personalized workout plans for their athletes. Athletes get instant access to their plans and progress tracking, while built-in AI suggests exercises, loads, and schedules.

Problem

Coaches and athletes rely on Excel sheets, complicated websites, or fragmented free apps to manage workout plans. Existing fitness apps lack comprehensive features, coach-athlete workflows, or AI-powered recommendations — and the good ones are expensive.

Approach

Business Model

1. Coach subscribes to become a “coach” user
2. Coach creates workout plans, each with a unique access code
3. Athletes pay the coach directly for a plan
4. Coach gives the workout code to the athlete
5. Athlete uses the code to create their login and access plans

Key Features

• Workout plan creation and distribution (coach → athlete)
• Progress tracking and live stats visibility for coaches
• AI-powered workout recommendations (exercises, loads, schedules)
• Social features: profiles, follow, achievements, PRs, highlights
• Time-based circuit/flow support (yoga, core, hybrid)
• Exercise database (gym, cardio, custom)

Competitive Edge

Based on competitor analysis (GymKeeper, FitHero, StrongLifts 5x5), must-haves:

• Simple, clean interface
• Workout database (gym, cardio, custom)
• History view
• Minimal ads / fair pricing
• Forecast and recommendation features (AI)

Open Questions

• Tech stack? (React Native? Flutter?)
• Hosting strategy and cost analysis
• Data protection / GDPR compliance plan
• MVP scope — coach features first, or athlete-first?
• Domain and branding (FitMe vs. Lift-Pal?)
