About

TrainerPad

Features
Read full description

TrainerPad is the in-session logging app for personal trainers who train clients in person. Not a gym-management suite, not a remote-coaching platform โ€” just a fast way to log a session and remember exactly where your client left off. Most trainers still track sessions in a notebook, the Notes app, or memory. TrainerPad beats all three: log a set in one tap, one-handed, mid-set. HOW IT WORKS Every exercise opens pre-filled with what your client lifted last time. Confirm it with one tap, or nudge the weight with a stepper. No keyboard, ever, mid-session. WHAT'S INSIDE โ€ข Recency-sorted client list โ€” see who's up next at a glance โ€ข One-tap set logging, anchored on last time โ€ข Built-in, rule-based progression suggestions โ€” not AI hype, just the math a good trainer already runs in their head โ€ข Editable routines per client, reused every session โ€ข Body check-ins โ€” bodyweight, measurements, optional photos โ€” on their own weekly or monthly cadence, never on the fast in-session path โ€ข Auto-built progress reports, shared straight to WhatsApp โ€” no app, no login, no friction for your client โ€ข Works with zero signal โ€” everything saves to your phone first; sign in to back up to the cloud and sync across devices TWO KINDS OF PROGRESS Not every client is chasing a heavier bar. TrainerPad tracks both sides: - Performance โ€” load, reps, volume, and estimated 1RM, every session - Body & outcome โ€” bodyweight and measurements, on a periodic check-in The report leads with whatever's actually improving for that client, because that's what makes them want to keep booking. WHO IT'S FOR In-person personal trainers who want to log faster, recall more, and send a report that keeps clients coming back. Deliberately no payments, invoicing, access control, or video library โ€” just the parts that make you faster than a notebook. PRICING Free for your first 5 clients, on-device, no credit card required. Paid plans add cloud backup, multi-device sync, and room for a bigger client list as your business grows. Available in English and Spanish. Terms of Use (EULA): https://trainerpad.app/terms Privacy Policy: https://trainerpad.app/privacy-policy
