Guides & how-tos

How to assign a workout to a client

Step-by-step: pick or build a workout, customise sets and loads for the client, and assign it so it syncs straight to their app.

How to create a custom exercise

Add your own exercise to the Trainnode library with muscle groups, instructions, a tracking type, and a demo video.

How to set up automated client check-ins

Create a recurring wellness survey and assign it to clients so soreness, sleep, and energy answers arrive automatically between sessions.

How to run a live coaching session

Start a session from an assigned workout, log sets live with rest timers and prefilled loads, then complete it — synced to the client app in real time.

How to track a client’s progress

See a client’s strength, volume, and personal records per exercise, record a tested 1RM, and compare progress photos over time.

How to set up strength ratio analysis

Create a strength ratio collection with an anchor lift and target ratios, then read each client’s balanced, over-, and under-developed lifts.
