What social features would you want from a social fitness app?

If it could see and count your reps automatically?

Sharing true stories and not the stories/expectations by a steroid bod

@fahadzaidi_5 Challenges coming up this year, stay tuned, personally I'm quite excited for this feature too :D

Milestones or achievements that could be displayed.

@aqsa_sajjad it’s not exactly a new idea, but I don’t think any social fitness app has really put the effort behind it that could make it great. Hidden goals that only pop up when you get them, changing and scaling rankings. There’s so much that can be done for engagement there, but usually achievement systems are unimaginative and generic.
Jack Lhasa
@aqsa_sajjad well, I am still a fan of an achievement system, maybe give them out as ERC1155 on polygon. But do some interesting stuff. Say a person walks daily. Give them points for taking different routes instead of the same. If they pass a park, or a statue or something , do one for passing it 25 times or something. You could separate treadmill, sidewalk, and open green spaces. Breaking personal bests should always bring the bell. That’s just a bit off the top of my head.

Sharing it with my inner circle to get more similar viibes as your vibes attracts your tribe

To be able to challenge friends, probably some leader/ rank board feature keeping track and driving motivation with friendly competition and maybe some badges or points to maintain consistency in workout routine. Real time working out with audio/ video features with friends/ community would also be nice

Ok, so this is something I have actually thought about before. I used to have so many friends that were total fans of Chloe Ting. I went to go see her website a while back and was oh so impressed. There's a thread on there, where you can find people who are starting to workout or starting a specific challenge at the same time as you and then you're paired! You then get the motivation from being a part of a group. I looooooooved this! You can even encourage the person with a daily message and stuff. I honestly never ended up trying it, as I am not a fan of it all, but I thought wow, what a great idea.
