Not a Fan of the new workout video format
For the past 2 years, this has been my favorite work-out app. It had a great variety of workouts, and included rep based, time based, whiteboard, and class based videos which made it super easy to create a good routine for what you needed on any particular day.
Unfortunately, all of my favorite rep-based and time-based workouts have been turned into class-based workouts, which is a HUGE disappointment for me. The appeal of the rep/time based classes was seeing what moves were in a particular workout, so I knew a workout was right for my skill set. I loved seeing how much time was left in a workout on the screen, how much time was left in each rest session, being able to easily skip a move if I needed to for whatever reason.. that’s all out the window with the new video format.
It’s a free app so I know I can’t complain that much, but I can’t help being disappointed that my favorite workout aid feels just like every other workout app now, giving me less control over my workouts.Show lesssorlowski2016
Updates ruined the experience
I have been using the app religiously for about two years and I loved it. I mostly enjoyed being able to do my workouts while listening to podcasts and stuff like that and it made the experience much better than any other app i’ve tried. With a recent update every single workout I did turned into a class format which no longer allows you to silence the guidance. Although the workouts are still pretty much the same, the inability to silence the guidance makes it almost impossible to listen to any music or podcasts while working out without being constantly interrupted. The workout settings still allow you to choose to silence the guidance and timing but it’s absolutely meaningless because once you start any workout the guidance is still there. I would love to keep using this app because it has made working out much easier but, if I can’t listen to my podcasts, I’d rather find another app or workout routine which let’s me do that. Hope you can change this in the near future.Show lessAndBenz0189
Plethora of challenges - wish it sync properly to Apple Health
I absolutely enjoy all the workouts and trainers on the NTC app. I love the wide variety of workouts and being able to search for ones based on different levels of intensity and experience.
I’ve completed multiple programs already, and collections - each with their own set of features and challenges.
Not only have the workouts been great, but the additional information provided, like nutrition, mental health, meditation, and a focus on recovery have been instrumental in changing how I view exercising.
As for the drawbacks? It never syncs properly toApple Health. It duplicates the workout where one of them gives me credit for time, but has zero calorie burn and no heart rate data, and the other gives me credit for time and heart rate, but then grossly exaggerated the calorie burn to be in the thousands range. However it does record data correctly for its own app. It just doesn’t seem to be able to write data into Apple Health accurately.Show lessRtmp1983
Plan/program unavailable in NZ
Used to use this app with the ‘Plan’ feature last year. Which has now changed to ‘Program’ but is unavailable. It does show up when I open the app for the first time but then disappears after a bit. Read the description and noticed the feature is not available in NZ yet.
Kind of a bummer honestly because it was so helpful to have the app automatically set a plan/workout program for me and motivated me to workout. Ever since it has disappeared I’m finding it quite difficult to keep on top of my workouts and maintain a schedule. Would be nice to see this feature back/available in my region. With that feature I would give this app a 5/5 rating. Without it I would have to give it a 3.Show lessAbdul Bangi
My favourite app is now a mess :(
After using the Nike Training Club app for 18+ months there was an update, for whatever reason it asked me to login again. When doing so, to my complete frustration, all the workout information 350+ workouts over 18 months just disappeared! Not only that, but the Plan section of the app also does not appear anymore!
Why would my whole profile history and key functionality of the app be removed? It also doesn’t marry up with what is being advertised as “new upgraded features” in the app description. I don’t know how I’ll ever get all my workout history recovered. But this is super disappointing and frustrating as a long time user! Please fix all the bugs and give us the functions back!Show lessDuane BG
Workout plan section??
I love this app and wanted to your attention. The workout plan section is now gone? Also I keep getting notifications but when I open it, it's blank?? Please fix these glitches!!! Thank you!jnnynaka
Great app for free
I’ve been using this for about 4 months now using mostly the basic and full equipment strength workouts. The workouts are well put out together and for free it’s hard to beat this for value. Things I’d like to see to make it even better include the ability to sort your favourites, filter by exactly what equipment you have, a record of how many times you’ve done each workout and how long it took you (I find it takes me a bit longer than their stated average on most rep based workouts).Show lessJB957
Excellent fitness app!
I’ve been using the Nike Training app for almost 2 years and it has made a significant difference in my life. I also use or have used other free/semi-free workout apps such as Adidas Training, Pumatrac, Asics Studio, 8 Fit, Down Dog HIIT, FitOn, all of which are good to very good apps, but none are as organized and comprehensive and complete as the Nike Training App. The app is very easy to navigate and the workouts are well thought out and organized. There is a multitude of variety-yoga, stretch, HIT, strength, trainer led, whiteboard, non-trainer, weights, no weights, etc-of the apps I have used, Nike really has the most variety of workouts so that I have never been bored. Also, having a Apple Watch helps as the app works seamlessly and well especially compared to the other apps, some of which do not work with my watch. Lastly, what sold me the most was Nike’s decision to make the premium portion free-it made me a bigger Nike fan than I already was before!Show lessmichaelschenkerrocks
Amazing app
I have to admit I’ve had this app on and off for years but never got round to using it, until I recently didn’t resubscribe to a certain fitness app due to being too expensive and not honouring there foundation subscription lifetime discount, so I hunted around and thought, it’s right in front of my eyes, Nike Training is simple to use easy to download & stream exercises, been using 3 months now and it’s better than a paid app, being a lifelong fan of Nike since my first Nike trainers Vandal High featured in the original Terminator I've never looked back, Nike has been my guide with footwear (thanks Nike for supplying me with size uk 12 since 1984) and now it’s guiding my fitness, this app is proof that you don’t necessarily need an expensive gym that your hardly going to use.
My suggestion would be the minimal equipment workouts or dumbbells only but my huge recommendation would be Kirsty Godso who has a ton of programs you can follow from beginners to advanced athletes.
Keep up the good work Nike…Show lesscsm/101
Great way to start making a change
I wanted to start working out but knew I was so out of shape I wasn’t sure how to start. I didn’t want to go to the gym (especially now during the pandemic) and have others see me struggle to keep up in a class or not know how to work the equipment. It might sound silly but it’s true. I read an article that listed free apps for exercising. I tried this one. I started 3-4 weeks ago and I’ve been doing 1-2 workouts 5-6 days a week!! I feel so good and actually have started waking up excited to workout because of how I feel afterwards.
No one has to see how you might struggle at first to keep up. Go at your pace and work up your endurance! I always laughed at how much people rave about yoga, BUT they are right!!!!! Yoga is so good for stretching and reducing stress. I highly recommend this app to anyone wanting to start out on a fitness journey. AND IT’S FREE.Show lessmelznh
