Templates
Templates let coaches create reusable training plans that can be applied to any client. Build the structure once, then adjust it during application when a client needs a different start date, schedule, or emphasis.
Templates are a coaching feature, available on web only.
Why Use Templates
Templates help you:
- Build structured multi-week training blocks
- Maintain consistency across clients with similar goals
- Save time by reusing proven programmes
- Add visual training phases to show block structure
- Customise the plan when applying it to an individual client
- Coach more clients with less repeated planning work
Creating a Template
Go to Templates
Navigate to Coaching -> Templates from the sidebar.
Create new template
Click New Template and give it a clear name, such as “4-Week Strength Block”.
Add weeks
Templates are organised by weeks. Add as many weeks as the programme needs.
Add workouts to days
Add coaching workouts to specific days. You can search for workouts, choose recent workouts, or use Multi Add when a day needs multiple sessions.
Add notes and phases
Add notes for coaching context and use phases to show training blocks, deloads, or competition preparation.
Save the template
Save the finished template for future use.
Template Structure
Templates use a week-based structure:
- Weeks - Each template can have multiple weeks
- Days - Each week has seven days
- Workouts - Coaching workouts scheduled on specific days
- Notes - Optional notes for context or reminders
- Phases - Colour-coded blocks spanning one or more weeks
Design templates with flexibility in mind. You can adjust them when applying to a client.
Adding Workouts to Template Days
Search and Add
Click a template day, search for a coaching workout, and add it to that day.
Recent Workouts
Recent workouts appear in the picker so you can quickly add sessions you use often.
Multi Add
Use Multi Add when a day needs several sessions.
Enable Multi Add
Click Multi Add in the day actions panel.
Select workouts
Choose multiple workouts from search or recent workouts.
Add all at once
Click the Multi Add action with the selected count to add every selected workout to the template day.
Bulk Add
Use Bulk Add to place workouts on a recurring pattern inside the template, such as every Monday for four weeks.
Training Phases in Templates
Template phases show the structure of a training block.
Open template day actions
Click any day in the template.
Add a phase
Select Phase from the actions menu.
Set the week range
Choose the start week, end week, label, and colour.
Save
Save the phase to display it across the selected weeks.
When you apply a template to a client’s planner, template phases convert into date-based training phases starting from the application date.
Applying Templates to Clients
Enter Coach Mode
Switch to Coach Mode to view the client’s planner.
Open the template
Go to Templates and select the template you want to apply.
Choose start date
Pick the date when the template should begin.
Apply
The template’s workouts, notes, and phases are added to the client’s planner from the selected date.
Customising During Application
When applying a template, you can:
- Adjust the start date
- Review the schedule before applying
- Avoid overwriting existing client content unless you choose to
- Make client-specific edits after the template is on the planner
Managing Templates
Edit a Template
Open an existing template to modify its weeks, workouts, notes, phases, or layout.
Duplicate a Template
Create a copy of a template when you want a starting point for a new programme.
Delete a Template
Remove templates you no longer need. This does not affect clients who already have the template applied.
Best Practices
Name templates clearly Use names like “Beginner Boulder Block” or “Competition Peaking Phase”.
Include rest days Plan recovery so clients receive a complete programme.
Use phases Add colour-coded phases to make the block structure easy to scan.
Add notes Use notes for coaching context, testing reminders, or adjustments.
Test first Apply templates to a test client or yourself before using them with real clients.
