How does it work?

Trainers can use Total PT Fitness to train clients online and in person. Trainers can provide fitness tests and track those results. Exercise and fitness programs can be created by trainers and provided to clients either in printed form or as an online link with video. Nutrition programs can also be provided to clients. All clients have access to a personalized website/portal which is branded with the trainer company name and information. This client website allows the client to access all their tests, test results, meal plans and exercise programs.
