Coach my running from my real Garmin and Strava data

A runner replaced uploading Garmin screenshots into AI with a self-hosted agent on a Mac mini that reads his Garmin data (sleep, HRV, resting heart rate, VO2 trend, laps) through MCP plus his Strava uploads: it messages him at 8am, designs the day's run and writes it to Garmin Connect, then grades each session against the prescription when it lands on Strava and decides when training load goes up. He hit his sub-20-minute 5K goal about a month later, and it saves him the hour a week he used to spend planning.

The AI made my meditation album. I play it in Plexamp.

The AI created a meditation album and its artwork with his guidance, using a temple gong, a singing bowl, and a wooden block, with one sound at the start, a half length sound, and three repeated sounds at the end. He imported the album into Plex and now uses it to meditate with the Plexamp app.

Coach my marathon prep and keep my fundraising on track

Reality-TV personality Cory Wharton documents training for the NYC Marathon using his AI 'Anthony', set up as a world-class marathon coach (#metapartner video). Anthony provides his weekly mileage plan, sends check-in notifications, tracks completion in a Marathon Prep Tracker (shown progressing 8/10 to 10/10 miles), and helps strategise fundraising that reached $11,309.52 — 282% of his $4,000 goal for the Children's Heart Foundation.

Ran a 30-day 'train like a pro fighter' program via AI coach

MMA creator Nina Marie Daniele (verified, 5.3M followers, 48K likes) set a 30-day goal to train like a pro fighter; the AI assigned an AI coach 'Drama Queen' who built Day 1-7+ programs (warm-up, 5 interval sprints with 1-min rests, tire lifts, assault bike), recommended a 40g-protein tempeh grain bowl, and tracked a low sleep score of 45. Her final interval time beat her prior best (7:42 vs 8:48).

The AI analyzed my whole genome in 30 minutes for about $5

A Stanford doctor gave the AI his own genome file and a 180 word prompt based on the framework his team published in 2009. In about 30 minutes for about $5, the AI matched the main findings of that team’s work, flagged genes that affect how he responds to some medicines, and warned that his file did not have enough data for disease risk scores.

My agent built me dashboards from my Samsung Health numbers

Commenting on the 26 use cases post, he says he has the AI building dashboards from all his Samsung Health metrics. He has one for weight, BMI and body fat percentage, another for daily steps, a third for exercise, and a separate one with gas gauge style dials showing weight loss, daily steps, exercise minutes and activity calories burned. He shared screenshots.

Merge LoseIt and Garmin into one daily health dashboard with AI

A commenter describes a local desktop app the AI helped him write: a script runs daily to pull his LoseIt nutrition and Garmin workout data into a local database, and an MCP link lets the AI review each day in a small browser UI, give advice, and plan runs or swims toward his goal of losing 40 pounds.

Watch my doctor's cancellation queue and grab a same-day slot

Dan Peguine's the AI watched his fully-booked doctor's cancellation queue and booked a same-day slot when an opening appeared. The case reached X as a quote-post by Meta executive Alexandr Wang, so the amplifier is promotional even though the underlying report is a user's own.

The AI checks on me every day while I quit smoking

She kept forgetting to log her own progress, and failing. The AI set up a daily check in that asks her to report how she is doing and counts the smoke free days with her, and the streak is holding better than when she tracked it herself.

HealthPartly worked

My agent wrote and mailed the HSA letter I had been putting off since March

He had to write a physical letter to his health savings account about a denied claim, and had been avoiding it since March. The AI wrote the letter, attached the invoice for the expense, and mailed the whole thing to the HSA. His only job was taking over for the $2.31 payment. Whether the claim was then paid is not stated in the comment.

This only partly worked. Worth knowing before you try it.

Sync my Oura data - and go easy on me when I slept badly

When every Oura MCP server turned out unmaintained, the AI suggested a simpler design - a SQLite database with a cron sync - and built it. Now he's experimenting with injecting his sleep score into his agents' startup, so they give simpler, less demanding responses on days he's not all there, down to gentler perfume samples.

Built a travel workout plan from her hotel gym's equipment (Day 1

LeAura Luciano messaged her agent 'mini me' while traveling, asking for a workout plan fitting her travel schedule and available equipment. The AI produced Day 1 Upper / Day 2 Lower sessions with specific exercises (goblet squats, dumbbell RDLs, cable woodchoppers, incline treadmill walking), which she performed in the hotel gym.

HealthWent wrong

My agent called my dentist to book a checkup but could not finish without my insurance details

Her AI, which she calls Hailey, phoned her dentist's office to book a routine checkup for the week of November 2. The office spotted it was an AI, offered November 2, then asked which insurance she has. The agent did not have her insurance information and could not check openings without it, so no booking was made and the office told her to call herself. She shared the full call transcript.

This one went wrong. See what happened before you try it.

Create my swim, bike, run, and gym workouts on my watch

A triathlete uses a Garmin MCP through AI Desktop - forked because the stock version couldn't build his workout types - so the AI creates and schedules his swim, bike, run, and gym sessions, pushing them to his Garmin calendar, which syncs straight to the watch on his wrist.

Planned a marathon training week (Sept 28-Oct 4) around his coaching schedule

Gideon Akande (verified, 73K followers), training for two marathons while running a fitness business, named his agent 'Mini Me.' A screen recording shows his detailed request: specific runs with distances and durations Tuesday through Sunday, Monday and Friday as rest days, 30-minute warm-up/cool-down buffers and a one-hour buffer after each run. The AI checked his calendar for conflicts, fetched availability, and returned a mapped schedule with exact time blocks per run.
