Agree, it seems like a mismatch of features and audience.

As someone who doesn't know much about working out or what exercises to do this sounds like a good app. I need help, but picking based on muscles is off. My thought and goals are not by muscle group, but losing weight or getting more toned.

Conversely, someone who knows what muscle groups they want to target, probably already has some sense of the exercises to target and thus less likely to need the app.

For someone like me, who have had an accident (dislocated kneecap) and need to focus on special muscle groups to compensate it makes sense to search for exercises based on muscle groups.

Interesting, although I wouldn't say that's the audience that the author says he's targeting.

Also - for most people who had accidents they'd probably rather click on "Dislocated Kneecap" and then have the software suggest exercises to help with that condition - vs needing to bring that knowledge to the app.

great feedback and I agree that (i forgot tbh..) most beginners don't think in muscle groups, but in goals like "lose weight" "feel better", "beginner friendly", etc...

The goal is to make the app more welcoming by offering goal-based (or filters,let's see) entry points like "fat loss" "beginner full-body" or "3x/week routine" and not require anatomy knowledge to get started.

The muscle filter will just be one of many ways to browse, not a gatekeeper i guess. Thanks a lot for highlighting this!
