Love it! One change I would make
I love the variety of types of programs in this app, and the customization of whether you’re a beginner, intermediate or advanced! For years I’ve been doing mainly body-building/power building workouts with no cardio but this app is really helping me to transition to functional/endurance training but still maintaining that strength training I love! I also love the workouts you can do outside of the programs and the challenges that range from one day to weeks. The warm-up, recovery and mobility stretches/workouts are a great addition, something I wish other apps would’ve included that I had used before. I don’t use the nutrition feature much but I have saved some recipes I’d like to try in the future. The cons I’d say are the glitches that may take place mid workout that kick you out of the app or the weights you input save for the wrong workout, or they’re not saved from the last time you worked out. One addition I think would be great is potentially an indicator or suggestion of how much weight we can attempt to go up in for the next workout if we hit our weight goal for a particular workout. For example, I hit all prescribed amount of reps with the weight I have for squats (135lbs 3x10), it’d be cool if the app would suggest what percentage we should go up to now (136lb-140lb next time). I hope that makes sense, but overall I really enjoy this app and I'm actually seeing results, and I'm not overly fatigued.

Love it, enough said!
Only app I’ve stuck to and look forward to using. I’ve tried quite a few and I feel like the workouts are alway designed for people who have hours a day to spend in the gym. I can really make gym fit in with everything in my life now. Not only that but the app is so easy to use. Love it!

I’ve been using the app for 6 weeks now and I’m loving it. I have my own at home gym but I do have quite a lot of equipment, so I love that I am adjust specific exercises and swap for others if I don’t have that equipment available. Also I have severe scoliosis so the swapping of exercises has been really useful for me. E.g., I can’t rotate the spine so curtsey lunges are a big no, but I love that I can swap these out for a normal lunge / if I’m not strong or confident enough on a specific exercise to use a barbell, then I can swap to dumbbell 💪
My only ask is could we please have prompts to do a warm up / stretch for every workout? I need these personally to prevent injury. :) I’m doing programme workouts currently because they always have warm ups but the ones in browsing usually don’t have one, but I’d like to always have the option ❤️ or maybe even a tick box option under account for prompt so it doesn’t annoy everybody haha, thank youuu

Annoying bugs and not enough control
I hardly ever write reviews but I have deleted this app once before and then I re-downloaded almost a year later to find the same issues still happening, even though I see plenty of reviews saying those same things.
It’s a great app for the routines and meal ideas However it crashes almost every time I use it and then when I reopen it will restart the workout and forget my progress. It also just randomly logs me out at times.
Plenty of reviews have said this for a long time. It’s clearly not the individual users issue and it’s ongoing.
You need to be able to move the workout around. Surely an app based on gym workouts understands how a gym works? You should be able to edit the order of the workout. I know they say you can do them out of order, however this always seems to confuse the app and you cannot do the last workout on the list without it then trying to end your workout. It’s silly little things like this that you just don’t need when you’re on a timeframe in a busy gym and paying to use this app.
It’s a great app that needs a little better execution.

Not so thrilled about this app anymore..
At first I really liked this app, super easy to navigate, easy to follow workouts, overall it ran smoothly. But towards the end of my first year using it, it started lagging. Would freeze often during my workout and/or take a long time to load the workout. I meant to cancel my subscription after the year but it renewed automatically so I decided to give it another chance. And now, I cannot wait till the end of this subscription year so I can cancel it.. the bugs have gotten worse, often shutting off and logging me out during workouts which is frustrating because it then takes a long time to log in because it freezes/ stays on the loading screen for a while causing me to stand there waiting.. in fact, as I write this during my workout downtime, it JUST froze and logged me out! Thank god I was smart enough to screen shot the workouts this time, because I knew that eventually it would happen again. I’ve updated this app whenever they came out with a new update but I see little to no improvements.. it seems to get worse.

Fantastic app and leaders!
I’ve been using the tone & sculpt app for 2 years and now EvolveYou. The leaders are so active with the members providing additional workout content, mobility, and live recorded sessions that are available through the app or their Instagram accounts. Even with herniating the same cluster of discs twice consecutively over two years, the workouts have been able to help me recovery, stay consistent, and make noticeable improvements in my overall health and mood. The content creators facilitate a growth and grace environment teaching its members how to grow in their own fitness goals, move their bodies, and give themselves grace when our bodies are feeling “off”
My only complaint which the team has been incessantly tackling is the app tends to crash without access to the workout, or sign the profile out. However, these technical issues are quickly rectified with a quick email to the team and they get you back up and running fairly quickly.

Thank you for your review! We're so pleased to hear about how much you're enjoying the app and loving our trainer's content! 💙
Surprise!
I really wanted to have a more structured workout but I didn’t know where to start. The videos online are great and are so many but I didn’t feel like anything is actually structured for my goals specifically and my abilities. This is the first fitness app I have ever downloaded and willingly paid for so it was a gamble for me. But I fell in love with it in the first 14 days trial ! I have been now using it for 5 months and honestly I feel more confident at the gym I feel prepared I feel in control, and don’t even get me started on how much I love the offline training option (my gym has horrific signal). I really like that the trainers improve their programs regularly and sensibly. And when I coincidentally spot another lady using the app we instantly start chatting and feels like we belong to the same community. I have already referred 4 of my friends and colleagues to the app. I recommend this for people that are looking for a direction, people who can’t afford a personal trainer (the subscription is very reasonable guys), and for people looking to spice up their usual training routine.
P.S. Krissy, please provide us with workout EvolveYou merch I would proudly stock up !

Thank you for your review. It's so great to hear how much you're loving the app! Keep your eyes peeled for some exciting new things coming soon 👀💙
Always signs me out mid workout
Love the app however the app keeps failing to open and signing me out - sometimes mid workout and takes forever to sign me back in and load me back into my workout. If it wasn’t for this then 5/5 however very inconvenient when signing me out mid workout and will take 5-10mins to load me back in.

Best program
I want to give this a 5 star review, however there is one issue that I simply can’t overlook. The app has a feature where you can “download” the workout for the day, but every time I enter my gym (spotty signal is my guess?) the app completely shuts down. It makes me log in again and then it simply loads forever and gives me an error saying my account is not valid, however when I am at home I can see everything just fine. When I first noticed this i was happy to find out about the “download” feature BUT its useless if I can access my account. Other than that this app is the best way to track all my workouts, love the trainer tips addition. I do wish the “meals” could be summed up in some way so that I can grocery shop for all of them at once instead of each day having to run to the store when im missing an ingredient. Otherwise I recommend this app for beginner, intermidiate or advanced athletes!😌❣️

What You’d Expect From Krissy Cela…
This app is absolutely amazing. Ive been using it for about two years now. I found Krissy on instagram and followed her in 2017. I was a big fan so decided to try her app. It was great when it first launched, and it continues to get better. The price hasn’t changed and they continue to add different exercise groups and instructors: barre, strength training, yoga, hiit, hybrid of gym and running, etc!! Talk about bang for your buck. These days, there are many fitness apps but this one stands out. Love the recipes and the programs. Love that you can track your weights and focus on progressive overload. I love the diversity of the programs and of the coaches. I love the community and the focus on personal growth instead of numbers and toxic fitness culture. They have plenty of home workouts and pre recorded instructed classes within the app so you still have a ton of options even if you're too intimidated to go to the gym. I could never be consistent in working out until I joined this app! I expected nothing less than a stellar fitness app from Krissy Cela and her team and will be a lifelong user.
