Actions
Steps a workflow can run in ExerciseDB.
- List exercisesRead the catalogue, optionally narrowed to names matching some text.
- Search exercisesSearch when you do not know the exact words. The match is fuzzy across names, muscles, body parts and equipment, and results keep their relevance ranking, best first.
- Get an exerciseGet one exercise in full: its GIF, the muscle it targets, the muscles it also works, the body part, the equipment and every instruction step. Takes an exercise id or a name.
- Find an exercise by nameTurn an exercise name into its record without guessing. A name matching several exercises is refused with the candidates listed rather than resolved to an arbitrary one.
- Get how to do an exerciseGet one exercise's instructions, numbered and ready to send, with the demonstration GIF and the muscles worked alongside them.
- List exercises for a body partEvery exercise for one area of the body, matched exactly rather than fuzzily.
- List exercises for a muscleEvery exercise that works one muscle, either as the muscle it targets or, if you ask, as a supporting one too.
- List exercises for a piece of equipmentEvery exercise that uses one piece of equipment. Answers what can be done with only a kettlebell, or with nothing at all.
- Filter exercisesFind exercises matching several criteria at once. More values in one field widens the search, a second field narrows it, so chest or back with a barbell or dumbbell means exactly that.
- Get random exercisesDraw exercises at random, optionally from a narrowed pool. Set a seed to make the draw repeatable.
- Build a workoutPut together a workout spread evenly across the areas you name and limited to the equipment available, so six exercises over chest, back and legs gives two of each.
- Summarise the catalogueSee what the dataset holds: every body part, muscle and piece of equipment with how many exercises carry it, commonest first.
- List body partsThe ten areas of the body the dataset files its exercises under. These are the values the body-part filters accept.
- List musclesThe fifty muscles the dataset names, target and secondary alike.
- List equipmentThe twenty-eight kinds of equipment the dataset names, body weight among them.
- Check the API statusAsk the health check whether the service is up, to gate a longer workflow or to confirm the connection works.
