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!

  2. Education section

    There needs to be an "Education" section or portal that is separate from workouts. Clients need to be able to refer to videos uploaded by the trainer for basic education for true remote coaching. This is already available on other apps and if not added makes Trainerize fall behind the competition

  3. Allow meal photo "click in" to view full photo on larger screen, not just hover and have the photo blow up past your screen

    Please adjust the meal photo option. I would like to clearly see a day's worth of food in photos without having to hover over each tiny little photo. Currently when you hover over the small photo the picture blows up 500% and you can only see the top 1/3 of the photo on your computer screen. It's a mess I cant even see what the photo is trying to capture. Please fix this - I have my clients log their meals by photos only we do not track calories (typically)

  4. Generate Meal Plans to REDUCE Groceries

    When generating a meal plan, try to reduce grocery ingredients needed by re-using the same spices, sides, vegetables and proteins over the week. It would be especially great to re-use items in the next day's snacks or meals by planning 'leftovers'. Example: have salmon for dinner Monday night, and salmon with crackers for snack Tuesday. This will save people time and money.

  5. Ability to fully customize Nutrition

    Having the ability to custom macros, calories (ex. 1480 vs. 1400) and number of meals is so important to a good plan. Offering only 3 meals max for a certain number of calories is so limiting and makes it hard to teach clients how to spread their meals out throughout the day. I'm having to pay extra for another website to offer exactly what I need for my clients. Being able to add new recipes into the program and allow clients to pull for the database is nice - Now if we could just get more options available on how…

  7. Movement Substitutions Auto-Populate in Upcoming Workouts.

    I would love to see an option where substituting a movement in the training program or within an actual workout when training a client on my app live with a client can automatically fill in that movement in ALL of the upcoming scheduled workouts under the same name.

    Example: Workout 1, scheduled to be repeated on Mondays for 8 weeks.
    Superset 1:
    1a) Goblet Squat
    1b) Pull-up

    Superset 2:
    2a) Dumbbell Bench Press
    2b) Barbell Romanian Deadlift

    I learn in the first session that a dumbbell row would be a much better option for this client than the pull-up, so…

  8. Nutrition Automations

    The following functions:
    • auto message sent when client doesn’t hit daily nutrition goal
    • auto message sent when client doesn’t hit daily nutrition goal 3 days in a row
    • auto message sent when client doesn’t hit daily nutrition goal 7 days in a row
    • auto message sent when client DOES hit daily nutrition goal for 3 days in a row

    Also a filter to prevent the same message being sent multiple times to a client, to prevent feelings of automation. This will help trainers identify clients barriers much quicker

  10. Favourites Section for Client Exercises

    I’d like to suggest a feature that could help both coaches and clients when it comes to navigating the extensive exercise library: a “Favourites” section for exercises on the client side.

    Problem:
    With so many similar exercise variations in the library (e.g. “Walking Lunges” vs. “Dumbbell Walking Lunges”), clients often click on the wrong version when completing workouts. As a result, their tracked weights from previous sessions don’t carry over, which interrupts the flow of their training and makes progressive overload harder to manage.

    Suggestion:
    Adding a “Favourites” or “Saved Exercises” section would allow clients to easily find and use…

    Please add the ability to add additional nutrient goals (i.e. I would like my clients to aim for 40+ grams of fiber each day, 1500g sodium, etc.)

  13. Custom logo on the personal best/achievement screen

  14. Allow Custom Macros to Integrate with Meal Planner & Recipe Recommendations

    As a coach working with clients across multiple levels and goals (from fat loss to athletic performance), custom macros are a non-negotiable part of individualized programming. Many of us currently upload macros manually, but clients lose access to meal planner features and recipe recommendations when we do.

    We need the ability to:
    ✅ Upload custom macros for clients
    ✅ AND allow those clients to receive appropriate recipe suggestions & daily meal planning based on those targets

    Why this matters:
    • This would streamline the client experience by keeping nutrition all in one place
    • Clients are more likely to follow…

  15. Bilingual

  17. Client Exercise Substitutions Carry to Subsequent Week's Workouts

    We have several clients working autonomously through programs that are pre-built. If a user substitutes a movement/exercise in a particular workout/training session, allowing them to select if they'd like to make the sub for all future corresponding progressions of that workout/session would benefit the Ux for both the client and the overseeing coaches who no longer need to go in and change it for them

    Just a thought!

  18. A ‘Session Overview’ button within each client’s profile, displaying all scheduled, past, available sessions for streamlined management

    Session Tracking Enhancements to Improve Trainer & Client Experience

    1. Problem

    As a trainer managing high volumes of recurring sessions, I’ve noticed a key inefficiency: there’s no centralized view within a client’s profile to track their session history—what’s scheduled, what’s been used, and what remains.

    Currently, I must:

    • Manually sift through the calendar week-by-week to count sessions
    • Deduct from the session credit count without any way to confirm attendance (e.g., check-in or cancellation status)
    • Address client questions about remaining sessions without immediate or confident answers

    This lack of transparency creates friction in communication and undermines the trainer-client trust…

  19. Hide calories and macros for clients!

    We should be able to hide calories and macros for clients but keep them visible for coaches. This way we dissociate the number from the food and can better the clients relationship with food. Coaches will still be able to see the calories and macros so we can adjust meal plans and work with clients to see what to add or reduce. This will make sure we build sustainable eating habits with our clients
