Strength Workout developed by Artificial Intelligence

Strength Workout developed by Artificial Intelligence

Wondering what a strength workout developed by artificial intelligence might look like? I've been dabbling to figure out ways to use artificial intelligence in my everyday life, so I asked Google Gemini to make up a workout. Here was the prompt: create a 20 lb kettlebell and 15 lb dumbbell workout plan designed for a middle-aged woman to build strength in the core, upper body, and lower body. Include a detailed warm up routine and specific stretches for the cool down. Several caveats before you read further. This does NOT replace the advice of a real personal trainer.

Walking in sunshine with Peanut

Walking in Sunshine

I'm finding the motivation to walk again after the winter. It's definitely related to all the sunshine and new flowers that are in bloom.

Higher temperatures have made them open earlier than usual!...
