Coach / Trainer - 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!

What can we improve or add for the coaching client or gym member ?

  1. Option between metric and imperial, use ml or grams instead of ounces

    All of the recipes are measured in cups, an option for grams and ml would be ideal

  2. Simplify recipes

    The recipes look great, however, I think can be off putting for someone who is short on time.

    If there were an option for simplified recipes that would be a massive help.

  3. Show macro breakdown per meal (not just calories)

    Make macro breakdown per meal vs just total added? For example - here there's are 2 meals added. Overview page lists calories, but once you have more than one meal, you can't see what made up the macros, or where they came from. If a client (or myself) wanted to see where the carbs were coming from (whether it be as an education tool or just to see what was carb dense), we can't tell what foods made up the total carb count and how much. Yes, it's on the single items info when it is being added, but trying…

  5. Client Scheduling (for brick & mortar gyms)

    Right now we use Zen Planner (have been using it since 2016) for billing and member self-scheduling/reserving class times. I would love to be able to have our in-person coaching classes available in a calendar for members to book reservations for classes and sessions within Trainerize (instead needing to use Zen Planner).

  7. Change the servings to grams, cups, tablespoons etc.

    Have the ability to change the serving size to 1 gram, 100 grams, cups, tablespoons etc and easily allow us to change the number of servings like in my fitness pal.

    For example

    Serving size - 1 gram
    Number of servings - 115 (allow us to put whatever number we want)
    115 servings of 1 gram = 115 grams.

    I use this format in my fitness pal whenever "1 gram" is available it allows my clients to basically be as accurate as possible when weighing their food.

    We would basically not need my fitness pal if this gets changed ASAP!

    Hi everyone,



    Thanks for your great suggestion! We’re marking this idea as completed!


    Clients can now switch to cups, oz, grams as alternative serving size measures for more accurate tracking.

    Clients must update to App Version 7.16 in order to use the feature.

  8. Take away $1000 limit in Trainerize Pay

    A few of our products are over $1000 and in Trainerize Pay we have to send the client 2 invoices of $500. If the limit of $1000 was lifted we wouldn't have to send multiple invoices.

    Thanks for your great suggestion! We’re marking this idea as completed!


    You can now move your Trainerize Pay to a Stripe account and directly connect it to Trainerize.

    With the Stripe account,
    - you do not have the $1000 limit.
    - you get lower rates (Stripe’s official rates)
    - flexible payout schedules
    - full access to Stripes dashboard and reporting

    Simply go to your Payments page and hit Switch. You can create a new account or connect your existing Stripe account.

  9. Multiple clients for small group virtual training or live class video calls like zoom

    like you have the 1on1 training appointments but what about for group training?
    Like 3 or more people all on video as I demonstrate and then watch and Coach them as they perform the exercises

    Hi everyone,

    Thanks for your great suggestion! We’re marking this idea as completed!


    The ability to do in-app group video calling is now in beta.

    If you would like this feature turned on to try it out, please let us know via this form:
    https://survey.survicate.com/21715b5fc4c9f567/?p=anonymous

    Also, we will provide you with extra credits to try out the group video calling.

    The app layout is designed for the trainer /client in mind where the trainer’s video feed is larger and at the forefront for clients.

    Each client on the call is counted as a separate video calling stream So a 1 hour video call with 4 clients will take 4 hour credits.

    Currently you have to book the clients in so it’s great for small group training.

    We are working on the ability for your clients to self-book into virtual classes. These ideas may interest you. Please add your vote to…

  10. Allow a video loop to keep playing while the timer keeps running

    Allow video playing while the timer keeps running.

    For Interval training is a big handicap to stop the timer to see the video...specially fot HIT workouts that need short bursts and flow.

    Is reaaly a big issue, many clients left the app due to this problem!
    Please check this option ASAP ! Thanks in advance

Thanks for your great suggestion! We’re marking this idea as completed!


    The new interval timer with looping videos is slowly rolling out but you can manually turn it on via your settings > Advanced > Enable New Interval Workouts. Currently the looping videos are only for Trainerize videos only.

  11. Schedule appointments with multiple clients for team, or small group training.

    With the new Beta Appointments feature, it would be nice to add the ability to schedule appointments with multiple clients for the same day/time. Currently, you can only schedule one appointment with one client at a time. But if I want to schedule an appointment for 2 sisters who both train together at the same time with me, I can't add them both.

    Perhaps another idea is to allow appointments to be scheduled for groups and not just individuals, so that if I have more than one person training with me at a particular time, I can see that reflected…

  14. New nutritional breakdown is awful

    New nutritional breakdown is awful - we now have to click 3 times to view breakfast, lunch and dinner each day for a client, multiplied by 50+ clients is a lot more time added to a working day. It is clunky and not user friendly at all.... PLEASE change it back!

  15. Built-in meal plan generator/builder that gives meal plan with recipes and shopping list

    You pick a certain diet for them and from there can be a library of recipes to pick from like the workouts but for food. Then be able to swap out foods or change parts of their meal plan directly in Trainerize.

    Something like myPTHub or evolution nutrition. Keep everything under one roof.

    This should be viewable on the calendar without having to download an old-school PDF.

  18. Better Display for food brands

    Instead of putting the brand of the food on the same line (making it look like a very long run on sentence), it would be nice to have the brand displayed underneath in a lighter font color (like the serving size amount is displayed).

    To be able to quickly acknowledge them without having to send a full message! Just like on FB or IG, to be able to simply "Like" that they checked in for cardio.
