myocardio is a small utility to generate exercise split plans for you. It recieves a list of exercises from you. For each exercise, you specify:
- exercise name
- which muscle groups are involved
- how many repetitions you make
The tool then generates and displays an exercise plan for you that tries not to include exercises with big overlaps in muscle groups consecutively. It also prioritizes exercises that you haven’t done for some time.
The algorithm is described in this PDF file.
The input is expected in JSON format at the location $HOME/.config/myocardio/data.json and looks like this:
{
"exercises": [
{
"muscles": [
"pectoralis",
"triceps",
"deltoid",
"core",
"quadriceps",
"hip flexor"
],
"tagged": null,
"reps": "3x10",
"name": "Burpees",
"last": null
}
]
}As you can see, the JSON is just a list of exercises. The format should be self-explanatory.
| Key | Binding |
|---|---|
| t | tag an exercise (meaning you did it today) |
| j | Go down a row (vim-style!) |
| k | Go up a row |
| c | commit the plan (meaning you’re done exercising) |
| r | Type in a new repetition count |
Just clone the repository and type:
