### 5/5 — Great app

*2019-01-23*

Would be so much better if it had a walk through of stretches like the exercises. I have no idea how to stretch my abs. Lol

### 5/5 — I like this app!

*2018-11-12*

The app that motivates me to work my abs.

### 5/5 — Tranquilo e gradual

*2018-09-21*

Os exercicios evoluem num ritmo bem tranquilo para quem estava sem condicionamento e a gente se sente progredindo.

### 5/5 — Premium

*2018-09-02*

It looks good, hope I can see some results :) got the premium version so I can have the full program !

### 5/5 — Great app

*2018-04-29*

Just needs less time between workouts...1min 30 secs is a huge waiting time.
Also the “how to do exercises” button is a small inconspicuous question mark at the top the screen, lucky I found it but it needs to be more obvious!

### 5/5 — Great Abs

*2018-03-17*

Easy fun workout it challenges you. I am glad I bought it.

### 5/5 — Fitness 22 rocks

*2017-09-12*

I picked up the bundle with Push-ups, Chin-ups, Sit-ups, Squats, Abs, and Running. I love how they're integrated together tracking the overall progress. Each starts you off at a manageable level and gradually pushed you further.

### 5/5 — Really works

*2017-08-31*

Really works your abs and for sure works you abdominal muscles

### 4/5 — Does what it says!

*2017-08-20*

Did this app while also doing the 0-5k running app and definitely saw a difference in body shape! Not really exercised before but the short sessions made it possible to slot in easily.

### 5/5 — Good app

*2017-08-18*

I recommend. It gets you building up your reps. Great for a beginner.

### 5/5 — Good app

*2017-08-07*

Great for getting back into exercising.

### 5/5 — Great app

*2017-07-09*

Perfect for beginners who want to get in shape! Starts slow!

### 4/5 — For at home

*2017-06-27*

A week with the kids with the wife gone at a camp, I can't leave the house for a run or to go to the gym. This app, along with the others by this company, is good for when you're home locked.

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — I wish there was voice feedback about proper technique

*2019-07-12*

It’s just do 5.

### 1/5 — Not free even when advertised as free.

*2018-09-02*

Got this app while it was listed as “free” and yet there isn’t much training if you don’t pay for premium... Deleted it right away without even using it once, just by seeing this.

### 1/5 — A complete waste of money

*2018-06-15*

I bought this app because I love the Couch to 5k/10k, despite there being many free apps offering the same thing. I expected varied workouts, encouragement, reminder notifications. I didn’t expect four naff exercises, 5 mins of warm up with no actual warm up, a need to keep pressing ‘done it’ rather than just following a count, and zero notifications or way of sticking to the 8 weeks.

### 1/5 — Keeps restarting

*2017-12-16*

The app keeps restarting my workouts when I leave the app, for example to respond to a text. When I return the app doesn’t crash, but restarts. Then I have to remember where I was in the workout and speed through it.

### 1/5 — Wish I could try before buying

*2015-08-20, version 6.0*

Bought this app because I love their 5K runner app. Big disappointment, as it was not sufficiently rigorous... And I needed to pay for it before seeing the top level. Ugh.

### 3/5 — Really too easy

*2017-09-20*

I'm not "fit" but I'm not completely out of shape. I just want to tone up. The app itself works great but the workouts are too easy and don't increase in difficulty even at the end of the 8 weeks. And because of that it really makes the program a once through because even if you wanted to start over after 8 weeks nobody would want to do 5 reps of a workout after they've worked their up. I wish there were different levels of difficulty. I would like to be challenged.

### 3/5 — Not as good as other Fit22 apps, but...

*2017-04-17*

Pull-ups Pro is still their best app, but this one does a great job following the progression model, examples of each exercise, and pacing. Needs a sustainment or advanced module at the end.

### 3/5 — Good app, please fix startup time

*2015-07-10, version 6.0*

The app is good and does what it claims to do. Please improve the startup time, the animation and greeting message negatively impact my experience with this app that is fast otherwise.

### 4/5 — Almost perfect

*2020-09-20*

Iits à great app! To me the only thing it most is to have a stretch tutorial or tell us what to do. All the rest is great and simple! Thx for all your a hard work

### 4/5 — Thank you Fitness22

*2020-05-24, version 8.060*

I’m obsessed with all apps that this company makes. I love this addition to my workout program! I start with my cardio 10K runner app, then do the push ups, great butt, great legs, great abs apps, and end with their yoga app that stretches and relaxes! I understand why some people are frustrated by the timing of this app but I still find it super motivating to track day by day and increase my strength with the programs.

### 5/5 — Great strengthening!

*2021-05-07, version 8.060*

I love these apps (I have great abs, great legs abs great butt) and they all are an excellent workout that gradually builds on your strength.  I often will get a little ways into the workouts and then will fall off the exercise bandwagon (hello, Covid) and hafta get back on and start at the beginning and it is an excellent, slow build and I quickly feel my strength cone back.  I really wish there was a “great arms”workout too because I would get it in a heartbeat!

### 5/5 — Works for me

*2021-01-16*

I’ve found these apps really easy to add to my routine. Great job.

### 5/5 — Good app - very happy

*2020-02-16*

This is one of a series of exercise support apps designed to lead some one who may not be very fit to a decent level, using a graduated and paced schedule. Just follow the instructions and you will see progress - recommended

### 5/5 — Abs workout

*2019-10-24*

Easier start with clear instructions. I enjoyed the workout. Can’t wait for my next routine.

### 5/5 — Great!

*2019-10-08*

The fitness22 apps are the only ones that keep me motivated enough to follow through! I’ve paid much more for other apps that continue to fail. I’ve been using theese apps for 2+ years now and still keep up with the workout!

### 5/5 — Great App

*2019-09-05*

Easy to use. Great exercise diagrams and instructions. Great daily exercise regiments for targeting all the core muscle groups. Great app.

### 5/5 — Great app to help your abs

*2019-08-28*

This app helped me get in shape. I lost 15 lbs running, but then could not loose any more. This app helped me push past that and loose even more weight.

### 5/5 — great app and series

*2019-04-20, version 8.004*

this entire line of apps is great

### 5/5 — Great app

*2019-03-31*

Great app. for both just getting started or back into physical fitness 
I use this app and others to warm up for my runs (both 5 and 10k) 
One nice thing about these apps is you can have a bad day and repeat it later or hold at a workout till you get it rite and still have a solid plan.

### 5/5 — Helpful and Easy

*2019-03-12*

I’m a beginner couldn’t have been better!  Thx
