Creating your Cricfit account
Once payment is complete:

- Optionally upload a photo
- Add basic info: name, date of birth, height, weight

Then you’ll be prompted to download the app from the App Store or Google Play. Log in using the credentials you just created.
Exploring the app
Once logged in:

Completing your sessions
Every workout is structured with:

- Written instructions and coaching cues
- Reps, sets, and rest timers
Log your weights, reps, and how hard the session felt. Always hit Save at the end so your coach can track your progress.
Connect your Apple Watch or other wearables via the app’s settings to sync your activity stats.
Using the messaging feature
Inside the app, you’ll see a chat feature to message your coach directly. You can:
- Ask for feedback
- Share videos of your technique
- Ask questions about exercises or schedule changes
Parents: create the account in your name for safety, then share the login with your child if needed.
Coaches aim to set up new programs within 24 hours but it’s often quicker!
Logging cricket sessions manually
If you play cricket outside your programmed sessions:
- Tap the + icon in the app.
- Choose Log Cricket.
- Enter details like hours played.
This helps your coach monitor your total workload.
