  • Concept is 5 Star. Couple of bugs.

    When Jillian said she was releasing the most comprehensive fitness app available, I thought ‘well.. I’ll be the judge of that!’ But it’s true. Meal plan and activity plan in one app is great! But the best part is NO TRACKING! As long as I stick to the plan, there’s no need to look up calories and enter what I ate. I just eat what the plan says and I’m good. One of the most amazing parts would be that the grocery list also tells me what to buy, so I wouldn’t even have to put any thought whatsoever into my ‘diet’ except... when you swap meals, they sometimes switch back on their own and, the most disappointing bug, the grocery list usually doesn’t update properly for the swaps. So it’s functionally useless right now :( The workout functionality is great! One time it didn’t register the workouts as completed on the days I did them (showed 2 days missed, then 3 workouts on the third day) but that’s not really important and hopefully is fixed with the new version anyway. So, bottom line, if they fix that grocery list issue, this will be the only weight loss app you’ll ever need!

  • LOVE!...but...

    I am really happy I found this app. The intensity customization is excellent and so is the variety of target situations/goals. I'm fairly fit, but I get up at 5am for work and don't get home until 7:30pm, so I don't have very much time to workout these days. Well, I've seen positive results by only using her "intermediate bangin bikini body" workout, which is a 25 minute daily workout. A couple things that could use some help though; one being that I wish the music in the vids would change up. It's the same everyday and I don't want to use my own since I'd have to really sync the songs with the intensity throughout each vid and who has time for that? The other thing is that there's no real teaching for the moves and the vids nice straight through, so there's no real learning curve of how exactly to hold your body, where to tighten or proper form, which makes for injuries and not the exact results meant for the moves. Other than that, I'm sold!

  • 100% Better than Previous Jillian Apps

    I have taken part in Jillian's daily exercise and meal programs twice before. The first time I had great results and met my weight loss goals. The second time her app was SO buggy I eventually gave up on it. I recently needed another program to address some weight gain and was reluctant to even consider Jillian until I saw the great reviews for this app. If you are like me and hated what it was a couple years ago, you will definitely love it now. Beautifully done exercise routine videos and the meal plan is benefiting me more than the previous "just don't exceed in these areas" nutritional guidance. I also like that you can customize your goals (weight loss, shaping, 5k, etc). Definitely worth paying for. I've been using it for 6 days and am down about 4 pounds.
    I give the app 4 instead of 5 stars because it keeps resetting my meal selection for the day if the day is in the future. I'll customize a meal plan with substitutions for tomorrow, and then tomorrow will come and it will default back to the original plan. So I now set the meal plan at the start of each day.

  • Customizable!

    I waited to review this app until I had been using it for about a month. Aside from the occasional glitch, it's excellent. You can choose your workout--depending on how much time you have, what level you want to work at, and the kind of exercise you feel like doing. There's even a 5k program, where you get outside and run/walk. When you switch between programs, it saves your progress, so you can jump back and forth on different days without starting over. There's a nice dashboard that goes along with it, and recipes, grocery lists, etc. if you want to add the nutrition component. The only complaint: wish I could view the workouts on my laptop, since my phone is pretty small. If there's a way to do that, I haven't found it. But the dashboard is viewable on your computer, where you can see your workout history, track your weight, choose your meal plan, and more. This app leaves you with no excuse to skip your workout!

  • Really good fitness app

    This is an update to my previous review. I think what might be great is to add a feature where instead of having the timer the user can see Jillian's continuous action and join in up to, say 15 or 20 reps then log them. For me personally 25 seconds is not enough time to do enough reps.
  • Thank u

    Thanks for making me feel motivated!!! I love how it teaches me step by step and makes me feel confident to keep going
  • Amazing app

    This is such an amazing, affordable app. The workouts are suited to your fitness ability and each workout is different. I would highly recommend to anyone who cannot afford to go to the gym or have little time in the lives to workout.
