The Creator was rebuilt in September 2026. Your own exercises now live on the My Exercises tab of the library panel. See What's New in the Creator for a summary of what changed.
Alongside the Rehab Guru library you can build your own exercises, using your own images and video. There are two ways in: create one from scratch, or duplicate an exercise from the library and adapt it.
Finding your own exercises
Open Creator from the sidebar and click My Exercises in the library panel on the left. The two buttons at the foot of the panel are Create exercise and Request.
Creating or requesting an exercise from the library panel
Create exercise makes an exercise in your own account. Request asks the Rehab Guru team to film one for the main library. See Requesting a new Exercise be added to the Library.
Creating an exercise from scratch
Click Create exercise. A panel opens on the right with three numbered sections.
1. Details
Give the exercise a name, add Tags so it can be found by the library filters, set a Difficulty, and write the instructions your client will follow. The Generate button drafts the instructions for you from the exercise name, which you can then edit.
Naming a new exercise and generating its instructions
2. Media
Add up to ten images, in JPG, PNG, WebP or GIF, up to 15 MB each. Drag the files in or browse for them, and use the arrows on each image to set the order they appear in.
For video you have a choice: Upload video takes an MP4, MOV or WebM file up to 100 MB, and Use hosted video lets you point at a video that already lives elsewhere.
Adding images and video to a new exercise
At least one image or video is required before you can save.
3. Access
Team permissions control whether colleagues can view the exercise, and whether they can edit and delete it. These are set by your team manager, so they may be locked.
Tick Exercise media contains patient details if the images or video show a real client. This associates the exercise with that client and stops it being reused for anyone else by accident.
Setting team permissions and flagging patient media
Click Create exercise at the foot of the panel and it appears on your My Exercises tab, ready to add to a programme like any other.
Duplicating a library exercise
If a Rehab Guru exercise is nearly what you want, duplicating it is quicker than starting again. You keep the original images, video and instructions and change only what you need.
On the Search tab, click the ... menu on the exercise and choose Duplicate.
Duplicating an exercise from the Rehab Guru library
The copy lands on your My Exercises tab, where you can edit it. The original library exercise is untouched.
Editing, favouriting and deleting your exercises
On the My Exercises tab, the ... menu on each card offers Expand, Add to favourites, Edit and Delete.
Options available on your own exercises
Edit opens the same three-section panel you used to create it, with everything filled in. Change the name, tags, difficulty, instructions, media or permissions, then click Save changes.
Editing one of your own exercises
Deleting is permanent. If you delete an exercise you created, you will have to make it again.
To work on several at once, click Select at the top of the panel, tick the exercises you want, and add, share or delete them together.
Changing an exercise inside one programme only
If you only want to reword something for one client, you do not need to edit the exercise itself. Add it to the programme, then use the ... menu on its row to Edit title or Edit description. That change applies to this programme alone.
If you decide you want to keep the edited version, choose Save to my exercises from the same menu and it becomes one of your own exercises.
