  • Helped prepare me for basic training!

    Pro’s:
    1) While the price can seem daunting there are plenty of discounts through sponsorships and for new members which make it really easy to join!

    2) There are amazing trainers for anyone with any needs. Including weight training, cardio, weight loss, and other coaches/trainers.

    3) custom workouts adjusted every time you do them make it easier to start working out if you’re new to the gym or fitness.

    4) The support team (and my trainer) were both super quick to help, and answered anything I needed quickly and professionally!

    ——

    Cons:

    1) It usually takes (in my experience) roughly a week or two to get the first call with your trainer which can be annoying if you want to start immediately. However in all fairness they didn’t start my trail or billing until after the call which was nice.

    Overall a great app and program that allowed me to drop a few pounds and put on all lot of muscle. Allowing me to be fit enough to ship out for basic training!

    Thank you!
  • Feel empowered with my workouts

    I love this app so much!!! It have a plan that is perfectly laid out for me, and I can adjust if needed, like take the weights up if I’m feeling stronger that day. I feel so empowered using it. A real person to give me feedback & cheer me on. Love that it works so well with my Apple Watch. When doing timed exercises, my watch vibrates to give me 10 second warning & then when done, it’s the best and allows my mind to not be preoccupied with keeping track of time. Is very calming to know what to do next. The videos show on my phone as examples automatically, to make my form is good. Couldn’t recommend this app enough. And I enjoy watching & reading about the exercise beforehand, so I get tips like lift through your heels, squeeze your shoulders, etc.
  • Great program

    This is a great program, my trainer is awesome, super understanding, kind and thoughtful. I really love having access to him and having someone to keep me accountable. Only reason i don’t give 5 stars is the app is not amazing. The PRE feedback after an exercise is very laggy when trying to select an option. Sometimes clicking around in a workout can be laggy and take a long time to update. In general it’s a rather slow app, would definitely like to see that improved. Only other complaint is i wish there was more info on proper form for more exercises, it’s pretty bare explaining how to do them properly.
  • Convenient and easy to use

    I am a huge fan of anything that takes the mental load off of me. I have been using this app for 8 months with Coach Jill and am a huge fan. I needed someone to hold me accountable in working out consistently, and this is the longest time period I have been able to do so. I mainly use copilot for strength training and can definitely feel the difference in my mental and physical health.

    I love how it links to your apple watch and how you can workout at your own pace with personalized workouts. I used to do Peloton strength programs, but I wouldn't be able to keep up with the instructors. At least with copilot I can complete all my reps for an exercise without being forced to move on without finishing.

    I am pretty low maintenance as a client. I think I have only done 3 calls with my coach, but you can schedule more if you need to. She is very responsive to my messages and adjusts workouts as needed.

    Lastly, I love how the company is constantly improving the app based on feedback. You can tell they really care about client satisfaction. I anticipate being a long term user of Copilot
  • Amazing App

    A YouTuber had a sponsor of CoPilot and I wanted to try out and had free trial of 14 days to try out it after that you can talk to a person who works at copilot on messages to get you a great deal of %50 of your first month (got it for $50 my first month); after that month it is $99 a month!! I found my amazing coach that is matched with me and my needs and there were great to work with; also if you want to change your coach … you can !! My coach has definitely helped me great started with a great weekly workout; in which you can choose and decide what days your available to the exercises your coach has decided with your needs in exercising!!!
  • Motivation and Flexability

    This platform has been great for getting me more interested and motivated to keep up a fitness habit. I was training with a local guy via another app but I’m so glad I switched (and the price is much better!). My coach has helped so much with making the exercises work for me and giving me “extras” to do if I’m not feeling too hot. I have fibromyalgia so some days I can only get a few minutes of bodyweight or stretching in, so she reminds me it’s normal and movement is better than nothing.
    Basically, if you’re needing a coach to help motivate you and a fitness plan to keep you in shape and reach your goals, then just get this app!
  • Streak update

    I have been consistently working out three days a week for over two months, even though it was rarely on the days scheduled. Before the update I was on a 26 day streak. Now I don't get to see that feature cause it is too rigid for someone like me. I do appreciate how quickly the option to turn off the new streak tracking system was pushed out. I wonder if I will miss having that bit of endlessly forgiving motivation. (Perhaps there could be varying levels of strictness for streaks? Or maybe if I had two freezes to start it wouldn't have been so jarring. This week was just bad timing for me. I also wonder about all of Alexis' other clients, since she's not available until the 10th to reassure ANY of us.)

    Hey there! If the new streaks update isn’t for you, you can turn it off entirely in settings by toggling “consistency mode” to OFF!
  • This is the first time I have EVER felt bad using this app.

    I am disappointed in the streak update. I like that I could shift workouts to the next morning and not break my streak if I have a migraine or other physical reason to listen to my body, as long as I get it before my next scheduled workout. I have a 26 day streak (just started phase three, newbie!) and I have a migraine tonight. I opened my app cause I got an auto notification that I've never gotten and I was greeted by an angry red-orange dot. I haven't missed my workout, I intend to do it in the morning. I've been so excited by my progress and how well I've been doing. I've never been consistent at weight lifting until now. And this just deflates me. Maybe I'll feel better about it in the morning but I don't like how it makes me feel now: Discouraged and not wanting to use this app if I feel this way. (To be clear: my trainer is wonderful. This update is not.)

  • First Workout App That Keeps Me Engaged

    I hands down would recommend copilot to anyone that’s needing accountability and manageable workouts for everyday life. My trainer Alexis has shown me in just a few months how you can challenge yourself without going crazy and burning out. I’ve been so used to extreme workouts that I feel shameful for not staying committed to or being able to complete. It would discourage me from the bigger picture of wellness. I feel supported with Alexis, the workouts are manageable as a working mom, and I can definitely see myself staying committed to my health now. The price is more affordable than a standard gym trainer, she’s informative and provides catered workouts to my needs and abilities. I can provide feedback after my workout for each one and overall as well as message her with any questions or concerns. Love this app and it’s worth every penny.
  • Change your life with this app.

    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.
