Inspiration
Recently, I had a presentation that involved obesity in America. During research for the presentation, I found that more than 34% of adults in America are obese. Many of these people have their reasons for being obese like being too busy, not having access to gyms, fresh food, just not having the want to get fit. This lit something in me to want better for America and the whole world overall. In today's day and age, a lot of people make excuses as to why they can't make homemade meals, why they can't workout, etc. But this agent looks to solve those problems.
What it does
This fitness coach agent allows anyone to get a personalized workout and meal plan made for themselves. You can put in specific information about yourself like your weight, height, how often you workout, if you have any injuries or restrictions to your body or diet. The agent uses all the information you have given it, and creates plans for you. Depending on what you are looking for you can change meals, you can ask for recipes or specific tips on how to do workouts. Any fitness idea, tip, meal, health question you have, it will be able to answer and give you a response.
How we built it
I first went about watching the Google Ai Vertex agent videos to reference how to build the agent. Then I went about planning how I wanted the agent to respond and act to the user. After that I input the specific ideas the agent should know, the instructions to follow, and how to achieve the goal the agent is trying to accomplish.
Challenges we ran into
For some time I was stuck trying to get a common starter response for the agent, to which I was able to solve by creating an almost default message that the agent would respond with. Also, I struggled to figure out how to get the information to be printed out in nice format bullet points. Until I figured out you can explicitly state how you want the LLM to print out the response.
Accomplishments that we're proud of
I'm proud of the overall agent. I've created something that I can personally use along with something I know a multitude of people will find helpful. I'm proud of the ability of this agent to print out detailed recipes for all the meals it suggests. Along with the ability to find out how to perform specific workouts. Again, I love this agent from head to toe and all of its uses in the fitness space.
What we learned
I learned that I can build an AI agent. I learned that an ai can provide you with help for daily tasks and goals you have. That although it is a robot AI, that they are able to provide you help as if though they were a coach who is working alongside with you to help with your progress.
What's next for Fitness Lifestyle Planner
In the future, I hope to be able to create Fitness Coach into a fully functioning app that can completely transform people's lives around the world. It has multiple uses from a healthy meal standpoint, to a fitness point where you are trying to lose fat or gain muscle.
