Brian’s Approach & Insights
Brian shared his philosophy, approach, and how PLT4M plays a role in his program. Here’s what he had to say:
How I Use PLT4M
“We currently run PLT4M in our weight room. We have 8 iPads that we use for our students, mounted to our weight racks.
Students come into the weight room, log in through Rackview, and then proceed with their lift. We keep our athletes on a timer and rotate them through exercises due to time constraints.
Our student-athletes all input their own data, and then I manage workloads, sets, reps, etc.”
Why I Use PLT4M
“PLT4M gives you, the educator, coach, or individual, the ability to use this across multiple avenues.
Whether it be using it as a PE teacher teaching sports, yoga, and strength training, or using it for a sports team to build, track, and implement appropriate sets and reps for athletes.
PLT4M gives you back your time and takes a lot of the backend work out of your hands and gives you back what you love to do, which is coach and teach.”
Impact on My Program
“PLT4M has given me, as the teacher, time back to be a coach and teacher again. I used to spend countless hours with spreadsheets, PowerPoint, and data.
Now everything is in one space, and the majority of the data is implemented by our students and athletes.
Our students and athletes have also benefited, and this has rejuvenated them to take complete ownership of their experience.”
Favorite Feature
“Builder is my favorite part. It allows me to create and implement the exercises and movements that I want without being locked into certain workouts.
I like PLT4M for its versatility and reliability. We have used PLT4M for almost 3 years now, and we have never had an issue with connectivity or glitches. It runs flawlessly.”
