Gainz – Gamified Fitness Tracking App

Gainz is more than a fitness tracker — it’s a fitness game. The goal is simple: make working out fun, rewarding, and addictive through smart gamification and consistent feedback loops.

Core Concept

RPG-Style Progression

• Pick a class (Monk, Gladiator, etc.), each with unique stat growth paths.
• Log workouts to earn XP and level up.
• Achievements, milestones, and dynamic upgrades form the main “game loop.”

Dynamic Quests

• Quests turn workouts into structured missions.
• Completing them grants XP, boosts, or in-game rewards.

Challenge Your Friends

• Add friends to unlock leaderboards, guilds, group quests, PvE challenges, and PvP duels.
• Cosmetics, gifts, and events keep the world feeling alive and competitive.

Practical Fitness Tools

Core fitness features stay useful and grounded:

• Workout libraries
• Record tracking
• Manual tracking All seamlessly tie back into the game mechanics.

Why Build This?

Most fitness apps are passive: they track, record, and store—but rarely motivate. Gainz bridges that gap by making fitness fun, competitive, and social. Instead of just logging workouts, users feel the satisfaction of progression, leveling up, and “playing” their fitness journey.

Tech Stack & Approach

Gainz will be built with a modular, iterative workflow:

• Frontend: React Native
• Backend: Rust
• Database: PostgreSQL
• Architecture: RESTful API with independent frontend/backend development
• Testing: Continuous feedback loops + usability testing + prototype refinement

Prototyping will start in Figma, move to interactive testing, and finally transition into full feature development.
