3. Create a Workout Collection
Step 1: Create a new collection
a. To create a Workout Collection, simply click on the “+ Create New Collection” button at the top right of the “Workout Collections” page.
b. Add Collection Name and Collection Type for the new collection.
c. When you are inside the new collection, add a cover image and description. A nice cover image will make the collection appears nicely on the client app’s on-demand screen.
Step 2: Create a Category
You can use Category as a way to organize your collections. Here are some examples of how you can name your categories:
Categorize the collection by topics (eg. skills, tactics, rules, etc)
Categorize the collections by training timeline (eg. week 1, week 2, week 3, etc)
Categorize the collection by workout type (eg. HIIT, Cardio, Tabata, etc)
There are so many ways you can play with categories to make your content hub searchable and convenient for your clients!
a. Click “+ Create New Category” to add a new category to your collection. Name the category. Then you will be redirected to the Category Detail screen.
b. Give the category more details by adding a Category cover image and Category description.
Step 3: Add on-demand workouts into each category
You can choose the workout to add from your “On-demand Workouts” list. There is no limit to the number of workouts that you can add to a category.
You can also search and filter for the desired workouts. If you couldn't find a workout you want in the list, you can click “Add New On-Demand Workout” and it will bring you back to the “On-demand Workouts” page.
You can easily rearrange the order of the workouts inside a category. You can also move the workout to the bottom of the list or to the top of the list.
Step 4: Activate the categories to make them available to the collection.
You can always deactivate and reactivate it again to control what you want to be visible in the workout collection at different times.
Step 5: Design and Publish your Workout Collections
Back to the Workout Collections page, you can find all the Categories you created showing up as a list and a preview phone screen on the right side to check how your clients view the collection in real-time.
Only “Active” categories can be shown on the preview phone screen.
All finished? You can then publish the workout collection by using the dropdown to change from Draft to Published.
Click on the Format button to open the popup, pick the card design, and update! You can choose from one of 4 layouts for each category to display your workout collection.
4. How to Assign Clients to a Collection
To assign clients, click on the Clients tab at the top of the page. You can search for your clients and simply click on the client to add them. A list of selected clients will appear on the right side for you to review and save.
