Program Audit Checklist

Thirteen checks to run before a program reaches a client. Most programming errors are visible before anyone trains.

Calorie / Energy Needs Estimator

Estimate resting metabolic rate and total daily energy expenditure from two named published equations, then present a conservative goal calorie range as a starting point to be corrected by measured bodyweight trend.

Training Load & Tonnage Calculator

Quantify a training session two ways — external load as tonnage (sets × reps × load) and internal load as session-RPE load (sRPE × duration) — then project weekly totals and compute week-over-week tonnage change.

Relative Strength Calculator

Express strength as a multiple of bodyweight for one lift — and optionally across several of the same lifter's lifts — with correct lb/kg conversion, built for tracking the same person over time.

Cancellation Impact Calculator

Price what cancellations cost a training business — gross, and net of rebooked make-ups and collected late-cancel fees — weekly, monthly, and annually; show what one chronic canceller costs per year; and compare annual losses with vs. without the coach's own late-cancel policy terms.

Retention & Attrition Calculator

Convert roster movement (starting clients, clients lost, clients added, period length) into churn rate, retention rate, implied client lifespan, a 12-month roster projection, and the dollar cost of attrition — with an A/B scenario quantifying what a churn reduction is worth.

Session Density Calculator

Quantify how much work a session packs into its time — sets, reps, and tonnage per hour plus average time per set — and compare two sessions (A vs B) to evaluate whether density genuinely changed.

Consultation Conversion Calculator

Measure consultation-to-client conversion (plus lead-to-consult and full-funnel rates when lead data exists), price what one consultation — and one no-showed slot — is worth, and compute what a conversion improvement would be worth in revenue, all from the coach's own numbers.

Exercise Regression / Progression Selector

Weight Change Rate Calculator

Program Progression Decision Tool

Guided decision support: six structured questions about the client's last 1–3 weeks produce one doctrine-based next move — progress load, progress volume, hold (consolidate), reduce (deload/regress), or fix the real constraint first — with the full reasoning trail shown.

Client Lifetime Value Calculator
