Overview

The ExerciseSmart widget is a dynamic exercise recommender designed to provide users with personalized workout suggestions based on their input. Built with a powerful backend powered by RapidAPI, ExerciseSmart offers access to a variety of exercise categories, including cardio, Olympic weightlifting, plyometrics, powerlifting, strength, stretching, and strongman.

Users can filter exercises by targeted muscle groups, including abdominals, abductors, adductors, biceps, calves, chest, forearms, glutes, hamstrings, lats, lower back, middle back, neck, quadriceps, traps, and triceps. Additionally, ExerciseSmart supports three difficulty levels: beginner, intermediate, and expert, helping users find exercises that match their fitness level.

Important: Users must select a correct combination of exercise type and muscle group to retrieve valid results. Improper combinations will not yield any suggestions, ensuring users receive relevant and effective exercise recommendations.

Documentation

ExerciseSmart is designed to help users, particularly fitness enthusiasts and personal trainers, discover exercises that align with their specific goals. Users input the type of exercise they wish to perform (e.g., strength training or cardio), the muscle group they want to target (e.g., biceps or hamstrings), and their current skill level (beginner, intermediate, or expert). The widget will then suggest appropriate exercises. This solves the problem of selecting suitable workouts, preventing injuries from doing exercises that may be too difficult, and maximizing the effectiveness of the fitness routine. It's especially useful for users looking to diversify their workouts or for trainers creating customized workout plans for their clients.

Features:

• Exercise Recommender: Provides tailored exercise suggestions based on exercise type, muscle group, and difficulty level.

• Muscle Group Targeting: Offers detailed targeting for muscle groups ranging from biceps and calves to glutes and quadriceps.
• Dynamic Difficulty Scaling: Recommends exercises for different fitness levels (beginner, intermediate, expert).

Limitations:

• Strict Input Matching: The widget requires correct combinations of exercise type and muscle group. Incorrect combinations will result in no exercises being suggested.
• API Dependency: The widget's functionality is dependent on the availability and response speed of RapidAPI, meaning it requires an active internet connection.
• Limited Customization: The initial version does not support custom exercise input or tracking user progress, although these features may be added in future releases.
