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. Allow trainers to indicate what muscle group a weightlifting activity is targeting.

    This allows the client to find an alternative if necessary.

  2. Offer an option for Alternate Sets not just Supersets

    Supersets is misleading to clients. There needs to be an option for Alternate Sets to save writing "This is not a superset" in the notes several times per program. If anything Supersets are used less than Alternates.

  3. Add non-training events to the calendar

    Many of our clients are training for something specific... be it a sports meet or event, a competition, or a trip to the beach. It would be nice to be able to add those events to the calendar, even if it's just a titled item with no real content.

    Right now I build a workout for their events, so that I can see those things on their calendar when I'm building their plan, but that clutters up their training plan.

  6. Add options to record biometric measurements. Total Cholesterol, LDL Cholesterol, HDL Cholesterol, Triglycerides, Glucose, BMI, Waist Circum

    Add options to record Bio-metric Measurements along with the current body stats. Total Cholesterol, LDL Cholesterol, HDL Cholesterol, Triglycerides, Glucose, BMI, Waist Circumference. This would be great for tracking chronic disease risk factors. Would be great for corporate wellness programs.

  7. Develop a more general strength programming template

    Currently the program writing template is too restrictive. A simple (hopefully!?) solution would be to have more fields. For example I write programs similar to Ian King/Charles Poliquin. Many PTs do to:

    A1 Back squat, 3 sets, 8-10 reps, 4011 tempo, 60 sec rest
    A2 Lying leg curl 3 sets, 6-8 reps, 4110 tempo, 60 sec rest

    A1 and A2 are not super sets in this case, they are simply paired. Calling two or more sets paired or grouped together a super set is too restrictive.

    Simplify this bit and I'm sold.. until then, thanks for the look.

  8. add scaling to workout templates

    I like how I can create a workout template and use it for several clients, but once I add that workout to their calendar, I can't swap individual exercises for substitution exercises or add scaling options for clients with bad knees, shoulders, etc...

    For this, the only option I see is to add a whole new template just for one client rather than have them follow a similar routine where I can delete and exchange "weighted dips" for "machine assisted dips", for example, while they recover from a work-related injury.

    If I get to the point where I have 50-60…

  11. Sort workout order calendar

    Ability to order the workouts within a training day. It always seems to put "cardio" workouts after every other workout, and there are times when I'd like to specify the order

  12. Display Calories Out from the FitBit App

    I use My Fitness Pal and FitBit with all of my clients and love how the apps all now connect together. It would be great if the Trainerize App took the calories out over from the FitBit app as well as the resting HR per day, as this would allow me to monitor calories in (MFP) and calories out (FitBit) so I can monitor their deficit for weight loss.

  13. CrossFit Style AMRAP workout - Ability to put AMRAP (As Many Rounds As Possible) as a value when adding number of sets.

    Currently when putting in a value for the number of sets for the exercise it is not possible to put anything other than a number.
    It would be great to have the ability to put in AMRAP if the exercise is to be completed for As Many Rounds As Possible in a set amount of time.

    For Example:

    AMRAP in 5 minutes
    Box Jumps AMRAP x 10 Reps
    Pushups AMRAP x 10 Reps

  15. infographic

    Infographic or animation marketing video explaining how online personal training works from a client perspective that we can use on our websites to help increase conversion rates. A lot of prospects don't really grasp the concept of online personal training so a captivating video animation will help clear up the message to drive sales.

  17. Allow filtering on exercises without video in custom exercise library

    We used to be able to filter on exercises without video. This was very helpful when I added exercises for which I needed to upload movies later. I filtered them and printed out a list. Now, I have to go through all my custom exercises and select them manually. I need a easy, good overview to help me build my own exercise database. Please bring back this feature.

  18. Zapier action to extend a training plan

    Would be cool to be able to extend a training plan with a Zap.

    Example:
    Using a subscription payment solution that can send info if next month is paid, cancelled, etc.

    If paid: extend training plan by X weeks.
    If cancelled/no payment: deactivate client

    This is obviously for already set up clients that already have an active training plan in place.

  19. Introduce SMS reminders

    Instead of just an email having the ability to have an SMS sent to your client to remind them of having to complete their workout today, weigh in, measurements, before after would be SUPER!!!! (Also allowing us to switch of email if sms notifications are selected would be great)
