The Isometrix concept turns workout history into clear body-focus and strain signals to help active people plan more consistent work across the body.

The problem

Workout history left training load hard to see.

During research, participants ages 18–34 repeatedly described the same gap: their fitness tools could record a workout, but offered no simple way to see how often each body-focus group was being used across the week.

That missing layer made it harder to build a plan. College athletes and highly active people could repeat familiar patterns without recognizing uneven load, overuse, or fatigue until it began affecting performance.

The insight

Make the invisible pattern visible before the next workout.

The opportunity was not to add another activity log. It was to translate past activity into a forward-looking decision: what has received enough work, what may be carrying fatigue, and where the next session could create a more balanced week.

Across the four-week sprint, I worked within a team of three and owned the logo, interface design, typeface selection, and wireframing—turning our shared research into one consistent product language.

Experience model

Plan. Train.
Review. Rebalance.

Each workout contributes to a simple strain picture organized by body focus. The weekly view makes allocation understandable at a glance, while the planning layer is designed to help users identify uneven allocation before the next session.

02TrainRecord work against each focus group.
03ReviewSee cumulative allocation and strain.

The outcome

A four-workout week with more consistent allocation across the body.

The concept reframed training data as a teaching tool. Instead of asking users to interpret a list of completed workouts, Isometrix gave them a simple visual language for understanding strain, adjusting their plan, and supporting long-term strength.

This coursework case study presents the product strategy and intended user outcome. Research included 30 participants. The four-workout week is a design goal; usability results and changes in training behavior have not yet been documented.
