Online Training Guide
How To Guide On How Online Personal Training Works...
Once the workouts have been added to your account you'll find them in the Calendar section of the app. Please note this is done manually by your coach, so it may take up to 24 hours to apply, it is not automated.
In the calendar section of the app you can click on this icon to see the workouts on designated days. These workouts are divided into Upper Body, Lower Body, Glutes & Core plus a cardio day and an outdoor activity day. Do not feel like you must complete the workout on the specified day, but try your best to complete all 5 workouts within the given 7 day period!
When you click on the orange triangles on the calendar view you can preview each workout. You will also see the title for the workout (e.g. Intro Day) and the approximate time it will take to complete.
Scrolling downwards on this page you will see all of the workout for you to prepare mentally for whats ahead of you that day!
When you are ready to start you press the triangular PLAY icon.
Next the workout will start and you will receive video instructions on how to perform each exercise, the avatar will demonstrate good form and technique and the timer at the bottom will show you how long you should aim to participate in each activity. You can start and stop the workout by clicking pause at any time, and you can also click on the screen to receive additional information.
This screen shows rest times, reps, sets and any additional notes your coach has provided about the given exercise. There is also a preview of the rest of the workout at the bottom.
During weight rep exercises you'll notice we haven't given a specific weight target as all clients abilities are different. However, what you are aiming for is that by the last set (the 4 in the picture shown) you are so fatigued that it brings you to near failure. You'll hear coaches say "train to failure" and that's what they mean.
Select a weight that seems easy at first, because the longer you repeat an exercise the harder it gets!
You can use the notes section to keep a record of the weights used!
