Coach / Trainer - ABC Trainerize

We are continually upgrading your fitness app with new features based on your feedback. Please add a new idea, or vote on an existing idea. This ensures your ideas don't get lost and always visible and other users can upvote your ideas. The idea forum allows us to keep a pulse check on what our user community as a whole wants.

Why should I vote?
This forum allows us to more accurately prioritize ideas to ensure a system of fairness by executing on improvements needed more urgently by a larger cohort of our user community, in order of voting priority. It offers you transparency into what we're reviewing, starting and have completed.

Vote subscribes you to the idea so when its status changes, you'll get notified. 

When does an idea get picked up?
The higher the votes, the more likely the idea will be completed but there is no fixed formula if an idea will be picked up as it is just one avenue we look at. The idea forum is only one of the many avenues we use to evaluate an idea's feasibility. We also factor in your conversations with our support team, in-app surveys, Facebook beta groups,  complexity of the idea, talks with our inner circle of users and how it fits with the overall vision of the platform.

For example, "Portuguese support" was for the longest time in our top 3. But embarking on that would significantly dent our ability to serve our primary English speaking community effectively.

Thanks!

  1. Have the option of not having to add a video into a programme

    It would be great if we could just add the notes and not HAVE to also add a video. Or if we could add a video without the option of the reps/sets coming up, just the video explanation.

  2. Ability to have multiple open training phases

    In the training program tab it seems like there can only be one open training phase. It would be nice to have an option of having multiple open so that the client could keep workouts organized like a training phase with all of their flexibility work, a phase for all their core work. And then from the trainer side, being able to still schedule workouts from any training phase past or present. right now you can only schedule things from their current phase.

  3. Put notes on activity and option to add your own activity

    On the app when I have a client do an "activity" it would be nice to have the option to put in my own activity, for example if I'm using a cardio machine that isn't listed, I would like the option of putting in my own. I also think that on the activity metrics like how long they did it or what level, that it would be nice to have a line where you could put in your own, like incline, for example.
    Another thing is that on the desktop version I can put a trainer note on an activity.…

  4. Tidy up exercises and improve selection functionality

    The list of exercises is currently a bit out of control, with inconsistent naming and duplicate entries.

    I would suggest categorising the exercises and creating an organised structure with the following hierarchy:
    - muscle group (legs/arms/torso/etc.)
    - muscle (forearm, bicep, etc.)
    - exercise name (bicep curl, tricep extension, etc.)
    - variations (green machine, cable machine, straight bar, etc.)

    (or similar)
    You should still be able to search terms and these would filter at all levels of the hierarchy, but the results should fit into the categories.

    Obviously a lot of exercises may be part of multiple sub-categories and that's ok,…

  5. Make it so we can see other scheduled workouts on the calendar when we are scheduling them. It was a feature previously.

    In the past, it showed different colors for different workouts that had already been scheduled in the calendar. Make it so once I schedule one workout for the month, it shows up on the calendar when I go to schedule the other workouts so I don't end up doubling up workouts on the same day.

  6. Scrollable Workout, Program etc. Pages instead of multiple shorter pages

    When looking at the Master Libraries or Client's training program you have to navigate through multiple short pages to see all of the items. It would be easier to navigate one long scrolling page.

    Moreover, it is not intuitive that in order to select all of the workouts you have to click the square box and select "select all workouts". The software should be more conservative and easier to navigate.

  7. Add text option for notes on each exercise during a workout.

    Add text option in workout tracker for better notes for progression on each exercise, instead of only having the ability to put numbers. For example: heavy band, green band, short box, 24" box etc...

  8. Exercise Notes

    Recommend a notes section for any exercise when building a workout. This allows the trainer to add modifications, options, and safety tips that the client can use inter-workout.

  9. Only allow for certain exercise substitutions

    When setting up a master program, I would like to have it so that only certain exercises can be substituted for the exercises in the program.

    Example: I want clients to be able to sub cable exercises for the equivalent resistance band exercise but nothing else. Allowing clients to substitute for the entire master library not only can’t guarantee them the best, most effective work out but it also put us as trainers at risk if they were to pick something above their level.

  11. Automatically generate weights based on percentages using the clients 1 rep max numbers

    If I design a program that is using a percentages based progression structure it would be great to be able to enter (ex. 65%) and based on their 1rep max numbers the app automatically generates the load (ex. 200 lbs) in the program for that exercise.

  12. plate calculator

    An in app calculator for loading plates would be awesome! A lot of clients don't have a grasp on what plates to load to = the weight programmed. For example say an exercise was set for 185 lbs ---- it would inform clients "45 lbs plate and a 25 lbs plate" would = that. So much time is wasted from their workouts trying to do the mental math would benefit them greatly.

  17. Filter custom added workouts

    We should be able to filter all of the exercises available by the ones we have created. So I don’t have to search through all of the built in exercises to find the ones I specifically added.

  18. Need a dedicated weight field when creating a workout plan

    Right now, each exercise added to a Workout only has one field for sets and one field for everything else, Weight/resistance, reps, special notes/instructions.

    This is far, far too limiting. Especially in the case of weight/resistance. All of my clients are demanding to know what weight to use, especially because this can vary depending on total reps assigned. They are thrown off when Trainerize shows them previous max weights, which is not always applicable to a given workout. (For example, if we had an in-person session where I figured out their 1RM with them and logged this, it later shows…
