Sidekick: Stretch & Recover

This used to be a quality mobility app but now the features are so broken that it seems like whoever runs this company has completely given up on the app. I’ve saved several mobility and scraping sessions to correspond with my workouts and I’m not able to play any of them back so that feature is absolutely worthless and that was one of the main sellers of this app for me.

This is the best mobility app. I’ve tried GOWOD and Wodproof to compare all recovery apps & really didn’t enjoy the experience due to the lack of narration i was rewinding constantly to ensure i was doing the exercises right and the timer starts before you get in position. This app doesn’t have those issues. I love that it also loops through exercises so i can set up the phone and strictly stretch/warm up etc. it also has recovery tools videos which is unique with how to scrape properly. I like the tracking system too, helps me stay consistent without too many extra features

If you’re like me, I’ve been constantly looking for a warm up tool that isn’t yoga. Before I workout I just open this app and press play! There’s a default program that I use but you can always change the settings. I do a quick 10 min warm up. If I’m feeling sore after my regular workout then I just do a cool down to relax my muscles. I’ve got to say, this is a time saver and an excellent way to have a great workout! Kudos to the developers!
