If you’ve ever searched for the best app to create your own workout plan, you know the results can be overwhelming. From general fitness trackers to dedicated apps that let you build your own workout, the options are endless — but the right choice depends on how you want to create, deliver, and track your workouts.
This guide breaks down some of the most popular apps to create and share workouts, what they offer, and where a mobile-first option like TriadXP fits in.
The Challenge for Independent and Hybrid Trainers
Many of today’s top workout apps are designed with consumers, franchises, or influencer brands in mind — not independent trainers. They often require desktop tools, lock features behind premium paywalls, or involve time-consuming workflows that don’t match the way trainers actually coach.
That’s why many trainers eventually resort to texting workouts, emailing PDFs, or handing out paper printouts. It’s quick in the moment, but it’s not scalable, trackable, or engaging — and clients often lose or ignore them.
Now There’s a Mobile-First Option
Now, in addition to other apps on the market, there’s a new mobile-first option: TriadXP. Built specifically for independent and hybrid trainers, it provides the peace of mind to create and share guided workouts in minutes, from wherever you are.
Where TriadXP Stands Out
TriadXP was designed to align with the actual practices of trainers, unlike the majority of consumer-oriented apps.
Rapid Build – Create audiovisual guided workouts in under 15 minutes from your phone.
Editable Library – Access 2,000+ pre-loaded exercises, edit them to fit your coaching style, or add your own.
Flexible Sharing – Share workouts via unique links by text, email, or behind your paywall.
Coaching Power – Add cues, notes, videos, and resistance specs so clients know exactly what to do, when — every time.
Hands-Free Tracking – GPS for distance, Concept2 integration, and auto-fill for reps, distance, and resistance to reduce interruptions.
No Limits – Unlimited workouts, unlimited exercises, and unlimited clients — all for just $47.99/year.

Of course, there are other platforms out there. Here’s how TriadXP compares to some of the most popular options trainers might already know.
