## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Don’t get premium, does not apply to their other apps.

*2023-10-09*

$40 was expensive and will be asking for a refund. They make it seem like you get premium for all their other similar apps, but it’s only applied to the one. So each app will cost $40 for the lifetime option. That’s about $160! Please be more clear. Refund coming soon.

### 1/5 — YOUR GREED

*2020-12-25*

Your greed discusses me. You say “this app is free to download and use if you CHOOSE to upgrade to Pro...” but at day 6 you try to FORCE us to buy it and your prices are RIDICULOUS. 40 bux?? Thats WAY to much even for a 1 time payment. Therefore I give your app a 1 star and your GREED is MENTAL!!!

### 1/5 — So many flaws.

*2020-07-21, version 1.1.1*

- buggy. If the developers used the app at all, I’m sure they’ll know exactly what bugs I’m talking about. I’m using an iPhone 11 plus, not an old iPhone, so it’s not me, it’s you. </3 

- can’t play my music while working out, if I do, then the video pauses and sometimes it bugs out and I have to restart the workout. There are many other apps that can play a video while allowing me to listen to my music like the athlean X 6 pack app.

- no back button on workouts, only a forward button.

- missing info to aid in workouts. For example, sometimes I can’t tell exactly which muscles I should target by watching the video.
Found myself constantly having to look up the exercises on google/youtube to find proper instructions. 
- there’s a big jump in difficulty between day 1 and day 2. The most difficult exercise on day 1 is the dancer stretch, which I found to challenging enough yet not impossible. However, day 2 starts off with an inch worm crawl exercise. Which I found to be impossible. I mean what makes you think a day 2 beginner can stretch all the way like that??

### 1/5 — Ridiculous

*2020-01-27*

Unbelievable. Advertises “free” shoulder back workouts, but once you get to day 6, it tries to force you to pay for a subscription. Greed in its lowest form. Deleted!

### 1/5 — Confusing

*2018-12-18*

If you go to the explanation of the excise, the weird animated guy is not doing what the text is describing. If they can’t even get that to match I don’t have a whole lot of confidence in the actual work out plan. But I started it and figured it would still be good for my shoulders and back. Then it has you doing skater squats. That’s fine if I want this app for overall work out, but I already ran 10 miles and want something for my shoulders like the app implies. There is also no way to contact them and ask a question or just let them know about the explanation issues.

### 1/5 — Đừng tải!!

*2018-06-06, version 1.0.5*

Bắt nạp tiền mới xài được. Lừa đảo

### 2/5 — Stars

*2021-01-19*

Amazing app

### 2/5 — M.E. nichts für Anfänger

*2019-12-30, version 1.1.0*

Meines Erachtens sind die Übungen nicht für jeden, gerade für Anfänger und Wiedereinsteiger, nicht geeignet. Darüber hinaus sind die Übungen schlecht, teilweise gänzlich falsch übersetzt.

### 2/5 — Schlechte Übungen

*2018-07-12, version 1.0.5*

Es gibt zu viele Übungen die die meisten garnicht machen können da das eher Akrobatik ist als ein Home-Training. Und immer wenn ich das Training absolviert habe, habe ich Stunden lang Rückenschmerzen und man sollte wirklich AUFPASSEN! Mit Übungen die man nicht korrekt ausführt kann man sich extrem schaden und auf Dauer einen Bandscheibenvorfall einfahren und wenn’s ganz blöd läuft Rücken Lähmungen erleiden.

### 3/5 — Title

*2024-01-06, version 1.2.9*

It doesn’t look like it’s going to help me out with my back and and shoulder
