You download another "AI" fitness app. Answer the same ten questions. Get the same generic "personalized" plan. Proxima is different, it actually learns you over time. The program you're running in month six looks nothing like the one you started with, driven by your actual performance data. It remembers. It adjusts. It grows with you. For self-coached lifters tired of templates that ignore your injuries, your work schedule, and your bodyweight - this is what you've been looking for.
I was inspired to build this product after being a winner at the Supabase Select Hackathon at Y Combinator in October 2025 for building an AI Agent Personal Trainer MVP called SupaBuff. I had played around with the idea that AI was being under-utilized and most Fitness apps were focused on the mobile UX and not the quality of the intelligence layer for program creation and personalization. It is now integrated with the Hevy fitness app and has had almost 20,000 site visitors, and 2,000 signups.
finally, something that acknowledges fitness isn't static. your capacity changes based on sleep, stress, work travel, recovery. been using generic programs that assume I'm always at 100%. how does Proxima handle those weeks when life gets crazy and you can only manage 2 workouts instead of 4?

The month six plan looking nothing like month one is the right promise. Self-coached lifters stick on the same block until they hate it, then switch for no good reason. what actually triggers the adjustment in Proxima?. Plateau detection, RPE trends, missed session patterns, or something more continuous in the background?

Who hunted Proxima?
Proxima was hunted by Jack Hanlon. A “hunter” on Product Hunt is the community member who submits a product to the platform — uploading the images, the link, and tagging the makers behind it. Hunters typically write the first comment explaining why a product is worth attention, and their followers are notified the moment they post. Around 79% of featured launches on Product Hunt are self-hunted by their makers, but a well-known hunter still acts as a signal of quality to the rest of the community.
