Is there an exercise API for personal trainer and coaching software?
Yes. Coaching and personal-training software can use WorkoutDB as its exercise library: ~873 movements with demonstration video, photos, step-by-step instructions, and structured muscle/equipment taxonomy, so trainers build programs from content clients can actually watch.
Fits how trainers work
Trainers think in terms of muscles worked, equipment available, and difficulty. WorkoutDB exposes exactly those as structured, filterable fields, so a coach building a program can search "dumbbell shoulder exercises" and get watchable demos instantly. Clients then see a real video and clear instructions instead of a name they have to look up.
The localized content (EN/ES/PT/FR) means a platform can serve trainers and clients in their own language without extra work, and the consistent media keeps the program library looking professional across hundreds of exercises.
- Filter by muscle, equipment, and difficulty the way trainers program.
- Every exercise has a demo video, photos, and instructions for clients.
- Four languages for international coaches and clients.
- Commercial use included on Pro and Scale plans.
