Exercise library

An exercise library that shows clients how it’s done. No more hunting for YouTube links.

Find the exercise, check the demo and drag it straight into the program. Clients see a clean demonstration next to the exercise in their app. Use the built-in exercises with GIF demos, or add your own with your own video.

Coachplan's built-in exercise library: every exercise with an illustrated GIF demo, next to your own exercises and categories

An exercise library is the collection of exercises, with demos and instructions, that you build your programs from. In Coachplan, the library sits inside the workout builder, so you find the exercise, check the demo and add it to the program without switching tabs.

Every YouTube link comes with ads and distractions

Searching for a demo video, copying the link, pasting it into the program. And then the client watches an ad and three suggested videos before the one you meant.

Without Coachplan

  • Searching YouTube for a demo video every time
  • Links copied and pasted into programs by hand
  • Clients seeing ads and suggestions instead of the exercise
  • Demo quality that varies from one client to the next

With Coachplan

  • Built-in exercises with GIF demos, ready to use
  • Drag the exercise straight into the program
  • A clean, ad-free demo in the client’s app
  • Your own exercises with your own video, stored once

How the exercise library works

Four parts, from searching to the exercise showing up in your client’s program.

Search

Find the exercise in seconds

Search by name or filter by category. Mark your favorites and see your recently used exercises straight away, so you never look for the same exercise twice.

The right exercise without leaving the program

Exercise library inside the Coachplan workout builder: search, favorites and recently used, with a drag handle and add button on every exercise

More than an exercise database

Inside the workout builder

Drag exercises from the library into the program. No copying, no loose links, and the demo follows the exercise to the client’s app.

Your own exercises

Upload your own exercises with video and instructions, for special techniques and the way you like to coach.

Alternative exercises

Link up to 3 alternatives to an exercise, each with its own sets and load, so the client has a backup if one doesn’t suit them.

Favorites and recently used

Your go-to exercises are always close at hand, so programs come together faster.

Ad-free for clients

Clients see a clean demo in the app, with no YouTube ads, suggestions or distractions.

Filter by category

Exercises are grouped into categories such as strength, mobility, cardio and rehab, so you can narrow the list quickly.
