Athlete Check-Ins

Hear what the data can’t tell you.

Your Garmin tells you power and pace. It doesn’t tell you an athlete slept four hours or felt flat from minute one. Athlete Check-Ins give you the signal that matters most — before an athlete goes quiet.

How it works

Four steps from silence to signal.

1

Configure your cadence

Turn on Training Logs per team. Pick Weekly or Monthly, choose a reminder day, and write the prompts you want to ask. Smart defaults preloaded by sport.

2

Athletes tell you what happened

Your athletes log Overall Feel plus your prompts each period. They can also drop a note on any workout — about this session, right there.

3

Signal surfaces across your day

Unread notes show badges on workout rows. Training Logs live at the top of the dashboard. You see what needs attention without going looking.

4

You react — they keep showing up

Tap Seen, reply inline, or flag a note to revisit. Athletes see their signal received, so they keep writing. Silence breaks; the conversation sticks.

Three signals, one feed

Different windows into the same athlete

Workout-level, period-level, and reaction-level. Together, they give you a story the numbers can’t.

Session-level

Workout Notes

Athletes drop a note on a specific workout — what felt off, what went right, why they cut intervals short. Team-visible or coach-only, their call. You reply, react, or delete inline.

Periodic

Training Logs

Structured check-in on your cadence. Overall Feel 1–10 plus custom prompts (Rating, Short, Long) every Week or Month. Push reminder on log day so you never chase submissions.

Closing the loop

Coach Reactions

Seen, thumbs-up, or flag a note to follow up. Athletes see their signal received, so they keep sharing. Unread badges make sure nothing slips past. Delete the noise; keep the signal.

Configurable Training Logs

Your team, your questions.

Every team is different. A collegiate cross-country program asks different questions than a masters triathlon squad. Training Logs let you write the prompts that matter, in the format that fits.

Ratings for quick pulse checks. Short answers for specifics. Long answers for weekly reflection. Reorder, rename, add more — it’s your check-in. Push reminders fire on your cadence, on the day you pick.

Who sees what

Visibility is designed around trust. Coaches always see everything — that’s the job. Between athletes, sharing is opt-in per note.

Sensitive messages default to the safer path. An athlete can say something privately without accidentally broadcasting it to the team.

Coach

Sees all notes, all logs, always. No filter, no opt-in required.

Athlete

Picks Team-visible or Coach-only per note. Sees teammates’ team-visible notes on shared workouts.

Default: the safer path

Sensitive notes default to coach-only. Nothing leaks by accident.

Where it matters most

Three scenarios where the gap between “had the data” and “heard the athlete” is the difference.

Catch the ghost before week 3

An athlete stops completing workouts. Before: you notice three weeks later, when they’re already done. With check-ins: their missed Monday log is flagged Monday afternoon. You reach out Tuesday. You keep them.

The bad-sleep week, caught early

Subjective signal precedes the objective drop. An athlete logs “feel 4/10, kid’s sick, up all night.” You dial Tuesday’s intervals down before HRV takes the hit. That’s coaching with context.

Coach over text, not in the app

You’re a part-time coach with a day job. Immediate email for flagged notes, daily digest for the rest. Every reply arrives as a push on your athlete’s phone. You coach from anywhere without being chained to the app.
