Importing data via .json into react native with Redux

I made a workout app and I'm using Redux to save all of the sets and workouts. Right now I hand typed all of exercises into Redux data to test things out. I have all of the exercises in a .json file and I wanted to import it into the app so users would have access to them.

Would I need to import the .json file into Redux or different part of the app and then somehow give redux access to them? I confused because users would select the exercises and they can add descriptions, change number of sets and reps (which are all in Redux).

Edit

I'm new to coding hence why I haven't gone through the api route. I just want to get the beta version out. Also they are thousands of exercises in that .json file and that's why I haven't manually entered them into Redux.

You can read your local JSON file like this and then access exerciseData like a normal JS object

const exerciseData = require('./exerciseData.json');
