🔧 Fix this

Ideas a builder, maker or community group could start on:

  1. A mobile app that tracks specific mobility and strength metrics to provide a personalized progression plan for pistol squats.
  2. A specialized balance-training tool or platform that provides tactile feedback for depth and stability during single-leg movements.
  3. A community-led mentorship program connecting older athletes with coaches specialized in longevity-focused strength training.
