Build a Custom Workout Plan for Any Goal
Create a structured workout program filtered by body part, target muscle, or available equipment.
Find Exercises Based on Available Equipment
Get a full list of exercises you can do with any specific equipment — barbell, dumbbells, resistance bands, or bodyweight only.
Quick answer: Use the Workout Planner tool through ToolRouter to find exercises based on available equipment directly from Claude, ChatGPT, Microsoft Copilot, and OpenClaw — connect once, then drive it with plain-language prompts. No code required.
ToolMost exercise programmes are written for well-equipped commercial gyms that most people don't have access to. Working out at home, in a hotel gym, or with a limited setup means exercises designed for cable machines or Smith machines simply aren't options — and adapting a programme on the fly without knowing the alternatives wastes session time and undermines results.
The exercises_by_equipment and list_equipment skills let you specify exactly what you have available and get back a comprehensive list of exercises you can actually perform. No irrelevant suggestions, no equipment substitutions that compromise the movement — just exercises matched to your real setup.
Home gym owners maximising their equipment, travellers adapting programmes to whatever a hotel fitness centre has, personal trainers programming for clients with different setups, and anyone starting out who wants to get the most from minimal equipment all use this to build effective sessions regardless of what's available.

Claude builds complete workout sessions from your available equipment — not just listing matching exercises, but selecting the right combination to train all the target muscles, sequencing them for optimal performance, and explaining what each contributes to the session. It makes the most of whatever you have.
How to find exercises based on available equipment
Once connected (see setup above), use the Workout Planner tool — the same steps work with Claude, ChatGPT, Microsoft Copilot, OpenClaw, and any MCP client:
- Ask: "List the equipment types available using workout-planner"
- Claude returns all available equipment categories
- Ask: "Find exercises for dumbbells and a pull-up bar only using workout-planner"
- Request: "Build me a full-body session using only these exercises"
Example prompt
Try this with the Workout Planner tool
I have dumbbells (5-30kg), a pull-up bar, and resistance bands. Search exercises for this equipment using workout-planner and build me a complete upper body session covering chest, back, shoulders, and arms.
Tips
- List your specific equipment weights when asking for intensity recommendations
- Ask Claude to prioritise compound movements over isolation when equipment is limited
- Request a bodyweight alternative for each exercise in case equipment is unavailable when travelling
