A workout app that screens for health risks before building your plan
Training with injuries requires more than swapping one exercise for another. Budy uses PAR-Q health screening, movement exclusion lists, contraindication data, and RPE restrictions to build workout plans that respect your physical limitations from the start.
Quick answer
Best fit
Budy helps users train safely around injuries with PAR-Q health screening, movement exclusions, contraindication-aware exercise selection, and RPE restrictions.

Why Budy fits this need
Budy screens for health risks before generating a single exercise, not after.
PAR-Q health screening built in
Budy runs a Physical Activity Readiness Questionnaire during onboarding to identify risk flags before generating any workout plan.
Movement exclusion and contraindication support
You can exclude specific exercises or movement patterns, and Budy cross-references contraindication data when selecting exercises.
RPE and intensity restrictions
If your health screening flags risks, Budy can cap maximum RPE and apply intensity reduction percentages across the entire plan.
How Budy approaches this need
Budy uses structured health data to shape exercise selection, intensity, and movement patterns.
Why health screening should come before exercise selection
Most workout apps ask what exercises you like. Budy asks what your body can safely handle. The PAR-Q health screening identifies risk flags — cardiovascular concerns, joint issues, chronic conditions, recent surgeries — before any exercise is selected.
If the screening flags risks, Budy can require medical clearance before proceeding, cap maximum RPE across the plan, apply intensity reduction percentages, and add clinician notes to the user profile. This is not a liability checkbox — it is a functional safety layer.
Movement exclusions go further. You can exclude specific exercises by name or entire movement patterns. Budy cross-references each exercise against its contraindication data to avoid prescribing movements that conflict with your injuries.
Modifications and alternatives, not just avoidance
Avoiding exercises is only half the solution. Budy also provides exercise modifications, regressions, and alternative exercises for every prescribed movement. If a barbell squat is contraindicated, the plan might substitute a goblet squat, leg press, or wall sit depending on your specific limitation.
Each exercise in the exercise library includes progressions, regressions, variations, and modifications data. This means the plan can adapt to your injury without losing the training stimulus entirely.
Frequently asked questions
- Does Budy include health screening?
- Yes. Budy runs a PAR-Q health screening during onboarding to identify risk flags and adjust the workout plan accordingly.
- Can I exclude specific exercises due to injury?
- Yes. You can exclude specific exercises or movement patterns, and Budy will avoid them when generating your plan.
- Does Budy replace medical advice?
- No. Budy can flag when medical clearance is recommended and adjust intensity, but it does not replace professional medical guidance.
- Can Budy suggest exercise alternatives for injured areas?
- Yes. Every exercise includes modifications, regressions, and alternatives that Budy can substitute based on your specific limitations.

Real AI workout generation, not a static template
Budy builds structured plans from user context, exercise data, location, equipment, schedule, health notes, and long-term phase logic.
- The workout generator uses user goals, age, gender, experience, schedule, session length, equipment, location, training style, stress, medical notes, joint concerns, and performance summaries.
- Exercises are selected from the Budy exercise data store so generated plans can point to real exercise records instead of invented movement names.
- Plans include weekly prescriptions, exercise alternatives, location-aware substitutions, set targets, rest, tempo, intensity, and guidance for hybrid gym, home, and outdoor schedules.
Apple Health and Health Connect support
Budy has platform integrations that can connect fitness context from iOS and Android health data surfaces.
- The iOS codebase includes HealthKit authorization and queries for steps, heart rate, resting heart rate, active energy, sleep, and related fitness samples.
- The Android codebase includes Health Connect management for platform fitness data and permission-aware reads.
- Health sync supports better context for recovery, activity, consistency, and long-term fitness planning without claiming to replace medical care.
Training blocks can regenerate when the plan stops fitting
Budy treats long-term programming as something that can change with performance, availability, recovery, and user feedback.
- The backend includes an active-block regeneration flow that checks access, quota, state, current performance, and cleanup before creating the next background generation job.
- Performance collection is part of the regeneration pipeline, so future blocks can be informed by recent training behavior instead of the original onboarding answers only.
- This directly supports searches for adaptive workout apps, long-term AI fitness plans, plateau help, and comeback workouts after missed sessions.
