'How to configure XML file so RecyclerView doesn't overlap the rest of the content?

What my layout file currently does:

My layout file after building an app looks like on the picture and before building

What I want it to do:

I want this info icon and "Basic calisthenics progression" to be on top on all devices without overlapping.

What I've tried:

I've tried to add CardView, moving from constraint layout to frame layout, etc, but nothing seems to work and recyclerView still overlaps the header.

fragment_home.xml

Modifying your layout like this might fix the problem

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<FrameLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"
    xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
    android:id="@+id/homeFrameLayout"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="match_parent"
    android:background="#1D1D1B"
    tools:context="com.cuyer.calitracker.View.HomeFragment">

    <androidx.constraintlayout.widget.ConstraintLayout
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="match_parent">

        <LinearLayout
            android:id="@+id/linearLayout"
            android:layout_width="match_parent"
            android:layout_height="wrap_content"
            android:gravity="center_vertical"
            android:orientation="horizontal"
            android:padding="20dp"
            app:layout_constraintTop_toTopOf="parent">

            <ImageView
                android:id="@+id/infoImageView"
                android:layout_width="41dp"
