Exercise Library Feature Idea

First off, it’s awesome that we can upload our own exercises — it’s a huge plus for personalising coaching programs.

I wanted to share an idea that could make the exercise library even better, both for users and for the growth of the app.

The idea:

When someone views an exercise, they could first see a quick 20–30 second demo video — just enough to jog their memory about what the exercise looks like.

Then, by swiping or tapping, they could open a second, longer video that gives a full breakdown of how to do the movement properly, covering technique tips and coaching points.

Why it would be great:

• Perfect for people who just need a quick reminder — no need to sit through a full tutorial every time.
• Super helpful for beginners or anyone wanting to really nail their form.
• Makes the library feel smoother and more professional.

How it could work when uploading:

When adding an exercise, users could have two upload options:

• One short “demo” clip (20–30 seconds). This can also be the one that loped for the interval training.
• One longer “tutorial” video (detailed explanation).
There could also be an extra option where users upload their own video to get a form check — meaning they film themselves doing the exercise and can get feedback either from a coach or within the app.

Why it’s worth adding:

• Makes the app even easier and faster to use.
• Improves the learning experience, especially for newer clients.
• Adds real value to coaching programs and helps people feel more confident.
• It could also be a strong selling point for getting more coaches and users onto the platform.

I’ve used a setup like this when following someone else’s program, and honestly, it made a massive difference to how much I enjoyed and learned from the experience.

This should be part of the standard part of the app you provide to coaches, no add on fees. I think it could be a real game-changer for this app too.
