Once the program is created (periodized or free-form), you can begin to plan sessions within that program.
Navigate to the sessions tab on a program to begin.
Adding a Session
Click "Add Session" to add a session to that week.
By clicking the triple dots on the session you can make the following changes:
Name the session
Save the session as a template
Assign the day of the week this session will take place
Move the session to a different week
Copy/duplicate the session into a different week
Delete the session
Adding, removing and copying weeks
You can add weeks to your program by clicking the plus button beneath the toolbar at the top of the page.
There are several option you can apply with the settings Icon.
Move the week to another position
Copy the week, which adds a new week with the selected weeks contents
Copy into, which copies the weeks contents into an existing week.
Rep Schemes
Rep Schemes allow you to apply sensible defaults for all new exercises added into the session. For example, if you were planning a block where you wanted to prescribe 4 sets of 6 reps to the majority exercises, you can use the template functionality to set these numbers as defaults.
Adding Exercises
Clicking "Add Exercise" will bring up a window to add an exercise to the selected session.
From here you can:
Select the exercise
Select what sequence the exercise belongs to (Important for super sets)

Fill and Copy Down
In the edit exercise window you can now "Fill down" or "Fill Blanks" in targets. This will either fill down to the next filled cell or fill in all blank cells depending on the selection.
Creating Supersets, Drop-sets, Cluster Sets etc
To group exercises, simply drag and drop an exercise onto another exercise or exercise group:
You may also click the three-dots, edit the exercise and assign the same letter under "Sequence" to group exercises:
The name of the exercise group will update depending on how the exercises within are arranged:
Superset/Tri-set/Giant Sets
Two or more exercises with no rest between exercises. You may add a rest duration to the last exercise of the group to specify rest time between rounds.
Drop-sets
Two or more of the same exercises with no rest between exercises, and descending in weight. You may add a rest duration to the last exercise of the group to specify rest time between rounds.
Typically it's best to specify drop sets using Exercise Notes, but can by helpful when only wanting to measure RPE for the first segment of the drop set.
Cluster Sets
Two or more of the same exercises with minimal rest between exercises (< 45 seconds). You may add a rest duration to the last exercise of the group to specify rest time between rounds.
Typically it's best to specify cluster sets using Exercise Notes, but can by helpful when only wanting to measure RPE for the first segment of the cluster.
Other Set Schemes
For other patterns, the group will simply be labelled "Exercise Group". In these cases, it's best to leaves notes in the exercise notes if you have any further instructions on how to complete the set.
Per-Athlete Modifications
By clicking on the dropdown on the top right you can select a specific athlete to make changes to only their program from the main program set.
β
Athlete specific programs can then be copied into other programs.
Copying from other programs, phases or blocks
Once a block and it's sessions are created it can be duplicated into other programs.
By clicking the "Copy From" button you can copy an existing block and it's sessions into the block you are assigning sessions to.
Drafting/Publishing Session Plans
Whilst creating and editing sessions you will be in draft mode. Changes made here will not update an athlete's session until published, allowing you to plan and update at your own pace.
Once you are happy with your changes, click "Publish" to push the update to athlete's session plans.
At the moment, if an athlete is currently mid-session when you make a change, they will need to leave and re-enter the session to see the updates you've made. In the near future, these updates will happen automatically while the athlete is in-session.
Bulk Updates
To create numerous changes to the same program instantly.
As an example you are tapering an athlete and want to reduce their reps week by week or an athlete was injured and wanted to substitute an exercise for a block.
In the program editor click on BULK UPDATE to bring up the modal.
From here you can make a variety of adjustments to the program.
The section on the left describes the change you want to apply which include:
Setting a target value
Changing a target value
Specifying an Athlete Measurement to collect
Edit the number of sets
Edit the exercise
The section on the right specifies on what sessions you are applying the changes to which include:
Week number
Session name
Exercise
Printing off sessions
To export a session to a PDF to print, click on the triple dots of the session you want to export and follow the prompts. This can also be done on the week view.
You can also print of entire phases or blocks by right clicking on the Phase or Block and selecting the print option.
