Business & Clients
The part of the job the qualification does not teach. Getting clients, keeping them, charging properly, and keeping your own money instead of paying a cut of your skills to five different apps.
The Live Analyser Reads The Squat's Tempo And The Press-Up's Plank Line
Today's earlier two posts named the muscles a press-up trains and showed how load, speed and hold turn one squat into four different exercises. PT Manager's Live Analyser is where a trainer sees which one is actually happening, live.
PT Manager Saves The Goal, And The Live Analyser Proves The Deadlift Works
Today's earlier two posts found a client's real goal and named the muscles a deadlift trains. PT Manager is where the goal gets checked in on every week and the Live Analyser shows the lift actually earning it.
PT Manager Saves Every Block You Build, Ready For The Next Client Who Needs It
Today's earlier two posts named the muscles a lunge works and one specific way to programme progress without adding weight. PT Manager's programme builder is where a trainer actually puts the two together and keeps the result.
PT Manager's Live Analyser Shows Whether A Constraint Changed The Squat
Today's earlier two posts named a reflex and offered six ways to change a client's environment. PT Manager's Live Analyser is how a trainer sees, live, whether either one actually changed the movement.
Today's Two Posts Both End Up In The Same Place: PT Manager's Programme Builder
A reward strategy and a TGROW plan are both agreed in conversation. PT Manager's programme builder is where either one gets saved against a client's own record.
A Client's Progress Only Counts If You Can Find It Again
Checking evidence and reading real function both need somewhere to land. PT Manager's client record holds a trainer's notes against every session, and the Live Analyser turns what a trainer sees into a number on that record.
PT Manager Shows The PAR-Q Flag Before The First Exercise Gets Demonstrated
PT Manager's client record holds each client's PAR-Q answers and flags contraindications before a programme is built, so a trainer walks into that first demonstration already knowing what to hold back.
PT Manager's Live Analyser Shows A Progression Working And Backs The Number Up
PT Manager's Live Analyser reads joint angle, depth and tempo live, so a trainer can see a progression actually happening and trust the number behind it, not guess at either.
You Get The Programme Builder Inside PT Manager The Day You Pass A Course

Your Client Can Pay Into Your Own Stripe Account

Checking A Claim And Checking A Movement Use The Same Skill, And PT Manager Shows Both

Checking a source and building the session round it are the same job, and PT Manager is where that reasoning lives
Checking a client's source and going deeper with FASTER Sports Scientist end in one place: PT Manager's programme builder, where reasoning becomes the session.
Reading a joint properly and building a programme that survives Hyrox fatigue use the same eyes. PT Manager is where both live
Reading a joint's real range and checking a borrowed plan against research are the same watching-and-reasoning skill. PT Manager is built to back it.
Pregnant, postnatal or moving through menopause, a client's body changes faster than any form. PT Manager reads what's true about her today
A changing body, pregnant, postnatal or perimenopausal, isn't the body on an intake form from months ago. PT Manager reads what's true this session.
Today's session and the whole season are the same question, answered at two different distances
Adapting one session and shaping a whole season start from the same read. PT Manager's Build screen moves from a single session to a full season, one tool.
The nod and the no-show are the same client talking two different ways
The client who says a cue makes sense and the one who goes quiet on Tuesdays are telling you the same thing. The Live Analyser and session history catch both.
What the guard and the soreness have in common: neither one gets said out loud
A client protecting a remembered pain doesn't announce it. Both problems live in the gap between sessions, and PT Manager's session history closes that gap.

Booking app, coaching app, assessment, analysis, programming, business management. PT Manager is all of it, free for FASTER students, no cut of your money.
Adding load only helps if you can see what it's doing to that exact joint, live. Guessing at either one wastes the session

A slow lowering phase and a guarded client are two different problems. The PT Manager reads both from the same camera
Tempo control and a fearful client's guarding both live in a fraction of a second most eyes miss. The Live Analyser tracks either, live, from one camera.
A squat's depth and a hip's new range are two different arguments. The PT Manager settles both from the same camera
Squat depth and mobility both turn into arguments about who has it. The Live Analyser reads the actual joint angle for both, live, from one camera in the room.
The one camera feed that catches a brace slipping and a shin angle landing
A trunk holding under load and a shin angle at ground contact are different things to see, live. The Live Analyser tracks both, joint by joint, on one feed.
