What changed, why it changed, and what still needs work.

August 15, 2026: advertising privacy and page protections

• Expanded the Privacy Policy with Google AdSense cookie, identifier, personalization, and opt-out disclosures.
• Documented the Google-certified regional consent message and the advertising choices it presents.
• Limited the AdSense loader to public educational and policy pages.
• Kept advertising code off the personalized workout planner, offline utility, and private owner dashboard.
• Confirmed that body weight, disability notes, body-area selections, exercise loads, and repetitions are not sent to Google as advertising-targeting data.

August 14, 2026: content quality and transparency review

• Published a founder-written account of why the project exists and what firsthand experience does not qualify the site to claim.
• Published the planner notebook with worked examples and a direct mapping from assessment answers to workout decisions.
• Added visible review dates and clearer authorship to educational guides.
• Expanded navigation so original methodology, updates, and planner logic are not hidden behind the workout form.
• Limited crawler access to private owner reports, API routes, and the offline utility page.
• The exercise library now uses 97 original, equipment-specific start-and-finish illustrations instead of externally hosted photos.

This work followed an AdSense low-value-content rejection. The changes are intended to make the website more useful and transparent for people, not to claim that approval is guaranteed. Google makes the final decision about participation in its publisher network.

August 12, 2026: duplicate-exercise and mobile corrections

• Prevented repeated chest, triceps, back, biceps, and lower-body movements inside the same generated day.
• Fixed a stale weighted card that could remain after switching from a cable gym to no weights.
• Corrected mobile workout controls that extended beyond the screen.
• Checked all four targeted days across all four facility categories for six distinct movements.
• Added a permanent redirect for an outdated free-weights guide URL reported by Google Search Console.

August 4, 2026: trust, indexing, and content standards

• Published the Marine veteran origin story with a clear statement that the site is not healthcare or treatment.
• Added the methodology page, privacy policy, terms, contact information, and original training guides.
• Made ads.txt publicly crawlable and added AdSense ownership metadata.
• Added a sitemap, search verification, and source links for general training and safety guidance.
• Replaced point markers on the body diagram with anatomical muscle shading.

July 31, 2026: accounts, progress, and offline use

• Added Google and email sign-in for people who choose to save progress across devices.
• Kept plan creation available without requiring an account or subscription.
• Added a compact PDF workout chart instead of printing the entire website.
• Added two-week body-weight check-ins and progress-based cycles with a four-week minimum.
• Added tracked equipment alternatives with their own sets, repetitions, loads, rest, and pictures.

July 24, 2026: first public version

The first version launched with a simple promise: remove the confusion of choosing a workout. Users could enter body and goal information, choose three to five training days, select a facility type, and receive a targeted routine. The original version exposed several problems that later updates addressed, especially exercise visuals, mobile behavior, substitutions, account saving, and progression.

Known limitations

• The site cannot observe exercise technique or inspect the equipment being used.
• General body-area filters cannot diagnose pain or create individual rehabilitation.
• Exercise sketches show start and finish positions but cannot communicate every part of timing and breathing.
• Machine weight labels and cable resistance can differ across facilities.
• Automated load suggestions depend on accurate user-entered effort and repetitions.
• Advertising approval, search ranking, and fitness results are not guaranteed.

Report a broken feature, misleading sentence, accessibility problem, or exercise mismatch through the contact page. Include the page, exercise, facility type, and expected result when those details apply.
