Programming feature: Periodization and Progression
complete
Coach Titan
This one feature would reinforce Everfit on the mountaintop of fitness coaching apps.
One way I have seen this done is that you can link the same session together across a 6 week phase (for example)
Each session is in sequence and you can quickly and linearly adjust weights, reps, sets, etc across the phase. This is true Periodization and Progressive Overload.
It is currently cumbersome to program, as you have to click on each individual session 1 by 1.
Most coaching apps do not have a great way of programming periodization or true progression. Google docs remain the archaic gold standard for this. And dare I mention that Trainerize DOES offer this feature. Which is a good way to see it in action.
Screenshot attached of how THEY do it over there. Made me feel ill just opening up that horrid app. So you know where my allegiance lies.
Lets make this happen!

how do i use the feature?
Coach Titan
Jojo Whaitiri If you open up the training calendar in a programming view or client calendar view. You will see the button highlighted on the top right corner. https://help.everfit.io/en/articles/10448762-introducing-program-master-planner

Roxie Beckles
Long Nguyen saw this drop earlier this afternoon and IMMEDIATELY love it. Great job with this one. It even works with the pre-designed programs.

Roxie Beckles
Johan Claesson yes when you go to the training schedule under any client or program, you'll see the button.

I'm really hoping the "New Master Planner" from today's message is this feature. If not, I think I'll be jumping ship.

I can't wait for this update. I'm a new trainer that tried out Trainerize and found the app to be super difficult to use, so came over to try EverFit. I like it much better but the lack of easy progressions was a big bummer. Happy to hear it's being addressed.
1) Will the update allow for auto-populate from the client's rep/weight entries from the week before, and
2) Will it automatically adjust future workouts to continue the progression based the new entries or would Trainers still have to manually adjust for the weeks ahead if clients input a different rep/weight than what was originally programmed?
Thanks!
Coach Titan
Kristen Katibah No, I don't believe auto-populate will be included in the first phase.

Cannot wait for this!! Currently spending over 10 hours per week manually updating client programs with progressions. Would be sooo nice to have a smart feature that does this automatically.
Coach Felipe
Timothy Hart Same! Last week I spent 30+ hours just progressing 1:1 clients.

Hi! Is it possible to see the week in the calendar? Like in front of the weeks W12, W13...

This would save so much time if done right. Right now, if I have workout A scheduled for 6 weeks, and I want to update it in week 2, I have to then go through the same workout in every week to update it. The way trainerize does it where they have the workouts in the phase, then they are scheduled, then using the progression sheet is key. The way it is now wastes so much time. Another potential benefit is save an alternate exercise used (by updating the template workout).

Jason Dupree yes I’m waiting for this to come into play then I’ll happily shift to this app for coaching as this is the only reason keeping me on trainerize at the moment 😂
Coach Titan
Jay Harvey It’s here!
Daniel Alley
Any update on this? It can't take this long to update this surely
Coach Titan
Daniel Alley Yes, its coming soon. And I think non-developers would be very surprised how long these things take and how many balls are in the air.

Daniel Alley also eagerly awaiting this update!!
Coach Titan
Daniel Alley Done.

I am baffled it has taken this long to get it in progress. I feel EverFit are more focused on Client UX experience over Coach/Trainer UX experience
