I dont think I said "random", but a randomized routine that meets criteria absolutely works, and you dont need AI for that. I dont think anyone said "AI" at all until you just now either.

Detecting plateau isn't too hard either, which is when you would get a suggestion to change an exercise or set of exercises in a routine, or a new routine. Which is where change of angle comes in - its about the exercise being performed.

Can someone do it themselves? Sure, it just takes more work. Which is kind of the point here - you can make a list of exercises that hit a muscle or muscle group just fine without software, which is what this software does. The next logical step is a system that handles routine options, too.

Even with consistent goals you need to change your routine around.

Edit: and if you're injured, you should be meeting with a doctor/pt for any workout information. No system is going to know how to deal with that sensibly.

You're right. I'm not sure where I got that from. Seems weird to me now as well. As if I was replying to the wrong comment, sorry for that.

Ot's true what you say on the other part :)
