Generative AI, with a planning brief
Budy uses a generative AI agent to create workout plans from your profile and an exercise catalogue. Its brief includes your schedule, available equipment, health context, preferences, and recent training history. Planning rules define constraints within which the AI makes its choices.
For example, a three-day gym schedule with 20-minute sessions is a different planning job from four longer home sessions with dumbbells. When your week changes, tell Budy and the next plan is built for the new one.
Health context comes before workout ambition
Joint concerns, injury notes, movement restrictions, and health check-ins are passed into planning. The planning instructions prioritize current limits and clinician guidance ahead of goals or workout style; where an effort cap or reduced intensity is supplied, those constraints are part of the brief.
An old injury or your age alone should not automatically mean a lighter plan. Current symptoms and explicit restrictions matter. Be specific about movements you have been advised to avoid, and update that information when it changes.
AI Coach also has a separate check that redirects certain explicit emergency or high-risk requests toward appropriate help instead of generating workout actions. These checks are limited: Budy is a fitness app, not medical screening, diagnosis, treatment, or supervised rehabilitation. Get professional guidance for pain, a new injury, or medical restrictions.
Your recent training gives the next block context
Completed-workout performance, exercise notes, and movements you found difficult or manageable can inform future planning. Recent feedback helps distinguish what fits now from a personal best recorded months ago.
A useful note describes what happened: the equipment you used, the sets you completed, how demanding they felt, or a movement that caused discomfort. Report discomfort rather than pushing through it to satisfy the plan.
