PRØVA FOR CLIMBING COACHES

Every climber you coach, on one screen.

Write your plans, give them to climbers and squads, and see who trained, how hard against your plan, and who needs you. Each climber gets their own loads from their own tests, run on their phone.

The Prøva Coach web portal: Plans, Climbers, Squads, Exercises and Billing tabs; seven climbers on Winter strength week 3 with sessions done this week, effort against the plan, latest test and flags; Needs you lists an injury, sessions harder than planned, time away and a rough day.
  • Plans built on a big screen, or imported from what you send now
  • Climbers and squads: their week against your plan, set by set
  • Needs you: injuries the day they’re reported, finger work already paused
THE JOBS IT TAKES OFF YOU

The admin around coaching, done for you.

The jobNowWith Prøva
Working out each climber's loadA column per climber, redone after every test.Write 85 % once. Everyone’s kilos fill in, and move when they retest.
Getting the plan to climbersRetype it, or send the sheet and hope.Import it, check the lines, give it to a squad.
Knowing who actually trainedScroll WhatsApp, ask on Friday.Every set against your plan, on one screen, and a Monday email.
Hearing about an injuryWhen they mention it.The day they report it, with their finger work already paused.
Logging an in-person sessionNotes on your phone, typed up later.Tap as they climb. It’s in their log when you finish.
Changing next week for the squadEdit five copies.Edit once. Tweak one climber without copying the plan.
SWITCH IN AN EVENING

Bring the plan you already wrote.

The spreadsheet, the doc or PDF you send climbers, a photo of it, or the WhatsApp message. Every line comes back matched, or with a question when something changes the training. Nothing is guessed silently, and nothing reaches a climber until you’ve checked it. This is a real import, replayed:

  • xlsx, csv, PDF, a photo, pasted text
  • It learns your shorthand: FB, TB, @85, “2 in the tank”
  • Your own drills become your exercises in one click
Try it with your own plan
THE BUILDER

Write it once. Every climber gets their own numbers.

Blocks, weeks as columns, sessions as cards. Set a load as a weight, a % of each climber’s max, by effort, or a grade, and a weekly step or a wave fills in the weeks after. 85 % becomes each climber’s kilos from their own test.

  • Copy a session to later weeks, repeat a week, copy a block
  • Give one plan to a squad, each on their own days
  • Tweak one climber without copying the plan
The plan builder: Winter strength, weeks as columns, Max hangs open with a weekly step of 2.5 %: 85, 87.5, 90 and 92.5 % of max across four weeks.
TEMPLATES

Start from a block you trust.

Save any block, or a whole plan, and start the next one from it. Or begin with one of Prøva’s starter blocks, dosed from our exercise library, and make it yours.

  • Base, strength, power, power endurance, deload, a first finger block
  • Your own blocks first, always
  • A copy every time: changing it never changes a plan already given
Start from a template: your saved blocks, then six Prøva starter blocks with their weeks and days.
EACH CLIMBER

Every set, against your plan.

Their week as you wrote it, with what they actually did: the load on each set and how much they had left. Your weekly questions and their notes beside it.

  • Sessions harder than planned, flagged
  • Your own questions each week: 1 to 5, yes or no, or a sentence
  • Print their plan for climbers without phones
Ola’s week: Monday’s max hangs at +13.5 kg with the reserve on each set, Wednesday’s weighted pull-ups, and her answers to the coach’s questions.
IN PERSON

Log the session while they climb.

Coach mode on your phone: start a squad, switch climbers with a tap, a three-tap check-in, sets as you saw them, a note. It’s in their log, marked as yours, when you finish. Works with no signal.

  • Your Google or Outlook calendar beside your climbers
  • Film a clip; kept 30 days unless you keep it
  • They can add how it felt afterwards
Coach mode: the Tuesday squad, Ola’s check-in (fingers OK, skin good, energy good), today’s plan and a note for her.
THEIR SIDE

Your plan, run properly on their phone.

Your name, note and questions on their Today. A hangboard timer with a live force bar from a Tindeq, Force Board or crane scale, holding them to the load you set. Set-by-set logging, so what comes back is real.

  • No re-planning behind your back
  • Pain or injury pauses finger work and tells you
  • Their seat is included in yours
Sam’s Today: Winter strength by Mia Holt, a note from Mia and her three questions this week.
The hangboard timer mid-hang: 80 kg on the force gauge, inside the 74 to 82 kg target.
ON PAPER

For the climbers without a phone.

Juniors who turn up for lessons can still train on their own days. Print their next four weeks, or the whole plan: their days, your tweaks for them, a box for every set and room to write how it went.

  • Print, or save as a PDF to send
  • From any climber’s page, in one click
A printed plan for Priya: week 3 of Winter strength, each session with its exercises, a tick box per set and a line for notes.
WHAT IT WON’T DO

Your coaching stays yours.

It won’t write plans for you. Prøva’s own plans are for climbers without a coach.

It won’t change your numbers unless you switch that on.

It won’t replace WhatsApp. Notes on sessions, no chat to keep up with.

It won’t share your plans. They’re yours, and leave with you.

PRICING

£249 a year

5 climbers included, then £6 a month or £60 a year for each climber. Each climber gets Prøva while you coach them. Billed on the web.

Questions

Does Prøva write plans for my climbers?

No. You write the plan. Prøva works out each climber’s loads from their own tests and runs the session. It only adjusts your numbers if you switch that on.

Do my climbers pay?

Not while you coach them: their seat is in your price. If they leave, their history stays with them.

Can I coach juniors?

Yes. Under-18s join through your invite, once a parent or guardian agrees.

Who owns my plans?

You do. They leave with you, and nothing you write is shared with other coaches.

What about my own exercises?

Add them once, with your cues and a demo link. The importer suggests them from your plan, and around 50 common gym, conditioning and mobility exercises are ready alongside Prøva’s climbing library.

Can I use it on my phone?

Plans are built on the web. On your phone, coach mode shows today’s climbers and logs in-person sessions.
