Adding a New Program Template
A Program Template is a master program you can create and save in your library to use again and again with different clients, saving you time and work. Also, once you assign a program template to a specific client, you can modify the copy of the program in that client’s account. Please remember that changes you make in a specific client’s program are NOT saved in your master Program Template library.
Creating or editing a workout or program can only be done on the desktop app.
After logging in to your GymCloud account, you will be directed to the Dashboard page. You will see a list on the left side of the page. Click Program Templates.
Clicking Program Templates will redirect you to your Program List page, where you can see all the programs in your library. To create a new program, click the Add Program Template button at the top of the page.
Next, an Add Program Template pop-up box will appear. Type the name of your new program and click Add Program Template. (In this case, we are creating a "Weight Loss" program.)
