What people do today

πŸ”§ Fix this

Ideas a builder, maker or community group could start on:

  1. A mobile app that generates personalized 6-month progressive overload schedules based on user experience level and available equipment.
  2. A community-verified template library for specific muscle groups that calculates weight increases based on RPE (Rate of Perceived Exertion).
  3. A coaching marketplace connecting beginners with certified trainers for one-time custom program design rather than ongoing expensive subscriptions.
