Coach Mode overview — Docs

Set your account up as a coach, and you can put any athlete on your roster in front of your camera. You pick who is recording, and every set, jump or run lands in that athlete’s history.

Turn on Coach Mode

In Metric Lift:

Open the Account tab.
Tap Become a coach, then confirm. Becoming a coach is free.
Switch on Coach Mode in the same section.

To record your own training again, switch Coach Mode off.

In Metric Jump and Metric Sprint, Coach Mode turns on by itself when your account is a coach on Ultra Coach. Your roster then appears under Team in the app menu.

Record your athletes

Metric Jump — pick the athlete in the switcher before each test. If a test lands on the wrong athlete, open the menu on its summary and tap Change athlete.
Metric Sprint — pick the athlete in the switcher before you start. In repeat runs, it also shows between runs. Pick Coach (self) to record your own run. See Repeat runs.

Let athletes record on their own devices

Invite an athlete, and they can record on their own phone as well as on yours. Their data syncs to your roster either way. See Managing your athlete roster.

In Metric Lift, Account → My team → Athlete visibility lets your athletes see each other’s training history. On Ultra Coach, they also compete on the leaderboard.

To get your athletes’ data out of Metric Lift, open History, tap ⋯, then Export data. Pick athletes under Included athletes. On Free, the export covers the last 7 days.
