Finding & connecting with a coach

The Coaches page is where you find a coach, send a request, or accept a coach who invited you. Connecting is optional — you can stay fully self-coached and still use the entire training engine.

Browse and request a coach

1. Open Coaches and go to the "Find a coach" list.
2. Review each coach's methodology, certifications, and tier badge to compare fit.
3. Click "Request this coach" on your pick — the button reads "Sending…" while it submits.
4. They move to "Your coaches" with a "request sent" badge, showing "Waiting for the coach to accept your request" until they do.

Accept a coach who invited you

A coach can add you first. They appear under "Your coaches" with the note "This coach invited you. Choose what to share, then accept."

1. Find that coach under "Your coaches".
2. Set the sharing toggles for what they can see — see Choosing what your coach can see.
3. Click "Accept & connect". The badge changes to "connected".

What the status badges mean

• "request sent" — a connection is pending: either your request to a coach, or a coach's invite awaiting your acceptance.
• "connected" — you're on the coach's roster and sharing is active per your toggles.
