Good
Not worth it

Hey Tim, Thanks for reaching out to 4Pillars Fitness. Please keep in mind Tim does not write all the programming for the app. Many of the workouts he post on social media are designed for a group working out together based on who is present. The plan on our program and the future ones we will be releasing as his Signature programs are results-driven programs he has used when following a specific plan. - The 4Pillars Fitness Team

Hey There, Thanks for reaching out to 4Pillars Fitness. This is something we are looking to add to the app in the near future in an update. Please keep checking back. -The 4Pillars FItness Team
Hopefully there’s more
I’m pleased with the intensity in the paid workouts, but there really needs to be some added features, especially for $15/mo. For instance, having a timer as you move to each workout or group would be helpful. As it stands right now, the timer takes up the whole screen and you can’t watch a video or remind yourself of reps without clicking out of the timer. Also it’s kind of disappointing that the Intermediate plan is literally the same exercises for 10 weeks in a row. But if that’s going to be the case it would be great to have fields to put your weights so you can track progress.
It’s very incomplete and basic for a fitness app, much less one that’s $15/mo… I’m not sure that value is there as it stands. Yeah they’re good workouts, but there’s not variety from week to week. Needs more features.

Hey BamaBaller, Thanks for leaving some feedback on the app. We will definitely look at this with our design team to see how some of these ideas can be implemented. We will be constantly improving and updating the app over the course of it's life. Regarding the workouts, in some programs the workouts will be the same week to week, albeit the rep and set scheme will change and so should the weight week to week. This is how we progressively overload the body to achieve growth and results. We hope you consider continuing to use the app as we make improvement and continue to release more programs. - The 4 Pillars Fitness Team

Response from developer
Hey There, Thanks for the feedback. We just released the app and we are working to bring updates to market as we receive feedback. Our newest release will have descriptions for each workout. Our newest update will also have alternate exercises and movements. We are also adding a bodyweight only program, and currently offer the minimalist program for those without a ton of equipment to utilize. We look forward to implementing new ideas based on your feedback and making this app continue to be one of the best apps in the industry. --The 4 Pillars Fitness Team
Awesome app
Great workouts, poor flow in the app
The work outs, and philosophy of fitness is great, but the flow when actually working out is not my idea of user friendly. I like how you can play each video on command, and see/follow along, but when I press “begin workout” I want those videos to keep rolling one after another. Especially in the circuits. Of course with a pause button, skip forward/skip back 10s. Having to stop and navigate the app between each video is very annoying. Maybe other people don’t find this an issue and that’s fine, just putting this out there hoping they will see it, hear it as constructive criticism, and offer an option to play through the entire workout.
Stay sweaty my friends.
