How do I build my first training program?

1. Go to Content, then Programs

   Create a new program and give it a length in weeks. The length is what later drives progression and any expiry rules you set.

2. Add your workout days

   Build each day out of exercises from the library. You can search the exercise library or add your own.

3. Prescribe the way you actually coach

   Sets and reps are the floor. Each set can also carry RPE, RIR, tempo, rest and a note, so a set written as an RPE 8 top set reaches the athlete's wrist as one.

4. Assign it

   Assign the program to a client from their profile. It appears in their app immediately, and their logged sets come back to you.

Worth knowing

• A workout template is different from a program. Templates under Content, then Workouts are reusable single sessions; a program is the sequenced block.
• Anything you write in the coach cue field shows on the athlete's screen while they are doing the set, including on the Watch.

What this uses

• Strength programming
• Cycle-aware programming
