How to use Training
Your coach writes the week; you train from it on your iPhone. This page is the short version of both halves.
For athletes
Join your team
Your coach adds you to the team and sends you an invite: a link and a six-digit code. Open the link on your iPhone and it opens Training and joins your team. Without the link, open Training, tap Join and type the code. Then pick your units and your bar; you can change both later in Settings.
Once your coach publishes a week, it shows on Today. Until then the screen says so.
Today
Today, at the top of Workouts, shows the day's sessions, already read from your coach's week: lifts with their sets and loads, runs with their reps and rests, in the coach's order. Tap Start to begin. Days ahead are under Upcoming, days you missed under Not done, and finished workouts under Done.
Tick every set
Each set is filled in from what you lifted last time. Tap a set to change the weight or the reps, and tap the circle when it's done. A run's rep takes a time; type it, or tick it without one. A finished exercise folds itself away. Tap Finish when you're done: the workout goes to your coach with every set.
Tap Plates under a weight to see how it loads on the bar, or build the bar plate by plate and tap Use.
Skip a day
Can't train? Swipe a day's workout and choose Skip Workout, or tap + and Skip a Day, and say why in a few words (sick, exam, travel). Your coaches are told, and the day reads Skipped with your reason instead of Not done.
The Apple Watch
With the Watch app, your workout is on your wrist: the same sets, ticked there. The Watch also has a stopwatch for timing reps: Start, then Rest when the rep ends, Go for the next one, Lap for splits, End when you're done. On an Apple Watch Ultra the Action button presses Start, Rest and Go.
Send to iPhone, at the foot of the stopwatch's reps page, sends the finished reps to the workout on your phone.
Times from your Watch, and from your coach
Times from the Watch wait on the workout until you look at them. Tap Review: each time is paired with the rep it goes on; tap one to leave it out, then Fill. A time never overwrites one you already logged.
Your coach can time a rep from their own phone while you train. The time lands on that rep as soon as you tick it; times for reps you haven't ticked yet wait for Review in the same way.
Ask
Ask, the round button beside the tabs, answers questions about your own training in plain words: how your squat has moved since September, what you ran last week, whether you're on track for a goal. It reads your log and your goals on your phone, points you to the screen it's talking about, and never changes your coach's plan. It needs Use AI on in Settings.
Goals and results
Under You, add your goals (a time, a distance, a height, a points score) and your competition results. Results go to your team. Goals stay on your phone unless you turn on Share goals.
What your team sees
Because you're on a team, your finished workouts, the day's workout while it's under way, your absences and your competition results go to your coaches. Your notes go only with Share notes on; your goals only with Share goals. Share training lets teammates who also share see each other's sets during the day's workouts, nothing older and never notes. All of this is in Settings, under Team, and Leave Team deletes what you shared from the team.
For coaches
Sign in
Go to coach.weights.page and enter your email. We send a six-digit code; there's no password. The first time, you name your team and pick its time zone, and the portal opens on Setup, a short checklist you can do in any order.
Columns and groups
A week is a grid, and its columns are the headings you'd write across the top of your sheet: one per group that trains differently (Sprints, Hurdles, Jumps, Throws) or one per athlete. A group is a saved set of athletes that a column points at, so you pick them once and every week after follows. Each athlete's column is what they do; you set it when you add them.
Write and publish the week
Days down the side, columns across the top. Each cell names the day's sessions, like Speed A or Lift 2, and each session is written once under the week, in your words: 4x4 cleans (from box), 3x150m @ 90% (5' rest). Training reads each line as you type and shows what the athlete will get; when it reads something differently from what you meant, fix the line or pick the reading. You can also paste a session from the sheet you already have and use Read with AI.
Nothing reaches athletes until you publish. Then every athlete gets the week at once, with only the sessions for their columns. If you change the week afterwards, the portal shows what changed, and publishing again sends it.
Invite athletes and coaches
On Team, add an athlete by name and column. They get an invite that works once for 14 days: a link and a six-digit code, with Copy, Share and a QR code, and Print invites makes a card per athlete. Add a coach by email; they sign in with it. Any coach can be allowed to plan the team.
Live, and timing reps
While the team trains, Live shows each athlete's workout as it happens, set by set, in the portal and in the coach's app. In the app, Team Timer picks an athlete and gives you one big Start and Stop; the time goes onto their next rep at once, with Undo. On an athlete's workout, Time on any rep opens the same timer for that rep, and Start for them starts the day's workout for an athlete who hasn't yet.
Ask
Ask in the portal answers questions over everything you can see: who missed sessions this week, how an athlete's squat has moved, what the sprinters ran in October. It points you to the page it's talking about, and each Sunday it writes a short summary of the week. Athletes' notes are read only when the athlete allows it.
