So much content for the price
You get a workout program. Except you actually get multiple workout programs depending on where you work out. If an exercise is too hard, you get other easier options. If it’s too easy, you get harder options. If it’s too hard on your joints, there’s a joint-friendly option. You get videos and detailed descriptions that teach you the correct form. You get daily pep talks based on what you personally need to hear. You get a database of tasty, nutritious recipes that you can filter by meal, dietary restrictions, 15 minute meals, hangover food, etc. And if you have any problems, you submit a ticket and support gets back to you within 48 hours. They got back to me in less than 24.
Is the app completely perfect? No, it’s a work in progress. They’re open to feedback and suggestions and take what the community wants into consideration. It’s a great app and more than worth the cost.Show lessR. Winterburn
10/10!
I’m so grateful to Lucy and this app for helping me to feel more comfortable in the gym and for pushing me to do more structured and challenging workouts.MGFraga
The. BEST. Fitness. App
This app and the whole nobs programme is currently my best friend!
I’ve been recovering from an ED for a number of years and I honestly never thought I would be able to exercise ‘healthily’ again. I was nervous to return to the gym because I didn’t want it to be ED driven and purely because I hadn’t been in one for YEARS and gym anxiety is real!!🙃
BUT, nobs has given me the confidence to go back to the gym and I am actually loving going. The workouts I use (3x weekly) take me between 30-60 minutes and I love that you can choose whether or not to include the warm up they suggest or do your own. Every exercise is brilliantly explained and shown via video so you can actually feel confident in what you’re doing.
No calories are mentioned ANYWHERE which has to be my favourite feature of the app, along with the daily motivations and mantras.
I can feel that my strength has improved over the last 6 weeks and I am so excited to see what is to come.
Only fault I can find is that sometimes the app will ‘crash’, although this tends to be if your signal is a little dodgy and your progress on a workout is always saved so nothing is lost.
Can’t recommend this enough, such a reasonable price for such a brilliant service and I honestly don’t think I could have returned to the gym healthily without it. 💕Show lessmolly.anderton

This app crashes CONSTANTLY and it doesn’t take you back to the same place when you reopen it. I love the workouts I just wish the tech would work.amazon1222

amazon1222 i'm so sorry you're having issues with the app, please send us a dm to @nobsapp on Instagram and we'll get this sorted xxAmazing workout program with disappointing bugs
First off, the workouts themselves are amazing. It’s nice to be able to hop around within the workout and change the order since a busy gym can sometimes get in the way. The videos are super helpful for showing proper form. Also, I love love love the check-in feature and affirmations.
However, there are some things that I really want to see changed. I wish the timer at the top automatically started tracking how long you’ve been working out. I can’t go back and view previous workouts such as what I tracked for weights in them, how long I spent on them and my check-ins for that day. Additionally, I’ve been getting a bug where as soon as I finish my workout the screen either goes full white and unresponsive or crashes completely. One other nitpicky thing (since why not, I’m writing a novel here) is that I’d like to see more affirmations to minimize how many days in a row I get the same ones.
Don’t think I hate this app, it’s absolutely amazing. This is the first time in a long, long time I’m excited to work out and view it as a way to get stronger rather than a way to punish myself for eating.Show lessOlivesol

hey olivesol - i'm so glad you're enjoying the app and you find the affirmations useful ! thank you for your feedback, please drop us a message on @nobsapp on instagram and we'll feed these issues back to our tech team to look into. thank you again xoAmazing workouts - a little buggy
LOVE the workouts on this app. It was exactly what I was looking for - customisable, lots of free weights, bar bells and gym machines incorporated, and no jumping! The app itself is a bit buggy - it does crash occasionally and sometimes it says I have skipped sets when I haven’t. Also would like cool downs built into each workout. Would still highly recommend it - I actually enjoy going to the gym now. Thank you Lucy!Show lessPomcat

This app is the best. No fat shaming, no weigh-ins, no food tracking. Just a place to work out and feel good. Love it.nelly420nicks

yes nelly420nicks, this is exactly what I wanted to create for you. thank you for being a nob xxlove love love
i absolutely adore the nobs app. i’m recovering from anorexia and have really struggled to find a fitness program that doesn’t focus on burning calories or obsessing over intake. nobs is the perfect app for balanced workouts, yummy recipes, and daily affirmations. i’m so grateful for nobs. after spending so long at war with myself, i feel like nobs is helping me repair my relationship with movement.Show lessanniev93

we adore you anniev93, thank you so much!Modifications?
I’ve recently joined the nob squad, I’m on week 4 and really enjoying it. My only issue is that my fitness level is very low and I am very overweight, and I find some of the excercises difficult to do as described, like the hollow hold and tuck ups, so a modification to exercises for those with low fitness would be super helpful. I have been able to google modifications for myself but it takes me out of the moment. Loving the app and it has really bought me over to the side of weight training to combine with cardio ❤️Show lessTFR678
Developer Response
welcome to nobs TRF678! thank you for your review. since this review, we've added our exercise swapping feature, so modifying your workout should be easier for you. i'm so glad you love the app and that you're enjoying it 💖Fun workouts, not brilliant functionality
I toyed between giving this 3 and 4 stars - went with 4 as there are continual improvements and added features to the app.
BUT it is still quite a glitchy experience. It randomly crashes fairly regularly, and it doesn’t seem to actually track the number or reps/time taken to do a workout (it always says it had taken me 60 minutes and that I’ve done everything…). Normally it isn’t a huge problem, but it has become quite disruptive at points.
Having now read some similar reviews, I can see this has been an issue for a while. I wish that Lucy had focused on fixing the core user experience/functionality, rather than bringing out more added features.
It is a good programme - I’m enjoying the workouts and feel confident in the gym for the first time (love that it isn’t about getting super sweaty and doing endless HIIT) - but having the app crash endlessly while trying to do a workout isn’t exactly confidence boosting!!Show lessKEP142
