No diets, no transformation pictures and no counting calories ~ meet Nobs App, by online personal trainer Lucy Mountain. Lucy was bored of humans being made to feel like they need to follow restrictive meal plans and unsustainable workout plans in order to be doing ‘fitness’. So she called bs on it ~ and took it basics. Nobs App was born. Join the family. Workouts you'll actually enjoy: Science-based 12 week programs designed to build strength, muscle tone and confidence. Whether you’re new to the gym or have been around the block/squat rack - or prefer to train at home with dumbbells or just a backpack, we got you. Oh, and there’s no burpees. Gym Machine Tutorials: Gym anxiety isn't simply resolved by knowing what to do in the gym, it's knowing how to do it. Our database of 10 videos teach you how to use gym machines and equipment. Videos include how to set up a squat rack, how to set up for the hip thrust, using a cable machine, adjusting a gym bench plus much more. Recipes, not meal plans: Calorie counting is a tool but it’s not for everyone. Instead, our nobs-chef has whipped up a batch of easy, no fuss recipes for your body and soul. With over 150+ creations, bookmark your faves to save for later. With options for vegans, pesci and meaty nobs. Daily pep-talks: Personalised affirmations without the cringe to help you stop being such a d*ck to yourself. Health is not just physical, mental health matters.
