Accessing and Previewing Training
When an athlete logs into the Relay app, their training is front and center. We designed the interface to remove any guesswork from their day.Viewing Assigned Programs
Athletes can clearly see all active programs you have assigned to them. Whether it’s their main team macrocycle or a supplemental rehab program, it all aggregates into one clean daily schedule.Previewing the Workout
Before they even step onto the gym floor, athletes can tap into their daily calendar to preview the upcoming session. They can review the exercise list, watch your embedded YouTube videos, and read your coaching instructions so they know exactly what equipment to grab and what to expect.Executing the Session
Relay is designed to be a digital training partner, not a rigid spreadsheet. Once an athlete hits Start Workout, they enter execution mode.Inputting Values
As they move through the workout, athletes will input their data directly into the fields you established during your Exercise Library setup (e.g., logging the weight used and reps completed for a back squat, or the time and distance for a sprint).On-the-Fly Adjustments
The reality of training is that equipment gets taken or minor tweaks happen. Athletes have the flexibility to make adjustments during their workout:- Change Parameters: They can edit the prescribed sets, reps, or weights if they need to scale a movement up or down.
- Swap Exercises: If a specific machine is unavailable, they can swap out the prescribed exercise for an alternative.
Tracking Progress & 1RMs
To keep athletes motivated and progressing, Relay puts their historical data right at their fingertips.Viewing Exercise History
While performing an exercise, athletes can easily tap to view their past history for that specific movement. They don’t have to guess what they lifted last week—the app shows them exactly what they did, helping them make informed choices for their current sets.Managing 1-Rep Maxes (1RMs)
Accurate 1RMs are the engine that drives percentage-based programming.- Manual Entry: Athletes can manually set and update their 1RM for core lifts.
- Auto-Estimation: If an athlete hasn’t formally tested a 1RM, Relay uses their logged training history (weight x reps) to automatically estimate their 1RM. This ensures that any percentage-based targets you program will automatically scale to their current strength level, even without a formal test day.
