Create and assign a nutrition plan

For: Trainer

As a trainer you build nutrition plans and templates and assign them to your clients.

Before you start

You start here: "Nutrition Plan Editor" (route: /trainer/nutrition).
To assign a plan you must be connected to the client, and the plan must have at least one meal item.

Create or load a plan. On the left is the "Your plans & templates" list — templates carry a "Template" badge and their kcal. "New plan" starts you on a blank slate, or "Load a nutrition template" pulls in an existing one. When it's still empty: "No plans yet. Create a plan or load a template to get started."
Edit the plan. Set the "Daily targets — calculated from the meals" and the meal template (the food items per meal). The "Client preview" on the right shows exactly what your client will see. Save with "Save plan" — or flip on "Save as a reusable template", or use the "Save as template" button.
Load a template (if you like). The "Load a nutrition template" list runs through your templates ("… — … kcal", "… slots · used by … clients"); "Load template" drops it into the editor so you can tweak it from there.
Assign it to a client. In the "Assign to client" selector, pick the client, tick "Set as the client's active plan" if you want, then "Assign plan". When it lands: "Plan assigned to …. … custom foods copied."

Turn on "Save as a reusable template" and you can reuse the same plan for other clients later.

Symptom	Cause	Fix
"You're not connected to that client."	The client isn't connected to you yet.	Connect with them first, then assign the plan.
"Add at least one meal item before assigning."	The plan is empty — it has no meal items.	Add at least one food item to a meal, then assign.
