Hey, that plate is a mixed bag. The AI can flag a bad lift, but it’ll still let you lift the wrong way if you ignore the data. It’s great for tech lovers who love to see numbers, but it doesn’t replace good old coaching or that gut feeling of a solid set. VR training? It’ll give you great visual feedback and immersive drills, but you’re still stuck in a room with a headset. The muscle memory it builds isn’t the same as feeling the burn on a barbell or a kettlebell. Think of it as a complementary tool, not a full replacement—unless your future self prefers a workout in the middle of a cityscape that you’ve never visited. Keep an eye on the hype, but don’t let it replace real movement.

Sounds solid—data for curiosity, feel for muscle. Keep the headset for the quick mental flex, not the full grind. Happy lifting, and keep your skepticism on the scale.
