Build a workout plan from equipment, days, and injuries you actually have—not medical advice.

Last verified: 2026-09-07

Not medical advice and not physical-therapy or return-to-sport clearance. If you have an injury, pain, or a condition, ask a clinician before you follow a plan. Do not invent equipment you do not own.

Fine for a constraints note you already keep in Docs.

Protocol

  1. List constraints, not a fantasy gym (3 min).

    Paste days/minutes, equipment you own, experience level, and injuries/pain in your words (e.g. “left knee hurts on lunges”). Do not add a barbell you do not have. Do not paste full medical records.

  2. Lock “not medical advice / no invented gear.”

    Paste the rules first. The model may not diagnose or tell you to train through pain.

    Copy-paste prompt

    Draft a workout plan from my constraints.
    
    Not medical advice. Not PT. Not a diagnosis. I will stop if something hurts and I will ask a clinician about injuries.
    
    Hard rules:
    - Use only equipment, days, minutes, and injury notes I provided.
    - Do not invent a gym machine, a PR, or a body-fat number.
    - Do not diagnose or tell me to ignore pain. If an injury note conflicts with a move, swap or mark ASK CLINICIAN.
    - No supplements, no extreme calorie advice.
    
    Output:
    1) Weekly calendar (day · minutes · movements from my gear)
    2) Swaps if a move hits my injury note
    3) Progression I can measure without invented maxes
    4) ASK CLINICIAN flags
    
    Confirm the rules, then wait.
  3. Generate the week and read the flags.

    If ASK CLINICIAN appears, do not treat the swap as clearance. Then send:

    Generate command

    Here are my days, equipment, and injury notes. Build the plan. Do not add equipment. If a movement conflicts with my notes, swap or mark ASK CLINICIAN. Not medical advice.
  4. You still warm up and stop when it hurts.

    Print the week. If you want a session card for tomorrow only, use the block below.

    Tomorrow’s session card

    Write tomorrow’s session as a checklist from the approved plan only. Include minutes. No new exercises. Repeat the not-medical-advice line at the top.

When not to

  • This is not medical advice, not PT, and not clearance after injury or surgery.
  • Do not invent a squat rack or a 5-day split you cannot calendar.
  • Do not train through chest pain, dizziness, or a clinician’s restriction.
  • Skip this recipe if you need rehab. See a licensed professional.
