What is this?
The Exercise Library is a searchable database of exercises that you use when building workouts. It includes thousands of built-in exercises with video demonstrations, and you can also create your own custom exercises.
Why it is useful
Having a comprehensive exercise database means you spend less time describing movements to clients. Each exercise includes muscle group targeting and video demos so clients know exactly what to do.
Use Cases

FAQs
Can I edit a built-in exercise?
No. Built-in exercises are read-only. You can duplicate them and modify the copy.

Yes. When a client taps an exercise during a workout, they see the demonstration video.
Can I import exercises from another platform?
Not directly. You would need to create them manually as custom exercises.
