Athletes

Every athlete you coach gets a profile in the app. From this profile you manage their data, measurements, and calendar, and get instant access to their program, injuries, and statistics.

What's in an athlete profile?

General data — name, date of birth, weight, height, gender.
Training goals and general training preferences.
Level — the athlete's training level, from 1 to 5. This helps determine which exercises and structure suit them — see Level.
Injuries — where on the body an athlete has complaints or pain points. More info at Injuries, pregnancy & menstruation.
Statistics & planning tab — here you see which trainings the athlete has recently done, and can build a schedule with optional (non-strength) activities. See also Calendar per athlete and Statistics & leaderboard.
Extra exercise preferences — every exercise has a default suitability per level (too heavy, too light, or good). Here you can override this per athlete and per exercise.
Responsible coach (optional) — which coach guides this athlete (see Coaches & team).

💡

When do you override an exercise preference?

Use this when an athlete can already handle an exercise that would normally be rated "too heavy" for their level — or the reverse, when an exercise that's normally suitable shouldn't (yet) be given to this athlete.

Measurements & tests

You can optionally track a number of measurements and tests per athlete, each on a chosen date. This is entirely optional — the app works perfectly well without it.

Skinfold measurement

You enter 7 skinfold measurements (in mm). The app automatically calculates a body fat percentage from this, based on gender and age, and immediately compares it with the previous measurement.

Stability

Results of stability tests.

Flexibility

Results of flexibility and range-of-motion tests.

Quick access to the rest of the profile

From an athlete's profile you go straight to their current training program, their injuries, their statistics and estimations, their calendar, and their test results — these are all tabs or panels you open from the athlete profile.

Calendar per athlete

Besides the trainings themselves, you can keep a personal calendar per athlete that combines two kinds of blocks:

A scheduled strength training from an active program.
A free-form activity (e.g. tennis, running) with its own intensity, location, notes, and a checklist of points to watch.

This gives you, as a coach, a complete picture of an athlete's load, even beyond the trainings you plan yourself.

Resetting estimations

If you haven't trained an athlete in a while, or something structural has changed (an injury has healed, their level has gone up, …), you can set a reset date for that athlete's estimations. Results from before that date no longer count — the app rebuilds the estimations starting from results entered after the reset date.

Go to the athlete's page.
Click the Estimations tab.
Click Set reset date.
Choose a date from which results may start rebuilding the estimations again.

💡

When do you use this?

Especially useful after a long break or a structural change, so the app no longer factors in outdated data.
