The split is a carryover from the way Reddit was organized, with the fitness sub being very generalized and larger, and the weightroom sub a lot more structured and focussed on strength and hypertrophy. The structure goes hand in hand with methodical strength training, personally I found the regular training logs to be helpful for accountability. Over the last year or so on Lemmy a few other people had mentioned the same, so I thought I would try my hand at providing that structure here on the fediverse

I would love to be able to knit sweaters

I find it so surprising that the single edge gem blades didn’t take over the shaving world, compared to the standard double edged safety razor. The angle is built right into the razor head, it’s essentially idiot proof!

Gem razors ftw!

It didn’t cross my mind that people would play themselves that way but that totally makes sense

This is a cool project, glad to see things are still progressing. Is there an option for manually adding activities (like cycling or workouts), or is it solely based on the step counter of the phone?

First thing that came to mind!

What is dead can never die

This is so unhinged I love it

It’s a Tesla thing

A lot of the fitness apps have tracking for weightlifting. You get a little badge or animation when you hit a new max… I think there’s a missed opportunity here for a weightlifting RPG like walkscape is for walking…

Yes and then tracking, in great detail, exactly how heavy the things were and how much heavier they were than last time. Just incredible stuff

I started lifting for self improvement and quickly got hooked on progression and getting stronger. It didn’t take long to become a habit and now it’s the thing I most look forward to after a long day of work. With no more than three hours per week you can completely transform yourself…

That’s pretty funny, also sad because it’s sorta believable

There once was a game that was not free
The head of the game was big Randy
He joked one day with a cheery grin
Real fans would pay the fee HUAGH

Soon may the pirates come
To snag some games and have their fun
One day, when the cracks are done
We’ll take our games and go

Gotta give props to active participation, upvotes, comments are helping too, you’re right. I was just focussed on community building, it might not be as fun but it’s important also

Yeah I would have bought it at launch if it weren’t bundled with denuovo, which is now locking out users on linux

We are in at the ground level of Lemmy. A lot of people like OP are passive consumers, but now is the time to step up, get out of your comfort zone and start building the communities you want to see. You might have to hustle a little bit

If you do start up a community you can link it like this:

!weightroom@sh.itjust.works

Here’s a totally random community about strength and hypertrophy training for example
