### 5/5 — Fun and effective

*2024-12-29, version 2.11.5*

I’ve really enjoyed my trial so far. Great classes and great instructors.

### 5/5 — Doesn’t pick up workouts

*2024-12-22, version 2.11.5*

I love booking my classes and checking in using the app.  It’s easy and intuitive … but I don’t use an AppleWatch, so it doesn’t pick up most of my workouts. 

I just saw the Year in Review and it says I did 9 workouts.   That’s more frustrating that just not showing any… I celebrated my 100th workout a few months ago and am into my 140’s. 
Otherwise? It’s handy.

### 5/5 — Love it!

### 2/5 — No clases during holidays

*2025-12-26, version 3.2.11*

Why is it that there is no clases in the 26th and on Sunday the 28th, I understand is the holidays but all gyms in the area opened today and over the weekend and I’m paying more than a gym membership, I go to clases for my mental health and Is such an inconvenience not been able to have classes for all the money I pay for this. Very dissatisfied and I’m thinking on leavening.

### 2/5 — Not as useful for non-Apple Watch owners

*2021-09-16, version 2.3.2*

The app looks great but sadly, I do not own an Apple Watch (I have a Fitbit) so all the app does for me is letting me manage my class bookings. 
I would love to be able to see my activity properly recorded (especially for the group events collecting points as a community) but I guess it will have to wait until the app is made to work with Fitbit or until I can purchase an Apple Watch.

### 2/5 — Pretty Glitchy and Not the best UI

*2021-03-17, version 2.2.0*

I always have to wait a few seconds to be able to press anything in the app, and it sometimes has an error message pop up that I can’t close; so I have to restart the app.

I still enjoy Basecamp, but the app isn’t the best.

Not to compare too much... but I think the Orangetheory app could be emulated a little bit from a UI perspective.

### 3/5 — Good in theory!

*2026-03-04, version 3.3.2*

I love the app in theory but I think there’s a bug that makes it difficult to change your zones or max heart rate. I click the save button and it goes to default without saving my suggestions. 

I want to utilize the app more but find it’s lacking in that regard.

### 3/5 — Little buggy but over all good

*2025-01-13, version 2.11.6*

Does a good job tracking vitals but for some reason doesn’t connects my workout sessions to points

### 3/5 — Workout tracking problem

*2023-11-11*

The app hasn’t been tracking the workout calories properly on my Apple Watch since the last update. Some days it works fine, others it just doesn’t track the calories. For example, over the past weeks I have started the app with the Basecamp class and three minutes later it would still show my heart bit on the warm up level. The workout tracking is the app’s most important feature for me, so I am switching to Apple’s tracker whenever I realize the Basecamp one will not workout.

### 3/5 — Good App with some Bugs

*2022-09-18, version 2.6.0*

App works well for alerting, it’s easy and intuitive to book classes, and the UI is straightforward. Overall great work I will say that the app on my phone immediately crashes and closes when I first open it. A second attempt usually works just fine. I’ve had it crash and quit on me a few times trying to book a class or cancel a reservation

### 3/5 — Could be better

*2021-10-04, version 2.3.2*

It’s nice to book classes but I wish it would send a reminder earlier than 15min and additionally have an option to view all your scheduled classes and at which location. I’ve had issues when I book thinking it defaulted to my primary location but it booked at another location in town instead so I go to the wrong location or miss it bc the start times are different between locations.

### 3/5 — Lots of bugs makes it difficult to use

*2021-05-05, version 2.2.2*

Great gym & workout but the app is really buggy.  I’ve updated my OS & reloaded the app and am still encountering issues, to include the app just closing when I try to book a class.  I also wish you had the ability to choose where you want to sit in class when you register.

### 4/5 — Welcoming but better not be your first gym

*2024-04-17*

The staff is super kind, the place is clean, and the workouts can be fun but if you’ve never been to other gym classes this place would be hard. There is very little explanation, instead relying on the tvs or other around you to demonstrate your move. There is also rarely any correction to moves or recommendations for weights. No warm up so you use the beginning of the 35 minute workout as a warm up. 

That said I like the cardio just built in with the bikes. It’s a fast work out and they offer a lot of times which is great. Stretching and cool down at the end which is important. Again, the staff is so kind, positive, motivational, and encouraging during classes. There truly are all ages, body sizes, and fitnesses here so it’s a very welcoming gym.

### 5/5 — I love it here

*2025-11-03, version 3.2.0*

As a former division I athlete, I have a NEED for competition, intensity, and heavy weights. Basecamp is the only place where I can workout and give maximal effort every single day. My body/muscle type needs cardio, but without the pounding & impact on my joints like a treadmill. I’m able to stay consistent for longer, because I get proper strength training. I’m building muscle and reducing my risk of injury 👍🏻 what could be better than that?

### 5/5 — Home Away from Home

*2025-06-26, version 3.1.2*

I love everything about Basecamp. The people, workouts, and structure. I look forward to going and I’m sad when I leave. 💪🏻

### 5/5 — Strength and cardio

*2025-03-04, version 3.0.6*

A total body workout in 45 minutes. Perfect for every day and it never gets boring!

### 5/5 — Love Basecamp

*2025-02-02, version 2.11.6*

Basecamp is a great and efficient place to get workouts in. Highly recommend!

### 5/5 — Basecamp4Life

*2025-01-31, version 2.11.6*

Great atmosphere to be around, very friendly and welcoming.  Will not allow you to give up as long as you keep pushing.  Love the atmosphere and team.

### 5/5 — Basecamp El Paso TX.

*2025-01-18, version 2.11.6*

Well Done Monica and Laura

### 5/5 — Lisa

*2025-01-11, version 2.11.6*

I love this place! The staff makes me feel like I am their best friend! They are so processional and fantastic coaches!

### 5/5 — So fun!

*2025-01-10, version 2.11.6*

I’ve done HIIT workouts before, this is soo fun, fast moving and efficient!

I’ve followed these owners and trainers to Anytime in Cliffside and now here, too! 

I learned how to do Burpees from Marquise and Brian! It’s not always pretty… but I can do it! 

It has thoughtful amenities and a great vibe. 

The studio is unbelievably clean — much more than another gym in town. 

Check it out!!

### 5/5 — Love the App

*2025-01-10, version 2.11.6*

App is great.
