Asked Questions
General
How does coaching work on Future?
Your Future coach is a real person who is on-call to support you. They'll message you often, build a new training plan for you each week, and respond in real-time as you need changes or have questions. Once you join Future you'll schedule a Kickoff Call with your coach, which is conducted virtually over video. On the call, you can get to know your coach and discuss your preferences and goals. You'll also receive video messages from your coach regularly and you can schedule Check-In Calls from time to time.
What if I don't have a gym membership or a home gym?
No problem! Your coach will create your custom workout plan with your unique situation in mind. Your workouts will be designed around your location and the equipment you have available - whether you are at home with no equipment, working out in a fully-stocked gym, or modifying your routine on vacation! Your coach can include outdoor runs and group fitness classes as well. Their goal is to create a convenient and realistic training plan that you can stick to.
How will my coach track my progress?
If you have a smartwatch, simply sync it with your Future app. Your coach will use the data from the smartwatch to get detailed insight into your workouts and daily activity level.
Can I change my coach?
We are here to help you to change your coach at any time. Our team is dedicated to your success, and we'll make sure we find your perfect match. We can connect you with one of our Coach Advisors to help you select a new coach, or you can view all available coaches in the Future app by going to Profile > Account > Change Coach > View Coaches.
Can I talk to a Coach Advisor about my preferences and goals?
Yes! We are happy to hear more about your preferences and goals so that we can make sure you are matched with the perfect coach. You can reach our team to arrange a call at help@future.co.
What is Future's cancellation policy?
We want you to be completely satisfied with your experience. You can try Future risk-free for the first month, and we'll give you a full refund if you decide to cancel. After the first month, you can cancel at any time, and we won't charge you again. If you are ever unsatisfied with our service, you can email help@future.co. We'll be more than happy to make it right.
What kind of time commitment do I have to make?
Future is designed to fit into your schedule — not the other way around. Your coach will design and schedule your workouts based on what's realistic for you and can make changes during the week to accommodate your busy life.
How does Future work when I'm traveling?
Your coach will design your workouts to incorporate the equipment that is available to you during your travels: a hotel gym, resistance bands that you bring in your suitcase, or nothing at all!
How can I listen to my own music during my Future workouts?

If you are interested in listening to your own playlist or podcast during your workouts, simply select your preferred audio in your app of choice before beginning your Future workout. You will continue to hear your selected audio play throughout your session and bypass the music option within the Future app.

What if I have an injury or special needs?

If your medical professional has cleared you for exercise, then working with a personal coach can be highly beneficial for preventing or managing many common chronic conditions and injuries. Your Future coach will design safe, effective workouts that meet your specific needs. If you have any further questions, please email us at help@future.co, and we'll be more than happy to make a recommendation.
