### "The best online training software!"

June 6, 2021

5.0

PT Distinction has saved me enormous amounts of time when it comes to programming workouts for my online clients. I can programme months in advance very quickly. This is a huge benefit to me.

Pros

The workout builder is by far the best and easiest to use of all the softwares I have tried. The app is so simple to use and provides everything I need for my online coaching business.

Cons

No- I love it all! However, the only thing I would suggest is perhaps creating a meal plan within the app itself.

Alternatives considered

Reason for choosing PT Distinction

I chose PT Distinction over alternative competitors for a number of reasons: 1) The workout builder is by far the easiest to use out of them all! 2) There is no additional fee to build/customise the app. 3) The highly efficient support team that respond to queries very swiftly.

The workout builder on My PT Hub is very difficult to use in comparison. They also charge you to build/customise the app. PT Distinction include this in the price of subscription!

### "Exceptional Fitness Platform"

December 9, 2025

5.0

My experience has been good with PT Distinction. I have also utilized Trainerize. I do prefer PTD for it's features. Each time I have reached out to Customer Service/Support, I have received a response back within 24 business hours. This is very much appreciated.

Pros

PT Distinction is user friendly from both a trainer & client perspective. As a trainer, it is nice to be able to manage a client's strength & cardio workouts, education, & nutrition in one place. I like the in-app messaging. It allows the opportunity for clients & trainers to build a stronger relationship, the trainers to be able to support their clients, & for the clients to be able to reach out if there are any concerns within their program. All of the messages are maintained under that client's name, which is very helpful if you need to review them later. The video feature is nice for a client to use if they are struggling with form or just how to perform a particular exercise. The trainer can review the video & respond back quickly. The cost of PT Distinction is reasonable and I appreciate being able to personalize my fitness app.

Cons

Currently, the Calorie Counter feature is lacking a barcode scanner. My understanding is that this will be rectified soon. I also wish it integrated with the MyNetDiary app, which is a far better macro tracking app than MyFitnessPal. I do wish the platform allowed for more integrations with 'smart devices' like Garmin, and Renpho and/or Hume products.

### "Outdated"

September 4, 2023

2.0

Only have it for the ease of use for clients - would have switched back to Trainerize if Trainerize worked similar to PT Distinction in how they view their workouts.Probably should have switched back. Trainerize is much easier to use, setup programs, and change things on the fly with.

Pros

Ease of use for clients, newer updates on the mobile app are nicer.

Cons

Creating programs and any kind of scheduling on the calendar is not user friendly.They do not like feedback.Simple things that would make life easier on the coach like drag and drop to move workouts around a monthly calendar and add tracking items/ habits to a monthly calendar or atleast having the calendar in the same view as when you're adding workouts, habits, tracking etc to the clients calendar would make life oh so much easier.As it is you have to constantly check go back or refresh the calendar on a separate tab to double check and reference what you're doing.This has made me make many mistake in scheduling for clients.

Hi Josh, I'm pleased your clients are enjoying the app and find it easy to use. Have you seen our latest updates? Among other things, these include a month view and year view of the calendar. Any item can be dragged and dropped from one day to another. Was there anything else you found difficult?

### "New Trainer"

June 16, 2025

5.0

As a new personal trainer I’ve looked at many apps. PT Distinction checks more of the view for what I need and want than any of the others.

Pros

There are so many ways to customize the exercises and workouts. Email support has been very helpful.

Cons

No barcode scanner or way for client to see their macro goals within the tracker. This is not ideal for running training.

Pros

### "Great Software for PT's"

May 10, 2021

4.0

I switched to PT distinction from another software and it was a much quicker way of creating programs and assigning them to clients. I am still a beginner in the profession but believe this software will help tremendously in my new PT business and have recommended it to others as well.

Pros

Onboarding process is super quick Using groups for automation is a game changer Exercise library is extensive Community and support is amazing Customising the app with your branding creates another level of professionalism PT distinction university helps a lot

Cons

Takes a while to navigate through everything if you haven't been through the training videos Would be great if the app was for coaches and not just clients

### "The Good App"

January 28, 2026

5.0

So far i am enjoying it and have no complaint. The most important part for me is being access my programs daily and assist clients to do the same.

Pros

The simplicity of the app and its efficiency. i can navigate through it easily and also explain to clients how to follow all within.

Cons

Perhaps offer a 1year or 2 payment options. i do not necessarily have cons but i would have few suggestions : improve the refresh button as well.

