I did not need or want messaging or onboarding service, just an app that tracked strength and worked seamlessly and this was it! Pros The metrics I need for my coaching are volume and 1RM, this app tracks it easily for me and my clients. Cons The social media style homepage and aspect, I found no use in it however some of my clients have enjoyed it.

Personal Trainer Health, Wellness and Fitness Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Great app for all personal trainers! " March 1, 2026 5.0 It has been a game changer for creating and tracking client workouts for me! It is so much easier than following a client around with a clipboard as I used when I first started training! Pros It is easy to use and even my clients who are not tech savvy catch on quickly how it works. I like the exercise library and how easy it is to add my own custom exercises. I also like that I am able to make a program library and store my many programs to use with various clients. Cons I think it would be better if you could have more clients on the app than ten for the base fee. Maybe 15-20? When you are staring out as an PT every dollar counts. Alternatives considered [Everfit](https://www.capterra.com/p/202837/Everfit/) Reason for choosing Hevy Coach A personal trainer friend was using Hevy app with his clients and showed it to me and how it works. Review Source Katherin W. Personal trainer Health, Wellness and Fitness Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Great platform to use! " November 8, 2025 5.0 Very easy, simple to use, my clients love the format and videos that are in each workout. I also use Hevy for my own personal tracker too! Pros The software is super easy to use, my clients enjoy the platform, and it’s so easy to build new workouts on! Cons I don’t have many cons to go off, maybe just that I can’t access programs I built on my personal page. Another is there’s not many options for nutrition or meal planning. Switched from [My PT Hub](https://www.capterra.com/p/146651/My-PT-Hub/) Better value for my money and easier to use Review Source AE Andrew E. Owner Health, Wellness and Fitness Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Hevy is by far my preferred coaching app." March 23, 2026 5.0 10/10. Can’t shut up about it. I’ve used both Hevy Coach and Hevy for my own programming. Really just being able to make the user experience as seamless as possible, the ability to write custom notes in every workout, and the overview is all I need. Pros Hevy Coach is the most user friendly coaching app I’ve used with my personal training clients. I’ve used apps paying 3-5x as much, and still prefer Hevy. I switched from a competitor where I was paying $250 a month simply for the user experience being so much more seamless. Anything to simply the process for my clients I will do - and that’s what Hevy Coach specializes at. Cons It’s a big ask, and I would expect a price increase if this was ever available, but custom branding and white labeling would be incredible. Switched from [ABC Trainerize](https://www.capterra.com/p/140262/Trainerize/) Trainerize was way too complicated and not a clean user interface. Also no ability to for the client to write custom notes in their workout sucked. Review Source Calvin S. Personal Trainer Sports Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Simple and Wonderful, Just Needs Macro Connections and Some QOL Improvements" April 3, 2026 4.0 I'm extremely happy with my experience overall, and I will be using this for my 20 in-person clients and possibly to expand my business online. There are some QOL features and Macro tracking integrations I want to see in the near future but I absolutely see and appreciate the vision for a training app without the fluff. For an in-person trainer this system is almost perfect. Pros I love that Hevy Coach has mostly stripped out the random nonsense that many apps have; it's easy to use for both the trainer and the client. It's clear to me that client experience comes first, because the "client" experience used to be the only experience. I absolutely love the UI. Simple, pleasing colors, great videos, super easy to add clients and assign programs to them. Cons While simplicity is great, I think there could be tools that allow for programming to go a bit faster. I often find myself wanting to make changes and having to do them one by one manually is a challenge. If I could group similar demographic clients together and apply changes to all of them at once while keeping their individual weights that would be great. I also hope that connections to macro-tracking apps like Macrofactor will be added soon. It would allow me to have a more holistic view of my clients lifestyles when I'm not with them.

