About this episode
In this episode, Mukund Murali discusses the creation of PMW Fit, an offline workout app that prioritizes user privacy and effectiveness over data collection.
Most fitness apps are designed to keep you scrolling, not training. They want your data, your subscription, and your constant attention. In this episode, I'm sharing why I built PMW Fit — a completely offline workout builder with zero data collection, no account required, and no subscription fees. PMW Fit gives you three workout builders: Strength Training, Cardio, and Target Muscle workouts. Design your sessions exactly how you want them, get guided timers and audio coaching, and train anywhere without an internet connection. Available now on Google Play Store. Search "PMW Fit" or visit pedalmyway.com Topics covered: Why most fitness apps prioritize engagement over effectiveness The three workout builders and how to use them Privacy-first design: what it means and why it matters Who PMW Fit is for (spoiler: cyclists, athletes, and anyone tired of bloated apps) How to download and start training today Links: 🔗 Google Play Store: PMW Fit Website: www.pedalmyway.com Youtube: @pedalmyway Instagram: pedalmyway Bluesky: @pedalmyway.bsky.social Tiktok: https://www.tiktok.com/@pedalmyway More at pedalmyway.com | PMW FIT app free on Google Play
