Features

• Exercise Tracking: This app allows users to build a workout plan by tracking various exercises and the sets, reps, and weight completed. Exercises are tracked via a calendar where the user can look at past completed workouts and plan future workouts.
• Exercise Suggestions: When naming an exercise users are automatically prompted with various common exercises. By selecting the exercise bank users can see common exercises, what muscles they target, and a live image and description of how to do the exercise.
• Timer: Workouts page has a built in timer for rest time between workouts
• Friends and Leaderboard: Users can search for and follow friends via the friends page. Friends can view each others streak, which measures how many consecutive days one has logged exercises, via a leaderboard.
• Weight Graph: On the profile page we've implemented a graph that allows users to track their weight across time.
