Trainwell: Personal Training

I can honestly say this is the best workout app I have ever used. I've tried many fitness apps over the years, and none of them come close to the level of support, personalization, and accountability this app provides. The personal trainer feature is absolutely incredible. Having a real coach who understands my goals, adjusts my workouts, answers my questions, and checks in regularly has completely changed my fitness journey. Shoutout to Dylan!!! What truly sets this app apart is the ability to communicate with your trainer every day. Those personal touches make you feel supported, motivated, and never alone in the process. The workouts are effective, the guidance is top-notch, and the accountability keeps me consistent. The value you receive is worth its weight in gold. I genuinely cannot say enough good things about this app and the team behind it. I recommend it to all of my friends and anyone who is serious about improving their health and fitness. If you're looking for an app that feels like having a personal trainer in your pocket, this is it.

So this app is SO well made. I absolutely love my trainer (Kathryn) but I'm going to make this review about the APP itself and not so much my trainer. This app is integrated automatically in to my Apple watch, I don’t have to do anything special to get it to track, it just DOES. So nice it’s plug and play and i dont have to mess with settings or anything. The app shows you how to do the exercise with a video, and your trainer’s voice describes what you’re doing as you’re doing it. It has a timer to let you know when to start & stop and when to rest. It’s the perfect guide for someone who wants to workout but doesn’t know where to start. I have a medical condition and luckily my trainer is helping me to work around it and still reach my goals. There’s also an extras tab where your trainer can add in some stretching routines or extra workouts that you have access to 24/7. This app is so well made and it really surprised me. they were so smart about the features they added. Nothing feels rushed, and the app is easy to use - even my parents can do it on their own.

I thought that getting an Apple watch would help me stay fit, and to an extent it helps. But at some point I stop responding to the annoyingly cheerful reminders to 'stand' and 'breathe', because I know that at the other end there is nothing but a computer algorithm. On the other end of this app, however, is an actual human being, who can work around my schedule and equipment to develop a plan. I can do the workouts any time. I think this system would work for anyone, ranging from the not-so-fit like me to people who already do gym workouts. I asked for very short daily workouts that I can do at home, and because everything is set up for me (ie, the routine for each day is all mapped out and I just have to push a few buttons to start the program), there isn't a lot of activation energy required. Of course, I can consult the trainer and ask for changes, but in general she's been varying it in ways that seem to perfectly match what I'm capable of, and I can already see positive changes from the last few weeks of exercising. The other nice thing about this app is that workouts I do outside of the program, if they are recorded on my Apple Watch, are included in a graph that charts my overall fitness. tldr: Nicely designed app, intelligent and sympathetic people on the other end who work with you. I feel better and stronger already!
