Exercise Database
An exercise library with videos, muscle maps, progressions, and safety data for every movement
Quick answer
Every exercise in Budy carries over 40 data points: primary and secondary muscles, difficulty level, required and alternative equipment, space requirements, video demos in multiple qualities, step-by-step instructions, safety tips, common mistakes, progressions, regressions, variations, modifications, and contraindications.
Budy builds its exercise library with structured data that powers intelligent plan generation.
More than a video library
Most exercise libraries are just video collections with a name and a muscle group label. Budy goes deeper. Each exercise is a structured data object with over 40 fields that the AI uses when building your plan.
This includes measurement type (reps, time, distance, weight, or calories), default set and rep ranges, rest times, tempo guidance, whether the exercise is unilateral, whether it requires weight, space requirements, and estimated calories per minute. This data is what allows the AI to build intelligent, balanced programs.
Progressions and regressions for every level
Every exercise includes a progression path — harder variations for when you are ready to advance, and easier regressions for when you need to scale back. This is how Budy keeps your plan appropriate as your fitness level changes.
The library also includes exercise modifications for specific limitations and alternative exercises based on equipment availability. If your plan calls for a cable fly but you are training at home, the alternative might be a resistance band fly or dumbbell fly depending on what you have.

Why Budy fits this need
Every exercise in Budy is a rich data object, not just a name and a video clip.
Muscle targeting data
Every exercise maps primary and secondary muscle groups, so you know exactly what each movement trains.
Progressions, regressions, and alternatives
Each exercise includes harder progressions, easier regressions, variations, and equipment-based alternatives.
Safety and contraindication data
Exercises carry contraindication data, safety tips, and common mistakes so the AI avoids prescribing movements that conflict with your health profile.

Explore the Budy features related to this page and follow the links for more detail. Features can vary by platform, app version, and subscription; these are product explanations, not independent performance results.
Exercise demonstrations alongside your workout
Available exercise videos sit alongside written guidance, alternatives, and workout tracking so you can understand the movement before logging a set.
- Open an exercise to review its available demonstration, instructions, equipment, and alternatives.
- Keep sets, reps, weight, time, rest, and notes connected to the session you are following.
- Download supported videos before going offline. Not every exercise has a video, and a demonstration is not a live form assessment.
Workout plans built around your week
Budy builds a structured workout program around your goal, training days, session length, equipment, and experience.
- Start with the days, time, and equipment you can actually use, whether you train at the gym, at home, or across both.
- Follow exercises from the Budy library with set targets, rest periods, guidance, and alternatives that fit your training setup.
- Add relevant limitations when setting up your plan. These inputs help tailor the program; they are not a medical assessment.
Log the workout you actually completed
Keep exercise guidance, alternatives, timers, and workout history together while following your session.
- Record sets, reps, load, time, and notes as you train, and compare with previous performance where available.
- Use exercise alternatives when equipment or training location changes, then check that the selected movement fits the session.
- Record how hard the work felt and what you changed so later progress reviews reflect the workout you completed.
