Hey there, I'm Maximilian, the solo-founder of boost!
I'm super happy to share with you the project I've been working on for quite some time now.
With boost, I want to combine my drive to create something that has a positive effect on people's lives with my background in Computer Vision / AI / Software engineering.
🤩 **So, what is boost?**
Boost is your own personal fitness trainer! She is always at your side, counting your repetitions, giving you tips for the perfect form of each exercise, and adapting the workouts to your goals and fitness level. With every update, boost wants to come closer to the experience you would have with a real personal trainer - and all you need is your smartphone.
🤔 **Why a digital personal fitness trainer?**
Working out regularly has a tremendously positive effect on my personal physical and mental health, which is what I want to share. But the main challenge to start your fitness journey is scraping together the needed motivation and even more importantly sticking to it. By far the best fitness experience one *could* have to overcome this is having your own personal trainer, tailoring your workouts to your needs, guiding and motivating you along the way. But this is out of scope for almost everybody. So here comes boost - an AI personal trainer for everybody!
🤖 **How does boost work?**
Boost uses your smartphone's front-facing camera to analyze your movements in real-time. Everything happens on your device, so no images or videos are stored or sent to servers. With the help of its built-in AI boost then mimics the interaction you would have with a personal trainer.
Right now boost offers a continuously expanding catalog of 28 exercises in 11 strength, cardio, and yoga-inspired workouts - all dynamically adapted to your fitness level.
I'd be more than happy if you would try the first version of boost - It's completely free!
🎁 **As a small thank you:
Everybody who signs up during the Product Hunt launch is granted 3 free months of training once boost leaves its beta.**
Feel free to ask me anything!
Cheers, Maximilian
I miss personal trainer, during this covid induced lockdown, who could correct your postures during different exercises. Boost is definitely an answer. Thanks Maximilian for making this.
@hgottfried Hey! The general approach is the same: Make Fitness more interactive. Boost however aims to replicate the whole experience you have with a personal trainer, which goes beyond counting repetitions. Boost adjusts all workouts to your fitness level to assure you are always challenged but not overwhelmed and corrects your execution to ensure proper form.
Right so does the app I asked about it uses AI (supposedly) to monitor your form and provide feedback. I’m asking how your implementation is different, what makes your product unique.
I like what you’ve done and think it’s got potential but need to know more
