Exactly What I Needed to Start Running Again
I found Push Training on TikTok and figured I’d give it a shot. I’m a former 5K-er getting back into running after a loooong post-Covid break, and it’s been a surprisingly good fit! The workouts are beginner-friendly without putting me in the kiddie lane, and the pacing cues keep me from slacking off while also not feeling too overwhelmed.
There’s also an Ask Push feature where you can pop in after a workout and say, “I just finished ___ workout. What do you recommend next?” It’s simple but super helpful when you don’t feel like thinking.
I’d love to see versions for the elliptical and stair machine because this format would translate perfectly. Overall, it’s been an easy, no-drama way to get back into a running groove.

Wow
I had low expectations for this app! But I’m blown away this is just what I needed. Its fun but just hard enough I feel empowered and exhausted but all in best way. If you need motivation and want a real push download it! I’m so glad I did.
App
Great app so far
.
Looks like a decent app but why oh why do apps not tell you before you go through all the malarky of age weight etc that it’s a paid app. A seven day free trail isn’t long enough.
I no longer refer to it as the “dreadmill”!
I’m a trail runner. You can’t beat running countryside trails in the fresh air. But for those times when you’re stretched for time, the weather is not co-operative or it’s dark outside, NOTHING beats this app in terms of motivation and variety! I’m a house music junkie and the EDM music on here is BANGIN’!! I’m forever singing the tunes from the app, wondering how I know them and then realising. If I could download them (for a fee!) as a mix to play at other times, I totally would! The app itself has a large variety of interval training workouts, with varying inclines and duration. They are customised to work around your best speed, as well as the time you have to workout. You can even commit to a weekly training schedule based on your goals- be they speed, endurance or whatever. I love this app so much! For me the trails will always be favourite - but this is definitely the best you can get on a treadmill!

It’s better than the rest!
My first two experiences were great! I have used other treadmill /running/race training apps in the past, so my expectations were not to expect anything different from the rest! Boy, was I wrong….. I look forward to my sessions! Wish I started using it immediately after my friend shared it. So yes, the wheel can be reinvented after all!

Love this app
This app has completely transformed my running routine. It helps me plan my runs on a day to day basis and pushes me to stay consistent, which has made a great difference in my fitness journey.
Meh
If you’ve ever wondered what it’s like to be a bystander during a bank heist and the robber is bossing you around, that’s the voice of the coach. It was really off putting and I had to turn it off. The app was alright after that but it just didn’t really do it for me.

Super app making me do a workout everyday because I like it so much
Poor app
I had cancelled this and they are still trying to charge my card.
Excellent
Just what I need.
10/10 recommend for runners at any fitness level!
Love running and want interesting treadmill workouts when you can’t run outside? This app is for you. Hate running but want a good cardio workout that is attainable and encouraging? This app is for you.
What I love about Push is that it’s made for YOU. Every feature is tailored your needs, whether you are looking for a plan to help you run a half marathon, or if you’re simply looking to embark or continue your health and fitness journey.
There’s a wide variety of treadmill interval workouts ranging from 15 minutes to an hour in length. Believe me, the hour-long ones are NOT boring and completely attainable for anyone!
I 10/10 recommend this app regardless of how “good” you are at running. At the end of the day, it’s all about your personal journey. :-) you’ve got this!

Amazing
I randomly stumbled upon this app and this is exactly what I am looking for exercising on the treadmill. It has awesome intervals and tells me exactly what incline and speed I should be at. It allows me to push myself a lot more than I can on my own. Worth every penny.
Easily the best running app available
I’ve tried a slew of running apps, and this is hands down the best. The workouts are different and keep me interested, which is difficult when I’m slogging away on a treadmill. The music integrates well and the leaderboards are an effective motivator.
The best thing about this app, however, is the developer. He really cares about the user experience and listens to feedback and incorporates feedback/features (when possible) into the app, which you don’t find much these days. Highly recommend this for any runner!

This is the one!
If you are looking for the perfect interval training program for the treadmill then look no further! I have tried so many different apps and Push Training is by far the best. The AI integration is flawless and the way the speeds and inclines are worked out is spot on. Jacob has done an amazing job with this and you will not be disappointed with it. I look forward to every workout knowing how good it is going to be.

Response from developer
I'm glad you're enjoying the app, and we put a lot of time into testing those speeds and inclines to make sure they are just right for everyone! Thank you for taking the time to share such a nice review. As always, reach out anytime! jacob@pushtrainingapp.com
Needs more variety
Pros: workouts are tailored to your fitness level, the price is right, you can see the workout breakdown ahead of time
Cons: I couldn’t find a way to connect to Amazon music, trainer was very robotic, and workouts seem to be only interval/HIIT which is in the description but I need more variety

I am possibly Jacob's worse (or best) critic depending on how you look at it. I am a Personal Trainer and in my previous career I worked as a UX Designer so it takes a lot for a fitness app to impress me.
Push Training is AMAZING! My mind is blown. I was looking for an app with treadmill programmes for me to follow that are short but effective, I had hoped for a simple zone training app. However Push Training exceeded my expectation. The app is inituitive, nice simple colour changing display screen, the voice over and music is motivating and the workouts are challenging.
If I can suggest 2 improvements to make, it would be to use chart music (however I do understand the cost of music licensing) and it would be great to have an actual workout which is a PB test that also automatically adjust your PB setting. I will recommend this app to all my clients!

Highly recommend!!!
This is one of my favorite apps! I used to not know what workouts to do on the treadmill and I was starting to get nervous now that it’s getting cooler outside…but then I got Push!! I am not worried about working out this winter at all anymore because I know this will help me stay in shape!
THE BEST
Push Training app is THE BEST!!!! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 Recently, I got a new treadmill that came with iFit. While I like iFit, and it’s fun, I find myself coming back over and over again to Push Training app to get a really good workout in! 💪🏻 iFit is good, but I don’t think it challenges me enough. Push literally pushes me to my limits and I love it! 👍🏻👍🏻 Also, even if I want a relaxing run, Push has it! It has it all!!!! ❤️ Thanks, again, for such a good app!! ☺️
