How to get here
In the left menu, find Programmes and click Templates.
Click the + New programme template button in the upper right corner.
You are now on the New programme template screen.
Tip: You can also land on this screen with a pre-filled form by copying an existing template. In that case the URL includes ?id=123 and the system loads the existing template's data as a starting point — but it is saved as a completely new template.
Step-by-step guide
Fill in the details
These fields describe the template itself: Name: Required — the name of the programme template, e.g. "Strength" or "CrossFit Basics". This is how you find it in lists later. Path: Required — a file-path-like label used to organise your templates into folders, e.g. "CrossFit/April". Think of it as putting the template into a virtual filing cabinet. External programming track: Not required — only visible if your chain has the Programme access key setting enabled. Enter the external track identifier if you are syncing programming from an external source. Available in centres: Not required — only visible if your chain has more than one centre location. Select which centres should have access to this template. Defaults to your currently selected centre.
Build your first programme
When the page loads, one empty programme is already created for you. Each programme is a block containing workouts and extra notes: Coach's notes: Free-text field for internal notes that trainers can read. Equipment: Specify the equipment needed for this programme. External references: Links or references to external resources. Timeline: Describe the intended timeline or schedule for the programme.
Configure a workout
For each workout inside a programme you can fill in: Title: Required — a short name for the workout, e.g. "Workout #1" or "AM Session". Workout type: Not required — select a type from the dropdown, e.g. "AMRAP", "EMOM" or "For Time". Time cap: Not required — specify a time limit for the workout. Text / Description: Not required — free-text description of the workout for instructions or scaling options.
Add exercises to a workout
Inside a workout, use the exercise builder to add exercises. For each exercise: Exercise name: Required — the name or type of the exercise, e.g. "Back Squat" or "Pull-ups". Number of sets: Not required — how many sets, e.g. "5". Count (reps): Not required — how many reps per set, e.g. "10". Unit: Not required — the unit of measurement, e.g. "reps", "calories" or "metres". Men's weight: Not required — prescribed weight for men, e.g. "80". Women's weight: Not required — prescribed weight for women, e.g. "55". Percentage: Not required — percentage of a reference weight, e.g. "75" for 75%. Relation to: Not required — what the percentage is relative to, e.g. "1RM".
Add more workouts to a programme
Inside a programme block, click the button to add another workout. A new section appears, automatically named with the next number.
Add more programmes (optional)
Below the existing programme blocks, click the Add new programme button. A new empty programme block appears with one default workout. You can add as many programmes as you need. To remove a programme, click the remove button on that programme block — you must always have at least one.
Save
Click the Create button in the bottom right of the form. The system validates your input, sends the template data to the server and redirects you back to the programme template list. You will see a green "Create successful!" notification. Note: If you arrived by copying an existing template via ?id=, a completely new template is still created — the original is not overwritten.
