We’ve recently refreshed FITR’s layout and navigation. This is a meaningful evolution of the platform - designed to help you move faster, stay organised as you grow, and spend more time coaching instead of managing tools.
If things feel a little different at first, that’s completely normal. This guide will walk you through what’s changed, why we made the update, and how to get the most out of the new experience.
Why we made this change
As FITR has grown, so has the number of tools available to support serious coaching businesses. The old layout simply wasn’t built to scale with you.
The new navigation is designed to be:
Faster - fewer clicks to get where you need to go
Clearer - everything has a defined home
Built for growth - new features can be added without clutter
More familiar - following patterns you’ll recognise from modern tools
This change sets FITR up for what’s next and makes day to day coaching simpler.
Understanding the new navigation
The biggest change you’ll notice is the left hand sidebar. This is now your control centre.
Programming
This section houses everything related to building and managing training.
Programs - Create and manage all program types (Group Rolling, Session 1 Day 1, Fixed Length, 1-2-1)
Exercises - Your exercise library
Leaderboards -Rankings, performance tracking, and competition
Challenges - Time bound or goal driven challenges
Templates - Reusable program structures
Resources - Educational or downloadable content
Clients - All client management in one place
Why this works better: Programming is now grouped logically, instead of being spread across the product.
Marketing & Growth
Everything related to monetisation and integrations now lives together.
Storefront - Manage and access your storefront quickly
Zapier - Control your integrations and automations
Customisation - Personalise colours and branding (free to use)
Result: Easier access to the tools that help you grow your business.
Communication & Updates
No more jumping between hidden menus.
Inbox – All client messages, DMs, and group chats in one central place
Feed – Notifications, updates, and important activity
FITR Academy (New)
This is a big one.
FITR Academy is your learning hub - built to help you get the most out of the platform.
Here you’ll find:

Direct access to the Help Centre
We’ll be adding new and refreshed content regularly, so this area will continue to grow with you.
Managing your plan & account
At the bottom of the sidebar, you’ll see your account controls.
Trial or Band indicator - Shows where you are in your trial or client band
Upgrade Plan - Quickly manage upgrades or downgrades
Profile & Settings - Click your name to access:

FITR, reimagined, is about building a platform that grows with serious coaches - not one you outgrow.
