How Gridlines works
Short, practical guides to the common workflows, organized by where they happen — the builder, the mobile app, and the web dashboard. If you can't find what you need, email support.
Get started
Creating your accountSign up, verify your email, and name your organization — free, no card required.Accounts & workspacesOne account, one email — how organizations, roles, and selling fit under a single login.Buying a programFrom a coach's link through checkout to training in the app — one-time purchases, subscriptions, and where your purchase lives.Athlete quickstartFrom a coach's invite or a bought program to your first logged session: account, app, intake, and the Start button.Coach quickstartFrom nothing to a program buyers can pay for: sign up, write it in the builder, set up selling, price it, publish, share the link.Organization quickstartName your organization, start the 14-day trial, invite staff and athletes, and get a team training.
Training
Getting set upFirst run in the Gridlines app: sign in, answer the intake questions, enter your maxes, and set your training days.Training a programWhere athletes train: finding your program in the app, running sessions, and logging your work.Logging a workoutThe core loop: start a session from Today, log sets on the keypad, use the rest timer and tools, and save it to your log.Managing your planThe Plan tab: start or pause a program, edit training days, handle missed sessions, and read the programming ahead.Maxes and percentagesHow percent-based prescriptions resolve to real loads, the difference between a 1RM and a working max, and when to update them.Finding and buying programsBuy a program on the web from a program link or a coach's storefront, and see how billing and cancelling work.Tracking your progressThe Activity tab: your session ledger, editing past sessions, and the widgets that chart volume, consistency, and exercise trends.CommunityYour coach's community in the app: spaces, posting, polls, attaching sessions, and keeping the feed a good place to train.Messaging your coachThe Messages inbox: how coach conversations start, replying, attaching session receipts, and reporting a conversation.
Building
Opening the builderWhere programs are written: the builder in your browser, or the native desktop app.Finding your way aroundWorkspaces, the sidebar, the editor's menus, the day dock, and the other furniture of the builder.Building your first programWeeks, days, and sessions — how a program is structured and how to write one fast.The program editorThe full structural toolkit: weeks, blocks, days, sessions, groups, and how to move all of it around.Writing schemesThe helper bar's scheme language — type prescriptions the way you'd say them, and let the grid fill itself.Your exercise libraryExercises and tags: scopes, creating your own movements, forking system entries, and video demos.ProtocolsReusable set-and-rep schemes you write once and keep in your organization's library.Templates and subscriptionsThe two program types — fixed-length plans versus live rolling plans — and how each one behaves in the editor.The AI assistantThe builder's right-dock AI panel: chat about the open program, with every proposed edit held for your approval.Connect your AI assistantConnect Gridlines to Claude or another MCP-compatible assistant, then review athletes and build programs through conversation.
Coaching
Selling
