We have chosen FitBod for this case


01 Outcome
The outcome of this analysis is focused on how to extend Fitbod’s vision which is “Workouts that improve as you do”.
02 Available Opportunities & Validation
One of the areas that is a white space opportunity is logging free weights exercises. It is an integral part of every gym goers routine. There is no easy way to log these exercise activities outside of a pen and paper.
I’m a regular user of this app after having tried several methods (specify details) to log my exercise routine. I have also introduced this app to 10 people regular people in the gym and 2 Iron Man Athletes who have become advocates.
03 Alternatives and Assumptions
Motivated to get into better physical shape;
It will not work for people who are not focused on health
Alternative is a
Personal Trainer

04 Roadmap
The product roadmap describes the set of problems that will be taken up Now, Next and Later based on jobs to be done (see below); In reality other factors like customer feedback and infrastructure need to be factored in.
