Sigh, I’ve never left an app review, but here we are. The app’s user interface is fine, but it automatically signs you up for the most insane barrage of marketing emails. The workouts aren’t for me, but there’s nothing wrong with them. Once I did manage to cancel after trying to navigate the website for awhile (I wasn’t able to unsubscribe through my phone settings), I received an email offering a free month and 20% off (seemed normal) and then another email that started with “Can I tell you something that might sting a little?” It went on to criticize my personal motivation to get fit as a way to springboard a marketing pitch for the GWJ app as the structure that would override my (apparently sub-par) motivation. I’m sure Jo is a lovely person, but this specific email was so off-putting. It came across as unprofessional, rude, and predatory toward women who are genuinely trying to do their best for their health. My motivation and ability to see physical results from exercise aren’t somehow lacking just because this app and style of workout isn’t my cup of tea. If you’re reading this and considering subscribing, just remember: YOU DO NOT NEED ANY ONE APP TO BECOME STRONG. THIS ONE MAY BE GREAT FOR YOU, BUT IT’S OKAY IF IT’S NOT.
