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!

  1. Add a workout quick edit feature where we can add/remove sets/exercises from future workouts without having to unschedule, edit, reschedule

    Currently, if we want to add or reduce sets in workouts based on client feedback we have to:
    Open the training programme
    Unschedule the future workouts
    Make the changes to the progression spreadsheet (and struggle to remember what the original progressions were)
    Then reschedule.
    Trainerize would be far superior to its competitors if it had a feature allowing trainers to easily scroll forwards to scheduled workouts and make quick edits like adding/removing sets, changing exercises etc

  2. Training days and rest days macros. Add macros in overall program.

    Being able to prescribe training day macros and rest day macros to a client would be ideal. Also being able to add daily nutrition goals and habits to the overall program would be awesome. Thanks.

  3. Auto-progress workouts to make them harder as clients track them.

    Save trainers time instead of having to manually progress workouts by hand. The AI should adjust weight overload based on client feedback on how hard the exercise is.

  4. Automatically play custom videos (uploaded or imported from YouTube)?

    I chose the Trainerize platform for its ability to be customised for my business, however, when I assign exercises with my own custom videos, the videos do not automatically play as the default Trainerize videos do. There shouldn't be any reason for this - the platform can obviously autoplay videos.

  5. option to provide the client with a weight for an exersize based of a percentage of their 1 rep max and for the app to auto calculate this

    make an option to tell your client what weight to use on a specific exercise, however the option should allow you to input the 1 rep max and a percentage and the app should auto calculate this and set the correct weight for my client to lift.

  6. Be able to print the Progression spreadsheet

    This will allow you to track & see (all in one sheet) what your client has done in previous weeks while you are on the floor with them in their session.
    I am currently copying the tracking sheet from the previous week onto a blank tracking sheet for the current session, so I can see what they did last week.

  7. Enable Expiring Program Tags When Subscribed To Master/On-Demand Programs

    Trainers should be able to enable to see when clients custom programs are expiring or expired, but unfortunately that isn't the case when they are also subscribed to a master program or on-demand program library. This is a big flaw as many master programs linked to groups or on-demand programs are now being used to compliment clients custom primary programs, and not just as an alternative to them.

  10. Allow Trainers to input custom photo for a workout instead of the first exercise’s photo

    Currently, each workout’s photo defaults to a picture of the first exercise. It would be great to customize this to a photo of your choosing.

    Not ideal to have a picture of someone on a bike for my Booty Workout just because they’re warming up on a bike at the start of their workout.

  13. Allow clients to pause workouts and come back without having to click "save"

    Many of my clients have brought to my attention they would like to be able to pause their workouts. In cases where they need to break up their workout they aren't able to pause a workout half way, just save and finish the workout.

  14. Dated Calendar for Program building!!!! PLEASEEEEEE

    Please make a dated calendar version for program building!! this would be so helpful. This would help with adjusting for holidays, roll overs, days that are empty to reschedule or add in notes for accountability. I plan by 2 weeks, month and yearly challenges and programs. its so hard as it is now not to see the full dates to be able to schedual.

  15. Develop ways to program CrossFit style workouts.

    Something that can be good for trainers and clients alike is having the ability to set a goal within their conditioning circuits to help clients understand intensities, stimuli, and have another way to track/compare progress.

    A lot of my clients are former CrossFitters who are tired of how the typical gyms program and would still like similar style of programming within a more thought out method. Also, the ability to program AMRAP, Every Minute on the Minute (EMOM, E2MOM,E3MOM, etc.), and For Time/For Load style workouts can help our clients learn to look at things OTHER than body metrics to…

  16. Allow a client to leave a rating of perceived exertion (or comment space) for an individual set

    It would be very helpful to be able to leave a rating of perceived exertion (1-10) for each set for the coach and client to look back upon. This data will be very useful. It can be as simple as adding a box next to the reps and weight boxes which can be enabled in settings. Hope you guys consider this as it is an important component of tracking and periodisation!

  17. Custom Time Intervals (Interval Workouts)

    Interval App Timer Needs Finer Adjustments

    The current times available jump from 2 min to 5 min to 10 min

    This makes progression for HIIT style training difficult, when attempting to add 10 sec to a work interval, or take 10 sec away from a rest interval.

    For example, 2:10 sec Work, 4:50 sec rest, etc.

    Currently, the only solution is to write the workout as a regular style workout, and have the clients download and use a separate interval timer app, which takes away from the "custom app" experience

  20. allow options for recording resistance other than lbs.

    Allow options in recording exercise resistance other than just lbs. How about exercise band color, time, or inches (for example squats to a box, you could track progress by going lower and lower)
