iFIT Personal Trainer

if it is hands-down the BEST fitness and training app I have used yet. Once you plug in your stats, your equipment, and your fitness goals, the rest is done for you. Tailor is there to walk you through every single step, while providing guidance, encouragement, and even a little sass and humor! I adore that I am getting a quality workout, with built-in recovery, and I don’t have to spend extra time planning my workout session, or fumble through a workout aimlessly. My FAVORITE feature, though?? It’s FREE, which makes this the most accessible fitness plan ever.

I’m a long time iFIT user for my cardio equipment and love it. I’ve also been using the AI feature in the original iFIT workout app and also like that. This new app has such great potential and I’m looking forward to a time when the bugs have been corrected. I really like the strength building workouts, especially when I mirror my phone to the large screen TV. A couple of bugs that I’d appreciate work on: I cannot get the live Apple Watch syncing to work. I’ve given all the permissions for the watch, Health app and iFIT to sync but cannot get it to work in this new app. There does not seem to be a chat history page like in the iFIT workout app so I cannot go in and see previous message from Tailor. There also does not appear to be a place in the app to change the AI voice except when you first log in. I started with a female voice but it changed back to the male voice for some reason and now I cannot change it back to the female voice. And lastly, I would like it to recognize when I workout using the iFIT workout app. I understand this will come so I look forward to that. So apart from some admin/logistics frustrations, the concept and initial experience is great. I can see that sticking with a regular routine will be way more motivating and effective than relying on my own motivation.

This app is really unique. It’s interesting how you talk to the AI coach. It was fun for me to think about what my goals are, and what my priorities are. I like the plan that it gave me. You can tell it’s a pretty new app, there are still some things they are ironing out, but overall, really interesting and much better than using ChatGPT to generate strength training sessions. I was interested in light strength training that I could do at home on my yoga mat, to compliment the runs that I go on. The visual guides that it gives you are really helpful for understanding how to do the moves. I would recommend, especially for beginners interested in doing strength training!
