ExerciseGIF

Exercise animations made from real movement.

Each animation is one real repetition, filmed in a studio and redrawn as an anatomy illustration, so the form is correct and you can see which muscles do the work.

How they are made

  1. Filmed. A trained model performs the exercise in a studio. We cut one clean repetition.
  2. Animated. The filmed repetition drives an illustrated figure, so every joint follows the real movement.
  3. Highlighted. The muscles the exercise works are coloured, and named in plain English and Latin.
  4. Reviewed. Each animation is checked for form, equipment and a seamless loop before it is published.

Questions

Are these real people?
No. The movement comes from real people filmed in a studio; the figure you see is an illustration that follows it exactly.
How long is each animation?
One repetition, usually two to four seconds, looping seamlessly.
Can I change the muscle colour?
The standard colour is shown on the site. Ask us about colours that match your brand.
