View workouts side by side in a weekly view on calendar so I can see entire programming
When writing our programs, it would be great if we could write a whole program (multiple days), on a single screen. Having to jump between screens (workout to workout) to make sure we're keeping reps, sets consistent and programs balanced is a bit of a pain and very time consuming. If we could jump on one screen to write out entire program (or at least most of it), I think the software would go next level for us at our facility!

I’d like to suggest an improvement to the workout programming view for coaches.
It would be extremely helpful if the programming interface worked more like a planner-style board, similar to Microsoft Planner. For example, having a clear overview of all training days in a client’s week (whether that’s 3, 4, or 5 days), where exercises can be easily dragged and dropped between days - just like moving tasks between buckets in Planner.
This kind of visual overview would make it much easier to structure and balance workout splits across the week and ensure proper distribution of muscle groups. Coaches could quickly adjust exercise placement between sessions without needing to open multiple views.
Ideally, the workflow would look like this:
• A planner-style overview showing all workout days and exercises for the week
• Ability to drag and drop exercises between days directly in that overview
• Clicking into a specific workout only when detailed edits are needed (sets, reps, rest, etc.)
• Then returning to the same full weekly overview after editingCurrently, we need to click into each workout individually just to see its contents, and then click again to edit it. This makes it difficult to maintain a clear overview of the weekly split and often requires multiple tabs and a lot of back-and-forth navigation.
A more visual, drag-and-drop planning view would make programming significantly faster and more user-friendly for coaches.

While building a program it would be nice to see entire plan instead of just one workout so you can see what you’ve programmed. Instead of going back and forth from workout A, B, C to see what you put in.

Another feature that’s been planned 4 years ago. But still no feature.

I see comments on here since 2018 and this is still in the PLANNED stage?

Ok. This was first brought to the table in 2014. It has 921 votes at this time and appears to be "Planned" on 6/13/2021. That is nearly 2 years ago. Is this happening or not? If not, I'm gonna have to move to something different. An update on where this is in the process would be fantastic!

How has this not been implemented??

It would be very helpful for regular check-ins if you could see the client's entire training program at a glance (in a list view) and make changes to reps, etc., right there, like in the progression spreadsheet. But not just for one workout but for the entire plan.

Any time line on when this will become available?

It would be cool if you could see all week and what is on every day of that week, what exercises, cardio, kcal etc. :)

FANTASTIC idea. Because of this I was on a brink to leave Trainerize :(

Hi Trevor, I think they mean like 'truecoach style' programming. There, when you want create a completely personalised program, you open the client's calendar and just start typing the workouts/exercises in there. So for example: it's a 4 week program with 3 days splits (push, pull, leg) and the exercises the same, you can easily navigate back to days using the calendar, very visual and straight forward this way. (I hope I am making sense :) ) I used to use true coach because of this function, but they were missing so many functions that you guys have so I switched :) Thank you

It's extremely time consuming to try to write an 8, 12 or 16 week program. It needs to be easier to track previous workouts and progress current workouts. I need to be able to write workout progressions without using the calendar. We write progressions based off of the previous workout. The specific date is irrelevant. It would also be great if the weights entered during a regular " workout" would actually save, so you could use that info without having to write a complete program.

In calendar mode - it would be awesome to be able to hover over a workout and be able to see what the workout is at a glance. That way you don't have to click the workout and go to a whole other page if you are just trying to get a sense of what the program is doing. Especially if you created the program a while ago.

Build weekly workout plans side by side like PTDISTICTION.

Display The Workout Days (Weekly Phase) Next to each other so all 7 Days can be seen when programming.
Its very difficult to program having to keep going out to view other days.
TRUECOACH does this very well. -

This would be quite an improvement alright... At the moment this is probably the most annoying part when creating programs.
I've also tested out MyPTHub and PTDistinction and they both have a very nice drag and drop workout builder where you can see all workouts for the program phase (or for the week, I can't remember exactly since it was a while ago that I've tested them).
My suggestion is to have all workouts from a programming phase shown side by side (in different columns) and be able to drag & drop exercises from one workout to another, in case you want to switch things up without deleting and inserting the exercises again.
And when searching for exercises you could add a separate window that pops up next to the workout column that you are currently working on.
This feature, along with the option to group exercises from a workout based on their purpose (Warm-Up, Stretching & Mobility, Effective Workout, Cooldown, Cardio etc.) would take Trainerize leaps ahead in terms of programming.
Hope you guys can do something about this in the near future. Love the app and I'd love to see it grow even more and get even better!

Hey team, is there any plans on implementing this in the near future?
