Over the next 9 months, I sent 15 emails to try to save it : no replies. Feature requests & issues were ignored. The community was left with a "broken" tool let's say.
I couldn't just let it die So I built the new version from scratch with the same open-source spirit, but a better architecture long-term vision, more features and no license problems.
It's called : Workout.cool (https://workout.cool). What it offers: 100% open-source, MIT-licensed - 1200+ exercises (with videos, attributes, translations) - Progress tracking - Multilingual-ready - Self-hostable
I'm not doing this for money. I'm doing it because I believe in open fitness tools, and I’ve been passionate about strength training for 15+ years.
If this resonates with you, feel free to: - Star the repo - Share with fitness/tech friends - Suggest features - Contribute code/design/docs
Together, we can build the open-source fitness platform we all wanted to easily build a workout routine and get in shape

Mine had some good features, like the ability to share your protocol with other people
The idea of sharing your protocol (or full workout templates) is something I'm definitly building into Workout.cool as well. Users will be able to create routines, save them, and share them publicly (or privately) super useful for friends, coaches, or even just "community inspiration"?.
If you ever feel like revisiting your old project or contributing some ideas/features, I'd love to hear more!
my idea was to actually have a centralized backend and distribute the app. I need to take a look at the source code for that project...
