📖 Static demo — read-only snapshot

You’re browsing a static build of the Body IQ knowledge graph, so everything loads with no backend. A few things that need the live server are turned off here:

  • Global search (sidebar) is disabled — it queries the API.
  • The JSON API and the API “Try it” playgroundaren’t included.
  • The data is a snapshot — it refreshes only when the demo is rebuilt, not live from the database.

Everything else — the body map, progression ladders, coverage heatmap, exercise finder, and all anatomy/exercise/source pages — works fully. The full app (live search + API + database) runs from the source on GitHub.

Cornerstone Exercises (4)

First-line exercises for this goal.

Nordic Hamstring Curl

Introduce gradually after the acute phase; the high eccentric load provokes marked DOMS and can aggravate a fresh strain if progressed too fast

Nordic Hamstring Exercise
strength · advanced

Introduce gradually after the acute phase; the high eccentric load provokes marked DOMS and can aggravate a fresh strain if progressed too fast

Hamstring and Calf Strengthening
strength · intermediate

introduce Nordic eccentrics at reduced range/load early in rehab to avoid over-lengthening the healing muscle

Towel Hamstring Curl
strength · intermediate

avoid heavy eccentric loading during the acute painful phase; progress range and load gradually

Hip Hinge / Deadlift Pattern

Leg Curl
