Thanks to all the below, and to Glide for making a genius product and @JackVaughan for brilliant videos.
Using QuickChart to display historical training data (inspired by @Robert_Petitto):
Using QuickChart to put charts into the image field of a list for added insight into the item:

> So here is the one I did using the Construct URL column… Started off with a URL that looked like: https://quickchart.io/chart?bkg=white&c={.........} There are two query parameters in that URL: bkg=white c={ JSON structure } So I took the whole JSON structure, and put that in a template column: Then defined the Construct URL column as follows: The first query parameter was simple, so I “hard-coded” that, …
Using Make to export workout data for use in another (Tabata Timer) app:

Wait for condition \> Make sure the unique ID column is not empty. Add row \> Add the unique ID column to a row in the destination table.
