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!

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

  1. Allow ability to send out automated texts or messages

    My clients prefer texts as the means of communication
    Automated texts would be amazing.
    It would be great to be able to personalize their name with a generic message
    'Hi Sarah'.... Then same motivational message everyone else gets

    Hi everyone,

    Thanks for your feedback. With the latest upgrade with our new messenger, we’ve now added a complete 14 day onboarding message journey you can automate to increase initial engagement and up your long term client retention.

    Additionally there are many more event-based automated messages like when a client completes their first workout, etc.

    For more information, you can see our help article here:

  2. we need a way for our clients to be able to "check in" on social media when performing our routines from trainerize app.

    I see all of my online clients "checking in" at the gym or club that they are performing the routines I put together for them, but are not "checking in" with trainerize giving credit to the app or my routines.

  3. Send pictures through messages

    Being able to message your clients and add pictures to the message so you don't have to use email to send a certain protein powder pic or food and have clients send pictures through message as well

  4. Goals

    Clients buy the vision of what you will do for their bodies not the app itself, as awesome as what it is. Where's the section on goals, with deadlines to achieve these? Goals section please, so so important to know, keep track of and work towards. Auto reminder everyday to go out to the client reminding them of their most important goals and confirming they are achieving results that are helping them get there. Thanks D

  6. Add totals to progress. Total Weight Lost/Gained, Inches Lost/Gain, Body Fat % This is almost more important than current stats.

    Clients are most proud of their overall achievement. They often forget where they were and a reminder of the entire journey can go a long way to maintaining their behaviours.

    Please add a total results section. This way clients can see for themselves and show their friends the total stats lost or gained.

  8. Ability to take a quick meal photo for food journaling

    Add a feature for clients to submit a photo of their meals to their trainer in a tab specifically for meal photos with time stamps. This way we can go into their profile, click on a meal photos tab, and see everything they've been eating, in order, with dates and times. This will help insure they are sticking to their meal plan and serving sizes and is an easy way to manage client adherence. Thanks!!!

  9. Display a dashboard of scheduled and completed items like the web dashboard does.

    Display a dashboard of scheduled and completed items like the web dashboard does.

    The mobile app doesn't display this so you have to click into each client to see what they're up to.

  12. In app video recording / photos to add to programs

    Sometimes a video is required that's not available so the ability to record a video in app or add a picture instantly would be good.

    To keep clients motivated it would be great if they could share completed workouts to a Facebook group of people doing the same program, not just their public timeline

    Hi everyone,



    Closing out this idea as this can already be done in the v6 app. where clients can share their summary screen to Instagram or Facebook.

    Thanks!

  14. Re-set the Cardio input options so you can set a time AND a HR zone eg 30 seconds at 90-100% HRmax

    For programming interval training, we need to be able to offer guidance on time as well as intensity levels eg sprint at 90-100% HRMax for 30 seconds then jog for 1 min at 70-75% HRmax. Your current settings only allow you to set either time OR HR zone.

  15. Bulk schedule programs

    I love how we can schedule workout programs for clients.
    It would be great if I could could easily drag and drop or copy/paste multiple programs in one go, rather than manually dragging one program over at a time.

  17. Allow videos to be added from computer files, not just those from YouTube

    I film my clients and I'd like to attach those videos to their workouts instead of only being able to add YouTube videos. Seeing themselves do the movements aids in observational learning (good research in the motor learning literature to support this).

  18. Add Training Plan Templates

    I can't understand why this isnt already a feature. Workouts can already be created with a template, if the same thing could happen with a training plan without setting up a client and using up one of our client seats that we've paid for. This should be an available feature,
    This would allow trainers to build pre-set training plans to increase workflow. This could work along side workout templates pulling in workout templates to training plans and then saving.

    HI everyone,

    Happy to announce we’ve completed this idea. Thanks for supporting the idea everyone.

    The final form of the idea is called “Programs”. You can group training plans and even import your template clients in as Programs.

    If you notice in your web app, there is an additional section called Programs. you can now subscribe your clients to programs.

    Also, we’ve released the companion feature to this Training Groups. Please read about it below.

    We hope you enjoy this feature.

    Please keep your ideas coming! Thanks!

  19. Client assessment forms along with a Par-Q

    It would be ideal if trainerize offered automatic emails of assessment forms to those signed up. Right now we have to email them but would be easier if it happened automatically once they logged in. Everything from Par-Q to a dietary record so that we can create a comprehensive client profile to better offer personalized training based on their needs.

  20. add to the trainer version of the mobile app the ability to setup and edit client data including workouts

    I would love to be able to add clients via the mobile app so I DON'T have to get onto a laptop or desktop to create a client profile, add or remove exercises, etc. It takes extra time out of my day to have to go home and sit for 30 minutes to set stuff up when I could just do it in my spare time from my Android on the go! I'd love to have that flexibility and freedom!

    Hi everyone,

    Over the past few mobile app versions, we have ported most of the daily editing functionality for workouts and training plans down to the mobile app.

    For now, advanced functionality like copying training plans will remain on the web.

    Thanks for your great ideas. Please create more new suggestions on how we can help you build your workouts or training plans faster!

    Thanks.
