How to start?

Getting started with the Good Coach App​

Whether you are a coach looking to improve the impact of your work with athletes, create better workout plans and have access to more athlete training data, or an athlete looking to improve performance, setting up your Good Coach App account is simple.

Both coaches and athletes can register via the mobile or browser app. An account must be created to access and use the Good Coach App features.

For Coaches​

  1. Register via the browser application to access the most functionality.
  2. Start by adding athletes to your athlete list and begin planning your training sessions.
  3. Once an athlete has been added to the list, the athlete will receive an email with an activation link. You can also provide them with a special QR code. More on adding athletes
  4. You can also provide the athlete with your unique invitation link (or QR code), which will allow them to register and quickly connect with you.
  5. Before starting to create new workout plans, define the activity types.

For Athletes​

For athletes, there are the following ways to set up an account:

Invitation from the coach by email​

If you receive an email invitation to work with a coach, find the invitation link in that email. Click on this link, and it will take you to our browser application, where you will be guided through the process of connecting with a coach. You won't even notice when your account is ready to proceed. More on coach invitations

If you receive a QR code from your coach, you can scan it with your phone. Most phones recognize QR codes and can convert them into links that lead to the invitation page. If you simply received a unique link, click it on your computer or phone to go to the invitation page. You'll see all the invitation details on that page.

Self-registration​

You can also register yourself via the browser app or mobile app.

Remember

In the self-registration option without the use of a link, you will not be immediately connected to a coach.

However, it will still be possible for the coach to invite you later to train together by means of an invitation in an email or by passing on a special link.

If you create an account yourself, the coach can add you to their list of athletes within seven days using your email address without requiring your additional acceptance. You will be notified about this.

After this period, you will need to accept an invitation from the coach, which you will receive via email, in the form of a QR code, or a unique link.

Important

The invitation notification will also appear in the header of the browser application, and you can accept the invitation from your profile.