Personal Trainer Professional Training & Coaching Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "You HAVE to try Hevy Coach" April 18, 2026 4.0 After trying multiple different coaching apps, I launched my online personal training on hevy and I am so glad I did. It allows me to easily connect with my clients, assign them personalized programs and see their progress. Pros Hevy Coach is so easy to use and incredibly customizable, any coach could coach any client on it! It is much cheaper while being much more effective than any other apps I have tried. My favorite feature is that you can build your own custom exercise library, with custom instructions and videos under every exercise. Cons The mobile app only allows you to chat or log your clients workouts. I would prefer if there were more options when on the go. Review Source AC Alejandro C. Personal trainer Health, Wellness and Fitness Used the software for: I used a free trial ### "Great app for coaching and training " April 20, 2026 5.0 It has been great and I am really surprise on how useful it has been for my routine tracking but also for my coaching Pros It is so easy to create routines and then track it on the app. Also, the iWatch functionality is perfect. It allows you to continue training without getting distracted by holding your phone. I like the fact you can track your RPE and see the history of each exercise, which helps a lot with the progressive overload. Cons At the moment I have not deal with any issue in this app. Seems really good to me. I haven't use much the feed of the app but maybe it could be good to have a function for finding people by location? in that way you could meet people training around you. Review Source Steen M. Coach Health, Wellness and Fitness Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Hevy coach review " March 15, 2026 5.0 Overall, I’m super happy with my experience using the platform. It has definitely made my online coaching experience easier!! Pros I really enjoy how easy it is to keep track of my clients progress and deliver training programs. I also love the exercise library and how I can create my own custom exercises. Cons I wish the mobile app was as good as the website. It would’ve been easier to manage clients. No cons apart from this really. Review Source DA Dario A. Personal Trainer Sports Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Easy to Use coaching software " March 3, 2026 5.0 So far my experience with Hevy coach has been positive and my clients have been enjoying the switch! Pros Hevy coach gives both coach’s and clients a easy to use solution solution to coaching both in person and online, the interface is easy to use and covers the main basis of assigning programs, logging body weight/ other measurements and tracking progress clients get a video demonstration of the exercise to give them a quick reminder of form Cons The aspects I would say Hevy coach would need to improve on is being able to log nutritional data for your clients as well as a bette way to track/ Add cardiovascular fitness workouts e.g. Running, swimming etc Review Source DS Drake S. entrepreneur Sports Used the software for: I used a free trial ### "Great but rpe needs revamp for powerlifters" March 4, 2026 5.0 Overall pretty good and just wanting rpe changed but I also understand powerlifting is more of a niche and not a summary people use it. Pros It’s very user friendly for me and my clients. It’s very simple and you can out in your own exercises so you can always get the point across Cons Can’t put an RPE under 6. As a powerlifting coach in earlier weeks on compounds we often have light rpe for form and technique work so being able to out RPE under 6 would be very useful. Review Source RW Rowena W. Owner and coach Sports Used the software for: I used a free trial ### "Best app for my specific needs" March 23, 2025 5.0 I love it. I know this app will improve more and more. Pros I love that the workout programs don’t have to be linked to a specific day. Apps that start screaming “you missed your workout” almost drive me nuts. This app doesn’t have that nonsense. Awesome! Cons The coach app could be better. I would like to be able to track clients progress there as well and I’d like notifications when they complete something. Switched from [Harbiz](https://www.capterra.com/p/201790/DudyFit/) I wanted the option foe my clients to choose what they would work on today. Harbiz or any other app couldn’t make that happen. Hevy can. Review Source AMH Arthur Mjelde H. Personal Trainer Health, Wellness and Fitness Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Work smarter not harder" May 7, 2024 5.0 It has completly rejuvenated my PT and online coaching career, i work so more effective. I would recommend this to every coach/PT who want to take there career too the next level Pros The look and feel factor is the best i ever tried. interactive, motivating for the clients for me its easy too use and it has 10x my ability to take on new clients. Cons With great customer support, and every day getting new features i cant really say any thing is in dislike. Most of my needs are being met, and my wishes are being fulfilled one update at a time. its actualy hard to say what i like the most beacuse they keep adding new stuff Switched from [TrueCoach](https://www.capterra.com/p/155784/truecoach/) I used many different plattforms previously. I was recomended it by a former client. Review Source RK Rashid K. Founder Health, Wellness and Fitness Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "My clients love Hevy" December 6, 2023 5.0 The customer support and team are extremely friendly and always respond to feature requests and work on them. Most other apps leave you in the inbox with a thank you message and take months if not years to process your feature request. Pros It's a simple and easy dashboard that has a very clean app with UI. It has all of the tools required to track progressive overload and make sure clients are enjoying their workouts. Compared to other apps they're either too confusing or have too many bells and whistles that make it confusing for clients. Hevy does a very good job at keeping things simple but extremely effective and easy to use. My clients love it. Cons The only struggle with Hevy is that for a fitness coach to provide full transformation it would be great to have it integrate with apple health so we can see data on sleep, steps, and so on. Switched from [ABC Trainerize](https://www.capterra.com/p/140262/Trainerize/) Hevy is 10x simpler to use. Trainerize tried to become too many bells and whistles that were unnecessary. Hevy was simple and straight to the point and was easier for clients to use. Data Visualization on Trainerize was horrible. If you use Hevy you can EASILY see your clients progressive overload stats, volume stats, duration