The community is at 1,116 members. The big news: Athlete AI Labs opens Monday, October 12 for the founding cohort. The free community stays free. Building and training with your own data should always be free. Labs is where you build the app or AI agent you always wanted.
What Labs is
- A 4-week challenge where you build the fitness app or AI agent you always wanted, and get it onto your phone
- 35 step-by-step videos from idea, to PRD, to a working app, to App Store submission
- Every build prompt in order, ready to copy and paste. No code background needed
- Mobile and web tracks, so you can ship to the App Store, Google Play or the web
- Weekly live build calls and office hours
- Two 1:1 reviews: one on your MVP scope and one on your PRD
- A launch and growth track, with a Demo Day at the end
- A network of athlete founders building next to you
What we built last week
- Pacing Grindstone 100: what I learned crewing and pacing a friend through a mountain 100 miler overnight
- The new COROS Pace 4 Pro: what is new and how it compares to Garmin
- COROS MCP write access: your AI can now push workouts back to your watch, not just read your data
- Strava + Claude injury prompt: have Claude dig through your training history to find what is driving an injury
- My AI coaching stack: the full breakdown. The main difference from the 7-Day Challenge build is a Supabase database, so my agent can read, write and adjust things remotely
Coming this week
- Balancing lifting with endurance training
- A free GitHub repo that can replace a WHOOP subscription
- Gear and product news: clearing the backlog
- An overview of Meta's Muse agent
- A talk in Philadelphia on building your own AI fitness agent
Community notes
- Growth: 1,116 members, up from 1,039 two weeks earlier.
- Hevy: members weighed in on a possible partnership and the answer was clear. Conversations with their team are next.
- Most Miles in a Month: September wraps this week and a group is rolling straight into October.
- Poll: what app would you build?
