Start by selecting a template that matches your community's current focus or needs. Post it regularly as a prompt or in response to common questions. Encourage members to not only share the resource but also explain how it helps them. Highlight particularly useful responses to inspire others. Rotate the types of resources requested to keep things fresh and engage different interests within your group.
For all platforms, use clear calls to action and encourage members to add links or brief descriptions. Pin popular resource threads. Use polls or reactions to let members vote on favorites. Adapt the template length to suit platform norms, such as shorter prompts for Twitter or longer threads for Facebook Groups and forums.
When using the Recommend a Resource templates, prioritize sharing materials from certified trainers, peer-reviewed studies, or respected organizations like ACE or NASM. For each recommendation, include a brief note about its scientific backing or a reputable source, and encourage members to consider safety and efficacy before trying new trends.
Tailor your resource recommendations by clearly labeling them according to training goals—such as 'Nutrition for Muscle Gain' or 'Carb Loading for Runners.' In your post, mention how the guide aligns with common macronutrient splits or meal timing strategies specific to those goals, and highlight any unique dietary concerns (e.g., vegetarian athletes).
Use the templates to create tiered resource lists, such as 'Beginner-Friendly Mobility Routines' or 'Advanced Periodization Programs for Powerlifters.' Include a brief description of who the resource is best suited for—mentioning specific prerequisites or experience levels—so members can self-select appropriately.
Leverage the templates to spotlight resources specifically designed for unique populations. Tag posts with relevant identifiers like 'Prenatal Fitness,' 'Low-Impact Workouts,' or 'Rehab Protocols.' Also, remind members to seek clearance from healthcare providers before following recommendations, and consider including resources from specialists (e.g., physical therapists, pre/post-natal trainers).
Curate a short list of tech resources, grouping them by functionality—such as 'Best Apps for Tracking HIIT Workouts' or 'Virtual Yoga Class Platforms.' In each recommendation, briefly outline key features, compatibility (e.g., iOS, Android, wearables), and ideal user scenarios (e.g., solo training, group accountability). Encourage members to share their experiences to foster community discussion.
When sharing resources that spark debate, frame your posts to invite respectful dialogue. Acknowledge differing opinions by stating, 'This is one approach—what’s your experience?' or 'Has anyone tried this method?' Moderate conversations to stay evidence-based and supportive, and use the templates’ prompt sections to provide context or disclaimers where needed.
