alt Hacker Newshttps://fivethreeone.app/ a weightlifting app for 5/3/1 has been earning me ~$1000 a month for over two years now.
I'm actively working on a successor that allows you to create your own custom workout programs using formulas: https://vis.fitness

Nice! I used to use it when doing BBB 5/3/1. Sadly I stalled and got depressed.
Recently started GZCLP after getting sad at how bad I started to look with no activity
My one complaint was that there weren’t more sophisticated training regiments. I didn’t work 5/2 weeks so I just went to the gym every other day and I just clicked whatever in the app when working out, while I would prefer to track my days. Otherwise solid app, thanks for the hard work.
This is a perfect example of taking a simple idea and elevating it/ executing it well. Well done!
As someone that has used 531 for a while, I thought an app like this would not add much value. I mean, we can all track our progress in a spreadsheet. But I must say that it looks great.
This stuff is inspiring to see..
Looks really good, will try it.
What is your revenue split, tip vs non tips? I've always wondered if putting a tip button on a free app could generate significant income.
Love the AI generated image, "Extra-Large (>72pt) Font". Made me chuckle. Definetly a feature of the app.
But looks really cool ill be trialing it this week!
I assume you have some kind of partnership with Jim Wendler?
The periodization sounds really cool but the success of the app I would think is based entirely on the good marketing Wendler and Elitefts did with 5/3/1.
That looks very cool. Are you planning on adding Apple Watch integration?
I cannot stand having to fiddle with my phone while at the gym.

Using android 15 on a Nothing Phone 1. Any chance to get it working?
Wow this is pretty cool. I am working on my first mobile app. what tips can you give. I am planning to build in public on twitter, substack and share my coding process here on HN.
It is a carpooling app.
This app is not available for your device
I have a Pixel 6 Pro. That's not thaat old.
Thank you for building this! I've been using the app for almost a year after I switched to the Boring But Big routine.
