User reviews

Super easy and fun

Very easy to use but so many features to help you get fit. Love the daily motivations and all of the different custom workouts.

Top Fitness Plan

The coaches and team behind the Dad Unit really understand the science behind working out and nutrition. The app, plans, challenges, and psychology behind their games/features show this. If you’re experienced and where you want to be, you will greatly benefit from the app. If you’re not where you want to be, I recommend personalized coaching or going through their selection program (you’ll still use the app). Unfortunately there are no shortcuts or a magical apps, but the right coaching and the science backed program that DU has will help you focus on incrementally showing up and doing the right things. In just a few months you’ll have unbelievable results.

LIFE CHANGINF

The competition aspect of this app and program is so unique and addicting. Being on a team to not only encourage but to compete against others will get you creating habits and doing the hard thing. I lost 10 pounds in 6 weeks. I feel great and have created solid habits. 10/10 recommend💪

This app changed getting healthy for me.

This app helped me get in better shape, it helped me eat right, exercise and work out without feeling like I didn’t know I was doing. I would recommend this to anyone that is looking to get healthy and fit!
