how-to for online strength coaches who prescribe depth or end-range targets and need a repeatable review method
ROM prescriptions only help when coaches review depth intent beside performed sets—not when depth cues live only in chat.
Key takeaways
A useful ROM review starts on the workout log next to load and reps. If depth only lives in chat, coaches rebuild the range story every week. This is a reading method for ROM intent beside performed sets—not a weekly ROM-target planner that only names the week's depth band, and not software evaluation of whether ROM fields sit on the log.
Cut depth or short end-range on the same load usually means simplify or shorten the ROM ask. Clean full-range reps can earn keeping the cue or a small next progression. Ignore calendar pressure when the log shows clients abandoning depth mid-set.
Even a clean keep/simplify call fails if clients have to dig for it in messages. Attach the next ROM guidance to the program so it appears when the workout opens, and keep ROM intent beside logged sets for the following review.
When the ROM-review rule is clear, a product like Lyfta Coach helps if depth intent stays visible on the sets and programs coaches already use.
