Creating Your Profile

Set up your coaching profile during onboarding.

Creating Your Profile

Your coaching profile is your public presence on IronCoaching. It appears on the marketplace and helps athletes find you.

Onboarding Steps

1. Basic Information

• Display Name — your professional name (e.g., “Coach Mike Johnson”). This generates your unique profile URL.
• Bio — describe your coaching philosophy, experience, and what makes you unique. This appears on your public profile.
• Years of Experience — helps athletes gauge your expertise level.

2. Specialities

Select all that apply from:

• Powerlifting, Bodybuilding, Olympic Weightlifting
• CrossFit, General Strength, Sport-Specific
• Rehabilitation, Weight Loss, Bodyweight / Calisthenics, Strongman

Athletes can filter the marketplace by speciality, so select everything relevant.

3. Certifications

List your coaching certifications, one per line:

NSCA-CSCS
USAW Level 1
Precision Nutrition Level 1

After Onboarding

Once you complete onboarding, you can further customize your profile from Dashboard > Profile:

• Avatar — upload a professional photo (max 5MB, JPG/PNG/WebP)
• Banner — a wide header image for your profile page
• Social Links — add Twitter, Instagram, YouTube, etc.
• Branding — Pro+ coaches can set a custom primary color and business name

Profiles with photos and complete bios get significantly more views on the marketplace.