stats, everything can be viewed easily with charts innate in Hevy. While Trainerize you have to export data into a extremely messy excel file and then spend hours trying to clean it up to create graph. Review Source ES Elizabeth S. Personal Trainer Health, Wellness and Fitness Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Amazing App" April 3, 2024 5.0 My experience has been great. The app is easy to use and understand. The client data is so easy to put in and keep track of. Chatting with my clients is so easy! Pros I love the ease of this app, compared to previous fitness apps I have used. I can change things and add things quickly. I can check on clients and chat. The clients have all loved it after I switched to this app due to being able to now have other people to see progress and keep them motivated! The app lets you friend others and follow them! I love it! Cons The only downfall I see in the app is that it doesn't have a "nutrition" section for clients. It would be great if they added a spot where I can add someone's macros/calories etc to their accounts. Switched from [ABC Trainerize](https://www.capterra.com/p/140262/Trainerize/) I didn't like the app that much, my clients were confused about how to use it, and adding and deleting stuff was not very easy. Review Source RA Rayan A. Personal Trainer Health, Wellness and Fitness Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Coaching with Simplicity" June 5, 2025 5.0 Simple, straight forward; There are lots of coaching platform out there.. but I would say, Im good with this one so I'll be sticking to this and would highly recommend it with my co-coaches. Pros Ive tried multiple platforms, and I would say this is the simpliest coaching app I've ever used so far and I love it. Now I transferred my clients to this platform and been using it since then. Cons I hope they can put Total Muscle Mass Measurement because its something that I track with my clients, not just bodyweight and fats. Whole Body Composition updates in it would be a game changer for us Trainers. Switched from [Spur.Fit](https://www.capterra.com/p/10013040/Spur-Fit/) Its just so simple in HEVY and I love it. Review Source IM Iman M. Personal Trainer Health, Wellness and Fitness Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "A hevy heart (positive)." March 3, 2025 4.0 I chose Heavy Coach after being a user of Heavy for my personal use for the past 4 ish years, it left a great impression and was close to my heart as a personal tracking app. When I became a personal trainer and saw Hevy Coach exists, I knew it would be the programming and training service for me. It has been great for me (a fledgling personal trainer) to show myself as professional and offer multiple services. Pros I love having all my clients in one space and being able to alter and assign programs easily. Cons I wish the App was as functional as the Website! But overall, it's not too impractical to just log in on my browser. Review Source SS Scott S. Strength Trainer Sports Used the software for: I used a free trial ### "See Results. Use HevyCoach." March 5, 2025 5.0 The HevyCoach app makes my role as a trainer a breeze. It’s so simple to use and has a TON of proven programs & exercises that I can use to fit my clients needs. The PR medals that it rewards at the end of a workout are little accomplishments for my clients to chase. It’s user-friendly and packed full of helpful statistics to ensure success. Pros I absolutely love the HevyCoach Program & Excercise Libraries. An insane value to offer clients! Cons My only wish was that Hevy got into nutrition tracking. Hevy does everything better than anyone and it would nice to have everything all in one place. Review Source NE Nick E. Personal Trainer Health, Wellness and Fitness Used the software for: I used a free trial ### "Best coaching app!" February 12, 2025 5.0 I really enjoyed using this app. As an online coach, this app helped me a lot. I used to everything manually before via Google sheets, but this app made my life easier. I also use Hevy for my personal progress. I always recommend this to my fitness-driven friends and co-fitness coaches. Pros Very convenient for both clients & coaches. Cons No steps tracker, and doesn’t sync well in Hevy Coach app and client’s. Review Source SL Shawn L. Fencing Strength and Conditioning Coach Sports Used the software for: I used a free trial ### "Straightforward, everything you need for a gym and progress tracking app. " February 27, 2025 5.0 Highly positive, I will continue to use this platform to coach my clients virtually. Pros It’s user interface is very easy to use and clear in its description of exercises, helping newer clients understand exercises easily. Cons Not much for me to dislike, just that it would be great if they can continually update their database of exercises. It would be good if programs could be assigned to specific dates of the week, and remind the client to do that specific programme to keep them on track as well. Review Source BU Bogdan U. Personal Trainer Sports Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "I’ve been looking for months for an app like Hevy Coach" November 4, 2024 5.0 Pros Hevy Coach is the app I’ve been looking for for months: easy to use, very intuitive for my clients, and especially practical and useful for my work as a personal trainer! There are many exercises to use, with great descriptions and videos. Love both apps Hevy coach and Hevy for my clients. Cons After two months of use, I haven’t found any downsides; so far, it’s been perfect for me, great exercises description and love the possibility to upload my videos. Review Source AN Antonia N.

Pros An exceptional platform that provides everything under one umbrella, I have honestly not seen anything as versatile, user-friendly, and affordable on the market over the years of coaching. Cons The ability to white label the app with my branding. Review Source OT Owen T. Personal Trainer Professional Training & Coaching Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Hevy review " August 16, 2024 5.0 Overall I am very pleased with hevy, with a few additions it would be absolutely perfect, would still highly recommend this to any personal trainer Pros How easy it is for my clients and how if they aren’t training with me it gives them a visual image to help if they forget a certain exercise. Cons The only con is not having a app for myself to use when coaching my clients that automatically updates their plans afterwards Review Source MH Max H.

Makes my job easier with my clients. Pros I have direct access to what my clients see and dont on their profile. Really simple and easy to use. The "auto save" feature while creating is also appreciated. Cons I often have to create my own exercises since the app's library is quite basic Review Source Similar Products Featured
