Grindset

Inspiration

While education is the ground of which a student life revolves around we as a team wanted to step back and view the student support system as something for the students mental health. Mental health is a crucial aspect of everyday life which is a necessity to keep a balance in life. Especially for students who are constantly bombarded by assignments to projects to grades all around.

As a student myself I have realized how important mental health can be for myself and a method that helped me overcome many difficult barriers was that of physical activities. And we as a team wanted to share our experiences with others through the form of the app “Grindset” A fitness-based app that creates exercise for students based on their inputs. Physical activities create a great way to improve one's mental health regardless of the level of expertise, that's why our app focuses on improving a student's mental health through all ranges of difficulty as the improvisation of mental health is our ultimate goal.

What it does

It allows students to generate randomized workouts and keeps physical education fresh.