### "Feedback PTD"

June 11, 2025

5.0

First and foremost, I can document my clients' training progress. This is the reason why I got the app. Clients can monitor their training progress individually or together with me. Furthermore, I can digitally optimize training and nutrition plans. Daily feedback is also part of my daily routine.

Pros

What convinces me most is that I can observe how my clients progressively improve... this is particularly motivating for my clients and of course for me as a trainer!

Cons

Honestly, there's nothing I don't like at the moment... maybe a few more exercises, although you can create your own :)

### "Excellent software, supported by a team that cares."

January 13, 2021

5.0

PT Distinction enables me to deliver fitness and nutrition coaching to a large number of people to a much higher standard, and in far less time than previously possible. The support team respond quickly to requests, and the system is constantly being upgraded. I highly recommend it.

Pros

The best features for me are the Program Builder, the 'Group Management' system, and the quality of the app/client website login portal. I love the ease with which you can deliver a multifaceted suite of coaching options to a large number of individuals, whilst maintaining the ability to quickly customise as required.

Cons

It doesn't integrate with Apple Health or Garmin Connect which is a shame as many of my clients use one or the other. There are various workarounds to this though, to be fair.

[ABC Trainerize](https://www.capterra.com/p/140262/Trainerize/)

PT Distinction had a better, more client friendly system of delivering habit coaching, and an excellent custom app. Both are done really well and make the client experience (and my own) smooth and enjoyable.

### "The most comprehensive fitness software you will find."

February 6, 2020

5.0

Pros

I love that I can do anything I need/want to do for my business. I can design programs in minutes. I can make changes that update across multiple clients at once. I can customize exercises, forms, assessments in addition to adding pdfs and tutorials. I have been able to customize a nearly year-long habit-based nutrition program that offers daily lessons and bi-weekly habits.

Cons

The only con is there is a bit of a learning curve with the software. Once you spend some time with it, I find it user-friendly but this can be overwhelming in the beginning.

### "Great Product and easy to use "

April 10, 2024

5.0

I have no complaints at all and thoroughly enjoying using PTDistinction. Having the addition of the Facebook groups, GDFY & The Academy has made a HUGE difference. I would absolutely recommend to others to use.

Pros

I did so much research on the different App's available and this came out tops for me in usability, price, functions etc. I used the Gold Done for You Service and joined the Ninja Academy - great resource to use to boost my business model. Since using this for past 5 months or so, i have found it easy to get around, add in bespoke parts for my clients. There is probably so much more that i have still to find to use!!!

Cons

Probably lack of exercises that i use for my clients. I have had to create numerous. My avatar is more middle age/older females, so lots more body weight exercises and mobility needed.

### "Easy to build, but does take time"

July 19, 2021

5.0

So far, it has been a good experience. I think there is definitely, A LOT of potential for this to be a kick butt program for clients and trainers. I love a lot of the features and am excited to see how my business will take off, once I input all the rest of my programs together. It does take sometime to really fully customize it so it feels more like YOUR brand, but overall, this is a fantastic software. Keep it up!

Pros

I loved that I had control of who has access to the app. I also like that I can create programs easily. But my favorite part is how simple it was to upload videos and exercises that I can implement into my programs. It does take time to upload a ton of material, but each piece of new information added to my programs. I like how many of my clients were able to easily understand the app without too much confusion. There were minor details that I needed to share, but was able to do easily without issues.

Cons

Two things: 1) the stopwatch/timer did not work for many of my clients who tried to use it, including myself. 2) I, as a trainer, do not receive notifications of when a client completes a workout, and there is not way for me to give them an immediate feedback on their progress, other than through the messaging system, but it can be confusing, if a client does not know which workout session I am referring too. 3) There is not an easy way for a client to see my schedule and my availabilities. I had to go through a 3rd party to get a calendar. However, I do LOVE the feature that we can schedule my client's at home workout sessions into their schedule, so it notifies them.

### "The Hybrid Specialist "

January 6, 2021

5.0

My overall experience with PTD has been great. Especially when the country shutdown back in March 2020. Because of PTD I now run a Hybrid business (a mixture of face to face and online). So when the shut down happened there was a seamless transition for all of my face to face clients. All I hade to do was change gym workouts to home based workouts for both my face to face and online clients. I felt really great for my clients and my business at that point. My clients didn't miss a beat (some came back stronger) and nor did my finances. I did feel bad for some of my fellow trainers, whom I told about PTD but didn't listen and for that they suffered.

