Set up your coaching profile

Every field is optional, and you can change any of them later. Max reads the saved profile with every message you send, and New program builds from it.

Open your coaching profile

Open Home›Profile›Coach profile. It opens at Goals and experience.

You can also open it from these places:

• In a chat with Max: tap the sliders icon next to the plus icon. If your profile is empty, the chat shows a Set up coach profile card; tap Set up profile.
• On the Training screen: tap the sliders icon, or tap Set weekly goal on the Weekly goal card.
• On New program: tap Set up coach profile, or Your coach profile once you have one.

Save your profile

Tap Save at the top of the screen. Coach profile saved appears and the screen closes. Leaving without saving discards your changes.
