ATG is personal training reinvented. We coach your form every workout helping you achieve results whether that means getting out of chronic pain or reaching new levels of performance. Follow the exact program of Ben Patrick (A.K.A Knees Over Toes Guy) whose knee problems started at age 9. By 18 he had 3 surgical knee alterations and had to quit basketball altogether. In his 20’s he cracked the code to exercise and started transforming himself from a weak and fragile athlete to a bulletproof freak, more than doubling his vertical. What you get with this app - Try out a free workout and get feedback on your form from a real coach - Weekly program that targets all your weakest links - Exercises that have “regressions” and “progressions” allowing 80 year olds and pro athletes to make progress - 24/7 access to message a coach and responses under 24 hours. - Ability to track and monitor your strength and mobility gains overtime - Full library of ever expanding articles so you can understand the “why” behind ATG exercises. - Detailed exercise videos showing exactly how to perform each movement ATG membership is a month-to-month subscription that begins at signup.

Welcome to the FIRST and ONLY Exercise app that combines Education, Assessment, and Great Workouts! I'm Dr. Steve Horney PT, DPT, CSCS an NYU Exercise Science Professor in the world renowned Physical Therapy Department. Thanks for checking out my FiRE App :) The FiRE app will take you through a Physical Assessment and then tailor Corrective Exercises to you that are built right into your Workout. Each time you open the app you will get 60 seconds of Education directly from me, and then we will ask you how much time you want to spend with us. That's it - we will do the rest! We strive for a "Goldilocks" Workout where it's not too easy and not too hard - just right. You have control over every exercise where you can pick either a harder or easier version and if you just let it ride we will slowly and gradually increase the intensity I really hope you enjoy the app, it's my life's work. I see every single comment so if there is something you think it needs or you would prefer, just let me know after the workouts. Enjoy your training that's as High Reward and Low Risk as I could make FiRE: Functional Integrated Resistance Exercise.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: FiRE at none against ATG Online Coaching's 1. FiRE also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.7). ATG Online Coaching's advantage is update cadence (every 11 days vs every 2 months) and ratings volume (219 vs 2). On price, ads, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
