important note: recomp is not for getting a recomposer software account. recomp is for personal trainer insurance that covers weight training. recomp is for all australian pt’s who coach bodybuilding weight training (and diets), because fitness pt insurance does not cover it.
recomposer is software for coaches to create diet and training programs. to get a coaching account, a coach must have appropriate professional insurance. the only appropriate insurance in australia is through recomp. this is the only link between recomp and recomposer.
about the recomposer software
Recomposer is specialised software for measuring, planning, building, delivering and tracking diets and training programs for body recomposition. It is an online, cloud-based system, accessed via web browser on any device, so clients and coaches can be anywhere in the world. Coaches pay fees only for the number of clients they have actively using the system.
the link between recomp & recomposer
Despite tremendous confusion and misinformation on Social Media, Recomp has nothing to do with Recomposer. Recomp is for all Australian coaches/PTs who need valid insurance for coaching bodybuilding/recomposition diet and training, using whatever methods and tools they choose.
The Recomposer software, on the other hand, is used by coaches worldwide. It is exclusively available to PTs who prove their exceptional experience, capability (strength) and insurance in providing body recomposition services. In Australia, the only way for an Australian PT to meet the insurance criteria is with Recomp. Hence, for an Australian PT to access Recomposer, they must meet the same criteria that makes them eligible for Recomp Certification (ie be registered, insured, have more than 2 years experience and be capable of passing the strength test).
Recomp insurance is necessary for all coaches of bodybuilding/recomposition in Australia, including – but not exclusive to – coaches using the Recomposer software. This is the link between Recomp and Recomposer.
