Personal Trainer Health, Wellness and Fitness Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Huge Timer Saver" July 24, 2022 5.0 Pros The copying, pasting and editing features are extremely helpful for me. I can create my own programs and easily pull pieces from it for specific clients. Cons On the browser, I can’t see a full view of a week. They layout doesn’t fit the page, and I’d like to view things, scroll, and edit more easily. Switched from [Evernote Teams](https://www.capterra.com/p/154969/Evernote-Business/) My last company provided it for me and it became a game changer for remote work! I stuck with it when I went out on my own.

General Manage / Personal Trainer Sports Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Big Fan of True Coach" July 27, 2022 5.0 Overall, I love this software and recommend that my entire staff use it. Pros I love how it handles literally every aspect of being a coach. From programming, to billing, to tracking progress, setting goals, notes, etc...It helps me keep everything so organized. Cons The only thing I dislike is the low-functionality of the coaching app. Review Source CN Christopher N. Owner Health, Wellness and Fitness Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Great Coach to Athlete software. " July 25, 2022 5.0 Pros Love the ease in which I can customize programs for my clients. Video editing and voice over is a breeze! Thanks Cons Calendars move too fast, one wrong move with my thumb and I'm months away from the week I'm looking at... really a small price to pay for such an excellent product.

Review Source MS Melanie S. owner Professional Training & Coaching Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Perfect Remote Coaching Software" August 30, 2022 5.0 Overall, I love this software. It allows me to track all of my clients' workouts and histories. I can program their workouts and they are delivered seamlessly. I have had great experiences with customer service over the years. Pros I love that the users have an easy to use app that delivers the workouts easily. I especially like that I can upload my own videos for each exercise that I assign to my clients. Cons I wish there were an app for the coaches to do programming and workout edits/tracking. If I want to track workout metrics during an in-person coaching session, it is a bit clumsy to use the program in my phone's browser. Review Source VR Verified Reviewer Founder & Personal Trainer Health, Wellness and Fitness Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "A year and a half in..." November 6, 2018 4.0 I tried a trial membership with Trainerize and didn’t like the limited formatting as it didn’t vibe with my style or flow of training. TrueCoach has been much more cohesive from the get go and their customer service when I’ve had questions has always been quick, easy and super friendly. Pros Overall, the ease and flexibility of the platform suits my needs superbly. Learning the software from my clients’ perspective has been intuitive and easy for the most part, which ultimately makes my job easier. Cons I wish you could delete specific exercises from the preloaded library rather than it being an all of nothing disabling option. I know they’re working on adding functionality for taking payments, as well as a coach’s app, but those are two areas that are currently missing at the moment. I also wish we could have a more complete client profile with their address info, too. Review Source SH Simon H. Personal Trainer Leisure, Travel & Tourism Used the software for: 2+ years ### "2 years + user UK Review " July 24, 2022 5.0 Customer service on point always help, quick fast responses to help guide and scale your business. Pros Simple to program even easier to track and community with clients both users customer and coach get a complex system that’s easy to use and understand. Cons There is not a UK payment option as of yet but they have mentioned it’s in the process. Review Source SF Saul F. Coach Sports Used the software for: 2+ years ### "It has been enough" July 28, 2022 5.0 It has been ok, very small thing I would suggest Pros It’s very simple to use, for me and the clients Cons I can’t receive payments, because I’m not in the us Switched from [Microsoft Excel](https://www.capterra.com/p/176574/Excel/) I got more clients Review Source DD Danielle D. Owner Health, Wellness and Fitness Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Great for individual custom programs! " July 24, 2022 4.0 Pros Love the easiness of payment & vast movement library. Cons I wish it had more options for nutrition, like the client being able to see their nutrition history or having an option for biofeedback markers. It’s be awesome if it had the option to set up reminders for clients as well if they haven’t filled out a section yet. Alternatives considered [ABC Trainerize](https://www.capterra.com/p/140262/Trainerize/) Reason for choosing TrueCoach I was using it before & didn’t want to learn a new product. Review Source JG Jack G. Founder Health, Wellness and Fitness Used the software for: 2+ years ### "TrueCoach is the bomb " July 25, 2022 5.0 Enables me to run my business fully Pros User friendly Scalable software Good support Cons Voice notes would be a great addition and brining payments to the UK Calendly or zoom links to have meetings with clients would be good Jot form integration would be good Review Source MC Mitzi C. Personal Trainer Health, Wellness and Fitness Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Tool for Online Success" November 4, 2020 5.0 My overall expereince is positive. I have used almost all of the other competitor software options, but True Coach is by far my top pick! I have all I need in one location and I can get it done in a timely manner. Pros True Coach allows me to create programs, keep track, and communicate with my clients. The software is easy, integrative, and encouraging. My clients love the accountability and the interactive component. Cons The only cons are in the editing process. Sometimes the drag option doesn't work properly. Also, the copy paste function is not always reliable. I just see inconsistencies in the creation and editing processes. Reason for choosing TrueCoach I chose True Coach because it was easy to use with features that fit my needs. I want to create programs quickly, save them, and copy and past when needed. I like the user mode as well. My clients need the interactive component with video. It is a win win for myself and my clients. Switched from [ABC Trainerize](https://www.capterra.com/p/140262/Trainerize/) I didn't like how difficult it was to create programs. The library was limited. Also, The client portal was not easy to use. Took too much time to use for both the author and the user. Review Source HA Hannah A. Personal Trainer Health, Wellness and Fitness Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Best training program app in the market!" July 26, 2022 5.0 Love it! Pros User-friendly features. Easy to copy and overload workouts. Great library which is easy to add to as well. Cons Can’t think of anything that I wanted which is already not there.

