Editing athlete profiles
Update an athlete's name, picture, gender, date of birth and bodyweight from the app or the web dashboard.
UPDATED
Weigh your athletes, then update their bodyweight on their profile before the next session. Every relative score on the leaderboard and every jump force reading uses that number.
Open a profile
- Metric Lift — open Account → My team → Athlete roster and tap the athlete. Change the fields, then tap Save.
- Metric Jump and Metric Sprint — open Team in the menu and tap the athlete. There you edit the picture, bodyweight and height. Metric Sprint also edits the name.
- Web dashboard — open Roster, open the athlete, then click Edit.
An athlete who signs in on their own phone can edit the same fields under Account → Training profile. The most recent edit wins, whoever makes it.
Fields
- First name and last name — how the athlete shows on your roster, leaderboard and exports.
- Profile picture — shows on the roster and the leaderboard.
- Gender — drives the gender filter on the Metric Lift leaderboard.
- Date of birth — edit it in Metric Lift. On the web, you set it when you add the athlete.
- Bodyweight — drives relative weight and relative power in Metric Lift, and jump force and power in Metric Jump.
The web dashboard also stores height and squads. Squads filter the web leaderboard.
Keep bodyweight current
Metric works out relative weight and relative power from the bodyweight on the profile when the athlete recorded the set. A new bodyweight changes the scores from then on, not the sets already recorded.
When it goes wrong
- A set shows no relative score. The profile bodyweight was blank when the athlete recorded it. Add the bodyweight now, and every later set gets a relative score.
- Relative scores look off. The profile weight is out of date. Weigh the athlete and update it.
- Metric Jump will not start a test. In Coach Mode, add the athlete’s height and bodyweight.
- A past jump used the wrong bodyweight. Open its summary menu and tap Edit weight. Metric Jump rescales impulse and power.
