Library

The Library in Coachbox is your personal collection of workouts, training plans, and templates that you can reuse and share.

Opening the LibraryCopy Anchor Link

You open the Library via the library icon in the top right of the calendar. The icon sits between the other view toggles, next to the "Action" button.

What's in the Library?Copy Anchor Link

Your library contains:

• Workouts - Individual training sessions you've created
• Training Plans - Multi-week structured programs
• Templates - Reusable workout structures
• Exercises - Strength and core exercises

Sessions and PeriodsCopy Anchor Link

At the top of the library you choose between two kinds of items:

• Sessions: individual workouts that you drag onto a calendar one at a time.
• Periods: a block of multiple workouts, spread over days or weeks, that you schedule in one go. Ideal for plans you reuse regularly, such as a build-up plan or a return-to-run program.

Saving a periodCopy Anchor Link

1. Open the calendar where the workouts are already planned
2. Select all workouts that belong to the plan: tick the checkbox on each workout card, or right-click a card and choose Select
3. Switch the library to Periods at the top
4. Drag the selection into the library

The workouts are saved together as one period. Their relative spacing is preserved: a workout that was planned on week 2, day 3 stays on week 2, day 3 within the period.

Scheduling a period for an athleteCopy Anchor Link

1. Open the athlete's calendar
2. Switch the library to Periods
3. Drag the period onto the desired start day in the calendar

All workouts in the period are scheduled in one go, with the same spacing across days and weeks. This lets you roll out a complete multi-week plan for an athlete without dragging every workout separately.

Organizing Your LibraryCopy Anchor Link

Use folders and tags to keep your library organized:

• Create folders for different sports (cycling, running, swimming)
• Tag workouts by intensity level (easy, moderate, hard)
• Group related workouts together

Using Library ItemsCopy Anchor Link

To use a workout from your library:

1. Open your calendar
2. Click on the day you want to schedule the workout
3. Select Add from Library
4. Choose the workout you want to use
5. The workout will be added to your calendar

Deleting Library ItemsCopy Anchor Link

A tidy library is faster to search. To delete a workout or period you no longer use:

1. Open the Library
2. Find the item you want to delete. Three dots (⋮) sit on the right
3. Click the three dots and choose Delete
4. Confirm with Delete

Good to know:

• On a computer, the three dots only appear when you hover over an item. On a tablet or touchscreen they are always visible.
• Deleting cannot be undone.
• Workouts you already scheduled on a calendar from the library stay there. You only delete the item in the library.
