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!

    Hi everyone,

    This feature is now released with Version 3.11 of the mobile app. You can build interval workouts from the web or mobile app now and your clients will have the built-in timer so they have to toggle out to another app anymore.

    We’re definitely working to make the timer better over time so any suggestions and ideas are welcome.

    Some trainers have started another thread here:
    http://ideas.trainerize.com/forums/167887-general/suggestions/16454917-interval-timer-allow-us-to-enter-work-rest-times

    Thanks!

  4. 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!!!

  5. 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

  8. Not erase the workouts in a clients training plan when putting them on a new plan

    When adding another training plan onto the end of a previous plan, it would be nice if the workouts were not erased from the clients library. It adds extra steps to have to go back and add the workouts back into the workout plans.
    If you would add the option to keep the workouts and not just automatically erase them, that would be helpful and save time.

  9. Be able to repeat body stats and photo reminder

    I love being able to scehdule photo reminders and body stats. However it would be great if I could repeat these just like i do with my workouts in the calender function.

    For example, I would like to repeat 'take photos' for a client every monday. At the moment I have to go in one by one for each monday and add it.

    Its the simple things that would make this software excellent

  13. Add 'Trainer Notes' to the app

    I need to be able to see the Clients 'Trainers Notes' in the app.
    The desktop version is great - I can save notes about the client, ie, bringing $100 next week, or is away for all of march etc.
    But I cannot access this info via the app.

    Ideally, this is how I would like it to work:
    When I (the trainer) select a client in the app, it brings up their prorgram. within this screen I can hit 'trainer notes'. I can review notes from previous sessions, then go ahead with the program for that day.

  15. 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!

  16. Template building for cardio and strength plans without having to create a dummy client

    Rather than wasting client logins with creating dummy clients , there should be an option to build plan templates just like workout templates which will allow for mass planning based on days training whether cardio plan or strength plan like training peaks offers, I'm wasting money on dummy clients im using for plan templates

  18. Terms and Conditions

    Add a terms and conditions for clients to agree to or liability form for clients to complete during registration. I have owned a training studio for 10 years and I have my clients fill out a form to that they assume the risk and indemnify myself, my studio or my affiliates.

  20. Alert Me Immediately After a Client Completes a Workout

    I try to stay up to date on my clients as much as possible. Being automatically alerted after a client logs or checks-in for a workout would allow me to keep even more up to date with them and allow me to give them feedback quicker which would further strengthen the relationship between the client and myself.
