This app has it all. Most importantly the unlimited access to all of the various programs is worth every penny. Too many times I’ve purchased a program only to realize it wasn’t what I was looking for. With this app you can review all the programs and choose what works for you. When you complete the program, pick another! Incredible value! As for the app, very functional and leaves nothing to be desired. You can log your workouts, reps, sets and weights! Add a workout to your calendar and it tells you what to workout and what workout your scheduled for. While your working out, not familiar with a move? Click the description button for a written description, pictures and videos. This app really does have it all! WORTH EVERY PENNY!

The app is not great as it has mis guided information and clunky to use. When you click on the workout and then click learn this and watch the video or look at the pictures, you can’t go directly back to your workout you have to go back to the main program screen then back to your specific set of workouts. The mis guided info for example; tells you to superset two workouts but list three in the set. There’s no clear guidance on what to do with the third exercise, so I did two as a superset and the third one separate. The last two corrections that I would make to the app are as follows: 1) you have no idea of the weight you’re supposed to use. I suggest having workout #1 work up to a 1-3 rep max then work off of a % of that max for bench or whatever you’re doing. 2) there’s no set time for rest between sets or how long it should take you to complete your sets. Ex; two minutes to complete XYZ workout, two minute rest, repeat for completion of sets. FYI, I am advanced in working out. I spent eight years total in the navy. I trained with Navy EOD and SEALs, as a Gunners Mate. I have been a gym member since 2003 I’m 6’00” tall 190lbs. I scuba dive and I’m very active. I say this to solidify my opinion of this app. Hooyah Navy!

I love this app and will definitely continue to use in the future. It would get 5 stars from me except for two things I find very frustrating in the middle of a workout. 1) You have to have a WiFi connection to keep the set results from disappearing in the middle of a workout. If you click on the Learn To Do function (which is a big help) you lose all data you’ve input. 2) If a workout has two different versions of the same workout ie. squats for weight then squats for Tabata it wipes the data and replaces with the most recent set. I don’t care how much I lifted heavy if I’m trying to save HIIT data. Please make it so that “squat” data doesn’t save on every “squat”. “Heavy squat” should only save data entry in other “heavy squat” fields. I’m currently doing the Super Shredded 8 plan and Number 2 happens a lot. Again, overall a great app but couple things that get to me when I’m sweating in the middle of a workout. HUGE thank you to Jim Stoppani for all the love you show military members. Edit: in the last week the app has twice dumped all data for the program I’ve been doing and the program itself. I don’t know if it’s a bug or what but the pictures in the Learn To Do function also take way longer to download than a simple picture should. Still a good app, but it could really use an update.
