Weight training plans

Authorised people build gym plans with a guided flow; athletes follow them from the Gym tab with checkmarks, loads and charts.

Where they are: three different entry points

Entry pointWhat it containsWho uses it
More → Training plansAll the team's plans, to create and manage.People with the Training plans permission.
Team → player → Weight plansPlans assigned to that player and their logs: completed sets, loads and notes.People with the Training plans permission, and the physio in read mode.
More → My training plans / Gym tabOnly the plans assigned to you.Staff (menu) and athletes (Gym tab).
My training plans isn't the list of all athletes: it only shows what was assigned to you.

Creating a plan in 4 steps

The flow has four steps: Details, Assignees, Exercises and Summary. You can go back without losing anything.

1. Details

2. Assignees

By court position, staff role or individual people, also combined. The same person can't appear twice: the app tells you before saving.

3. Exercises

Exercises come from the team library (photo, description, video link). Each goes into a section (Warm-up, Main part, Core, Cool-down) and is configured with:

To alternate two exercises with no rest, select them and tap Superset: they become A1/A2. "Ungroup superset" separates them.

4. Summary

The preview shows the plan as the athlete will see it. With Save and send assignees are notified and the plan is active.

Expiry, extension and reuse

Before the plan expires, whoever created it gets a reminder. From the plan menu:

On the last day of validity the plan is still active both for whoever manages it and for the athlete.

For athletes: the Gym tab

Athletes have a tab at the bottom with the dumbbell icon. During the workout:

  1. Mark each exercise as Done: the progress ring fills up.
  2. Where requested, log today's kg; next to it you see "last time: X kg". Valid loads range from 0 to 500 kg.
  3. Tap an exercise for photo, description, video, notes and your load chart.
Each athlete only sees their own plans. Staff members with an assigned plan find it in More → My training plans.
2.2.2

The web fixes are already available. Mobile controls require the 2.2.2 update from the store, subject to approval and distribution by Apple or Google.

Saving a weight and finding previous entries

  1. Check the selected plan, its validity period and the date shown for today's entry.
  2. Enter the weight, including zero or decimals, and press Save. Wait for the server confirmation before leaving.
  3. Not saved means the server has not confirmed the value. Keep the screen open, restore the connection and retry. An unsaved draft is not guaranteed to survive a forced app closure.
  4. If another device has changed the entry, review the conflict and the current value before saving again. Cancel discards your draft and shows the confirmed value.

Changing sets or notes preserves the saved weight. Last saved weight includes its date and is separate from today's entry: it is never copied automatically into today. Open Previous plans to consult older prescriptions; the history of the same exercise can span multiple plans.

Plans may intentionally have different exercises or assignments. If something is missing, check the selected plan, date and assignment with your coach; previous weights are not evidence that an exercise was completed today.

Viewing logs

The Physical tests and Weight plans buttons on the player card each use their own permission: someone authorised only for weights opens weights, someone authorised only for tests opens tests.

Linking a plan to a practice

In session planning the coach can add a physical block before or after court time and link it to an existing plan. The link doesn't change the plan or its logs, and details stay visible only to people who already have permission to see them.

Permissions

Creating and managing plans is reserved to people enabled for the Training plans feature in the team permissions: the founding coach decides whether to open it to all staff, to specific roles (for example the athletic trainer) or to individual people. The physiotherapist can view players' plans even without this permission. Supporters and unrecognised roles have no access.

Build the library first with the exercises you actually use, photos and videos included: every new plan then takes minutes.
