Decent app but no improvements and poor ui
Thank you
Buy the app
World class programs, good App!
Great content
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
Response from developer
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.

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.

Bad app
0 Results not worth it
Response from developer
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!
Yep definitely is broken!
Great Content, App Needs UI Update

Paid for lifetime access. It wasn’t provided.
App needs improvement. Content is great.
If the user experience and interface changes entirely, where things are running smooth for programs and nutrition. This would be a 5/5 but right now I’d give the app itself a 2/5 but the content and knowledge that Joe gives is top tier.
Response from developer
Thank you for the feedback! The app is now running fast and smooth as ever! (we've had a brand new app development team in place since the end of 2024). Hope to see you back soon.
