Most coaches start with spreadsheets and messaging apps. That is a sensible start.
Where a spreadsheet works
- You coach a handful of clients.
- Clients are happy to message you their numbers.
- You write each programme once and rarely change it.
Where it starts to cost you time
- You copy numbers from messages into the sheet.
- You cannot find last week's answer without scrolling.
- Two versions of a programme exist and nobody knows which is current.
- A client has no way to log a session in the gym.
- You find out about an injury after it has cost two weeks.
Count the cost
Time the admin for one week. Note the minutes spent copying, searching and reformatting. Multiply by your hourly rate.
Move one piece at a time
Do not move every client on one day. Start with new clients and keep the sheet for the rest.
Keep a copy of your data
Whatever you pick, export the history before you leave a tool. Check you can do the same with the next one.
Where Trainersight fits
Trainersight replaces the copying step. Clients log sets in the app, offline if needed, and you see them against the plan.
