Not connected to the Phoenix system they sell
I recently bought one of the work out journals including the whole Phoenix system which they advertise as lifelong access to the work outs. I figured that I would also get the app not realizing I have to pay to use the app even though I just paid to get lifetime access to the workouts online. They are not connected- which is super odd to me and also an extra money grab in my opinion.

Great companion to the books.
I love having the app open while I’m also following along on the book. Sometimes I need to glance at the phone for a clearer view of the poses.
- A few bugs in the app:
- I don’t have the little “i” in the top left of each pose to go to a detailed description as it says I should.
- the calendar overview does not correctly reflect all my checkins.
- at the bottom of some pages where you wrote things in you cannot close the keyboard to progress to the “complete” button. I’ve had to hit the back button at the top of page and go forward again.
Overall pleased with the app and system.
I do hope they fix the calendar view.

Good but
Really enjoying the app, the workouts are easy to follow along and progressively challenging. However the app is very buggy and shuts down often. I’m currently stuck as it won’t let me finish todays workout without crashing and it won’t let me move forward until it’s marked finished.
It’s terrible
I started my dumbbell home workout journey in May 2024. I don’t have to worry about to pay 150 or more for personal trainer. It’s changing my life. I noticed that my past workout sessions and shrinks were completely gone. I don’t know if someone is hack this my workout session. I deleted and reset this app for couple times. I have to starting over from the beginning to the end. I love the personal workouts book. I’m planning to purchase other workout journal but I will delete this app right after I will complete my dumbbell challenge in 65 days.
The owner needs to fix this app and stop allow them hackers to stealing my workouts session and shrinks.

WAS great but now… worthless
Three times I’ve entered my workout for the day, but it keeps getting deleted and since the app won’t let you move to the next workout it keeps giving me the SAME workout that I’ve already done!
Also thank you to the person who said that now the data on your past workout is gone — that’s a major problem! I hadn’t noticed it because I’m having so many other issues with the app after the update.
However, to be fair, they did fix the music issue, which is why I gave it two stars instead of one.
So to be clear, the issues are as follows:
1. Won’t hold data for workout.
2. No longer keeps track of previous weight/reps performed. For progress THAT’S a necessity!!
3. Stop with the babysitting of users — if I want to bypass a day or god forbid the data disappears from the previous workout, I NEED to bypass a day, let me!
If they don’t fix the other issues mentioned above it’s worthless & I want my money back.
Too bad, it was great before they “updated” it to improve it. As the old saying goes, “If it ain’t broke don’t fix it!”

Where’s my data!?
Like the new update, but you got rid of my data. When doing a workout, before the update it showed my last personal best on each rep. It’s not there anymore! This allowed my to track my last weighted rep and I can increase from there. I can’t even look at past workouts to see the weight. Love the app, but this is a critical important feature that you got rid of. WHY!?!?!?!?! Fix it!

Get rid of the locks if someone purchases the year
Giving 3 stars until the locks are removed from the weight lifting part since I purchased the year. Hard to align the days of the week with the work out if you want to start on a Thursday instead of a Monday. Should have to scrub through a he locked ones to get to the others. The journals aren’t that way so why make this app with locks? Doesn’t make sense.

Beginner-and this is a Winner!
I have just started using this app, and I love it. Not only do you learn a lot, you also develop strategies and have human support! Glad I found this app!
FANTASTIC & helpful
Only three star’s becausei don’t appreciate being a few days in before i find out it’s NOT free if you want to progress past day three.
It’s definitely worth the expensive price if you can afford it, but i definitely cannot.

Arbitrary workout timers ruin app functionality
This app asks you to commit to a habit each day. In my case I wanted to use it for working out. I missed a step of completing my first workout. The next day I couldn’t open the second workout and realized I needed to complete the last step of the first one. Then I couldn’t workout because a 23 hour timer popped up locking me out of the second workout. I can’t even prepare for the workout by looking at the exercises, I’m completely locked out. You also can’t skip workouts. It’s not good when a book is actually better than the app. This system seems arbitrary and capricious.
Lastly, I travel a lot and don’t have access to the same equipment all the time. The workouts seem to follow the same muscle groups. It would be best if I could them them, but I’m locked out of this too for an arbitrary reason.

Response from developer
We hear you. We understand your frustration and we've actually removed the lock-timer so that you don't get locked out if you, for whatever reason, don't complete everything necessary in the previous day. We apologize for the inconvenience and we hope removing the timer alleviates your concerns!
