Love everything about this company
This app and training methodology helped me overcome a 15 YEAR plateau of not being able to do a press to handstand. I followed the program consistently (not even perfectly - if I'm being honest I missed a few days) AND GOT MY FIRST EVER PRESS TO HANDSTAND at my first power monkey camp.
Since then, I've returned to doing gymnastics as an adult, learning new skills like a Yurchenko vault and cast to handstand. I'm im even planning to compete in a few months! Love the app, the team, and the methodology. It's been a game changer for my training and mindset, and I'm excited to keep progressing!

Programming that works
I joined power monkey fitness programming for the muscle up learning. To my pleasant surprise the App has so many other gymnastics skill programs. I started the get your first kipping muscle up and about six weeks into training, I achieved my first kipping bar muscle up. I am female, over fifty, and have no gymnastics background. In fact I was never an athlete during my entire life. However I always had a passion to learn gymnastics but did not know how. I strongly recommend this training app. It gives you structure, it is not complicated to follow and it is tailored to your level. I’m so happy and can’t wait to learn all the other gymnastic skills. I will be working on ring muscle up next.

Great app! Easy to use.
I did the HSPU program and I loved how easy the app was to use. It was 8 weeks with 2x/week about 30-40 mins which can be easily done before of after a Crossfit class. A great supplement to your current programming. The programming in the app is very intelligent with all the accessory work. My shoulders feel bulletproof after completing the program!

Great training app
Been using the app to complement CrossFit training to work on gymnastics skills, and I have really enjoyed working through the progressions so far. Already seeing improvements after about six weeks on the Monkey Method shape and core365 courses. Love how there is an assessment at the beginning of each program. Tons of content in the app, I can see myself using this for a long time.

World class coaches and technique
There is truly no more expert coaching on earth than the PowerMonkey team. This crew cares so much about proper technique and athlete safety - I’ve got my handstand push-up and muscle up thru PowerMonkey!
Best in the business and it’s not even close
With the amount of expertise and experience the people at Power Monkey have, it’s no surprise this app and what it offers is the BEST of the BEST.
Everything you need all in one place with programming that fits the needs of every athlete and meets them exactly where they’re at.

Great programs
Love the programs- definitely love the emphasis on form and technique. Will continue to use this app regularly.
Great app and content!
Love using this app as a part of my daily exercise routine! Content is great and tailored to my needs.
Excellent core program
I am a 70 year old woman. I found that the core work was explained step by step so that I could do the exercises at my own speed, without injury. Great instructors!
OBSESSED! 💪
I have been using the App for years, and am OBSESSED. I have gotten stronger, more flexible, and confident in all of my gymnastics movements.
Best Fitness App I’ve Used
Love this app. I am working on the pull up program. Love that it includes mobility. Love that there is an assessment before you start. This makes it more tailored to what my ability is. There is a video with written instructions for every movement even the simplest of movements. This is key to making this helpful to people at all levels.

Great programming!
The programming is fantastic and tailored to your skill level because they do an assessment before you start each program. The one I’m doing now really focuses on positional strength (lots of isometrics and tempos. I’ve been doing the shape foundation program for 9 weeks and I am so much stronger and more mobile than when I started! The app itself is easy to use and not glitchy at all.

Best programming available!
When it comes to CrossFit and gymnastics, there’s a lot of template programming options floating around out there, but nothing as comprehensive and efficient as this one. Highly recommend!
Couldn’t access premium membership
I can’t comment on the quality of the training because I could not access it. I paid for premium access, but the app didn’t allow me to access it. I’d tap “my programs,” then select a program but I’d get nothing but the program description with premium access button at the top. If I tapped the premium access button I’d be taken to a purchase screen which would then tell me I already have premium access. But I could not access the premium content. I tried getting help by tapping the “talk to us” button but it did absolutely nothing. I’m hoping the developers will see this review and give me a refund because I got absolutely nothing for my payment.

Response from developer
Hello! We certainly apologize for the confusion and lack of ability to communicate with us during that process. We recently made a major app update, and it is possible you were in the middle of that transition where things got a little messy. We have since completed those updates and now have several new features including the ability to chat with us directly from the app. Please send us a message to info@powermonkeyfitness.com so we can share more of our app updates we've implemented and ensure you are taken care of and receive access to our programs. Hope to chat with you soon, Team Power Monkey
Vídeos don’t work
Used this awhile ago for handstands. Signed up again and it doesn’t work any longer, the videos will not play. Another reviewer noted the same. Save yourself the trouble and stay away.
The best coaches in fitness
Proper technique keeps injuries down, while helping me get stronger and learn new skills. PMF is the best there is.
good programs, unstable app
My app stopped loading exercise videos. I’ve tried deleting and reinstalling this app a few times. Eventually it stopped working entirely, saying that I need to buy to see programs, however, I already have a continuing subscription. I really hope this problem gets fixed because I really enjoy quality content.

Great instructions and progressions
Easy to follow with well thought out incremental progressions
Fantastic programs
These programs are built by renowned fitness experts who have been in gymnastics, power/Olympic lifting, CrossFit etc. Their programs are easy to follow and work!! Absolutely recommended!
Keep coming back to this.
I tend to chase shining objects when it comes to training plans. Yet, I find myself keep coming back to this app. Great progressions. The only thing I e found that really works for strict muscle ups and handstands.
