Workout generation is harder than it looks
A useful workout generator has to balance exercise selection, muscle coverage, equipment availability, session length, training volume, sets, reps, rest, and exercise order. Building and maintaining that logic pulls your team away from the experience that makes your product different.
Workout API handles the workout layer so your team can focus on onboarding, coaching, retention, and growth.
Build it yourself
- Maintain exercise data and media
- Encode training and fallback rules
- Handle conflicting constraints
- Build save, share, and export workflows
Build with Workout API
- Send goals and constraints
- Receive coherent, structured sessions
- Render with your own product UI
- Add persistence, embeds, sharing, and exports
Your rules, applied consistently
Personalization without giving up control
Use smart defaults for fast generation, then add precise constraints wherever your product needs more control.
Level and goal
Adapt programs for beginner, intermediate, or advanced users across hypertrophy, strength, endurance, and weight-loss goals.
Day-by-day criteria
Define different muscles, movement types, and session constraints for each training day.
Session sizing
Target a number of exercises or define the intended session duration.
Exercise rules
Require key movements, exclude unsuitable exercises, and filter the available pool.
Automatic prescriptions
Generate sets, reps, and rest times while keeping your explicit prescriptions authoritative.
Practical ordering
Receive exercises in a structured sequence ready for a usable workout session.
Developer-first
A clean request. Structured data back.
Use a standard REST endpoint and render the response in any mobile or web stack.
