I built a fitness app that you talk into. It takes the tedium out of getting in shape. Getting fit has never been easier.

DM me to join the app test!

If you're looking to get fit, but find it takes way too long to track everything, you're not alone - I feel the same way. So I solved the problem.

Two years ago, I was very overweight, depressed, looked like garbage, it was bad. I hired a nutrition and bodybuilding coach, learned a ton about both from them, and implemented what I learned. I'm in phenomenal shape now compared to the average person.

There was one problem. Everything took too long. Tracking food and my lifts was a chore. None of the existing apps do everything well. So I made one that did. And it has a special feature none of them have - you can talk to it. It will do all the work for you tracking things.

I use it daily for my own fitness. I use it more than anyone else pushing it to it's limits. It's powerful. It's been a game changer. I'd be glad to get you using it so you can level up your fitness game yourself. Leave a comment or DM me if you'd like to chat about it. Follow me for more updates!

Marc could invest in efchat right now
that could happen

I still think GPT 5.6 Sol is the gold standard for General AI.

Never ran out for me and can do everything.

If you'd like to get in shape like this, leave a comment to receive early access to Extrafit, the fitness app I made for myself first, which takes all the tedium out of getting shredded.

Using omp to configure my phone & desktop for remote omp. I no longer need to be at my computer to do computer work.

[Paul @PaulGibler]

This strategy works because the world has a lot more people into niche activities than you realize.

This is why there are numerous successful apps in certain domains (finance, language learning, fitness, etc.), because those "niches" are massive and have a large market to tap.

Someone will make an app tomorrow around their hobby.

Surfing.

It’ll be at $150k/m by the end of the year bc they chose to make an app around a passion project that is unique but also not brand new bc they copied All Trails but for surfing.

Yet you’re making the 400th looksmaxxing app this month.

@ads4apps Articles are good but the self-contained concepts in your posts stand alone enough that I think it's plenty useful to most people, which is the idea. I don't think you have to change a thing.

Codex does an incredible job at understanding intent now. I can use "this" and "that" in my prompts and assume it will know what I'm talking about contextually, and it always does.

[Paul @PaulGibler]

@StephenJGibler I just don't trust Claude lol

[Paul @PaulGibler]

This is good advice. Don't pretend you're an expert in something that you're not. However, it's good to share what you do know.

I'm learning how to money as a solo founder, so I won't post about that yet. But I do know how to make great software, so I'll post about that now.

Suggestion if building in public:

Just say what you’re doing stop telling other what to do or act like a teacher.

The amount of people on here saying “actually what I said last month was stupid and completely wrong” is wild

Nothing wrong with admitting you’re wrong.

Just don’t act like a teacher in the first place unless you know your stuff. That’s all

My guitar teacher, one of the best to ever do it, told me that to get to that level, you have to remove unnecessary distractions as much as possible.

With the advent of supercharged AI productivity AND a flood of pointless content, time management is more important than ever.

[Stephen Gibler @StephenJGibler]

@PaulGibler Why do anything else other than work with Codex? Nothing on TV is this good or fulfilling.

I fixed two bugs today that I ran into while testing my app in the field.

I told codex to check the production logs and find errors and fix them.

It did.

[Paul @PaulGibler]

Optimizing your local development environment to handle production issues is one of the best ways to supercharge your development speed.

Today I added two features: Authenticated access to production errors and chats.

The production errors let me handle app interaction issues.

The chat logs let me field bug and feature requests in an instant.

With this setup, I can use Codex Remote from my phone connected to my desktop and handle production issues while I'm out and about.

@VadimStrizheus @CryptoShniffer I appreciate the transparency. It helps a lot...

[Paul @PaulGibler]

@ads4apps Flutter. I used React Native for a while and it's good. Flutter has a superior rendering engine, and for me, that's important. I like having nice animations in my app.

For the record, I've never hand-written a line of dart in my life. And I probably will never have to.

I'm trying to push the AI to it's breaking point but it keeps succeeding.
