#### Transcription (Edited for Readability)

This is how to create a Max Rep Stations style workout. An example of a popular workout with Max Rep Stations would be something like Fight Gone Bad—three rounds, one minute at each station, across several movements.

To start, navigate to the **Plan** page where workouts are built for your gym. You can access it via the URL `btwb.com/plan/calendar` or through the new Admin Console.

Once there, select the desired date on the calendar (e.g., Saturday, April 5th). Click the date to enter **Day View**. Confirm the view and date are correct.

Click the **blue Add button** and select **Workout**. The builder page has two options: the **AI Workout Builder** and the **Classic Builder**.

Using the AI Builder:

* Enter the workout format: "Max reps per station every one minute for 3 rounds: row calories, air bike calories, double unders"
* Click **Continue**, and the AI will generate the workout.
* Once satisfied, click **Plan Workout**.

To manually build the same workout:

* Click **Add**, then **Workout**, then select **Use Classic Builder**
* Choose **Max Rep Stations** template
* Set number of rounds (e.g., 5)
* Set time per station (e.g., 1 minute)
* Add movements like kettlebell swings (assign weights), box jumps (assign height or let users choose), and burpees
* Optionally, add a **Rest Station** between rounds
* Click **Plan Workout** to save

You can now see both versions—the AI-generated and manually created workouts—in your calendar.

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters:

```
GET https://btwb.gitbook.io/btwb/planning-workouts/workout-types/max-reps.md?ask=<question>&goal=<user_goal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `automate deployments from our CI pipeline` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