Pros

What I like the most about PTD is the ease of use. The ease in not only adding a new client but, through groups, setting up every aspect of their program in less than 10 minutes. Speaking of groups, using the video instructions, I was able to set up my programs (strength, fat loss and muscle builder) in less than a week. The other thing I like about PTD is how easily it integrates with my website, paypal and other apps such as fitbit, myzone and myfitpal. This makes it so easy to monitor my clients activity, effort and eating. There is more that I really like such as the messaging center, the ability to watch client technique through video and the interval timer but I don't have that much time.

Cons

What I like least is that it's very robust. I mean, there's alot at your fingertips.. To the point that it's very easy to get overwhelmed trying to set everything up. I actually, quit. I got overwhelmed because I tried to set everything up all at one time. Big mistake. But here's the cool part, \[SENSITIVE CONTENT HIDDEN\] reached out to me to find out why I stop my subscription. That meant the world to me. He got me back inline and it's been awesome ever since

### "fantastic all-in-one coaching software"

November 14, 2021

5.0

Overall love this! It takes a bit of focus/energy to learn, but you really do get to customize and automate almost everything so it's worth the learning barrier. Anyways, PTD has a lot of educational videos and tutorials, and Ash is in the Facebook group everyday answering questions.

Pros

The main reason I switched PTDistinction is because I can do pretty much all of my client communication and management in the app. I can send my clients videos, articles, check in forms, automated messages, workouts, meal plans...they don't have to use any other service (except for Zoom). I love PTDistinction's ability to automate \*basically anything\* you need to send your client....once you get the hang of it, you focus on more on coaching and less on admin/software stuff.

Cons

What I would most love to see is a better calendar navigation for the client. The ability for them schedule their own workouts to help them plan their week. Right now they can only reschedule what I have put on the calendar for them.

### "Great program for pre set fitness/nutrition coaching"

August 27, 2022

4.0

Once I learned how to build programs and integrate communication with in each program it was great to run and coach pre set programs. Doing customized programming was a challenge because there is so many steps to get to each part of a program to simply adjust a exercise within a clients program. Customer support was timely and helpful dealing with common problems. Any glitches found or re occurring crashing or non functioning features were not fixed within the time I was using the app

Pros

The automations from programming, messaging, emails, habit tracking is very well integrated.

Cons

The DIY of setting up integrations with payment, website unless you pay extra for help to have it set up. Adjusting programs and schedulinf

Response from PT Distinction

September 6, 2022

Hi Chris, I'm pleased you love the automation and delivery of your programs, messages, emails, and habits. To change exercises in a program go to the exercise in your program and select swap exercise. Customizing anything for any client should only be a one step process. Setting up automations on any platform will involve a little set up time as it has to know exactly what you want it to do for you. Once set up everything runs on autopilot for you, so, if that's the service you want to offer, our software can deliver it all for you in the exact sequence you want your clients to receive their coaching. If the service you wish to offer your clients is completely bespoke that should be incredibly easy as well. Feel free to reach out to our team for any guides or pointers if you need help.

### "Great Software"

May 10, 2022

5.0

Customer service is incredible. Especially combining this and the services of PTD Ninja make the services phenominal. The automations and the power of this software is great. I have been using it for 7years as i got fed up of using spreadsheets with my 1-2-1 clients. Then over time we opened a studio and we coach all our clients via it. We also invested in PT Ninja to help build out or system too.

Pros

The software is easy to use once you get use to it.

Cons

Getting to understand the software is the hardest part and sometimes getting the clients to engage using it, but once they have become practiced they find it easy like any software.

Reason for choosing PT Distinction

At the time it was still easier to use than others and they just continually improving it.

### "PT Distinction - Bloody brilliant!"

March 20, 2017

5.0

To have the ability to have a fully customised branded app to help track clients progress, habits, workouts and much more is amazing. It gives me a boost as a personal trainer, ensuring I am delivering a professional and personalised service to my clients. I have nothing but praise from all my clients, most of them think it's amazing that I have my own app. The system is ever evolving and updates are rolling out all the time. Just when you think it can't get any better a new feature appears. The representative and his team must be busy bees behind the scenes. The software has endless opportunities for set up. I am only scratching the surface with what this software can offer, but I know I can adapt and change it at any time. There is an extensive range of \`how to' and coaching videos to ensure you are making the most of PTD. PTD takes the stress out of training online. By having the ability to automate, but keeping that personal touch, frees me up to spend time with my family and friends. The support is amazing. Any issues (usually finger trouble by me) are swiftly sorted. There is also a Facebook group to bounce ideas off other trainers and support each other through our fitness careers. I have used other PT software in the past and PT distinction pulls the pants down on them making them look ridiculous. It really is the bees knees!

