• no one has posted yet - I'll come back later and leave a comment :)

• Epic - Publish Novella | Started reading through it again. Will definitly need a little rework.

• Got the refresh working and a logo done for Random Hiit. Logo is terrible, but gives me something to build upon and I really only spent a few minutes. Also used the app for another workout. Great because it's exactly what I wanted personally. If I didn't do anything else with the app, I'd be content.

• Read more of my novella. Create a feature list for the app and some sort of game plan/roadmap

AUGUST;
Release https://trackmylift.app by end August. (On track)

YESTERDAY;
Yesterday I actually got nothing done. I had no time o hustle apart from like 1hour which I used cleaning up bugs.

TODAY:

• view workout modal done and dusted with deletion.
• "buy us a coffee" modal popup done
• some tidy ups and UI edits

Next on the plan is making the view popup editable from the main "my workouts" page. From the dashboard I'm gonna keep it clean with no edit functionality so it's very focused and directed at literally reading your upcoming workouts.

After that I'm working on the user profile as well as social sharing.

KUDOS
@ItsSteve for the upvotes

EPIC: By end of August, have validation conversations with 5 potential customers
YESTERDAY: Sent 400+ cold emails; scheduled one call
TODAY: Sent another 400+ cold emails. No responses other than "No thanks" so far.

I plan on continuing to send cold emails every work day until I can get some solid validation data. Open rate is 40%+ which is artificially inflated; click rate (example videos) is 2+%.
