30 Day Splits Challenge

The workouts themselves I use in conjunction with martial arts and MMA, and have been extremely helpful and made me more flexible in a matter of days ! There are two main issues, however, that I have with this app that make it a bit annoying to use. The first, unlike other stretching, yoga or workout apps, the iPhone screen auto-lock is not disabled during workouts. This means I have to constantly tap my screen or re-sign in mid stretch to keep the phone screen on, messing up the whole flow of the routine and preventing me from holding a particular stretch for more than a few seconds. The second is that there is no sound in this app. No voice overs, no beeps, no option to turn them on or off, nothing. These two additions would make it so much more easy to zone in on the stretching routine without having to constantly fiddle with the phone itself instead of interrupting it 🙂

So I had my right splits before getting this app and I was kinda of close to having my left splits but I’m stiff as a board, I mean I have a stiff back, bad arches...you name it😂Everyone’s body is different and it may take longer than others to be able to achieve the splits. Some of us are naturally flexible and some of us are as stiff as a board. Take your time and don’t give up even if you don’t see improvement right away or even a week or so into the challenge, your body just has to get more and more used to stretching especially if you are a beginner. This will take time, patience, and effort but don’t give up! By the time I completed the 30 day challenge I had both splits and very close to my middle and I’m already working on my right and left over splits now!

I don’t like the layout of the app. The sound was not working for the app so I do not know what that feature is like. The app uses pictures instead of video so it’s hard to tell how the exercise is suppose to be preformed. Also the lack of video means my phone does go into sleep mode unless I change the setting which, in my opinion, is a lot of work to use one app. It just isn’t the smoothest or user friendly workout app I have used. I did not even finish the first day because of how hard it is to follow. It is the most cost effective app I found for flexibility and I do want to learn the splits but after trying this app I rather pay to use a different app.
