Training journal
Reflect after sessions, link activities, and get feedback from your coach.
The training journal is your space to record how training is going - what went well, what to work on, how a piece felt. It's a self-coaching tool first, and a way to get useful feedback from your coach second. A good entry takes under a minute.
The journal is optional and only appears if your club has it switched on. Entries are never required - it's always an invitation, never a demand.
Write a journal entry
Start a new entry. Open the journal and add one. You can write a standalone entry, or start one from a session you attended so it's linked to that outing.
Choose the activity type. Entries are tied to a type - water, erg, gym and so on - so your reflections and any progress tracking stay relevant to what you did.
Answer the prompts. Your club may provide a template with a few set questions (for example a training-session reflection). Fill in what's useful - there are no wrong answers.
Set visibility and save. Choose who can see the entry, then save.
Link an activity
You can attach one of your logged activities - an erg or outing - to an entry, so your reflection sits alongside the numbers. Log the session first if you haven't already (see Logging activities), then pick it when writing your entry.
Coach comments
If your entry's visibility includes your coaches, they can read it and leave a comment - a bit of feedback, an answer to a question, or a note on technique. You'll be notified when they do. Keep an entry private if you'd rather it stay just for you.
Visibility works the same way as activities: Private, Coaches only, Group or Club. Coaches can only comment on entries they're allowed to see.
Before a hard outing, it's also worth submitting a quick wellbeing check so your coach knows how you're feeling.