Review Source VR Verified Reviewer Founder Health, Wellness and Fitness Used the software for: I used a free trial ### "Simple and ituitive coaching platform" August 10, 2023 5.0 It´s a nice platform to manage a fitness business, it has all the features to keep track of the clients progression and make the required adjustments. Pros True coach has one of the most simple and intuitive client apps available but it can be a bit sluggish sometimes. It provides a very sleek experience for both coaches and clients. Building programs, tracking metrics and compliance is easy and streamlined, the integration with MyfitnessPal is a plus although sometimes it takes some time to sync. Cons The pricing tiers could be improved, The 14 day free trial can be insufficient to fully grasp the platform and test it with clients, a free tier with limited clients would be interesting. Its only available in English Review Source LS Lizeth S. Founder & Coach Health, Wellness and Fitness Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "I Highly recommend TrueCoach" July 24, 2022 5.0 It was easy to use for me and my clients. I love it! Pros I love the features TrueCoach has from the ability to message my clients in the app or online, the fact that there is a coach and client app, the workout library, templates, and most importantly the calendar feature is so helpful! I also love that I can upload documents and my logo. Cons I like everything about TrueCoach. I love all the features and pricing. Alternatives considered [ABC Trainerize](https://www.capterra.com/p/140262/Trainerize/) Reason for choosing TrueCoach the features I listed above Review Source TK Troy K. Owner Health, Wellness and Fitness Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Tru Coach Review" November 1, 2020 4.0 Overall experience has been great. The side features of equipment lists, notes, or even being able to build your own programs is awesome! Also love being able to communicate to clients through the app (online). Pros I can easily build workouts, search previous history, or move workouts when needed without a hastle. My clients can also see videos of any movement, whether it's already logged with central athlete or I find something off of YouTube. Cons I don't like all of the demo videos from central athlete so I've had to either create my own or find something from YouTube. I also struggle to find some videos when I'm typing the exercise name out as it only pulls up some of the options with the similar letters that I've typed (even though what I'm looking for is in the video library). I also don't like or use the payment option through Tru Coach. It's a great feature/idea but I'm not willing to pay the higher credit card fees per client/sale to use it. There also should be an app that can be downloaded with Google/Android phones. Review Source JJ Jon J. Strength Coach Health, Wellness and Fitness Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Great community and ease of use for clients" July 24, 2022 4.0 True coach has helped me to help my clients more and stay connected outside of the gym. Pros Client support and webinars are great, you guys are the best! Its simple and straightforward for clients to use. Cons I'm unable to direct bill being in Canada.

Their teaching side of things includes some useful information for fostering growth. Pros When designing programs or workouts, the builder used in the program was extremely intuitive. Cons I would like an improved payment system that is a little lighter n the fees. Alternatives considered [ABC Trainerize](https://www.capterra.com/p/140262/Trainerize/) Reason for choosing TrueCoach I spoke with a user of true coach who highly recommended it. Review Source DJ Daniel J. Owner Health, Wellness and Fitness Used the software for: 2+ years ### "This is the the tool that can make or break your business!" October 28, 2020 5.0 TC has been a great tool AND group to work with - the team is incredibly responsive and the periodic updates to the software have been welcome (payments has been a huge plus). Pros TrueCoach does the best job helping me connect with my clients. The variety of ways in which I can create touchpoints remotely is incredibly helpful in terms of providing top-notch a service. Cons In my opinion, nothing anyone creates will replace the experience of in-person 1-to-1 training. Occasional technical glitches like the site freezing while I am programming a workout can be frustrating but not terrible enough to make me question if I should use another tool. Alternatives considered [TrainHeroic](https://www.capterra.com/p/202308/TrainHeroic/) Reason for choosing TrueCoach From the exercise library to the layout itself - TH just never felt as though I could get into a rhythm with work due to the weird learning curve.

Online Personal Trainer & Nutrition Coach Health, Wellness and Fitness Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Super easy-to-use software" July 24, 2022 5.0 Saves me so much time being able to use program templates for my clients as well as being able to easily link videos from my own video library of me demonstrating the exercises. AND I love that my clients can now be charged automatically via Stripe! Pros It makes running my business SO much easier and more professional looking! My clients LOVE it compared to my old school spreadsheet workouts with hyperlinks. Cons I’m not sure there’s anything I don’t like about it!

Nutrition integration. Review Source AS Antonio S. Strength and Conditioning Coach Health, Wellness and Fitness Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Favorite Coaching Tool" July 26, 2022 5.0 I've really enjoyed my experience with True Coach. It's really helped me stay connected with clients that I would have lost due to moving away from the area. Pros Helps me train clients that leave the area but want to continue with their fitness journey. Cons Better "how to" videos on each aspect of the back office management. Mostly easy enough to figure out but would be nice to take the guess work out.

Strength Coach Health, Wellness and Fitness Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Using TrueCoach" July 24, 2022 5.0 Pros I like the ease of use for both myself and my clients. It's simple to link videos and review their training sessions. They can communicate easily and quickly within the app. Cons Changing some things within the app that didn't need to be changed. My clients were unaware of some changes that were coming down and caused them to slow down their training sessions for a few days until they got adjusted to the user changes. Review Source CC Cody C. Coach Health, Wellness and Fitness Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Why I use True Coach " July 24, 2022 5.0 Great ! My clients live it ! Pros It’s simple professional and allows me to provide a great service. Cons I think there should be a coaches notes section for daily workouts to explain intent percentages etc. Review Source AL André L. Nutrition & Fitness Coach Health, Wellness and Fitness Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "André" July 24, 2022 5.0 Pros I like the flexibility of the software and the possibility to use own templates Cons It is only in english and most of the options are for US Citizens, I would love to use TrueCoach in german and get the same usable add-ons.
