Trainers and clients

Anyone can be a client, a trainer, or both. A client can request a trainer, or a trainer can request a client; either direction creates a pending link that doesn’t yet grant full access. Once the other side accepts, the link becomes active.

An active trainer/client link gives the trainer access to that client’s journal in review mode — sessions, templates, programs, profile, progress, equipment, notes, achievements, weekly reviews, and AI notes, where the app exposes those sections — and lets the trainer start and manage sessions for that client. These views update in real time as the client trains.

A trainer can remove a client from their bookshelf, which revokes the link. Removing the link removes the trainer’s access — it does not delete the client’s own training history.
