### 3/5 — Decent app but no improvements and poor ui

*2025-10-16, version 3.9.18*

Hi Joe , I bought the app a long time ago and I’m a lifetime subscriber. I have a few concerns - the ui hasn’t changed a little bit since the release of the app , no new features , no auto increments for weights - reps etc . I understand the target pop for the app might be experienced people but if that’s the case it’s basically limiting the reach of the app to beginners. As a software developer myself I recommend if you can invest some time and money in developing a better ui/ux which is more intuitive and modern. I have tried several other apps which you can try as an inspiration- ladder, juggernaut ai , etc

Thank you

### 5/5 — Buy the app

*2025-10-06, version 3.9.18*

If you don’t have the app what are you doing

### 5/5 — World class programs, good App!

*2025-08-31, version 3.9.18*

The programs are world class on the app. The app itself is good; Joe and his team are always improving it.

### 5/5 — Great content

*2025-04-16*

Updated review:

After Joe changed the developer team, the app seems to be working well and as expected. Joe reached out personally to make sure things were going well and it’s clear that he cares about what he does and the products he puts his name on. He really is a great coach and I’m glad the initial app issues have been sorted out. Cheers

**Developer response:** I’m very sorry for your poor experience.  I take 100% responsibility for it (this is Joe Bennett, the owner). And offer my sincere apologies.  I take your time, money and gains very seriously.  Unfortunately over the course of 2023-24 I had to transition App development teams twice.  I spent tens of thousands of dollars, and hours daily trying to improve the app function, as well as upgrade existing features.  When bringing problems to developers' attention, every month I’d be assured they were fixed.  Only to find those “fixes” either weren't actually fixes at all, and/or temporary bandaids that led to more problems.  And by the time problems would reach me directly, it would be months to get one of these “fixes” done again.  Being the least tech savvy person on the planet, I personally felt helpless being unable to just get in and fix issues.  It created a horrible experience for me (emotionally and financially), and even worse, a less than amazing experience for the members.  Which is even worse. But thank God, as I’m writing this (February 2025) I’ve finally had an AMAZING new team in place for 3 months that has solved problems quickly and permanently, getting the app where it should be.  We can now go weeks at a time without a single support ticket, which is amazing for having thousands of members. And I’m finally able to get back to focusing on my personal mission of creating an epic app to help people put on muscle, look and feel the way they want.  (we’ve added 3 new programs the last 2 months with 3 more on the way). As an additional apology for the poor experience I’d be happy to offer a completely free 3 month membership.  And so you can, risk free, come back and see the improvements we’ve made.  Just email me personally at hypertrophycoach@gmail.com and I’ll get that taken care of asap.  Thank you for your feedback, I wish the experience had been better, but I need to hear this to make the app better moving forward.

### 5/5 — Lost Data

*2025-04-07*

*UPDATE*
I want to thank Joe for reaching out and letting me know the problems have been fixed. This app works great now! The content on this app is top notch. I would like to see more exercises in the video library in the future. 

I created a custom program spanning 12 weeks only to see the exercises within the daily workouts have been changed and then the program itself ultimately got deleted. Very disappointing. I will update this review if support gets back to me and is able to fix this issue.

### 1/5 — Bad app

*2025-04-02*

I read your response to the last person who left a one star review and decided to make the purchase but I had the same issue. After I’d accepted the monthly purchase it froze up and now I never was prompted to create a password so I can’t log in.

### 1/5 — 0 Results not worth it

*2025-01-17*

This coach likes to hear himself talk a lot and every single exercise has a 10minute explanation video which nobody who’s in the gym has a time for. I used this app for over a year, paid for it, got zero results with abundance of food and doing all of his ridiculous banded exercises. No strength gains, no size gains. I switched to RP Hypertrophy and instantly felt the difference. I would never recommend this app to anyone who wants any results. Sorry, just being honest.

**Developer response:** Very sorry I wasn't the right coach for you! Some updates:

The exercise library videos now take you directly to the exercise being performed (if thats all you want to see).  Then for the individuals that want more form feedback (like I'd provide an in-person paying client), they can watch the whole video! 

In addition, I'm sorry you saw zero results.  The programs prescribe training with great from, in close proximity to failure, documenting progressive overload (easily within the app's integrated logbook), with relatively low volume at as high of a frequency as you can recover from.  So I'm sorry that didn't  work for you! It's worked well for thousands of other clients I've worked with, but everyone is different! 

Also, there are approximately 2 exercises within the app recommending bands (out of hundreds of exercises).  Sorry those were not to your liking! You could have easily used the "swap" feature to chose a preferred alternative. 

But I'm glad you're getting your gains somewhere, Keep it up! I can't be perfect for everyone!

### 1/5 — Yep definitely is broken!

*2024-12-25, version 3.9.17*

Paid for the app not working

### 3/5 — Great Content, App Needs UI Update

*2024-11-08*

All of the content in this app is top notch, however I would love for this app to support use on the Apple Watch. I don’t want to bring my phone through the gym, I’d love to track the workouts through the watch but it’s not supported.

### 1/5 — Bad, ripoff

*2024-10-10, version 3.9.17*

Paid 3 different times, each time the app failed and after time said that I didn’t have a membership. The first two times, I received a refund. The last time they ignored me and kept the $249.00.
