Workout Planner gives you access to a database of 1300+ exercises, each with the muscles worked, equipment required, and step-by-step movement instructions. Filter by body part, target muscle, or available equipment to build workout routines that match any goal or constraint.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I find exercises by name?

Yes. `search_exercises` does a partial match on the exercise name, which makes it easy to find variations like bench press or squat without knowing the exact ID.

How do I get full instructions for one exercise?

Use `get_exercise` with the exercise ID. It returns the target muscles, equipment, and step-by-step instructions for doing the movement properly.

Can I filter by body part, target muscle, or equipment?

Yes. Use the body part and target muscle filters for the muscle group you want, and `body weight` is treated as the no-equipment option.

How do I find the valid filter values first?

Use `list_body_parts`, `list_target_muscles`, and `list_equipment` to browse the allowed values before you build a workout plan or search query.
