How are you balancing work and health as a busy professional?

I sometimes feel like health and work is a zero sum game. When I focus on one, the other tends to suffer, making it hard to keep my progress. However, I know that staying healthy will actually help me be more productive in the long run, decreasing my risk of getting sick, improving my mental and cognitive health. In these past few years I've learnt from my mistakes and there's 2 main lessons I...

Who Here Creates Content Alongside Their Product?

I've been thinking a lot about the power of content when building a product. Gary Vee always talks about personal brand, and I see more founders using content to build an audience and create trustā€”way before their product takes off.Iā€™ve been doing this myself by sharing educational content about fitness and health, which also helps introduce people to Movitalis (an activity tracker focused on...

The ā€œOne More Featureā€ Trap ā€“ When Do You Stop Adding?

You know that feeling when you think, ā€œJust one more feature, and itā€™ll be perfectā€? Yeahā€¦ same.Iā€™ve been stuck in this loop more times than Iā€™d like to admit. Thereā€™s always something that feels almost essentialā€”until you step back and realise you might never actually launch if you keep going.At some point, you have to ask:šŸ‘‰ Does this really make the product better, or just bigger?šŸ‘‰ Will most...

Can an iOS-only app be successful?

Hi everyone!Iā€™m launching Movitalis soonā€”an activity tracker app focused on longevity, currently available only on iOS. The most common question I get is: ā€œWhen will it be available on Android?ā€ And, unfortunately, my honest answer is: ā€œI donā€™t knowā€. Here's why:Movitalis relies on Apple Health to keep all user data local and secure. Since most fitness devices and apps sync with Health, it...

Did you know your smartwatch tracks your VO2 max - and why you should care

Hi all! Movitalis is launching soon and I want to talk about one of the most important fitness indicators that is readily available but flies under the radar for most of us: VO2 max.Most smartwatches nowadays estimate this value pretty well, but they don't do a good enough job at presenting it to the user. On Apple Watch it is hidden under Apple Health > Heart > Cardio Fitness and on...

What fitness app do you use the most, and why? šŸƒšŸ»ā€ā™‚ļø

Hi all! Movitalis is an activity tracker focused on longevity and it is launching soon. Until then I want to see what other cool fitness apps people love. šŸ‘€The app I use the most (besides Movitalis ofc) is probably @Strava , they just nail it with the statistics and the community, it's really fun to see what your friends are up to (and sometimes a bit scary that you can know what heart rate...

Why you should be tracking your VO2 max - and how to do it better

Hi all! Movitalis is launching soon and I want to talk about one of the most important but under appreciated fitness indicators: VO2 max. While it did become more popular lately it is still not widely known that VO2 max is an amazing indicator of overall health and predictor of longevity. In one study of over 1 million participants, a low VO2 max was linked with a 3-5x increase in overall...

Are we overcomplicating everything with AI?

I cannot help but notice that 3/4 products launched have AI in the description. AI is amazing, but is it really always necessary? For example in my niche, Health & Fitness, most apps try to use as many data points as possible and use AI to give you the ā€œoptimal workoutsā€. That sounds good on paper, but actually I think most people would benefit more from a simple structure that is easy to...
