Your needs can change.
Your program can change with them.

Start with what your plan needs to account for.

An injury-related restriction, a permanent physical limitation or a change in available equipment can affect what you need from a program. Lya lets you request adaptations to the sessions that remain in your plan.

You do not need to frame every constraint as temporary. Describe a permanent limitation as part of the context your program needs to account for.

Before you send: a request checklist

Explain what has changed or what the current program does not account for. A useful request names the constraint and the parts of your plan you want to keep.

• Your restrictions: describe the movements or activities your plan needs to account for, using any specific guidance you have been given. A diagnosis or a broad label alone may not explain the restriction.
• Permanent or temporary context: say if a limitation is permanent rather than asking the app to assume it will resolve.
• Your remaining sessions: explain which part of the program you want adapted.
• Your equipment and schedule: list what is available and what you would like to keep unchanged.
• What you want explained: ask Lya to describe its proposed changes so you can review them.

An illustrative request, step by step

The following is a fictional product example, not a restriction recommended for a particular injury. It shows how to phrase a request; it is not a recorded conversation or a verified training result.

Please adapt my remaining sessions around the following restriction for this example: no overhead movements. Keep my current training schedule and available equipment. Explain the changes you propose before I apply them.

For your own request, replace the example restriction with your actual context. If you have been given restrictions by a healthcare professional, describe those rather than copying this example.

Check the request and the revised sessions

1. Describe your constraints. Use the checklist above to explain what your remaining sessions need to account for.
2. Read the information shown in the app. Check any token cost and confirmation before proceeding. Do not assume an adaptation is included in the free programs.
3. Review the updated sessions. After an adaptation, open your remaining sessions and check what changed. Clarify any missing constraints rather than assuming the generated plan has understood everything.

A generated adaptation is not a medical assessment and does not establish that an exercise is appropriate for an injury or condition. Follow the restrictions provided by your healthcare professional.

What is included?

Program adaptations are a Lya Premium feature. You can explore the free six-week catalogue, with available variants for your profile and equipment. See how Lya works for the distinction between free programs and Premium features.

A training tool with a clear role.

Lya does not diagnose injuries, provide rehabilitation or replace the guidance of a qualified healthcare professional. Use the restrictions you have been given when describing your needs.
