Movement With Julie

I have been using this app/workout plan for over a year now and it's been the best investment into myself. A year ago I set a goal for myself...no missed workouts for an entire year. I hit that goal today, which made it the perfect day to give a review on this app. It's very stable, I've never had issues with it crashing or experiencing errors. It’s intuitive and easy use, everything you need is right there including your history, form tips, alternative exercises, additional rounds, exercise notes and custom workouts. I love the calendar that tracks your workouts - flipping that dot from red to green is motivating for me. The workouts are challenging and achievable in a small gym area (my home gym is 10'x10') with minimal equipment (a set of dumbbells, exercise bands, a bench and a mat). And, the best part is I don't have to plan my workouts, I start the workout for the day and record my weights and reps - it's like having a personal trainer! Julie keeps all the workouts and exercises fresh so you never get bored. In this last year of consistently working out with this app I've lost 54lbs and I'm at the same weight I was in my 20's. I love this app and the workouts, I highly recommend it!

I’ve been using the app & following the set workouts now for about 2 months and I’m in love. I hated the other apps where you had to search through a bunch of different workouts to find something & if you’re new to weight lifting like I was/still am, you probably will typically feel overwhelmed by other apps like I did. Found Julie and her workouts on Instagram and have been obsessed. These are perfect for someone who wants to build muscle, burn fat, who wants to do workouts on their own time & in the comfort of their home. Or anywhere. You can do these anywhere & you really don’t need a ton of equipment which I love. You can choose the length of the workout you’d like (30 min or 60 min) & Julie has everything ready for you: warm up moves, circuits planned out with timers to help you with sets, the type of equipment you’ll need (mostly dumbbells) & a cool down/stretching at the end. You finish up, log your workout & get to see how much accumulated weight you lifted and constantly can push yourself to lift heavier. Everything is planned for you week by week and there’s no guessing which muscles you should workout that day. I love the flexibility and can already feel myself getting stronger and stronger. Started with 3-5 lb weights (struggling) and now just bought a set of 20s ready because my 10s were getting too easy! Thank you Julie & Josh!

I’ve been consistently using this app for my workouts for a little over 6 months, and I love it. Pros: - you get to choose if you want a workout that is about 30 minutes or 45-60 minutes long. - you choose the weight and can alter the reps or time if necessary - the videos on how to do each exercise makes you confident in doing an exercise for the first time - every exercise has several alternate movements. I don’t have a bench, but because of the no-bench alternative movement options, I never feel like it affects the quality of the workout. - the workouts are intentional and I never get bored with doing the same old deadlifts, squats, etc. -there is a stretch warm up and cool down for every workout - you can do it at home, in a hotel room, at the gym, ANYWHERE. - you will see results. I have always been consistent in going to the gym, and while I know that lasting results take time, these structured workouts will have you noticing results within a couple of months. Cons: - I do wish that she would explain what muscles are being targeted for every move. It is mentioned in some exercises, but most of them just have notes on your form and such. - knowing how to put in your weights may seem a bit confusing at first, so read the notes section of each workout because she will explain how and why. One last thing- this app + her podcast “Embrace Your Real” + her Macro Counting program will help you be consistent and succeed in your wellness journey.
