contributors.txt Added Victor Brawner to the list of contributors. 2015-06-19 21:31:52 -05:00
exercises.py Ok, so, lots of changes here. The exercises have now been split into separate categories according to their type, and now the user is prompted to input their preferences for each type. Also, the end result is now printed to an external file, so that the user can just open it up and then print it out directly from their text editor. I still need to finish separating the exercises into their categories though. 2015-06-23 14:55:54 -05:00

workoutinformation.xlsx Added an excel spreadsheet to hold the information needed to generate the workouts so that they are still accurate despite being random. 2015-06-21 09:32:19 -05:00

What is this repository for?

  • A simple python script to generate a random workout based on the number of days per week that the user wants to work out.
  • Learn Markdown

How do I get set up?

  • Make sure you're using Python 3.4.3.
  • Fork the repository to a safe location on your hard drive and pull every time you want to work on it.

Contribution guidelines

  • Comment out all new code additions and write out new additions in commit messages.
  • After you finish what you wanted to work on, commit the changes you made and write a brief message explaining what you did. Then push your changes to the server.

Who do I talk to?

Current Features

  • Generate a random workout for a user.
  • Take into account the number of days per week they want to/are able to work out.
  • Muscles accounted for in the workout: chest, back, legs, triceps, biceps, shoulders, forearms, calves, abs.
  • Take into account a user's goals (Strength, Endurance, Hypertrophy.)
  • Take into account a user's preference (Free weights, selectorized equipment, or cable equipment.)
  • Save routine to a file for easy access later.

Possible future features

  • Include rest and tempo into the format.
  • Take into account a user's fitness level (beginner, intermediate, advanced) and modify the workout given accordingly.
  • Allow user to input how many sets, reps, and weight for each exercise completed in order to track their progress.
  • Allow user to substitute individual exercises in their list.
  • Remember weight used for each exercise in previous workouts if the user has input them afterwards and suggest the highest weight used for each.
  • Convert to a web app or native mobile app for use on phones/tablets (maybe both, since Apple is super strict on their app acceptance policy.)
