Coach training and nutrition in the same place you run everything else.
The workout builder, the food log and the progress record sit inside your Coachful workspace, next to your programs, payments, scheduling and community. Your client opens the app you already gave them. You open the client record you already use.
No second app for them to remember. No second inbox for you to check.

A training app is not the problem.
Running your business in two of them is.
Most coaches who add training or nutrition end up with a second product, a second subscription and a client who has to be told which app to open. This puts the same work inside Coachful
, beside the programs, payments, scheduling and community you already run there.
Two products
- Clients hold two logins and answer you in whichever app they opened last
- The workout history sits in one tool and the coaching notes in another
- Payments, sessions and programs never see the training data
- You pay for a second subscription to serve the same client
One business
- One login, one branded app, one place your client posts a win
- Workouts, meals and measurements sit on the client record you already read
- A workout can be a program week practice, a journey step, or a one-off assignment
- It installs into the workspace you are already paying for
Train, eat, weigh in.
All of it in your app.
Clients get the parts you switch on, and nothing else. A nutrition client never sees a workout tab.
Training
Every set is logged against what they lifted last time.
- Previous values sit beside the prescription, so progress is visible in the moment
- Personal bests and an estimated one-rep max per movement, kept automatically
- Supersets, circuits, intervals, AMRAP and EMOM run on a guided clock
- Left and right logged separately when the movement needs it
- Swap to an alternative you approved, without asking permission mid-session
- A session already open keeps working offline and syncs when the signal returns
- Log an unplanned workout or cardio of their own, and add notes afterwards
Nutrition
Five ways to do it, because not every client should count calories.
- Habits, a written food journal, protein only, calories and macros, or a meal plan
- Calories show by default and can stay hidden for a client who should not be watching them
- Search 5,431 everyday foods and packaged products, or type a barcode to pull the exact product
- Say how much they had, and calories and macros are worked out from the amount
- Scan the barcode with the phone camera and the product is logged
- Private meal photos for the days a number would not tell you much
- Targets can differ on training days and rest days
Progress
The record that makes a check-in conversation worth having.
- Weight, measurements and any custom metric you define, with your units
- My vitals tiles, with BMI worked out from weight and height
- Clients can add or remove their own measurements and set a goal on one
- Progress photos stay private to the client unless they choose to share
- A weekly check-in that already knows what they logged, so they do not retype it
- This week beside last week, with the sample count shown rather than implied
- Steps, sleep and weight can be brought in from a CSV export

Meal plan
Your plan, with portions, swaps and a grocery list.

Build it once, in your own words
Write workouts in a builder that speaks your language: sets, rep ranges, load, rest, tempo, RIR, timed and distance work, supersets, circuits, intervals, AMRAP and EMOM. Pull movements from 601 illustrated exercises, or add your own with your own demo video, or start from one of eighteen templates. Recipes, recipe books and multi-day meal plans work the same way, with portions, alternatives and a grocery list the client can actually shop from. Duplicate a workout, copy a week inside a block, or copy one client’s plan onto another.

Assign it where the client will meet it
Send a workout or a meal plan straight to a client, bind it to a week of a program, or make it a step in a journey. Set each client up for training, nutrition, both, or progress only. Move a single session to another day without touching the program everyone else is on, and log a reading, a meal or a workout for a client when they send it to you another way.

Review what actually happened
An attention queue ranks who needs you: reported discomfort first, then heavy effort, missed sessions, and reviews waiting to go out. Assign a follow-up, snooze an item or resolve it, and mark a planned rest, travel or pause week so routine alerts stay quiet. You see what was performed against what was prescribed, write feedback with a voice note or a video attached, and approve a load or rep-range increase that applies to their next session rather than rewriting what they already did.

Answer the question
while they still care about it.
Form checks, challenges and reminders, each one opt-in and each one private to the people it is for.
Form checks
A client films one movement, mid-workout or after it, and sends it with a question. You watch it at quarter, half or full speed, step through it and pin your answer to the second. They are notified when you are done. The video never goes near a public address.
0.25×0:07 / 0:18Priya: Is my lower back rounding at the bottom?
Opt-in challenges
Set a window of up to three months and count what clients already log: workouts, training minutes, sets, volume, logging days, protein days or check-ins. Clients join if they want to. Body measurements are never ranked, and finishing can earn points through your loyalty rules or unlock a level.

