Lesson 5 of 6Guide3 min read

Controlling what a client can log

Two switches decide whether a client can log their own nutrition and their own weight. Measurements are never theirs to log. What each switch changes on their side.

Topics: Clients

  1. Nutrition logging
  2. Weight logging
  3. Progress photos
  4. Health data
  5. Measurements are always yours
  6. What this looks like in Nutrition
  7. If a change will not save

Open a client, open their menu and tap 'Manage' followed by their name. The Preferences section there has four switches that change what your client can do in their own app, so it is worth knowing exactly what each does before you touch it. The same section also holds the payment reminder, which Payment reminders and session type covers.

Nutrition logging

Workout Titan Coaching describes this as enabling detailed meal and calorie tracking. On, and your client can log food and you can see it. Off, and they cannot. Your view of their nutrition reads "Nutrition logging turned off for this client", and the client is told they cannot log nutritional intake.

Leave it off for clients you train but do not advise on food. Turning it on for someone who will not use it just puts an empty diary in front of them.

Weight logging

Described as allowing the client to log weight and share progress. Off, and the weight screen in their app is visible but disabled, telling them weight logging is managed by their coach.

This one deserves thought rather than a default. Daily weighing is unhelpful for some people and actively harmful for a few, and taking the scale out of a client's hands is a legitimate coaching decision. It is also one they will notice, so tell them you have done it and why. The message on their side points them straight back at you to ask.

You can still log weight for them from their profile while the switch is off.

Progress photos

On by default. It allows the client to add progress photos and share them with you. Off, the client can't add new photos and the shortcut disappears from their Home screen. Photos already there are kept, and you can always add photos yourself. Progress photos for coaches covers the rest.

Health data

On by default. It shows the steps your client syncs from Apple Health or Health Connect in their own app. Off, their steps are hidden from them, but their phone keeps syncing and you can still see them. It can suit a client who finds a daily count unhelpful. Steps for coaches covers the rest.

When one of these is off, the matching screen on your side says so and has an Enable button that brings you straight back here.

Measurements are always yours

There is no switch for this one. Clients can never log their own body measurements, and the measurements screen states that plainly. Chest, waist, hips, arms, thighs: all of it is recorded by you.

That is a reasonable design decision rather than an oversight. Self-measured circumferences are inconsistent. Tape tension, placement and posture move the number more than the body does, so a series taken by one person is worth far more than a series taken by whoever happened to have the tape.

What this looks like in Nutrition

If your client also uses Workout Titan Nutrition, these preferences reach across. With nutrition sharing on there, their calorie and macro goals show as managed by you and cannot be edited on their side, and weight logging follows the switch above.

One thing worth knowing: sharing is the client's switch, not yours. If they turn nutrition sharing off in their own Manage account, you stop seeing new logs and they take their goals back. Nothing they logged while disconnected is ever shared retroactively.

If a change will not save

You will see an error rather than a silent failure, and nothing is half-applied. Check your connection and try again.
