The content creator, who uses the handle @mrnda.thats.me, recently opened up about how she uses artificial intelligence to create custom weekly workouts for herself.

Miranda explained that she has been using to platform to create custom workouts aligned with her fitness goals for free with great success.

‘If you’re like me, in this current economic climate, you probably cannot afford an actual personal trainer,’ she said.

‘You maybe can’t even afford the gym right now. Maybe you don’t even have any workout equipment. This will still work for you. I’m living proof.’

Miranda used the app’s green-screen function to pull up the exact workout plan prompt that she submitted to ChatGPT.

She asked the platform to ‘act as [her] personal trainer’ and create a ‘detailed weekly workout’ to help her reach her goals.

The artist said she wanted to build strength and improve her cardiovascular health while toning her legs, abs, and arms and growing her glutes.

Miranda described herself as a 26-year-old female with mild chronic back pain and knee injuries, saying she would like to strengthen the muscles supporting her knees, back, and core.

She was specific with her request, noting that she ‘dislikes burpees’ and wanted to ‘incorporate some Pilates exercises’ into her workouts.

‘This is what it spits out,’ she said, pointing to the weekly workout plan ChatGPT generated for her based on her request

Miranda said this is one of several instances she uses ChatGPT to make her ‘life a little easier’ and ‘to fill in the gaps’ when she ‘can’t afford certain things’

After sharing details about herself, including her likes and dislikes, she listed the workout equipment that she has access to daily.

Miranda explained that if you plan on going to a gym, you can write: ‘I have access to full gym equipment.’

Finally, she wrote how many days a week she wanted to work out, when she planned on resting, and how much time she was willing to dedicate to her workouts.

‘This is what it spits out,’ she said, pointing to the weekly workout plan ChatGPT generated for her based on her request.

Miranda acknowledged that she had to make a few tweaks after she was initially given Pilates exercises in every workout, which she didn’t want.

‘So you will find you may have to clarify certain things to it,’ she said. 

‘You can come back to this and be like, “My goals have changed… Can you create me a new plan?” Or, “I have new equipment can you incorporate that into this plan?”‘ she added. ‘So it’s very flexible.’

Miranda said this is one of several instances she uses ChatGPT to make her ‘life a little easier’ and ‘to fill in the gaps’ when she ‘can’t afford certain things like a nutritionist or personal trainer.’

‘Obviously, Chat GPT has errors and it’s not a perfect substitute for any of those things,’ she added. ‘So, of course, if these are things you need to consult with your doctor on, I recommend you doing that.

‘For someone like me, just looking for somewhere to start, I think this is a great tool and a great option.’
