Coach
The coach area: students, programs and messages
On the Coach plan, the Coach tab brings together your weekly dashboard, your students, programs, exercise library and inbox.

On the Coach plan, Gym+ adds the Coach tab to the bottom bar. There you follow your students, build and send programs, create your own exercises and answer what comes in from your students. Your own workouts stay in the other tabs, as before.
Before you start

Step by step

Step 1 In Dashboard, see what needs you this week: Needs attention lists students who stopped training, low adherence, pain reports and new comments, and Trained today shows who has already trained.
In Students, tap a student to see their profile. To bring someone new in, tap Send to a student. See How to invite students by @ or by link.

Step 3 In Programs, tap New program and choose Blank program or From a template. Publish the program before sending it.

In Inbox, read the comments, workouts and alerts from your students. Tap Mark all as read when you are done.
