GymMap – Here's how to get started
1. Create your profile
Tap Create Account.
Choose a profile picture.
Enter your email address and create a password.
Select your training style and, if relevant, your role:
Trainee
Coach
Therapist
Feel free to add a link to your social media, website, or booking calendar.
Write a short bio about yourself. (Coaches and therapists: this is a great place to describe your services!)
Read and accept the Terms of Service and Privacy Policy.
Tap Sign Up.
Done! Your profile is only visible to others at the locations where you post an announcement.
2. Find training partners and services
🔵 Blue pin = gym
🟠 Orange pin = there's an active announcement
Open an orange pin to instantly see:
who's heading in to train
what services coaches are offering
what services therapists are offering
Click on a user's name to view their profile, or send them a direct message using the envelope icon.
Tip: Looking for a training partner? A personal message works best – write something that stands out!
3. Post your own announcement
Select a gym on the map.
Tap Make Announcement.
Choose a date and time.
Write your message, for example:
"Open coaching slots – come join a technique session!"
"Doing sports massage at my practice today. Message me to book!"
Activate your announcement with the green button.
The gym's pin instantly turns orange on the map, so everyone can see your announcement.
Plans changed? Remove your announcement from your own profile using the red Delete Event button.
Note for coaches and therapists: You're free to advertise your services at any open gym pin. If a pin shows a Verified Partner crown 👑, it means that pin is managed by the gym itself – in this case, you'll need the gym's permission to post an announcement there. Without the crown, posting is always free and open.
4. Filter
Narrow the map to show only the training types you're interested in, such as CrossFit, powerlifting, or general fitness.
5. Settings
Update your details anytime under Settings:
profile picture
training types
bio
links and other profile info
Keep your profile always up to date!
6. Discovering new gyms
Blue pins show nearby training locations.
Click a pin to see the gym's name and available training types.
Click the name to go straight to the gym's website – the fastest way to check prices and opening hours.
Outdoor gyms always include a link, where you'll also find directions.
