"Makes it easy to learn new exercises"
What do you like best about PT Distinction?

I love that PT Distinction have inbuilt videos to explain how to do exercises - my clients note that this make it much easier for them as well! The library of workouts to choose from is very extensive, and PTD are always adding more! It makes my job much easier. I even have the choice to upload my own videos if I wanted to, to personalise the app! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about PT Distinction?

The only 2 things I can think of is that my clients say it's confusing when they're tracking their workouts and their progress- they're unsure if what they have tracked has saved or not. And that it's clunky to be able to reschedule/modify existing workouts (though this could also be a lack of my understanding also! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about PT Distinction?

The front end of the app works seemlesly. Clients find it very easy to use & they comment regularly on the apps ease of use.

All the features of the app are great. The tracking saltwater is accurate and concise and they regularly update the app, which is amazing. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about PT Distinction?

The Trainer App, is a little clunky on the mobile phone. So, you have to update client profiles on your laptop. Which does slow things down a little.

This is especially difficult, when you have back to back sessions & don't have time to get on the laptop. Meaning you need to do the updating at the end of the day.

This is my only gripe. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Has everything I need as a multi-focus coach."
What do you like best about PT Distinction?

I am a personal trainer, but I focus a lot on habit coaching and nutrition as well. This app has been great. I held out from investing in an app - but when I found this one it was a no brainer to me. The functionality and the features make it so easy to house everything inside the app for my clients. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about PT Distinction?

I haven't really noticed a downside. Right now I am unable to sync YouTube videos which is kind of a bummer - but it's not the end of the world. It would be really cool to be able to "go live" on the app and host masterclasses on here - but that would most likely be an enormous undertaking lol Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Appreciation for the capabilities of the platform"
What do you like best about PT Distinction?

Through PTDistinction I found a company that set up my pipeline for all of my clients. This saved me months of tech work to create my system. PT Distinction has great resources for marketing, how to use the platform and much more. Able to take payments as well right within the platform. This is allowing me to work with my in-person and online clients with ease to deliver diet plans, custom workouts and any other info to help my clients. I have found it easier and a flatter learning curve relative to other sites. I am very pleased with my choice. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about PT Distinction?

With PT Distinction University to guide you, you can find the resources to upskill yourself and present a smoother experience for my clients. The only downside is with so much adaptability, there is a bit of a learning curve, but as I said above, plenty of resources to speed up this 'problem.' Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
