CoachingPortal

CoachingPortal is an online coaching platform that unifies training programming, nutrition planning, client check-ins, and communication into a single branded system for fitness and nutrition professionals.

What is CoachingPortal?

CoachingPortal is an all-in-one platform designed to reduce administrative overhead for coaches by automating training progression, meal planning, and client accountability. It takes as input coach-created training programs and meal plans, and client-submitted workout logs, meal entries, and check-in responses. It outputs auto-adjusted training loads (via RIR-based periodization), compliance analytics, and AI-generated check-in summaries. The platform runs on web, iOS, and Android, and is built on peer-reviewed exercise science and ISSN nutritional guidelines.

Key Features

• Auto-periodization — Build periodized training blocks; clients log Reps in Reserve (RIR); the system automatically adjusts loads for the next session and schedules deload weeks based on fatigue patterns.
• Meal plan builder — Access to 1M+ foods and 17,000+ recipes from the FatSecret database; build weekly meal plans with barcode scanning, automatic macro calculations, and grocery list generation.
• White-label branding — Custom subdomain (yourname.coachingportal.io), logo, and colors included on every plan, including the free tier.
• CoachGPT AI — Reads weekly check-ins and produces summaries of wins, concerns, and suggested changes; food AI suggests meal swaps when macros are off target.
• Compliance analytics — Weekly compliance scores from check-ins, meal logs, and workouts; trend charts over 4, 8, and 12 weeks for body weight, macro adherence, and habit streaks.
• Mobile apps — iOS and Android apps with rest timers, tap-to-log meals, and under 2-minute check-ins; steps sync from Apple Health and Health Connect.
• RIR-based autoregulation — Validated by Zourdos et al. (2016) for accurate daily load adjustment based on proximity to failure.

Who is it for?

• Personal trainers who want to deliver periodized training with automatic load progression and deload scheduling.
• Nutrition coaches who need a native meal plan builder with extensive food database and macro tracking.
• Hybrid coaches who manage both training and nutrition, seeking a unified client experience with integrated check-ins and compliance analytics.
• Self-coaching athletes who want to use the platform for their own training and nutrition tracking.

FAQ

Is CoachingPortal free?

Yes, there is a permanent free plan for up to 5 clients with all features included, no credit card required. Paid plans start at $19.99/month for additional clients.

What is auto-periodization?

It automatically adjusts training loads based on the client’s logged Reps in Reserve (RIR). When performance drops across multiple sessions, the system schedules a deload week — all without manual coach intervention.

Can I use CoachingPortal for nutrition only?

Yes. The meal plan builder, macro tracking, barcode scanner, and check-in tools work independently of the training side. Many nutrition coaches use the platform without assigning any training programs.

Does it include white-label branding?

Yes, on every plan including free. You get a custom subdomain, your logo, and your brand colors throughout the client experience — invite emails, workouts, meal plans, and the mobile app.

What happens to my clients’ data if I cancel?

Your account downgrades to the free tier (up to 5 active clients). No data is deleted; you can re-activate a paid plan at any time to restore full access.
