Pricing models vary: some charge per client (e.g., Trainerize at $45-70/month), others offer flat-rate unlimited plans (e.g., My PT Hub at $55/month).

How do personal trainers create workout plans?

Personal trainers create workout plans by selecting exercises, organizing them into training days, setting parameters (sets, reps, rest periods, weight), and assigning the plan to a client. With Extreme Fitness, trainers use an advanced workout builder that supports supersets, giant sets, and exercise groups. They choose from a library of 1000+ exercises with video demonstrations, create reusable templates to save time, and generate branded PDF reports of the completed plan for clients.

What body measurements should personal trainers track?

Personal trainers should track a combination of weight-based and circumference-based measurements to get a complete picture of client progress. Key measurements include: weight, body fat percentage, BMI, waist circumference, hip circumference, chest, shoulders, arms (biceps), thighs, calves, neck, and forearms. Extreme Fitness supports 12+ body measurements with visual progress charts, making it easy to document transformations and include data in professional reports.

Can personal trainers share workout plans online with clients?

Yes. Modern personal trainer software allows sharing workout plans digitally. With Extreme Fitness, trainers share plans via secure public links that clients access from any device without creating an account or downloading an app. Plans can also be generated as branded PDF reports for download and printing. This is especially useful for online coaches who work with clients remotely.

How does AI help personal trainers create diet plans?

AI helps personal trainers create diet plans by generating personalized nutrition recommendations based on client data such as goals (weight loss, muscle gain, maintenance), dietary restrictions, allergies, food preferences, and caloric needs. Extreme Fitness uses AI to generate complete meal plans with macronutrient breakdowns, supplement recommendations, and foods-to-avoid lists. Trainers can regenerate individual sections or the entire plan with one click, saving hours of manual nutrition planning.

What is the difference between gym management software and personal trainer software?

Gym management software focuses on facility operations — membership billing, class scheduling, access control, and front-desk management. Personal trainer software focuses on coaching delivery — workout plan creation, client progress tracking, exercise libraries, and nutrition planning. Extreme Fitness bridges both by offering personal trainer features (workout building, progress tracking, AI diet plans) plus gym management features (multi-organization support, trainer team management, custom branding per location).
