Building the Exercise Database the Industry Deserves
TheFitnessDB is a solo effort to build a structured exercise data platform for developers, coaches, and rehab teams.
Our Mission
The goal is simple: make exercise data easier to trust, easier to integrate, and easier to use in real product and coaching workflows. That means prioritising structure, safety context, multilingual support, and honest launch sequencing over placeholder claims.
The Founder
Cristian
I'm Cristian, a solo founder building TheFitnessDB from Spain. The project grew out of a frustration with generic fitness databases: they are shallow for developers, awkward for coaches, and weak on safety context. I'm building the first release in public, one durable surface at a time.
Where We Are
2025
Project Started
Research, data modelling, and the first product direction work started.
Early 2026
3,300+ Exercises Catalogued
The core exercise dataset, waitlist flow, and the first public launch pages are now in place.
Summer 2026
Early Access Opens
The next milestone is opening the first public data surfaces and onboarding early users carefully.
Building in Public
Right now that mostly means shipping the public site, refining the waitlist, and tightening the launch surfaces so they describe what is real. Longer written updates will follow once the first blog posts are published.
