A morning check-in, and a walk that nearly did not happen

hooly

hooly
20 is plenty
hooly
it's the leaving the house bit that's hard, not the minutes

it's not a you problem

you have started before

You joined the gym in January. You bought the app, and maybe the watch. The plan was fine and you were not the problem, because a plan that lives in an app you stopped opening was never going to survive a bad week.

hooly texts you first.

the accountability black hole

You start strong. Life happens, and then it is week three and nobody has noticed you stopped.

no time, no space

Between work and everything else, a plan that assumes a spare 90 minutes is the first thing to go.

the motivation rollercoaster

Some days you could run a marathon. Most days you cannot find your shoes.

getting in

three messages in and you have started

01

text the number.

Send hi hooly, let's begin. That phrase is the door.

02

answer a few things.

How old you are, what hurts, when you wake up. One question at a time, and it keeps what you say.

03

get your first session.

A workout you can finish this week, and a time hooly will check on you.

ears and eyes

talk to it, or just show it

On the way to the gym, hold the mic button and say what you just did. Photograph your lunch and the meal goes in the log. You never have to type out a plate you are already looking at.

A voice note on the way home from the gym

memory

tell it about the knee once

Hooly keeps your injuries, your equipment, your goals and the awkward week you had in March. It will not ask you to do lunges again.

  • injuries come first. a restriction stays a restriction.
  • running mileage goes up by 10% in a week at most.
  • heavy legs and a run never land on the same day.
  • pain, medication, pregnancy or a bad mental health day and it stops coaching and sends you to a doctor.

Hooly is not a doctor and does not pretend to be one.

An old injury, remembered

you
knee's acting up again
hooly
the left one from the november run?
you
yeah
hooly
no lunges this week then, machine work instead
hooly
if it's sharp rather than achy, get it looked at properly

it goes first

you will not have to remember to open it

Most coaching apps wait for you. Hooly starts the conversation about half an hour after you wake, and again in the evening. One question, answerable in ten seconds. Ignore it and the next one gets shorter, not louder.

  1. 07:12

    sleep any better last night?

  2. 21:40

    did the walk happen?

what it costs

7 days free, then ₹999/month
