HWPO Training encompasses fitness programs created for a community of HARD WORKERS, inspired by 5x CrossFit Games Champion, Mat Fraser’s motto “Hard Work Pays Off”. The HWPO Training app offers a variety of programs to suit different lifestyles, goals, equipment accessibility, and skill levels. Whether you need to be in and out of the gym in 45 minutes or you’re training to be an elite-level competitor, HWPO Training has a workout program for you. Athletes can track their progress using personalized sessions based on individual performance metrics and celebrate their achievements on the real-time leaderboard. The app also provides coaching videos by Mat Fraser himself, as well as our team of world-class expert coaches, guiding members through every training session and providing demos of each exercise. Our HARD WORKERS also gain access to our members-only support platform, where they can ask questions, receive feedback, watch exclusive content and engage with others in the community around the world. No matter how or where you move, all we ask is that you live out our core values in and out of the gym: SHOW UP. Do today what others won’t so tomorrow you can do what others can’t. WORK HARD. Define success for yourself and be relentless in your pursuit of it; it’s about the process. MAKE YOURSELF PROUD. Do things with intention and set an example of HARD WORK for those around you.

Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
HWPO Training holds the better App Store score, 4.9 against 3.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: HWPO Training has 3.3K ratings behind it against 48, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 82% of PushPress Staff's written reviews are positive against 78% of HWPO Training's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
PushPress Staff ships an update every 3 weeks, HWPO Training every 2 weeks. The most recent releases landed on November 4, 2026 and November 3, 2026 respectively.
