How does fitness goal adjustment work?

Purpose

For Genius training plans, trainers or members can manually adjust the parameters for Strength, Cardio, and Flexibility via sliders.

This article shows you how to do this and explains how it works.

Nota

La disponibilidad de Genius depende del plan Genius de tu gimnasio:

  • Genius para socios: los socios pueden usar Genius para crear planes de entrenamiento en la aplicación para socios.

  • Genius para entrenadores: los entrenadores pueden usar Genius para crear planes de entrenamiento para los socios usando la EGYM Trainer App.

  • Genius para todos: tanto los entrenadores como los socios pueden usar Genius: los entrenadores en la EGYM Trainer App y los socios en la Aplicación para socios.

Details

When a fitness goal is manually adjusted, Genius recalculates:

  • The amount of time dedicated to Strength, Cardio, and Flexibility exercises.

  • The type of sessions (splits) to include during the week.

  • The exercise mix for each session.

Genius doesn’t just replace individual exercises. It redesigns the training week according to the chosen goal composition and selected workout frequency (number of sessions per week).

Examples

  • A member training twice a week with an even 35% / 35% / 30% split may receive two full-body sessions that also include short cardio elements.

  • A member training five times per week with a 70% / 20% / 10% strength-focused balance may receive:

    • A mixed split (for example, push / pull / legs + upper / lower body, with light cardio included in each session).

    • A five-day structure with four strength sessions (push / pull / legs + full-body) and one dedicated cardio day.

  • Two members with the same 40% / 40% / 20% split may receive different plans, depending on their schedule and gym setup. For one member, cardio may be a dedicated session. For another member, cardio may be integrated into other workouts.

Varied

Dynamic structure:

  • Cardio as a dedicated session

  • Cardio distributed across other workouts



  • Weekly-level planning: Genius always plans on a weekly basis. Adjusting the sliders changes how the total training time is distributed between strength, cardio, and flexibility exercises.

  • Dynamic split selection: The algorithm chooses a split structure that best fits the member’s workout frequency, experience, and goal.

  • Flexible outcomes: There are no fixed rules linking certain goal mixes and specific split types, so do not expect identical outcomes (specific splits for certain slider combinations).

    For example, an even 35% / 35% / 30% setup doesn’t always mean “two full-body + one cardio.” Genius evaluates the member’s workout frequency, workout duration, and gym equipment to determine the most effective structure.

  • Adaptive decision-making: The split is determined by an AI-driven planning system that evaluates multiple valid options and selects the one that offers the best balance between effectiveness, recovery, and goal alignment.

    This ensures the final plan feels logical, personalized, and consistent with training principles.

Nota

  • Genius maintains safe and balanced progression, preventing unrealistic or conflicting combinations (for example, avoiding two heavy leg sessions in a row).

  • Flexibility exercises are distributed across sessions rather than appearing as a separate day to support recovery and mobility without taking away a full training day.

Solution

  1. Do one of the following according to your plan type:

  2. Move the sliders to set the desired focus and tap Choose Goal.

  3. Genius uses the chosen ratios, together with a member's training profile, to create a personalized weekly plan.

    Nota

    Los valores combinados para fuerza, cardio y flexibilidad deben sumar siempre el 100 %. Cada tipo de entrenamiento también tiene límites mínimos y máximos definidos basados en el objetivo seleccionado (por ejemplo, la fuerza puede oscilar entre el 20 % y el 100 % en Recuperación).
