Workouts App Schema for MySQL using Prisma

Question

I am creating a workout app using MySQL and Prisma, and I am struggling to design a schema for the data.

The app will have users and workout programs. For example a workout program 'Get Jacked', could consist of 3 blocks (each block is 1 month). Each block will contain 5 workouts per week, each workout will contain multiple exercises and a warm up. Some important things to note: each User should be able to record their personal sets and reps for each exercise within a workout. They should also be able to complete a program ('Get Jacked'), as many times as they like and each time they should be able to record new values for their reps and sets.

Here's my models so far:

model User {
  id      Int      @id @default(autoincrement())
  email   String   @unique
  name    String?
  role    Role     @default(USER)
  workouts   Workout[]
}

model Program {
  id         Int        @id @default(autoincrement())
  createdAt  DateTime   @default(now())
  name       String
  published  Boolean    @default(false)
  author     User       @relation(fields: [authorId], references: [id])
  authorId   Int
}

model Block {
  id         Int        @id @default(autoincrement())
  name       String
  program    Program    @relation(fields: [programId], references: [id])
  programId  Int
}

model Workout {
  id         Int        @id @default(autoincrement())
  name       String
  week       String
  day        String
  block      Block    @relation(fields: [blockId], references: [id])
  blockId    Int
}

model WorkoutSet {
  id         Int        @id @default(autoincrement())
  name       String
  sets       Int
  reps       Int
  workout    Workout   @relation(fields: [workoutId], references: [id])
  workoutId  Int
  exercise   Exercise   @relation(fields: [exerciseId], references: [id])
  exerciseId Int
}

model Exercise {
  id         Int        @id @default(autoincrement())
  name       String
}

model LogWorkout {
  id         Int        @id @default(autoincrement())
  createdAt  DateTime   @default(now())
  workout    Workout    @relation(fields: [workoutId], references: [id])
  workoutId  Int
}

model LogWorkoutSet {
  id         Int        @id @default(autoincrement())
  createdAt  DateTime   @default(now())
  sets       Int
  reps       Int
  weight     Int
  logWorkout LogWorkout @relation(fields: [logWorkoutId], references: [id])
  logWorkoutId   Int
  workoutSet     User       @relation(fields: [workoutSetId], references: [id])
  workoutSetId   Int
}

I am relatively new to relational databases and what I can't seem to get my head around is how the recording of the reps ties back to the user and how the user can complete the workout program multiple times.

Any help would be much appreciated.

Thanks, Adam

Your'e getting close, just a couple of recommendations:

Use VSCode with the Prisma extension, it will help you format the relations easily and find errors faster
Declare both sides of the relationships
Try to abstract your DB model into easy-to-understand concepts, that way maintenance will become easier later on

This might be what you want:

// This is your Prisma schema file,
// learn more about it in the docs: https://pris.ly/d/prisma-schema

datasource db {
  provider = "mysql"
  url      = env("DATABASE_URL")
}

generator client {
  provider = "prisma-client-js"
}
