How do I set up my profile and goals?Updated 2 months ago
Quick Answer
After creating your CENTR account, you'll set up your profile by taking the FitQuiz—a short questionnaire that asks about your fitness goals, current fitness level, and preferences. Based on your answers, CENTR will recommend personalized workout programs and customize your meal plans to help you achieve your goals.

You'll typically set up your profile immediately after creating your account and choosing your subscription plan. The FitQuiz is part of your initial onboarding experience and takes just a few minutes to complete.
