Outdated app

The strength programs are great, but the app is honestly embarrassingly basic and outdated. There are so many better apps for training… half of their exercises don’t even have images or videos to accompany. It’s clunky, but also overly basic. For how long this app has been around, it’s wild to me how outdated it still is

This is about the app not about the program.

The program is awesome. I’ve seen serious results. This app is atrocious. You have to slowly press your reps and weights. If you hit it too fast the window closes and you have to start over. The timer never works once you open another app. i.e. if you want to change your song. The app functionality HMI is some of the worst I have seen.

Great training programming but terrible app

The training programs are excellent for reaching your training goals. However, the app’s web-based format and terrible connection to its servers make it a kick in the shins to use. Some of the data entered doesn’t save because the app is constantly (90% of the time) stating that there is either no internet connection or that it’s lost connection to the servers.

Hybrid, please improve the stability, platform, server connection, and user interface experience. I know this isn’t your only review about this issue. I would usually not comment on any of these issues, but since this is a subscription-based program, I feel that feedback is vital to the users’ experience with your app.

Lots of bugs & mediocre customer service

Previously a long time hybrid user and fan. Returned recently after a short break and am not liking the app nor how the programs are offered.

You can’t pick your workout days or advance to the next week on your own. If you pay 1 year in advance for the discount you are stuck with that program for an ENTIRE YEAR.

The notes area is very finicky and hard to write in (constantly deletes).

It’s a good price point and the actual workouts are great, I’d just like them to fix the bugs and make it more user friendly.

Decent but some flaws

The programs seem to be effective, however some of the exercises don’t match up with the videos on some warmups/workouts. For example I have lat pulldowns but the video is of a row.

App

The app does not function well

Never loads

When the app actually manages to load I love it. But the app takes forever to load to the point where I don’t even have the time to train what’s scheduled and end up doing my own thing so I can actually get a lift in that day.

It’s loading forever and access my program

Updates are buggy

Every time the app updates it is loaded with bugs. Check your app before heading to the gym to ensure it works. Programming is great but app not so much.

Buena, nada que decir.

Buenismo el equipo de soporte y que puedas quedarte con los entrenamientos cuando dejas de pagar la mensualidad es increíble

Much improved

I like all the improvements so far would be 5 star if there was an audible notification for the end of the rest timer

Notes and timer aren’t great

Timer disappears if you try to look at anything in the app and pauses if you turn off your phone screen. Notes section deletes what I type and sometimes adds it again. Other times I have to type it just for what I previously typed to pop up again. Kind of annoying.

Edit: improvements to the notes and the reps and weight have vastly improved. The timer now stays on when the screen is off. All of my complaints have been addressed and fixed.

Can’t login

App won’t go past login screen

Unable to type in notes

Unable to type in notes w/o having what I already typed being deleted. Please fix! Other than that, love using the app.

Text box keeps trying to auto correct everything before finishing

Will Take money and change products without notice

HWPO training left the app. In a FAQ thread I asked if full refunds were going to be given as my invoice reflects HWPO training and it was switched to HYBRID WOD. My message was removed from the FAQ thread and all my permissions in the Discord removed. Yet another thing that I paid for access to that they took away.

Underwhelmed

While the programming (Body) is sound, it is overpriced. I expected the app to have far more built in features for the price. I’ve seen programs just as great for much less on TrainHeroic and Trainerize. I prefer tracking in a notebook in comparison to this app. Hybrid is great, love the podcasts and content on social media but the app wasn’t nearly as cool.

Epic

Epic amazing workout tool. Great explanations!
Worth the money no matter where you are in your journey from beginner to advanced!

HWPO

Burnt out on programming my own workouts. Needed something light a fire under me and this is 100 percent what I needed!

Great workouts, terrible app

I have been using the HWPO60 program. I like the workouts and design. However the app it not helpful in executing the working efficiently. You are able to enter your PR’s for exercises, but for exercises based on percent of PR the app doesn’t calculate them. Also there isn’t a countdown timer. For example if you are supposed to do strength sets every 2 minutes on the 2 minute mark there should be an Emom timer built in. Also when a new PR is achieved it does not automatically update your PR’s list. I use another app with all of the above features integrated. It is a nuisance to import the workout just so I can follow the program efficiently and track my progress.