Pros

Fully customised app The level of support The automated features The workout library Results tracking

Cons

I struggle to keep up with all the new features.

### "An effective platform for online coaching"

January 14, 2021

5.0

The support from of PT distinction has been great. Efficient and fast with their replies. Having the Facebook support group helps the development of my own knowledge.

Pros

There are lots of features on this platform that have helped deliver online coaching to my clients in a professional and effective way. I really like all the communication tools. The way you can set up groups of clients and contact them as a cohort to help deliver instruction and motivational cues are beneficial to help grow a support network. The client view is very clean and easy to use. The feedback I've received has been very positive and my clients love having a platform to store all their fitness data, as well as track it! It's great to have the app service, as it means I'm easy to contact and also, my coaching tools are portable. And the video workout library is so helpful!

Cons

In the main, this platform is doing everything I need it to for now. The only thing I'd personally like to have is integration with Garmin and Strava, as I'm a run coach. But the integrations with MFP and Fitbit and Myzone are great.

Reason for choosing PT Distinction

The product ticked all the boxes - the main consideration for me was being able to stay in contact with my athletes and clients during the lockdown, in a way that I could continue help them achieve with their training whilst personal face to face coaching had to stop. I will continue to use the platform to help grow my online products for the foreseeable future.

### "Amazing software and team!"

March 20, 2017

5.0

When I first started with PT distinction, I was hesitant. I can honestly say this is the best thing I have done for my business. The PT Distinction team when I signed on was primarily a one man team. Now the team is growing and has created a Facebook community of the best and brightest trainers in the industry. They are always going above and beyond and are so kind and patient with their clients. They will not only answer my questions but even log in and fix the coding for me if I have trouble. There have been many recommendations for the software and they not only consider (and more often than not implement) these recommendations but actually ask for them. Are there areas the software can be improved? I am sure there are some but I am also sure that the representative and his team promptly will find a way to improve any area that the trainers they serve on ask. I cannot say enough. This team is honestly just as much business coaches as they are IT. They are constantly providing information to their trainers not only of how to use the software but ways to improve our abilities as trainers. I am so glad to have these guys and the rest of the PT Distinction trainers in my corner. You will not regret going with these guys.

Pros

Customer Service is exceptional! It may not be an immediate response but they Facebook group that has been implemented really has brought this to the next level.

Cons

Nutrition is lacking a little right now but an improvement to this is in the works.

Very flexible and powerful platform allowing you to coach clients in a way that is tailored not just to your clients but to you as a coach too. Mix that with the live masterclasses, training and incredible support your on to a win with PT Distinction.

### "So far this has been a great platform and I love the interface. Keep it up!"

October 20, 2017

5.0

My clients get a very easy to use platform and they LOVE the app to look up their workouts. That sets this a part from most platforms.

Pros

I really like the functionality and the consistent updates. they really put a lot of into the site and it shows. Over time this will become, if not already, the best PT software in the world.

Cons

So far not much I don't like but it would be very nice to see some more endurance activity friendly areas of the platform. I just signed up for a free trial with Final Surge which is designed for running coaches and it's great. They don't have the same exercise library as PTD does and I will probably always keep PTD so I can work with general clients more as a personal trainer. As a running coach, which is what I'm putting my focus on right now, I will use Final Surge and then ask my clients to go to PTD for the exercises. Over time I will make my own videos so that my running clients don't need to shift back and forth. Their platform is great so I would honestly consider something like that because PTD will gain more coaches that way. Training Peaks is too expensive and Final Surge isn't so right now many endurance coaches are gravitating towards Final Surge from what my colleagues tell me. I'm sure there are more platforms that are great for endurance coaches but so far Final Surge has the nod in my opinion.

Thank you Jeff. As you mentioned our primary design is online training and online coaching but if we can improve our service for endurance coaches we are always open to suggestions. I think the recent integrations of MyZone and Fitbit should help with endurance athlete tracking and we have Garmin integration coming soon as well. If you have any exercise videos you want us to add or any specific improvements you would like to see feel free to drop us an email via the website contact from or to me directly tim@ptdistinction.com. Once again thank you for taking the time to leave us a great review.

They have been great and very supportive. I feel part of the team and my clients love it!

Pros

I like that everything is simple and easy to navigate aswell as contained to one app and no worry to log off and onto other things to track a healthy lifestyle.

Cons

I would love there to be more updated tools for resceduling and repeating same routine or meals on another day / week. It would save time.
