love glide apps.<p>Workflow is broken if<p>1) created a user
2) add to home screen
3) cannot login with previously created user :(<p>didnt know that glide now has an authentication feature, cool for them :)
Hey HN, maker of the app here.<p>I've been pretty intrigued by this idea: what would happen if all exercise was public before it was happened and centralized in one place? I've also been interested in ways that technology can better motivate people to exercise in the first place and/or more consistently sustain exercise. I didn't originally intend to build a version of this app using a no-code tool but Glide (<a href="https://www.glideapps.com" rel="nofollow">https://www.glideapps.com</a>) allowed me to build and iterate very quickly.<p>For those into motivation theory / habit formation, I tried to leverage the power of implementation intentions (<a href="https://jamesclear.com/implementation-intentions" rel="nofollow">https://jamesclear.com/implementation-intentions</a>) and habit contracts (<a href="https://s3.amazonaws.com/jamesclear/Atomic+Habits/Habit+Contract.pdf" rel="nofollow">https://s3.amazonaws.com/jamesclear/Atomic+Habits/Habit+Cont...</a>) when building the app. Additionally, a concept I learned from Atomic Habits (<a href="https://jamesclear.com/atomic-habits" rel="nofollow">https://jamesclear.com/atomic-habits</a>) that really resonated with me was the idea of "keystone habits." James Clear discusses them in more depth here (<a href="https://jamesclear.com/keystone-habits" rel="nofollow">https://jamesclear.com/keystone-habits</a>) but a quick definition is: We have habits everywhere in our lives, but certain routines — keystone habits — lead to a cascade of other actions because of them. I think of health and fitness as a combination of exercise, diet, and recovery (sleep) and exercise is my keystone habit in that flywheel.<p>Lastly, if you're interested in learning more, I did a write-up on why and how I built the app here and included some thoughts on the current state + future of social fitness networks. Tl;dr I think a gargantuan social fitness network might start out looking like Superhuman x Dropbox for coordinating and tracking workouts: <a href="https://medium.com/@arjunmahadevan/why-and-how-i-built-classpass-x-instagram-for-fitness-with-friends-without-writing-a-line-of-c6d971ed3eb4" rel="nofollow">https://medium.com/@arjunmahadevan/why-and-how-i-built-class...</a>
