Programmes and routines

The difference between a routine and a programme, the built-in ones, and how to build your own.

For coaches, families, players

A routine is one workout: exercises in order, each with sets, reps or seconds, and rest. A programme is a few weeks of sessions that ask a little more each week.

A programme: who on the team is following it and the weekly schedule.

Building your own

  1. On Train, press New routine or New programme.
  2. For a routine, add exercises in order and set Sets, Reps or Seconds, and Rest. Join exercises to make a circuit: one set of each in turn, for a number of rounds.
  3. For a programme, add phases with a number of weeks, sessions per week, and the targets for each week.
  4. Save it, then set it for a team.

Families and players can make their own routines too, with New routine on their Train page.
