Personal Trainers

What style of fitness/sport do you coach?

Trail & Ultra Running - I'm an online coach in a strength coaching capacity for runners.

How do you deliver your programming?

I offer 100% remote training. 

What program types do you use to deliver your training?

I use Custom and Fixed Length programming.  As all of my coaching is bespoke - the custom programming option offers all the tools you could ever need to catering for various athletes types and levels. I use fixed length to offer sample programmes ranging from 1-4 weeks - fantastic for giving potential clients the coaching experience if they're not 100% sure!

Which features are helping you the most and why?

The video attachment tool has been well received by clients in testing and adds that personal touch to session briefs, etc. A close second is the benchmarking tool - recently found out how to adjust the % of lifts!

Are you using Benchmarks in your training?

Yes! The larger range compound lifts and distances for runners are an obvious go-to.

Since using FITR how has it changed your coaching business?

It saves me a HEAP of time - I've worked on pulling together some base templates, etc. It's made programming so easy! My clients also love the app. The coach support via chat has been a real winner.

It's great. The only thing I feel that's missing is being able to integrate other apps - Strava, Polar, Garmin, etc.

FITR saves us time creating programming, automating payments, it’s cost effective, and our clients like the functionality and front-end look.

What style of fitness/sport do you coach?

Strength training.

How do you deliver your programming?

I offer a hybrid mix of both online and in-person coaching. FITR allows me to set clients an online program to follow and have adhoc sessions in person when they’re needed.

What program types do you use to deliver your training?

Custom programs, as they allow me to create bespoke programs for each client. This suits my style of coaching and makes sure that every client has been set and is working towards their goals in the most personalised way possible.

Which features are helping you the most and why?

The video demonstrations are particularly useful as my clients are mainly following online programming. This gives my clients a reference point whenever they train, even if this is when I’m not available.

Are you using Benchmarks in your training?

Yes, Bench press, Back/Front Squat, Strict Press, Push Press, Deadlift, 2km row, max HR.

Since using FITR how has it changed your coaching business?

Clients love the platform, a lot slicker than google sheets that I was using previously! Having the payments done through the platform/Stripe takes a lot of stress away from chasing for payments. Using the templates saves me a lot of time and in turn, money. The fact that FITR are not getting complacent and are constantly improving the platform is admirable! Keep it up because it’s coaches like me and our clients that are reaping the rewards!

How do you deliver your programming?

I offer programming in-person and online. FITR has created an easy platform for me to deliver online training in addition to in-person, allowing me to reach clients across the country.

What program types do you use to deliver your training?

I use the Session 1, Day 1 program type. I’m able to create a single training schedule that I update over time. As new clients join, they start on the first day and progress through the historic training I’ve already created. It’s great for individual bespoke training programs customised to my clients needs and goals, both in and out of the health and fitness world.

Which features are helping you the most and why?

The movement demo videos available in the FITR Media Library are paramount. Adding them into my training is easy and it really helps clients who are potentially new to the movements.

Since using FITR how has it changed your coaching business?

I really love the integration with Stripe in automating the logistics of payments and memberships. It takes this element of running my business out of my hands, giving me more headspace and time to concentrate on effective and efficient programming.

It’s great for individual bespoke training programs, customised to my clients needs and goals.

What style of fitness/sport do you coach?

Strongman primarily catering also to powerlifters and general strength and conditioning athletes

How do you deliver your programming?

I offer a hybrid mix of both online and in-person coaching. FITR allows me to clearly lay out all client’s individualised programming whilst also giving the freedom and flexibility of using templates, including videos and being able to easily switch up what I’m delivering according to client needs. The app is easy to use and benefits the client/coach relationship due to the checkbox and video upload features, enabling a better overall service and making the programming I’m giving reactive and engaging.

What program types do you use to deliver your training?

At the moment just individualised although the plan is to release templates for different training goals and movement specific blocks. The fact clients have access to everything and I’m able to easily separate what everyone is working towards yet also have access to tried and tested templates to be dropped in and personalised to current or new clients.

Which features are helping you the most and why?

The movement video library and easy to drop in YouTube links is a game changer for me. As a visual learner myself it helps to see a video of specific or niche movements so being able to deliver that to my clients is perfect.

Are you using Benchmarks in your training?

Not as of yet, this is something I’m excited to get stuck into and implement!

Since using FITR how has it changed your coaching business?

Time saving, much more streamlined and easier on my brain, much more value for clients

Very impressed by customer service so far. Seem to go above and beyond which I’m grateful for. The FAQs and Info sections on the website are concise and clear too.

Military preparation.

How do you deliver your programming?

I deliver my training 100% remotely. FITR is fantastic for fully remote coaching as it makes thing simple by having everything needed in one place.

What program types do you use to deliver your training?

I use a range of Session 1, Day 1, Fixed length, and 1-2-1 program types as they allow me to cater for all of my different clients’ needs.

Which features are helping you the most and why?

Benchmarks, Community Chat and Challenges are my three favourite features. Benchmarks make my life easier by personalling programming to a large group of clients with just a few clicks. I’ve been using Challenges and Community Chat to create a sense of community, something I think is important for 100% remote coaches.

Are you using Benchmarks in your training?

Yes I’m regularly adding them into my programming. Some examples of what I use include: strength numbers, 1.5 mile times, push ups, pull ups and sit ups

Complete game changer.
