Hands down one of the best apps for fitness I have ever used. I have been working out for years and just maintained where I have been. Thinking to myself let’s give this app a try and just see but I’m sure I’m to advanced for it. Needless to say…. I’m sore literally every other day or even every day till my recovery days. I have seen more progress in the 3 weeks I have been using it than I have in 3 months! Hands down one of the best. Also gives you many different ways to workout plus from ANYWHERE. How awesome is that. The food tacking is on point, water in take, period tracker. I can keep going. A must try for sure for everyone!
I’ve had other workout plan apps before but I love that there’s a community within the app. It makes me feel like if I can’t stay accountable to myself, that I need to stay accountable to my community. I love seeing what everyone else is up to as well and see their progress. I’ve lost 6lbs already in 3 weeks and it wasn’t all working out because I have 2 babies that keep me busy and I just had to have emergency surgery, so I can’t workout at the moment, but the app offers a way to keep you accountable with water intake and I feel like I need to stay accountable with my eating habits as well because there’s a feature to log in your food. Also seeing all the other wonderful women in the app and how positive they are and excited to workout makes me excited to get back at it when I’m fully recovered. Love love love this app!!
Okay, so this app is ALL encompassing. And I love love love Heidi and her message to women. She really did put so much thought into this app. That being said I would love to see certain things in some of the update pushes. First, I’d love the option of built in warm ups and stretches in the workouts. Just some body weight moves to start and a few stretches to end. It could be optional, skip it if you want. Next, I would loveeeeee workout suggestions based on where I am in my cycle. Having a cycle tracker in a workout app is HUGE. But incorporating workout suggestions based on the tracker would be life changing. Like hey, you started your period, here are some workouts that your body would love right now, like some yoga or gentle workouts. My last thing is to turn off the timer on workouts? Idk if I’m missing something here, but workouts that say 12 reps each side and then randomly just goes to my rest period without me hitting that I’m done. Unless it’s a timed exercise it shouldn’t do that. Like I said idk if I’m missing a setting there or something.
This app is such a game changer for the industry and so empowering for women. I will love to see how it evolves with all the updates coming through and the input from all the women using it.

Thank you for your amazing feedback and valuable suggestions! We're thrilled you're enjoying Grounds and Heidi's empowering message. Your input is incredibly valuable to us. We're committed to evolving and improving Grounds, and we're grateful to have you on this journey with us! Keep up the great work! I paid for the introductory rate only to realize the app is like a peloton app that did not allow you to enter your personal workouts or create plans for yourself amongst other things. I reached out within minutes of purchases after realizing this doesn’t encompass anything I need in a fitness app, bad UI/UX experience and they told me they don’t give refunds even though I had cancelled and deleted my membership already. I’m out $70+ and will have to dispute with my bank. This is poor business practices that they’re stating they can’t refund due to their terms and conditions…even when I reached out within minutes after purchase. Unfair and don’t support this. I wouldn’t expect this from a company Heidi created. It’s not like I messaged you after hours or days or weeks after having the app, it was minutes.
As of 11/6 Heidi has asked followers to post positive reviews. This is ridiculous and you’re trying to hide the few that realize how poorly created and thought out this app was. You can’t enter weights, sets, reps of your own workouts. No reports that show your progress within your weights/sets/reps. This app falls short in so many areas, I encourage you to wait until the release the free trial because it’s absolutely not worth the money so many of us paid for a year introductory membership.
I’m literally out the money because apps like Fitbod are more in line with what most of us are looking for. Stick to the clothes, don’t bother with this app.

Grounds TeamThis app is absolutely incredible. I used to be incredibly into weight lifting but really fell off the wagon over the last few years and got to the point where I had no idea where to even start or what to do. Grounds gave me the framework and flexibility I desperately needed to finally start again and feel confident. I’m so thankful. I have some equipment at home, but also a gym membership. I love the flexibility of being able to swap out exercises based on where I’m working out that day. There are a few small things I’d love to see improved or added but honestly in the short time that it’s been out, there have been SO many updates so I know it will continue to get better and better over time!
I have been working out for the last 7 years & my fitness journey has helped me grow so much not just physically but mentally. But since joining GROUNDS just in 3 weeks I have noticed how much it has pushed me to achieve so much more than I ever thought I could. I’ve built up so much strength & feel so much more confident within each workout. It has pushed me to a whole new level! I’m so thankful to be on this journey and I absolutely love this app. It holds me accountable and pushes me to grow each and every day when I’m in the gym. 🤍 cannot say enough how wonderful this app is!

Wow, your fitness journey is truly inspiring! We're beyond thrilled to hear that GROUNDS has played a role in pushing you to new heights. Your strength and confidence shine through, and we're grateful to be part of your fitness journey. Keep rocking those workouts—we're here cheering you on every step of the way!I absolutely love this app for so many reasons but my favorite is that it holds me accountable for my fitness / health goals all in one location. I love the menstrual cycle feature and I love the community feature! Thanks to the GROUNDS app I’m also hitting my daily water intake and have a better workout flow rather than just doing whatever without a plan. I love that it gives workouts for home and in the gym along with the vast variety of workouts it features on all levels and types! You can see how much love was put in this app for us!!! Thank you!!!
This app has completely transformed my fitness journey. I hate going into the gym and working out alone, I feel so lost the moment I step into the gym, since using this app it has completely changed all that. The app is incredibly user-friendly, offering a wide range of workouts and personalized training plans depending on your goals. I love all the challenges options that are available. I love how there is video demonstrations on form since it’s super important to have good form. What sets this app apart is its comprehensive tracking and analytics, allowing me to monitor my progress and set new goals. Also, a period tracker?! Come on! I can't recommend this fitness app enough – it's a game-changer!
If you are a girl that wants to do weightlifting and doesn’t know where to start, I highly recommend this app! As a girl that used to always run to the cardio section in the gym and spend hours on the arc trainer and treadmill this app has completely changed up my fitness routine. I am 24 and have had a gym membership since 16 but until having this app as a guide I rarely touched weights. I loved the gym but weights were always so intimidating to me because I didn’t know where to begin. Didn’t want to look silly or do a workout wrong in front of others…etc. Feeling so much more confident in the gym now thanks to Heidi and the girls creating these workouts, showing step by step guides. Love the period tracker and macro tracker as well! Great job creating this app and thank you so much Grounds team for putting this app out there for all the fitness girlies. <3
Updating my review to include more suggestions - this app could use improvements, but this is a brand new app and is being updated very often! Very user friendly. I wish i wasn’t stuck on the workout screen and could go back to the summary to see what I have left. I also wish we could swap during the workout instead of only being able to before you start the workout. Sometimes the equipment is not available so I have to skip back and forth through workouts so being able to reorder exercises would be awesome. I wish there wasn’t a timer on the actual workout, I often take longer than allowed so I have to press back all the time. This also is an issue with the last exercise as it will automatically end your workout even if you aren’t finished, they should put in an option where it asks you to end the workout or to continue. We should be able to edit the weight used during sets, I accidentally typed the wrong weight used and was unable to edit or delete the last entry. Also, what is the point of tracking weight history if we don’t have the option to go back and look at our progress without having to start a workout?? There should be somewhere we can see the entire weight history for each workout. Overall I really enjoy the app and can’t wait to see what is to come!
