Most clients will have more than one workout for every period/ phase of training. Being able to put multiple workouts together on one screen makes it easy to create programs that work synergistically and maximise the results for your client.

Client Exercise technique reviews

When clients train remotely it's just as important their technique is correct than when they're training with you in person. Poor technique leads to poor performance and injury. Our apps allow clients to video their technique while training which goes straight to you for review.

When clients add results you get to see them immediately. You can check history and charts to see progress with a glance. Clients enjoy seeing results and visual charts to show their progress.

Experienced trainers have systems in place that give similar types of programs for similar types of clients. Having these set up as templates that you can adjust for each individual is a big time saver compared to making similar programs from scratch.

Movement screen assessments allow you to create training programs specific to each clients individual patterns. Giving you the chance to reduce clients chance of injury and improve long term performance.
