This is the one
TLM was recommended to me by my physical therapist as a great alternative to working with a personal trainer and I am so glad I followed up on it. I LOVE this app. For lifting, it meets me where I am, equipment wise (set of dumbbells, resistance bands, and KBs), but can take me further should i decide i want to go there (barbells, etc). The running programs are the first ever that didn’t push me too hard or too fast (hello, Runna), as can be attested by the fact that i have now trained for a half marathon without landing back in the PT’s office. I feel stronger than I’ve ever felt, extremely well-supported by the trainers who check in with me and are available for questions and form checks, and encouraged by the other users who participate in the optional group forums…this is a seriously positive and uplifting group of people.
All that said…there’s a pretty steep learning curve with just figuring out how the app works, where to find resources within it, and generally acclimating to the interface. Probably took me about a month of daily use before I felt like I had the lay of the land. Also, I’m not sure this is a good fit for the complete novice or person interested in a couple moderate workouts/week. There are short (fantastic) technique videos to support every program, and expertly designed training programs for all levels, including beginners…but there are no video classes. This is not the place to go if you’re looking for a fully guided, 30-60min workout video, à la Apple Fitness+ or Peloton.
This is a place to go for science-backed, serious, long term training programs. That’s what I needed and I’m done shopping around.

Fabulous UI and Content
This app is gorgeous! Such an intuitive interface and packed full of so much information. The Lyss Method team did a fabulous job being comprehensive with their materials and programming.
The programming itself is AMAZING! Having floundered trying to incorporate productive cardio into my lifting for years, it’s remarkable how simple this has made it. 100% recommend.

Great programming
Great strength and cardio programming. It’s not the type of app with follow along workout videos, but a well thought out strength program. Coaches are available for discussion of personal goals as well. It’s an amazing app if you’re looking for high quality strength programming without the huge price tag of a personal trainer.

Love LTM!
I’ve been a happy TLM member since 2020 in the days you’d have to set a reminder to sign up because spots were limited.
Since using TLM, I’ve successfully ran my first half marathon in 2021, hiked many miles across the country, started strength training, & built the fitness to say “Yes” to different things in life.
The coaches are super helpful making sure you’re set up with the correct programming & making adjustments if necessary. They’ll also provide form feedback to ensure you’re doing your lifts correctly.
Community spaces allow you to ask questions & get answers for different fitness related things. There’s also a vast list of resources.
If you’re considering TLM, I’d tell you to try it out!
