Roast my workout tracking website

Hey all! This is my first production launch ever. I simply wanted to use cursor, create something that I'd use and launch it.

https://notebell.com/ is a simple workout tracker with some charts, statistics, and a simple calendar view to plan your workouts. I know it would work better as an app, but I'm thinking that a website is enough to try some of my ideas.

It is paid only but has a 30-day money back guarantee so you can easily try and get a refund afterwards.

Looking forward to your feedback/roast/ridicule anything.


  • The features hard to read, make it bigger..
  • Footer: 2023? Your Company?
  • You are wasting the large area at beginning, put something there to immediately let users know what's this site.

Damn, quick and to the point. Thanks a lot stranger. Will do the fix ASAP

Oooh this looks SO good!

I'm actually getting back into working out since I can walk again (really bad accident last year and have been in physical therapy for over a year to relearn), and I'm so excited I've been cleared to go back to kickboxing.

When I finish an escape room narrative for a client and get a little more financial cushion, I'll buy it. Getting too many refund requests can hurt you in the long run (and get your account shut down if you're using Stripe or have them not pay you out til after a holding period since you'd be considered a risk btw).

One thing that isn't clear: Is it desktop/browser only or is there an app? And if there's an app, is it Android & iOS compatible?

I REALLY love the undertrained muscle groups feature! I know I struggle to target everything and could use insights/reminders for that.

That it's a simple tracker is great, but I'm curious if you're also going to include a video library of workouts/routines eventually. I think that would pair really well with the undertrained feature. Like a weekly/monthly roundup of the undertrained muscle groups then a link to exercises to target them that could be seamlessly integrated with your product.

(Also, you could partner with someone like Hampton with Hybrid Calisthenics as a sponsor & someone to share workout routines.)

Anyway, I'm sure I'll have way more helpful/practical suggestions once I buy it and try it out. :)

Hey @cat Thanks so much for taking the time to post.

Thanks for the refund note, I didn't know it. Maybe I'll remove for now.

For now it's desktop/browser only since it was faster for me to develop and test (I have some familiarity with webdev but none with apps). I will try to find a quick way to make this native and upload to a store if traction picks up. I tried it today in the gym though and safari seemed to handle everything fine. Didn't lose data or randomly refreshed as I was afraid.

video library/instructions is something I'd like to add (if I find a good enough dataset to use for free or buy cheaply). Otherwise I'd have to commission some animation work or film my own vids (both of which would be later in the timeline)

The weekly/monthly roundup is an awesome feature. I'll add it on the backlog.

Again the fact that you wrote such a lengthy answer keeps me motivated so thanks a lot. Glad to hook you up with a coupon for 50% off anytime you want and keep in touch after you try it to improve it based on your feedback.
