How to create a Custom Exercise

Add custom exercises from the Builder or the Exercise Library to personalize your programming.

Written by Lauren Johnson

You can create custom exercises in two areas within Bridge:

  1. Directly from the Builder while building out your programs.

  2. By manually adding exercises in the Training Library, either in a large batch of multiple exercises, individually in the exercise library, or directly importing from YouTube.

Adding your own exercises allows you to personalize programming and include media, tags, and equipment details for easier organization.


Option 1: Create From the Builder

This method lets you add a new exercise while building your program.

  1. In the Builder, click Add Exercise.

  2. Begin typing in the Exercise name. If the exercise does not already exist, click Create New Exercise.

  3. Take things one step further and add exercise details.

When creating or editing an exercise, you can enter the following information:

  • Exercise Name

  • Description

  • Default Parameters

  • Add Tags

  • Add Media - You can upload videos and capture still images to help athletes understand the exercise.

Click Save when finished.


Option 2: Add From the Training Library

The Exercise Library lets you create exercises individually or in bulk. You can also import exercises directly from YouTube.

Creating Multiple or Upload One Exercises at Once

The fastest way to add exercises to your library:

  1. Navigate to Library > Exercises.

  2. Click New Exercise in the bottom left corner.

  3. Select Create New Exercises to open the bulk creation popup.

  4. Type exercise names into each row, or paste a list of names.

  5. Add videos, equipment, tags, and parameters for each exercise.

  6. Click Create Exercises to add them all to your library.

  7. To clear a row you don't need, click the X icon at the end of that row.

Tip: If you have a list of exercises in a spreadsheet, you can copy the exercises and paste them and they will automatically fill into the cells.


Editing Exercise Details After Creation

Once exercises are in your library, you can update their details directly from the exercise library: edit names, add videos, manage equipment and tags, or change parameters.
