This is good. Some things I think you should consider:

- Get users (hah, easier said than done of course).

- Comments will help people find variations (not everyone has the same equipment, or have physical issues that require a variation of the workout, comments will fill that void).

- Split this up into categories (core, legs, etc)

- Link this stuff to YouTube videos (it’s just easier to watch someone doing it with proper form)

- Last but not least, become an app. A routine is a checklist, so make it so people can hit ‘done’ on a completed rep, maybe input the weight lifted. Track it, charts.

- If you don’t do any of this, I’m going to.

I’ve been sitting on a similar idea for awhile too, a friendly threat.
