Getting started

Find your way around the app

Understand the web sidebar, mobile More tab, Training cards, and the two different Exercises menus.

The web and installed apps share the same underlying workspace. Navigation is arranged differently to fit the screen, and some entries appear only when your role and organization allow them.

On the web

AreaWhat you will find
GeneralTraining, Calendar, History, and Chats when available.

Leaderboards is a separate navigation item, shown in Coach Mode. Intelligence appears when your role and organization include the AI assistant.

The web app also provides Labs for analysis: with Coach Mode on, Owners and Coaches find Profiles, Reports, Insights, Dashboards, and Scoresheet in the sidebar where access permits. Start with Labs analytics to choose the right view.

On mobile and tablet

Use the main tabs (Programs, History, and Training) for day-to-day training and results. Open More (the three-dot tab at the bottom right) for options such as Templates (under Builder), Settings, Account, and Help. Coach Mode is also available on More when your account is eligible.

The More tab of the Vitruve phone app with the account card, the Coach Mode switch, and the More tab numbered one to three.
Phone app, More tab for an organization owner: (1) your Account card, (2) the Coach Mode switch, (3) the More tab itself. Scroll down for Templates, Management, Settings, and Help.

On a larger tablet, the layout can look closer to the web interface. Follow the feature label in the guide rather than looking for a desktop sidebar on a phone.

Two menus named Exercises

MenuWhat it containsUse it when…
Management → ExercisesThe movement library: names, instructions, favorites, custom movements, and exercise settings.You want to find or create a movement.
Builder → Templates → ExercisesSaved prescriptions: a movement together with its set parameters and target values.You want to reuse how you prescribe an exercise.

Changing a prescription’s load is different from editing the movement’s library entry.

Training is a collection of cards

Open Training and select the card matching the task:

  • Workout: a complete session, including different kinds of exercise.
  • VBT: focused velocity-based lifting.
  • Jump, Sprint, or Reaction: a focused workout with its own recorded sets and events.
  • Quick Tracking: an immediate live readout without a saved workout.
  • Realtime Monitor: a continuous metric stream from a compatible encoder.
  • Coach Live: active-athlete monitoring in Coach Mode.
  • Equations, Wellness Test, or Measurements: specific measurement tasks.

The Training header contains Calendar, Bluetooth, and the cog for training settings. A cloud button appears when there are Pending workouts to upload or resolve.

The web Training screen with its Workout, VBT, Sprint, Jump, Reaction, Tracking, and Measurements cards, and the Calendar, Bluetooth, and settings buttons numbered one to three.
Web app, Training with Coach Mode off: the cards, and in the header (1) Calendar, (2) Bluetooth, (3) the training settings cog. Coach Live appears under Monitoring in Coach Mode.

Where are jump, sprint, and reaction workouts saved?

Record them from Training, finish their workout, and review the completed record in History. For a single mixed workout, include the modalities under the general Workout flow. Use Training and workouts for the complete guide.

If a navigation item is missing

Check the selected organization, your role, its plan, and Coach Mode. Coaches should also check which athletes the Owner assigned to them. Follow A feature or athlete is missing in that order.
