  • Needs updating.

    I always loved this app but I’ve tracked nearly 170 workouts and it’s only gotten worse. More buggy than ever. Half of the time my workouts won’t load. It’s stopped showing my calculated max and previous workout weights. It used to show this cool weekly breakdown and I haven’t gotten one in a year. Rest pause sets never record the pause time. Planks want to record reps instead of time 🤦‍♂️. The workout search bar criteria is horrendous. If you have an extra space in the search bar it will just tell you the exercise is nonexistent. Half of the features don’t work. And you can waste your gym time trying to get it to work. I loved the idea but it’s just sloppy development.

  • Crashing A lot Lately and Quality is going downhill

    I’ve had this app for over two years and when I first got it- I loved it. Lots of workouts and programs to choose from, with a quite diverse database. However- In the last year it has continuously become more glitchy and less productive. More of the workout programs are wanting you to join the paid subscription. However when I did that- the programs didn’t convert to the app very well. I.e. Hannah Eden’s program. I had to download ANOTHER app to access the videos and then there wasn’t a way to record my workout in the BS app.
    The app is glitchy and crashes a lot. With increased frequency, I am unable to load the daily program on my app. So here I sit-ready to workout and can’t pull up my workout. Please make some changes. I like the app but am hating the increased headache!!!

  • Buggy with server connections

    I’ve used this app nearly daily for years, logging more than 1200 workouts. I like the database and design workouts on my laptop. The big problem with the app is that when I try to use a custom workout template, I frequently get an error message that these aren’t available - to try again later. If I quit the app and restart it, the custom template is now available. Sometimes it takes multiple restarts. Sometimes it will tell me, “You have no history for this exercise” for something that I’ve done many times. Sometimes it won’t show previous stats for an exercise. Again, quitting and restarting seems to restore these, but it’s very frustrating enough to deduct 3 stars.

  • Great if your workout is already there

    This app was awesome at first. Sure it’s missing a few machines I have available at my gym. But overall it’s all there and there are a TON of Bodyspace and User created workouts to follow and track in the app.

    That being said. If you want to make your own workout or customize another you’re better off getting another app rather than put up with the frustrating way the app handles create-a-workouts. From being unable to do so in the app (you’ll need a pc) to their updates making it even more annoying to the point where you might be better off looking elsewhere.

    As far as I’ve seen it’s one of the best. But it will never be THE workout app until they fix the customization.

  • Very good but has a bug

    When you do a standard exercise, when it’s completed then it becomes greyed out in the list of exercises. But when the exercise is a drop set or a rest pause set etc then it doesn’t become greyed out. It’s much easier to see what you’ve got left to do when the ones you’ve completed are greyed out. This is my only annoyance in what is otherwise a very good app.

  • Great programs, super buggy

    I don’t know how this app has such perfect reviews. The programs are fantastic and provide a great guide to your routine, with videos and step by step workouts. I don’t use the social media aspect, but my workout buddy uses this and has the same issues that I do. You can save your weight and reps on sets, but lately it often isn’t saving in the app if you forget to complete the workout. This may be because the data requires an internet connection, but why not have an option to make it local? The app also doesn’t show your previous day workout weight and reps unless you close out the app and relaunch it. This is a problem when all your tracking data from your current workout can be erased. There’s also no way to pause a program if you choose to only do some of its phases. From the viewpoint of just following workouts, they’re great, but if you can’t properly track your progress then what’s the point?

  • Best workout ever

    I have used this app on and off for years I have tried others and majority of the workout app you only get 30 day free trial and then you are charged an arm and leg. I always come back to this one! It’s a mix between a workout app and social media you have support of other users. It’s user friendly and has programs for everyone from someone that has zero exercise experience to the most experienced exerciser. You type in what your goals are and there is a never ending list of programs or you can create your own! I’ve been consistently using this app for 3 weeks and I am doing a program and I started seeing results by week 2! I highly recommend for all ages and expertise

    I like this app, it helps me stay on track. The thing I like most about this, it is a pocket size fitness journal, where I can track my workouts, and it tracks history. I also enjoy the calendar, where it tells me what workout I have on what day, it just makes it easier and less time consuming to remember:)

    If you use it for the social aspect, that function does not always work. Sometimes it posts to the firewall, sometimes you can read comments, and other times you can’t.

    We are all her for different reasons. Happy lifting!

  • #1 Community

    I’ve had this app since 2015 - it’s an awesome way to hold yourself accountable to the gym and to learn how to use gym equipment if you’ve never stepped foot in a gym in your life! There are step-by-step videos, photos, and descriptions of each workout. Goal-driven fitness programs that lay out exactly what days are for what. Spots to load progress photos and weight tracking. And an overall kind, encouraging community of people rooting you on, commenting on your workouts, offering advice if you have questions. 10/10 would recommend to people looking for a place to start in the sometimes-daunting fitness world!

  • Nothing Compares

    Been using this app since 2012 and it has the biggest database of routines as well as templates to get you ready for whatever goal you have. Love the guide videos that help you maintain form and inform you on routines you have no clue about. Well developed and syncs nicely with the health app to monitor your progress.
