Inspiration

During the pandemic, the world has been confined within four walls. Lethargy has taken over most of us. Yes, we see people somehow getting the motivation to keep themselves fit, but that is not possible for everyone. We wanted to build an app that would make working out a fun experience, and something that you can pair with your favourite movies!

What it does

It helps people watch their favorite movies/ tv shows, while working out. The person can choose the genre of whatever they are watching, choose a difficulty level (easy, intermediate and hard) and then exercise according to certain prompts. For example, if it is an action movie, and a car flips over, they do a certain exercise. Users can also create their own plans according to their goals.

How we built it

We built the app using AppSheet, a no-coding web app. It helped us take our database and converted it into a base app that we built up on.

Challenges we ran into

Deciding the idea was a little hard and we went through multiple ideas at first. Also, we are new to coding and coding websites specifically, we were clueless as to what was a comfortable choice for us.

Accomplishments that we're proud of

Figuring out how to use the web app.

What we learned

We understood how to use databases, specifically spreadsheets to our advantage while making this app. We understood how important it is to be decisive and create an app and promoting it in such a way that it appeals to all ages. In fact, even writing this form, teaches us a lot about what happens in the back end.

What's next for WorkFlex

We wish to add in more genres, and more standard workout plans. Making it more robust and hopefully users will enjoy using it as much as we enjoyed making it.
