my workout habit disappeared during a rough year, so i built something to track it

i’ve always been someone who exercises consistently. 3-4 times a week, never thought about it, just did it.

then 2024 happened. work stress through the roof, the kind where you wake up already anxious. relationship stuff on top of that. and somewhere along the way, working out stopped being automatic.

the problem is i had no visibility into what was actually happening. i track all my workouts with my apple watch, but apple health buries that data under so many taps and charts.

so i did what i do when i wake up at 4am and can't sleep, i built something. a tiny app that for apple health workout data in a way that motivates me:

1. ⁠set weekly goal

2. ⁠workouts this week

3. ⁠calendar with every workout visualized

4. ⁠streak counter

no account, no cloud, everything stays on your device. it just reads what your apple watch already tracked and shows it simply.

it’s not magic. it won’t cure my anxiety or fix my job. but there’s something powerful about not being able to hide from reality anymore.

still early but it’s helping me. would really appreciate any feedback.
