Frequently Asked Questions
Coaches can monitor behavior data for the three pillars of health: diet, exercise and sleep. For diet, coaches can see calories and macronutrients eaten along with 1 tap access to daily food logs in MyFitnessPal. For sleep, they can see hours slept each night (tracked manually or through a variety of sleep trackers). For exercise, they can see calories burned and steps tracked through hundreds of devices and apps. Clients can also manually enter workout details for strength, functional training, yoga, and other types of exercise. Coaches can also track health goal progress like weight and body fat through connected scales.
Because Health Mentor shares data through Google Fit and Apple Health, it does not require separate APIs (Application Programmer Interface… basically data connections) to each app. This means it doesn’t matter whether your client wants to track their calories on MyFitnessPal or Lose It!, you can see this data in Health Mentor. Any equipment that tracks steps, calories burned, or sleep and shares this data with Google Fit and Apple Health can be used with Health Mentor.
Our app helps coaches understand a client’s overall lifestyle in more detail than ever before through connected technology and efficiently teach habits and skills to improve health. Coaches can save and share text and video-based workouts in our content library. If they need advanced features like automatically personalizing weight, reps and sets for each exercise in a strength training program, they will likely want to use other tools to do that. Such coaches may still want to use Health Mentor along with their current programming tools to understand lifestyle factors that affect training results.
Sleep is increasingly seen as one of the three pillars of health by both the scientific and fitness community. Two-thirds of all adults do not get enough sleep. There are numerous links between lack of sleep and long-term health consequences like diabetes and alzheimers, but sleep is critical for even short-term health goals like losing weight. Research has shown that lack of sleep increases appetite (causing people to consume 200 – 300 / day more when sleep deprived), reduces the capacity to exercise, and it primes the metabolism to resist burning body fat for energy.
