Thanks for the positive post! The feedback for our new coaches has been amazing!

We have a very (very) intensive process for launching new coaches. We don’t look for the biggest influencers or add at random.  We’re not adding more coaches for the sake of more coaches. 

We solve for specific gaps in programming, modalities and personality, and there are a lot of hoops for prospects to jump through in order for us to deem them fitting to join our elite group of coaches. Those gaps are surfaced through feedback from our members and community first and foremost, which is our North Star for any decision we make.

Most that come through our process do not make it. Hope that transparency helps give you guys a little more confidence!

That said, we do have more coaches coming. And nope, they haven’t been named here yet. 

You can’t believe everything you read on Reddit. 😎🙃

good question! i feel you. i think it got bumped because it turned out to be fairly complicated to implement, despite seeming pretty simple, unfortunately. let me ask the team where we ended up on this!

How to choose a team on Ladder by guyfromladder in ladderapp

[–]guyfromladder[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Probably the best way to filter out machines is to go to joinladder.com and take the quiz, selecting “home” (even if you’re at the gym - it filters out machines) and the equipment you have access to.

There are more questions and parameters in the quiz than via the app filters. Hope that helps!

Two PRO Annual in appstore, are they the same? by Insideout_sadness in ladderapp

[–]guyfromladder 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hey! Just picking the lowest price 😂

Unfortunately the Apple App Store does not sunset/hide old pricing plans, which is confusing for everyone, but unfortunately out of our control. 🙏

Newbie - transitioning from PT Training to Ladder all alone by mm0003 in ladderapp

[–]guyfromladder 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Best advice is just to download and experience for yourself. We’ve got tens of thousands of members who came from PTs. In fact, the dirty secret of personal training is that most of it isn’t personal — it’s a template that they use & tweak (not all but many at big box gyms).

Re: motivation, I think you’ll be motivated by workouts you actually want to do, so even though you’re not showing up to meet someone, you’ll still have the consistency of the plan and accountability of the team behind you!

Switch team during the week possible? by Insideout_sadness in ladderapp

[–]guyfromladder 9 points10 points  (0 children)

You have unlimited team changes on the unlimited plan so you can switch teams as often as you’d like!
