  • Exactly what I needed!

    I’m absolutely loving this app. I love being able to follow along each step of a workout, or just tap complete when I’m done. The only thing I would change is the placement of the “buttons.” The ‘back’ button being right next to the ‘more info’ button sometimes means I hit the wrong one. Clumsy workout fingers aren’t too coordinated. But I still love this app. And Claire Thomas’s workouts are doing this body very good!

  • No excuses

    I personally follow Jeremy Scott Fitness on this app but I am aware that you can explore others. This app has workouts in the palm of your hand. I am a planner. Looking ahead at the week’s agenda helps me get ready mentally and for action. There are other programs out there that are similar. What I like about this app is that it focuses on the fitness and not bombarding you with products. You just pick a plan and go.

  • Best yet

    I have tried a whole lotta programs / mentors over the last 15 years. I am a 53 year old ex professional/ competitive athlete (snowboard / skateboard) and have been enjoying my sports for than ever because I am always trying to stave off the diminishing effects of age. I have a busy life and this program and the way the app works/ tracks and all of its features are the best I have found hands down! Well done team.

  • BEST APP AND PROGRAM OUT THERE!!

    Seriously y’all… I’ve tried so many programs that I haven’t stuck to for one reason or the other…and I’m sure you’ve seen it everyone, but I stuck to Claire’s because it’s amazing, fun and effective! There’s enough variety to keep it interesting and fun, yet enough repeat workouts /exercises to help with progressive overload and help monitor your progress. Would highly recommend for anyone !!

  • Not impressed

    The work outs themselves are great. But there’s too many trainers to choose from. I messaged my trainer and got a response two weeks later that was very vague and not helpful. There were no cardio recommendations or nutrition information within the trainers section so I have to go search for meal prep and plans on a different trainer. The core work outs didn’t feel beginner friendly as someone who’s done plans and apps by different trainers. I’m going to finish this 6 week plan with Alex Rice and move on. I also would appreciate some type of logging my weight as I’m doing the sets so I can track my strength progression. Love some of the trainers but just really not crazy about this particular app. There’s definitely better out there

  • Trouble

    Love the app as a beginner but only problem is that the app keeps saying that no internet connection even when connected to wifi and every app is working. Tried turning my phone in and off and every other app is working tried deleting and reinstalling the app and now it won’t let me log in I checked my settings and the wifi and cellular data is on for the app. I checked with billing and subscription and everything is all good but the app is still not working for me.

  • Very good, room for improvement

    It’s a a great app and has helped me to get back in good shape. I would love to give 5 stars, especially to the creators making the most of the platform (Magnus for example).

    The only issue is with the app support. The built in help request either doesn’t work or the devs don’t respond. Sent numerous requests for help over months period and no reply. (Where should I get these btw app, email?)

    Much to like otherwise, there is an amazing amount of quality content from excellent trainers in this app. The trainers put a lot of effort into providing a variety of workouts and there’s something for everyone among this app. It would be great if finding the right content was easier, especially as gyms are closed and many of us are using home gyms or building it up slowly. Not all of the trainers are consistent w what’s needed for their programs and it would actually be nice if I could enter a general list of equipment I have and be provided recommended programs (as do a couple competing apps). Also, journaling your progress w reps / weight will have to be outside the app as it’s not built in. I realize this all is more about the training content but would be great to be all in one and track your progress. A great app for content that is very good overall for training.

  • Best app ever!!

    This app is amazing!! An amazing selection of workouts and programs to follow! Love that it shows videos of how to do each exercise with tips as well. Then it even includes a way to track the number of sets and give you a timer for rest! The rest timer is one of my favorites because then I don’t get stuck just standing around and it counts down to when you should get back to work! Love this app and it’s creator Brit! 🔥💕

  • Good content, poor design

    Weird that an app made for exploring and watching video content is so bad at that. I signed up specifically for one yoga instructor, and for weeks didn’t even know I could access other (creators all advertise it as “their app” and during the sign up process, you’re led to believe you’re just paying for this one set of content).

    It’s so hard to explore or search for other yoga content without literally clicking through an entire list of anyone tagged with yoga. And the video player always feels glitchy. I’ll probably renew for one more month but I can’t justify paying unless I find some creators I really love who update content regularly.

  • Great app for workouts

    I’m actually pretty impressed by this app. It’s good for both checking out your upcoming workouts and has a lot of good functions to use during your workouts. They really thought of just about everything.

    It took a little bit of time to notice and learn all the functions, but after 4 or 5 days, it’s all so helpful and easy to use- I think I’m sold.
