- Workout Data: paste JSON or CSV rows directly
- Workout File: upload a saved CSV or JSON file

## Frequently asked questions

### What data format does the tool accept?

The tool accepts raw JSON or CSV text pasted directly into the input box, or you can upload a saved .json or .csv file.

### What columns or fields should my data include?

For the best results, include fields such as day, exercise, sets, reps, rest, notes, and videoUrl.

### How do the QR codes work?

If your data includes a 'videoUrl' field and you enable the QR code option, the tool automatically generates a scannable QR code next to the exercise linking to that URL.

### Can I track my workout progress on the PDF?

Yes, by checking the 'Include Progress Boxes' option, the generated PDF will include empty check boxes next to each exercise for manual tracking.

### What page sizes are supported for the PDF?
