About Go Exercise
From the official readme · v1.0.1Description
Health and Fitness is a popular activity, but there aren’t many WordPress plugins available to help quickly store and publish exercises.
A plugin Designed specifically for the small gym owner. Create exercises for your members and display exactly which areas of the body they are working.
SEO ranking is important so exercises are displayed using schema.org mark-up.

Navigate to the Tools -> Import screen.
Under WordPress you may need to install the importer.
If already installed, run the importer.
Browse to the downloaded file.
Click the ‘Upload file and import’ button
On the next screen from the drop-down select box assign the imports to an existing Author.
Important
Check the box marked ‘Download and import file attachments’
The muscles will begin importing. If the install fails due to timeout issues, simply repeat.
