Trainzo vs Hevy Coach.

Hevy Coach is the coaching side of Hevy, a workout logger used by millions. Your clients train in the Hevy app and get Hevy Pro free while you coach them.

It is simple and strong on the workout: eight tracking types, effort (RPE) on every set, supersets, and teams at no extra cost. It costs US$25 a month for up to ten clients after a 30-day trial. There is no free plan.

Trainzo does more around the workout — habits, goals, check-ins, broadcasts and automations — with a free plan for three clients and lower prices past ten. If the workout log is all you need and your clients already use Hevy, Hevy Coach is a very good choice.

Hevy Coach details last checked 26 October 2026, from their public pricing, feature and help pages. Plans and prices change — confirm on their site before deciding.

• Your clients may already use it. Hevy is a popular workout app with a social feed, and coached clients get Hevy Pro free — nothing new for them to learn.
• Deeper set logging. Eight tracking types, including assisted and weighted bodyweight work, and RPE on every set. Trainzo has seven types and no RPE logging yet.
• Cheaper from six to ten clients. US$25 covers up to ten; on Trainzo six to ten clients is US$29.
• Teams today, at no extra cost. Trainzo’s team seats are not live yet.
• If you coach the workout and nothing else, and your clients love Hevy, choose Hevy Coach. Genuinely.

• A free plan. Three clients, no card, no expiry. Hevy Coach has a trial, then US$25 a month.
• More than the workout. Habits, goals, check-ins with your own questions, broadcasts and automations — none of which we found listed for Hevy Coach.
• Cheaper as you grow: US$29 against US$50 for 15 clients, US$49 against US$90 for 30.
• Richer messages: photos, video, voice notes and files in each client’s thread.
• One person, one account. A coach can train under another coach, and a client can have a strength coach and a physio at once, each kept apart, on one login.
• Health data from Apple Health and Health Connect, shared coach by coach, filling habits like steps by themselves.
• A bigger library: 2,004 movements and 25 programmes, on every plan, the free one too.

On Trainzo an account is a person, not a role. The same person can coach a roster, be a client of one coach, be a client of three coaches, or all of it at once: one email, one login, and each coaching relationship kept private from the others.

Here is what that means in practice. Say you coach twenty clients and you also train with a powerlifting coach. On some platforms that means two accounts and a second email address. On Trainzo it is one login with two sides. Your coach never sees your clients, and your clients never see your coach.
