I spent a lot of time brainstorming and putting this together yet it’s doing worse than all of my unplanned videos. Any idea why?

There's two huge problems imo.
The idea is good if you modify it. "I Tried X's Workout" (don't use this title, it's bad). X being a famous athlete or fictional character. Saitama from one punch man, Mike Tyson, etc. People like to see what the human body can do. Supersize me, Mr. Beast's I fasted for 30 days, there's countless examples of extreme human challenges. You don't need to go that far, but even a "I did as many push ups as I could for a month" would make me curious to click. Something fun and silly is great. Diet works too. "I ate cabbage with every meal for a month". And it's you progressively hating cabbage more and more, trying to come up with ways to stomach eating it. Just random ideas that fit the niche.
It needs an intro where you clearly lay out what the workout is, the journey of how difficult the workout is/what surprised you, and then the conclusion for what you learned and if you succeeded. Make it into a story.
