One fitness app that has to feel personal to the client and efficient to the trainer, designed and developed in nine weeks.
The brief
Remote training removes the trainer’s eyes.
NextRep is a mobile app that connects gym trainers with their clients: structured programmes, monitored progress and daily fitness activity in one place.
In-person training works because the trainer can see you. Remote training takes that away, and everything the trainer relied on (form, effort, honesty about the week) becomes self-reported. The product had to rebuild that trust through the app.
It also had to serve two people at once. The client wants one screen and today’s workout. The trainer wants twelve screens: a roster, follow-ups and which plans end this week.
What we designed and developed
Separate the roles, share the system.
Client and trainer see different apps built from the same components. The client gets today’s workout and progress they can actually see. The trainer gets a multi-client dashboard with active logs, upcoming follow-ups, plans ending soon and feedback per client.
Workout videos, body measurements and progress photos give trainers something concrete to check and correct against. Logging is designed for the moment it happens: between sets, one-handed, out of breath.
What shipped
Concept to launch in nine weeks.
NextRep went from concept to launch in nine weeks with a two-person team, and both audiences are served by one shared design system rather than one side getting the leftovers.
