Scrape the full American Council on Exercise (ACE) public exercise library — professionally authored exercises with step-by-step instructions, target body parts, equipment, difficulty levels, images, and authoritative ACE attribution.

What It Does

This actor crawls acefitness.org/resources/everyone/exercise-library/ — ACE's curated database of several hundred exercises, categorised by body part and equipment. For each exercise it extracts:

• Name — exercise title as authored by ACE
• Body Part — target body part(s) (e.g. "Abs, Back, Butt/Hips")
• Equipment — required equipment (e.g. "No Equipment", "Dumbbells", "Resistance Band")
• Difficulty — level (Beginner / Intermediate / Advanced)
• Steps — full ordered step-by-step instructions
• Image URLs — exercise photographs
• Source URL — canonical page URL
• Author Attribution — always "American Council on Exercise (ACE)"

Use Cases

• Fitness apps — populate structured, professionally authored exercise databases
• RAG / LLM pipelines — ingest provenance-verified exercise content (ACE is a named certification body; its content carries more credibility than crowd-sourced datasets)
• Health content platforms — authoritative how-to descriptions authored by certified fitness professionals
• Personal trainer tools — program-building databases with credible sourcing