Written as a coach speaking: no streak talk, no shame, and no calorie or weight talk in nutrition reminders.
It plugs into the coaching you already do.
This is an extension of Coachful, not a second program engine bolted on beside it.
Programs
A workout or a meal plan becomes a practice inside a program week. Finishing the session ticks that day off, and it does not create a second task to tick.
Journeys
Training and nutrition can be steps in a journey, with the step completing on a performed session or a recorded meal rather than on opening a page.
Habits and check-ins
A Coachful habit can count a measurement, like water or steps, and tick itself when the reading is logged. The weekly fitness check-in is a screen inside a normal Coachful flow, so you can add your own questions to it.
The client record
Workouts, meals, measurements and reviews sit on the same client page as their notes, sessions, payments and forms.
The Coachful assistant
Ask Coachful to draft a workout, a recipe or a meal plan, or to summarize what a client has logged. Meal plans are built from your own recipes first, and anything it had to estimate is labelled. Every write shows you exactly what it will change and waits for your confirmation.
The client home screen
Today’s training, nutrition focus, progress and the weekly check-in are home widgets you place yourself, and hide for the clients who should not see them.
What it does, and what it does not.
The second list is the reason to trust the first one.
It does
- Builds workouts, exercises, recipes, recipe books and multi-day meal plans, versioned, with your own units, or starts them from eighteen templates.
- Logs sets with previous recorded values, personal bests, an estimated one-rep max, and separate left and right entries.
- Runs supersets, circuits, intervals, AMRAP and EMOM on a guided clock, with substitutions you approved in advance.
- Tracks nutrition as habits, a journal, protein, calories and macros, or a meal plan, with training and rest day targets.
- Looks up 5,431 everyday foods and packaged products by search or barcode, records portions, and stores private meal photos.
- Scans a product barcode with the phone camera and logs the product it finds.
- Records weight, measurements and custom metrics you define, plus private progress photos with side-by-side comparison.
- Gives you an attention queue, performed against prescribed evidence, reviews with private audio or video feedback, and form checks with comments pinned to the second.
- Runs opt-in challenges on workouts, training minutes, sets, volume, logging days or check-ins, never on body measurements.
- Binds to program weeks and journey steps, and sends in-app and push reminders in the client’s own time zone.
It does not
- It does not sync with Apple Health or Android Health Connect yet. Steps, sleep and weight come in by CSV import today.
- It does not connect to Garmin, Fitbit, Whoop or Oura.
- It does not include exercise demonstration videos. The library is illustrated, and you attach your own videos.
- It does not read a photo of a meal and guess the calories.
- It does not change a client’s program on its own. Progression is proposed and you approve it.
- It is not a medical or diagnostic tool. Its observations point at evidence and stay descriptive.
- It is not HIPAA-certified. It is GDPR-ready, with full export and erasure.
Body data is the most personal thing a client will give you.
You can turn a module on. You cannot turn a client’s consent on for them.
The client decides what they share
Training, nutrition and measurements are separate choices. A client can read the plan you wrote, the targets you set and the names of the metrics you enabled before sharing anything at all, and can withdraw a category later without losing the plan.
Progress photos are private by default
Photos are stripped of their location and camera data, stored away from public URLs, and only ever returned to an authenticated request that is allowed to make it. There is no photo analysis.
Turning the pack off does not erase the work
Uninstalling hides the extra tabs, widgets and reminders and stops new logging. Histories, plans, targets, assets and client settings are kept, so reinstalling later picks up where it left off.
Export and erasure cover all of it
Workouts, meals, measurements, photos, weekly check-ins and reviews are part of the normal Coachful data export and account erasure, not a separate store you have to chase.
Straight answers
What coaches ask before they switch their training and nutrition work over.
It is a power-up you install inside your existing Coachful workspace, and it adds training and nutrition coaching to the business you already run there. You get a workout builder, an exercise library, eighteen templates, recipes and meal plans, nutrition targets, a progress record, form checks and a review queue; your clients get workout logging, a food log and their measurements inside the same branded app they already sign in to. Coaches who choose fitness or nutrition coaching during setup get it installed for them.
No. Training and nutrition appear inside the Coachful app they already have, under your brand, with the same login. There is no second subscription for them and no second inbox for you.
Yes. When you set the pack up you choose Nutrition only, Training only, both, or Progress only, and the parts you did not choose never appear for you or your clients. Each client is then set up individually, so a nutrition-only client in a mostly training practice is normal rather than a workaround.
No. Nutrition can be coached five ways: habits, a written food journal, protein only, calories and macros, or a structured meal plan. Calories are a separate display setting, so a client who should not be watching a calorie number does not have to see one.
They log each set against what they lifted last time, with previous values shown beside the prescription and personal bests kept per movement. Supersets, circuits, intervals, AMRAP and EMOM run on a guided clock, alternatives you approved in advance can be swapped in, and left and right sides are logged separately when the movement needs it.
A session they already started keeps working offline and syncs when the connection comes back. Starting a brand new workout needs a connection, because access, consent and the current plan are checked on the server before a session is issued.
Yes. The client points the phone camera at the barcode, and the product is looked up and added to their food log. They can also type the barcode or search the food database by name, and every scanner state, including a refused camera or no camera at all, offers typing the barcode instead.
Not yet. Today the way to bring steps, sleep and weight in is a CSV import, which takes a file exported from a tracker and lands the daily values on the client’s progress record. Device sync for Apple Health and Android Health Connect is built and will arrive with a future release of the mobile app; until it ships, CSV import is the honest answer.
Yes, eighteen of them. There are eleven four-week training blocks (from full body and upper/lower to 5×5, kettlebell, home and mobility), four nutrition approaches and three meal plans. Each one installs into your library as an editable draft in your language, and you can copy a week, a block or a whole client plan in one step.
Yes. A client films one movement and sends it with a question, during a workout or after it. You watch it at quarter, half or full speed, pin comments to the exact second, and the client is notified when your answer is ready. The video is stored privately and is only ever shown to the client and their coach.
Yes. Clients see the measurements you enabled as tiles, with BMI worked out from weight and height, and they can add or remove measurements of their own and set a goal on one. Numbers are shown by default; calories can be hidden for a client who should not watch them.
No. The library has 601 illustrated exercises, and the illustration shows the movement rather than a person performing it. You can attach your own demonstration video to any exercise, which is usually what coaches want anyway, because clients copy their coach.
The client decides, one category at a time, and they can read the plan and targets you wrote before they share anything. Progress photos are private to them unless they choose otherwise, are stripped of location and camera data, and are only ever returned to an authenticated request that is allowed to make it.
Uninstalling hides the extra tabs, widgets and reminders and stops new logging. Histories, plans, targets, assets and client settings are kept, so reinstalling later picks up where you left off rather than starting from an empty workspace.

in the same app.
Choose fitness or nutrition coaching when you set up and the power-up is installed for you. Your clients keep the login they already have.
