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.
