Next, enter a **name**, add a **description**, and select a **plan type**:

-   **Basic** – A **7-day plan** that repeats until the client is assigned a new plan.
    
-   **Advanced** – A **multi-week program** where clients are automatically assigned the next week as they progress.
    
-   **Calendar** – A plan based on **calendar months**.

Programming inside of each plan is exactly the same.

A basic template will be created with 7 days added to each week.
