w0ts0n··on De-AMP: Cutting out Google and enhancing privacy
>hijacking people's personal brands to collect money without their explicit knowledge is a bad thing.

Brave gave users BAT to tip content creators. They tipped it, if it wasn't claimed in 90d, Brave returned the BAT to the pool. There was no collecting money. It was Brave's promotional BAT and it never actually left Brave's possession unless claimed.

The issue was that it wasn't clear if the creator had or hadn't signed up. Which was fixed within 48h.

Edit: Try now, fix is out.

we are working on pushing a fix out shortly. Stay tuned.

We are aware of the issue. We have a fix pending.

You can click the stretch option at the top.

I believe that is still your abdomen. Just the lower part. You would get that v-shape by first gaining muscle and then reducing body fat.

Wow nice find. I'll fix this soon.

Not specifically for pelvic floor. However, I think you work the pelvic floor with most glute based exercises.

Things like glute bridge, hip thrusts and of course deadlifts.

Should be good now? Spinning up more servers as we speak. HN hug of death :)

That's on my hit list next.

We don't have a fasting guide on the site. I think you clicked an ad.

This is the feedback I've had from a lot of people. My wife being one of them.

Thanks for the suggestion. I actually should have this solved soon. I have a backlog of videos to edit that will populate the missing pages.

A problem I have with the site is I want to keep it EXTREMELY simple.

How do you envision this working, with the current UI/UX?

w0ts0n··on Select a muscle and it provides the exercises to workout the selected muscle
They fixed it for me.

Thanks atoll. Hope you are well <3

Interesting. I believe there are some exercises listed that work extensors. Reverse curl and wrist extensions: https://musclewiki.com/Exercises/Male/Forearms/2

Perhaps I need to bring one of those to the first page.

Just prefer to keep the site with no 3rd party dependancies. If something goes wrong/down I know where to look.
w0ts0n··on Select a muscle and it provides the exercises to workout the selected muscle
Yeah. Dumbbell section was added a few months ago. I have about 150 videos left to edit, upload and write instructions for. All of the dumbbell exercises being about 50 of those videos.

Yes! I've used various friends over the years but now I'm using friends who are professionals working in a gym in LA:

You are right though, it is very time consuming process and sometimes we get it wrong and have to go back and re-film. I have a pretty big backlog to edit and upload. It's a slow going process. Seeing this on HN has motivated me to do some extra work this weekend.

Thanks OP for sharing my website!

Please be gentle with me. This is a project website that I built out of frustration a few years ago. I know there are things that need improving and a lot of things that could be adjusted. I work full time at Brave Software (brave.com) and simply don't have time to put a ton of effort into MuslceWiki.

I do however have a big backlog of videos to add and I've slowly been working on an app. We have also re-drawn the homepage images and my long term plan is to move away from gifs to webm or MP4.

FWIW, for some reason I was unable to log into my HN account. I made a new one, but the posts seem to be limited. So looks like I'll be replying in the morning.

You'll notice I have them weighted. I put compound lifts with the max weight (100) so they will be shown first.

When I first made the site, my wife asked me if I had videos of women doing the exercises. So I added them. Simple as that.

OP didn't make this. This is my site. But thanks. No SEO tricks. I just wanted to make the site.

That's coming very soon. (the image will change based on selection of male/female) as will the gifs.

Yup! That's pretty much one of the end goals. I need a dev on board really (and I'm searching)
w0ts0n··on Show HN: MuscleWiki – A fitness website using gifs
1) Agreed. Right now until I can find someone who knows how to dev. I'm trying to keep the page to 4 movements per page (to helping any loading issues). It'll come for sure though, we also have it filmed.

2) Cleans IMO is quite a complex movement. I'm looking to apply an "advanced" button on the homepage sometime soon that will enable people to select more advanced movments like this (and deadlifts, but I feel they were too important not to include) 3) For sure!

Thanks for the feedback. This has been in my mind as a site for such a long time, I'm glad to actually have people seeing it.

Today I launched MuscleWiki. The goal of this website is to make a easy to use, to the point, exercise guide. Version one enables people to click a body part and then get quick loading, high res gifs. No 10 minutes intro explaining, no super low resolution.

I plan on expanding this into male/female/home/gym/kettlebells/etc options that users can check. I also plan on opening the site up to the community to develop trusted sources of information.

I also want to add tools (things like macro calculators and one rep max estimate)

I am not a programmer. I have done this to the best of my ability working in an ops background. It leveraged mediawiki, bootstrap and had my friend draw the graphics to get where I am today.

w0ts0n··on Those making $1,000+/month on side projects – what did you make?
I have a few small joke websites that run on a vps. I set most of them up as a kid. www.downloadmoreram.com is around $500 m/o on it's own.
