Workout Planner: Gym Workout Tracking Web App

Our valued client belongs to the fitness industry, aiming to develop a gym tracker platform to simplify performance tracking for users and easy management of the workouts and gym members for the gym owners.

Challenge:

Developing a user-friendly and centralized web-based workout tracking web app to help individuals track their scores and enhance productivity. A platform that allows the Gym owner and Coach to create exercises and workout plans.

Some of the project's Key challenges were:

• Gympass and Wellpass API Integration: We linked Gympass and Well pass systems so users can easily join gyms and check-in. Data is kept up-to-date through Webhooks in the Workout Planner web app.
• PDF Generation using QuestPDF: We created subscription and SEPA invoices in PDF format using C# classes without needing extra tools. This matched the client's needs while following software rules.
• Background Email Sending Without Third-Party Libraries: Our team found a way to send 300+ emails in the background without buying outside tools. This satisfied the client's data worries and ensured efficient email delivery.
• Crossfit API Data Conversion: Converting and structuring raw workout data from Crossfit API into usable C# classes for integration into Workout Planner. Overcoming the challenge of unclear API responses and creating a reliable data converter.

Solution:

Considering the client’s requirements, we have developed a web-based gym workout plan & log tracker that helps individuals track their workout routines. This gives effortless access to the Gym owner and a Coach to add workout plans and exercise models. Overall, it helps to log workout results and improve the fitness performance of the individuals.
