Herniated disc made me build a back-safe kettlebell app

I herniated a disc in 2023 and spent months in physio. Once cleared to train, standard workouts kept tweaking my back, especially when fatigue hit and my form broke down.

I love EMOMs because they make time fly and push my limits without overthinking. Built this generator to combine that structure with exercise selection that won't wreck my back. It excludes american swings, russian twists, and movements that combine loaded spinal flexion with rotation. The algorithm prioritizes anterior-loaded movements (goblet squats, front rack work) based on McGill's spinal loading research.

React 19 + Tailwind + Capacitor for iOS. Lifetime unlock is the main option because nobody needs another Netflix subscription. There's also a low-cost monthly if you want to try premium features without committing.

Not medical advice. This is what worked for my transition from rehab back to lifting. Curious to hear from others: what was the hardest part of getting back to training after disc issues?
