capabilities.

Who
will use the StrengthEngine.com Advanced Trainer Pro?
The ATP
is designed for use by certified trainers, fitness professionals
and their clients. It is not designed to take the place of
one-on-one training sessions. Rather, it allows trainers to
leverage their time and knowledge by providing structured
programming to the other 97% of gym members that will never
buy one-on-one personal training.

Why
is the ATP unique?
The ATP
is the most advanced online tool for fitness professionals
ever developed. Never before has an online tool been available
to trainers that allows total individualization and complete
flexibility.
ATP in
no way limits the services you can provide to their clients.
This tool gives you the ability to provide many more clients
with personal training. The StrengthEngine.com Advanced Trainer Pro defines a new
class and level of customization for the fitness profession.

How
do Fitness Professionals make money with the StrengthEngine Trainer
Pro?
Fitness
professionals use the ATP for free. There are no monthly subscription
or maintenance fees. You make money when you sell a program
to a client.
It works
like this:
You, the fitness professional, sell a 12-week program for
a fee that reflects the level of service the client will receive.
We suggest $120 for 12 weeks, assuming a half hour fitness
assessment in the gym and online interaction thereafter.
You then
enter the client's credit card info into the secure StrengthEngine
Trainer Pro credit card processing area. StrengthEngine captures the
transaction using our merchant account and online banking
service. StrengthEngine retains a program access fee of $30 plus 2%
of the total for processing charges.
At the
end of the month, you receive a check for the balance of $87.60,
which is the total charge of $120.00 less the $30 access fee
and the 2% processing fee.
If you
sell 10 programs to new clients in a month, you would receive
a check for $876. And that doesn't include clients who sign
up again for a new program.

Can
I customize the program?
Having
total flexibility and the ability to customize were the two
most important criteria in the development of the ATP.
As owners
of personal training centers and veterans in the fitness industry,
the developers of the StrengthEngine.com Advanced Trainer Pro clearly understood
the necessity of giving trainers the ability to customize
everything from exercises, sets, reps and weights to cardio
duration, and weekly difficulty mapping.
Upon completion
of the client sign up and assessment, you can choose from
over 150 "Quick Start" program templates and input the appropriate
data to meet that client's goals and physical capabilities.

How
does my client access his/her program?
Clients
can access their program through our secure client interface
site called theclientpro.com.
Once logged
in, clients can see your bio, messages from you, their monthly
workout calendar and their daily workout.
Linked
to each exercise on their program is a brief video that loads
quickly to demonstrate proper form and technique. The client
then prints the daily program to take to the gym.
When they
return they can e-mail you with questions or requests for
weight and/or exercise changes. Your clients will also have
access to a unique feedback and tracking system so that you
can view their post-workout feedback at any time.

How
much client interaction will I have using the StrengthEngine Trainer
Pro?
We encourage
you to have an initial in-person contact with their client
before putting them on the ATP. The most important element
of this contact is conducting the assessment to get accurate
information for program design.
After
this initial phase, we recommend that you e-mail your clients
at least once a week for feedback on their program, coaching
and to make adjustments. However, you can have as much communication
as you like with your clients, which is why we do not regulate
the fee charged. Some clients may require more interaction
and a higher corresponding price point.
