Finalized on recipe finding API:

b/c weight lifting would require a lot more code and work that surpasses this class and goes into CSA

Different and better-suited API for this project:

https://spoonacular.com/food-api

Began code for importing JSON data:

class UserAPI:        
    class _CRUD(Resource):  # User API operation for Create, Read.  THe Update, Delete methods need to be implemeented
        def get(self, ingredients): # Create method
            api_key = '84cfe45628de456c87a13a80b76f5bd8'  # Replace with your Spoonacular API key
            url = f"https://api.spoonacular.com/recipes/findByIngredients?apiKey={api_key}&ingredients=" + ingredients
            response = requests.get(url)
                data = response.json()
                return jsonify(data)
