Idea Validation

Hello everyone! I'd like to get opinions about this idea before starting to work on it.
as a person that attends gym regularly, i oftentimes doubt if i do the exercises right. so i thought of this idea of making an app with a feature that scans how you do an exercise and tells you if it's wrong, and if it is, explains how to do it and shows visually. i dunno if this idea is worth starting or not as that'd be a big project, so i'd like to get opinions from people. what would make you use the app? do you have suggestions? i appreciate honest answers :)

    In my town getting a gym subscription with a coach is super expensive, such an app would be super useful!
    But keep in mind many people would rather watch YouTube videos or ask around how to do the exercise correctly
    Btw a similar product already exists specifically for rowing, they sell directly to rowing clubs (rowerup) (I'm completely unrelated to this product, this isn't self-promotion)
