3 Ways AI Improved My Training 

Apr 9, 2026

As a seasoned fitness enthusiast with a background in Exercise Science, I never thought AI could elevate my training. However, when I think back to the start of my fitness journey, I remember wishing there was an easier way to train with intention.  

When I was new to the gym and had no idea how to program workouts, fuel for performance, or train with proper form, like so many others on their fitness journey, I learned through a combination of trial and error and YouTube. 

Fast forward, and my wish has come true: MYCO by Zing Coach, an AI coaching platform that offers personalized workouts, nutrition recommendations, and 24/7 on-demand coaching. Here are 3 ways MYCO has changed the way I train. 

Built My Confidence 
We’ve all had a moment in the gym when we want to try a new exercise or machine but may be too embarrassed because we don’t know the correct form or how to use the equipment. MYCO provides step-by-step instructions for completing an exercise, along with a visual aid, so users can compare their form to what is shown on screen.  

• Explanations for nearly all standard fitness equipment 
• Direction for barbell exercises 
• Train alone safely and confidently 

Digital Log for My Workouts 
MYCO helps me stay organized with training, no matter how complex the workouts become. Logging my training has never been easier, since MYCO tracks each exercise completed, along with the number of sets and repetitions. At the end of the week, I can look back and see my progress, along with detailed strength scores for my upper and lower body. When training, you will also have access to the following: 

• Custom Workouts 
• Fitness + Movement Assessments  
• Activity Streak Tracker 
• Active Recovery Workouts 

Customization 
One of my favorite parts of training with MYCO is that it takes the guesswork out of training. I know exactly what my schedule looks like at the beginning of the week, which helps my workouts be efficient. Whether I am training for an event like HYROX or want to implement my own workout structure, MYCO has me covered with its custom settings. It allows me to go in and set the number of sets, reps, intensity, muscle-group focus, and session duration. I am also able to classify the type of training from the following options: 

• Strength
• HIIT
• Calisthenics
• Stretching
• Recovery 

Whether you are brand-new to the gym or a seasoned pro, MYCO is a great tool to incorporate into your training. With greater visibility into your workouts and a coach that is built for you, training has never been easier. Start your free 30-day trial here to see personalized training in action.
