I hope they fix it in the next update. Also more exercises would be good. Thrusters not being included is a massive oversight ### 2/5 — Need to be able to rearrange workout in program *2025-08-01, version 2.5.9* As learning grows you want to add more workouts and rearrange existing workouts - there is no easy way to do this. ### 4/5 — Eigentlich ganz gut *2023-01-05* Ich bin sehr zufrieden mit der App, leider wird seit einiger Zeit das Training (die Kalorien) nicht mehr in die Health App oder Aktivität übernommen. Wäre toll wenn das behoben werden könnte. Die Zeit wird merkwürdiger Weise aber ausgewiesen. ### 3/5 — Tolle App nur… *2022-01-09* Ich würde der App 5 Sterne geben, jedoch fehlen mir 3 wichtige Dinge. 1. mehr Übungen, von mir aus als extra Kauf! 2. einzelne Übungen bestimmen wie oft Wiederholungen folgen sollten. 3. Größe und Gewicht eintragen um genaue Verbrannte Kalorien berechnen zu können. Dann gibts auch fie 5Sterne ### 2/5 — OK but not good enough for a paid app *2021-06-01, version 2.5.9* Too many exercises some of which even Stark himself discouraged to do (e.g Halos, Triceps press see his YouTube). At the same time there is not such a staple as Clean and Press. The app by default opens on the list of exercises rather than your own programs. So if you want to exercise which you probably do more than designing them, you have to extra click. At the same time there is another huge button for “buy more apps” You can’t pre program intervals, you can only do it when you start exercise. You can’t mix in the same group (eg Day 1) exercise with number of repetitions and interval exercise. E.g. 10 Swings with each arm and then 2 minutes of Snatch each arm. You can’t easily program ladders (great for C&P that is missing). Yes it saves calories into Health app but not sure how accurate it can be when it doesn’t know you heat rate or even how heavy is the bell. You can have iPad version but programs will not sync so you will have to recreate it. And there are minor annoyances such as you can’t delete grouping within program (defaulting to Day 1) unless you add exercises and then only there is delete option appears. ### 2/5 — Weak for a Strength App *2021-05-02, version 2.5.8* 1. iPad app does not seem to sync to Health. Support email has gone unanswered for most of a week. 2. I don’t see a wiki, FAQ or other such help available. The app has not been updated in two years. 3. Building workouts is difficult and it seems, not very flexible. For example, one can’t choose different number of sets. For example, If I want to do three sets of swings but three sets of cleans on each side in the same workout, I can not. I have to pick either 3 or 6. And the same goes for rest and duration. Turkish Get-ups take longer to do than a Press, but you can only set one duration for all of the exercises within a workout. 4. You can’t record the actual number of reps done. It always assumes you have done whatever was preset and not the actual. On the plus side, the videos show better technique than many other apps and the library is good. ### 2/5 — Ripped off *2020-09-10, version 2.5.8* It got deleted from my phone and I had to pay to get it back ### 4/5 — Gut aber verbesserungswürdig *2020-08-14* Es ist sicher eine ganz gute App, allerdings fehlen mir hier einige Übungen/Kombinationsübungen. Beim Zusammenstellen des individuellen Trainings wäre es sehr hilfreich, wenn man jede Übung für sich mit unterschiedlichen Wiederholungen und Sätzen versehen könnte. So ist man gezwungen alle Übungen mit gleicher Wiederholung und der Anzahl an Sätzen etc. zu absolvieren. ### 2/5 — Not enough prebuilt workouts *2020-08-03, version 2.5.8* App is quite good but there are only 2 prebuilt workouts. IMO should be at least 10. ### 4/5 — Terrible. *2020-05-12, version 2.5.8* This isn’t worth 99p let alone 4.99. Only 2 workouts on this app, wish I could get a refund. ### 4/5 — Really good almost perfect *2020-04-19, version 2.5.8* Only issue can’t build complex movements. Other than that simple to work and effective. ### 4/5 — Good app to get you started *2019-10-23, version 2.5.8* I am enjoying using this app - I’ve done kettlebells before but I needed