  • Kick Off with Alyssa

    I have used Kick Off fr the past month with Alyssa. It has been such a positive experience to be motivated by such a professional, experienced, empathetic coach! She listened and understood my unique lifestyle and goals and helped me achieve important physical and nutritional milestones. She was attentive and patient and gave me very specific plans that suited me perfectly. I can tell that she is well educated in the field and yet was never intimidating. I recommend her without reservation!

  • Lack of Communication

    I tried cancelling my training plan with kickoff, but I failed to cancel the first time correctly. I take responsibility for not cancelling the first time. I was able to get refunded.
  • Excellent . If you don’t know what to choose… choose this one.

    I’ve tried several workout apps, and I’ve had real life coaches for strength training and running coaches for 12 years, personal trainers, attended years of various fitness classes, also tried virtual coaches… and this is the best thing if you can’t get a face to face real person coach. And I can’t right now due to moving to a remote location, plus I can’t afford it anymore.
    This is less than $100 a month for me and I am getting really great ideas to help me dial in my already pretty good nutrition, and I’m really enjoying the strength training workouts. My coach checks in daily and is actually really paying attention ( something I’ve found lacking in other online coaches).
    A lot of problem I’ve had with apps and online coaches is they turn out to be not useful for me as an experienced athlete, and are geared more for beginners. Like, if you don’t need to be told to lay off sugar drinks and take a walk they can’t help you.

    Also, the workout screens are amazing. I have never seen anything with clear videos, AND timer, AND notes from coach on the same screen . You don’t have to do anything but click “done” after an exercise, or reset the timer if needed. And you can change the timer and reps if you need to. And leave notes on every individual exercise, not just the whole workout. I’ve never seen this before. And, at least in the exercises I’ve needed more info on, clicking for info takes you to the OG ExRx , which is always old school and wholesome feeling.

  • Mostly Great

    Most of the app is amazing and very well put together, however the video conferences between coach and client need a lot of fixing.
  • Teresa

    She is the best at giving me healthy options and motivation
  • Awesome!

    Great organization that's really progress focused without being demanding, shaming, or rude! I've been on the program a little more than a month and I've lost 15 pounds and several inches!!
  • Great workout app

    It's the best I've used so far
  • Amazing

    I have tried in-person and online weight loss coaches and fitness trainers. It’s always either of subpar quality or out of my price range and therefore not sustainable. Kickoff offered
    different levels of service at various prices to select from. The app is user friendly, and the coach I was assigned to is very well matched for my needs. I am really pleased with Kick-off. My coach reads my food and exercise logs daily and keeps in touch, posts work out videos for me, and we are meeting 2 x weekly for training via videoconferencing. The logging isn’t tedious and time intensive like other apps I have tried, but definitely gets the job done. 5 stars here from me!

  • Be better!

    Thank you for pushing me to better.
  • Good idea, bad execution

    Affordable training is a great idea and using an app to make it happen makes a lot of sense. Unfortunately kickoff has not invested resources to make their app worthwhile. The workouts and videos of different moves are fine but the nutrition side of the app is completely unusable. I liked the idea of having my training check in everyday, but in reality it was not helpful and was even annoying because it didn’t feel like a real relationship—the trainer was just checking a box. I needed to cancel my subscription due to an injury and their refund policy was awful. Beware.

    Developer Response

    Thanks for trying us out - I'm sorry that you did not have a great experience. You're right that it is essential for the trainer and client to build a strong relationship - that's the crux of the accountability and what makes having a trainer so powerful. The vast majority of clients love their coach (92% rate them a 9 or 10 out of 10) but if a client's coach is not the right fit and does not have a strong relationship with them, we encourage the client to request a new coach in the app. It's critical for the fit to be just right. I'd love to make this up to you with a free month with the perfect trainer for you whenever your injury allows - please email me at john@trainwithkickoff.com and I'll set it up. -John, Founder and CEO
