Movement vs Trainerize for a personal trainer who wants their own branded app?

I’ve heard good things about the fitness-native features like the workout builder and progress tracking — that’s something general community tools lack. Just make sure you’re on the Business plan for the app store listings.

Spent a whole morning trying to get a stump grinder to start before I saw the fuel line was unplugged

Oh man, that lawn mower thing is brutal. I had a similar moment with a blender that just would not turn on, and I tore the whole thing apart looking for a jam or something. After like 45 minutes I realized the safety lock on the lid wasn't clicking in all the way because there was a single grape stem stuck in the notch. Felt like I'd just reinvented the wheel wrong or something.

My cake layers were always lopsided until I saw a random comment about using wet paper towels

Are you sure about the water pan being better? I've tried both ways and found the towel method gives a much more forgiving environment for the bread. The steam from a pan of water tends to condense on the top of the loaf too much for me, making the crust gummy instead of springy. And with the towel trick, you just have to make sure the towels are wrung out really well - almost dry to the touch, not soaking. That way you get the humidity without the direct moisture on the dough itself. It's a delicate balance but once you get it right, the results are hard to beat.

Feedback from my manager that totally changed how I write emails

Oh man, that's exactly what I needed to hear too. I started doing the same thing after a client missed a deadline because they didn't read to the end of my email.
