By connecting Google Health Connect to ABC Trainerize, clients can sync real-time data from their Android devices, including sleep, heart rate, steps, and more! This integration gives trainers greater insight into clients' health metrics to build smarter, more tailored training programs that deliver results.
In this article, we will cover how clients can connect to Google Health directly from their ABC Trainerize mobile app.

When connected, the following data from Health Connect will sync to ABC Trainerize:

Steps to Sync to Health Connect
1. Clients will navigate to the More section (three-dot menu icon) on the bottom right of the mobile app navigation bar. From there, select Google Health Connect and tap Connect.
2. Follow the on-screen prompts to grant ABC Trainerize access to your Health Connect data. Ensure all metrics (e.g., active calories burned, steps, sleep, resting heart rate, etc.) are toggled on to allow syncing.
