Supplement plans
Write a client's supplement stack with doses, timings and with-food notes, and see them tick each one off as a daily task.
How to build a supplement plan for a client or save one as a template in TrainerStack, link a supplement to a food so it counts in the diary, switch on the "Take supplements" daily task, and read adherence.
A supplement plan is a short list the client works down each day: what to take, how much, when, and whether with food. The client ticks each dose in their app, and if Take supplements is switched on in their daily tasks it completes itself once everything due that day is ticked.
Build a plan for a client
- Open the client, choose Nutrition, and under Plans scroll to Supplement plan. Click New plan, or pick Start from a template… to copy one of your templates.
- Give the plan a name and, if you like, a note the client sees under it.
- For each supplement enter the name, Dose and Unit, choose With food (either, with food, or empty stomach), tick the timings under When (morning, pre- or post-workout, with a meal, evening, before bed) and the Days. Leaving every day selected means daily.
- Link a food when the supplement has calories worth counting, such as a protein powder. The client then gets a Diary button on that dose that logs the right amount to a meal.
- Click Save plan. The client is notified, and the plan shows on their Nutrition tab under Daily intake.
A client has one plan at a time: saving again edits it, and assigning a template replaces it. Removing a supplement from the plan removes its tick history too.
Switch on the daily task
Under the client's Tasks tab, tick the days for Take supplements and save. The task appears in their daily list; tapping it opens the same checklist. The day counts toward their streak only when every dose due has been ticked, and unticking a dose takes the completion back.
Templates
Nutrition › Supplement Templates holds stacks you give out often. New template builds one the same way; Assign to client copies it onto a client as their own plan, which you can then adjust for them without touching the template.
What you should see
- On the client's Nutrition tab, under the plan in Plans, Last 14 days shows the share of doses taken and a strip of days: green complete, amber partial, grey nothing ticked.
- In the client app, the Supplements card on the diary lists the day's doses grouped by timing, with the dose and any with-food note under each.
If it is not working
- The client cannot see the plan. They need the current app update; pull to refresh the Nutrition tab.
- The task never completes. Every dose due that day has to be ticked, including evening ones. Check the item's Days if it should not be due that day.
- A dose is missing from today's list. Its Days do not include today, or the item has no timing ticked.
