Mid-Year Check-In: How to Reevaluate Your Goals and Stay on Track

We’re over halfway through the year, which means it’s the perfect time to hit pause and take a look at how far you’ve come. 

Whether you’re coaching, competing, or both, this time of the year is your chance to reflect on the goals you set back in January.

As we’ve said before, progress isn’t always linear. Sometimes, what worked for you previously doesn’t cut it now. A mid-year check-in can give you the clarity and motivation you need to finish strong.

And if you haven’t checked out some of the new CoachNow features we’ve launched this year, now’s the perfect time to see how they can help you hit those goals faster.

Here’s how to make the most of this mid-year reset, and how our latest updates can help you do it.

Reassess Your Goals

Start by revisiting the goals you set at the beginning of this year. 

Are they still relevant? Are they too vague? Too easy? 

Ask yourself:

• What have I achieved so far?

• Have I fallen behind? If so, why?

• Do these goals still align with where I want to go?

If you’re still on track to reach those goals, pat yourself on the back.

If not, don’t be too hard on yourself; this is your chance to adjust the target and get back on track. Sometimes a small shift in focus can make all the difference.

Have you checked out the new Athlete Profiles (web app only) in CoachNow? This feature gives you instant access to your athlete’s session history, payments, and upcoming programs, all in one place. 

With this level of organization and visibility, you can easily see where you and your athletes have been consistent and where you both might need to course-correct to reach your goals faster.

Identify What’s Working (and What’s Not)

Goals are driven by the actions you take every day. This point in the year is the perfect time to analyze your process and make informed adjustments.

Ask yourself:

• Which routines, habits, or tools are helping me improve?

• Where am I losing time or energy with little to show for it?

• Do I have the right support system (coaches, teammates, tech) in place?

This is where CoachNow’s new Multicam feature (Beta) can be a game-changer. 

Being able to record reps from multiple angles gives you and your athletes better insight than ever before. If something isn’t working in your training, Multicam helps you see exactly where you’re losing efficiency and how to fix it.

Set Your Game Plan for the Rest of the Year

Once you’ve reassessed and refined, it’s time to map out the next five months. 

Set specific, measurable actions that you can track consistently, not just big-picture goals.

For example:

• Instead of “get stronger,” replace with “add two strength sessions each week.”

• Instead of “communicate better,” commit to “weekly video recaps with my coach.”

With CoachNow Academy, you can now set up training programs, manage your sessions, and even collect payments directly in the app. 

These new features make it easier than ever to stay accountable and consistent.

No more juggling separate tools for scheduling, payments, and feedback. It’s all in one place, meaning you can spend less time on logistics and more time focused on getting results.

A mid-year check-in isn’t about starting over, it’s about course correction. Taking even half an hour to reflect now can save you months of wasted effort later.

And while you’re at it, make sure you’re taking full advantage of the newest CoachNow features, from Athlete Profiles to Multicam to CoachNow Academy, and more! They’re designed to make coaching simpler, faster, and more impactful, giving you every advantage as you push toward your year-end goals.
