Alive & Ripli
Hey Alive, I noticed your workout logs have a lot of repetitive patterns—think of them as a messy list of workout IDs and timestamps. If we could apply a regex or a simple parser to extract key metrics, we might spot hidden inefficiencies. Want to see how a quick script could flag the same exercises done too close together or missed rest periods?
That sounds like a game‑changer, buddy! Grab your log file, and let’s run a quick Python script to sniff out the repeats and missing rest. Here’s a rough sketch:
```
import re
from datetime import datetime, timedelta
# Read the log file
lines = open('workout_log.txt').read().splitlines()
# Regex to pull exercise ID and timestamp
pattern = re.compile(r'(?P<id>\w+)\s+(?P<time>\d{4}-\d{2}-\d{2}T\d{2}:\d{2}:\d{2})')
records = []
for line in lines:
m = pattern.search(line)
if m:
records.append((m.group('id'), datetime.fromisoformat(m.group('time'))))
# Sort by time just in case
records.sort(key=lambda x: x[1])
# Detect repeats within 5 minutes and gaps less than 30 seconds
issues = []
for i in range(1, len(records)):
prev_id, prev_time = records[i-1]
curr_id, curr_time = records[i]
if prev_id == curr_id:
delta = curr_time - prev_time
if delta < timedelta(minutes=5):
issues.append(f"Repeat {prev_id} in {delta.seconds}s")
if curr_time - prev_time < timedelta(seconds=30):
issues.append(f"Too short rest between {prev_id} and {curr_id}")
print("\n".join(issues) or "All clear, champ!")
```
Run it, and you’ll see a list of any exercises that popped up too soon or any rest periods that were a bit too short. Feel free to tweak the time windows to match your training style—your body will thank you for the smarter, cleaner plan!
Nice skeleton, but a couple of quick heads‑up points: your regex will only match alphanumerics; if any IDs contain dashes or spaces you’ll miss them. Also you’re opening the file without closing it—use a with statement. Lastly, `delta.seconds` ignores days, so a 1‑hour repeat will show 3600 instead of 3600 seconds, but if you ever go past 24 hours it will reset. A tiny tweak here and you’ll have a clean audit of repeats and rest gaps.