some motivation to start up again. I especially like to video demonstration that plays alongside the programme. Good value ! A one-off payment is all you need ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Great until latest update *2026-07-01, version 3.0.6* Great until latest update. Now when pressing start to start the workout , the workout the app immediately completes the workout showing the “done” button. ### 1/5 — Broken after update *2026-06-24, version 3.0.6* I liked this app so much, control over exercises and time. The last update has broken integration with health and other fitness apps. COMPLETELY BROKEN ( and yes I have checked permissions). Now completely useless for health tracking so I no longer use it😭😭 ### 1/5 — Keeps crashing!! *2026-06-10, version 3.0.6* I have used this app for a long time. Recently, it will not work at all. I have uninstalled it, reinstalled it, reset network settings, powered my phone down and back up again… Nothing works. It starts and ends the workouts at the same time! Please help. I rely on this app!! ### 1/5 — nix geht mehr *2026-06-02* Nach dem letzten Update ist es nicht mehr möglich ein Training durchzuführen. Die App startet und beendet sofort das Training. Schön das Sie mir zum erfolgreichen Training gratuliert welches nicht stattgefunden hat! ### 1/5 — Horrible App *2026-05-05, version 3.0.3* It was great for a few years, and I really enjoyed it until recent update deleted all of my saved workouts, and now you can’t even see the exercise being performed so you have to memorize your routine whereas you used to be shown in the app, now there is a lag time in three interruptions per set in music. Hero to zero. ### 1/5 — App features very lacking *2026-03-27, version 2.5.9* Just purchased this app and was hoping for a bit more. There is only one prebuilt workout and what’s in the build your own, it seems to have very little to offer. All in all not that great. Thankfully it was only 6.00 bucks. ### 1/5 — Clunky interface *2025-08-17, version 2.5.9* Superb for the variety of kettlebell exercises. Unintuitive interface, difficult to use routines, hopeless as an exercise recorder ### 1/5 — Don’t buy!!! Scam *2022-10-14, version 2.5.9* Videos won’t download. I spent 4.99 To not be able to view it unusable There must be a bug because it used to work!!!!! If it doesn’t work I need a refund ### 1/5 — Barely anything on this app! *2020-06-22, version 2.5.8* Barely anything on this app! Complete waste of £5. ### 1/5 — App stürzt jedes! JEDES Mal ab! *2019-08-20* Kann mir das mal einer erklären? Eine App , die 6€ kostet, sollte laufen und nicht permanent abstürzen- egal, ob ich ein Training erstellen möchte oder auch nur Übungen hinzufüge! Habe mir die App gekauft um mit einem Kettleball trainieren zu gehen, nicht um mich unnötig aufregen zu müssen! iOS iPhone 8+, iOS neueste Version. Wo kann man sein Geld zurück verlangen?! ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Ton *2026-05-31* Ich würde die App gerne weiterhin lautlos nutzen. Nach dem Update sind einige Übungen nicht stummzuschalten. Volume am iPad auf 0. Trotzdem volle Lautstärke bei zum Beispiel Squad to High pull und anderen. Ansonsten gefällt mir die App immer noch gut. ### 5/5 — Update *2026-05-22, version 3.0.6* Newest updates has inverted all my pre-built workouts. ### 5/5 — 운동에 도움이 많이 됩니다. *2022-02-08* 케틀벨 하나는 ### 5/5 — Updated software *2021-05-20, version 2.5.9* Thank you for keeping your apple software up to date ### 5/5 — Great app, add more pre built workouts *2021-05-17, version 2.5.9* Love the app but needs more than two pre built workouts. ### 5/5 — Great app, getting me back in shape. *2021-01-18, version 2.5.8* Go ### 5/5 — Simple yet challenging *2019-10-10, version 2.5.8* What I love about this is its simplicity. All you need! Thank you! ### 5/5 — Super App *2019-08-28* Sehr gute App, flexibel gestaltbar ### 5/5 — I love kettlebell with this App (HIIT). *2019-02-09* Super. ### 5/5 — pacesetter *2019-01-08, version 2.5.4* love this app. the videos help with form and pace. I haven’t found anything as close as to effective for me! --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
