Muscle Booster

First off, I’d like to say that as I’d gotten older I didn’t really care to work out much. I’d gotten so sedentary that my mind would tell me I needed to do something but my body just wouldn’t respond. What changed for me was I lost of my unexpectedly last year and it just made me have this sense of urgency to change my ways. I initially started using Muscle Booster as a way to cope and get my mind off the loss. Then it became therapeutic for me along with walking 4 days a week. I must say that I’ve enjoyed it for more than I ever thought. I use the walking/steps feature, the chair workouts, and also the Home Strength exercises. All of this has been life changing for me and I’ve really been dedicated to continuing it because it has tremendous health benefits (I’m diabetic) and I’ve also changed my eating habits for well over a year now. I have recommended this to quite a few people already. The workout start from beginner, to intermediate, to difficult and range from anywhere to 7-10 minutes depending on the workout regime. You burn quite a few calories doing them and just get an overall good workout. It also has reminder features to help motivate you to work out and remind when it’s time to do so. Overall my experience with it has been great.

A few frustrating gotchas

I never buy apps but I wanted to get a workout routine that was tuned to me and would progress as I do. I loved this app in the beginning, my muscles are more sore than any other workout I have done in the past. I’m a week in and my triceps are at their max so I figured my routine would move into my legs or abs, but it kept having me repeat the chest and arm strengthening. I found out today that the app is not tracking my progress, it doesn’t think I have been working out all week. For those that this is happening to, the developer requires you to hit the share button at the end of the workout to track that you completed it. This is annoying, I didn’t plan on posting to Facebook my workouts, the developer is trying to get free advertisement for a paid app. They need to add an option at the end to share or mark the workout complete. The good news is you can click on the share button, but cancel the actual Facebook post. This will mark your routine done but keep it private. I’m going to try that until my subscription is up and look for another app. Also, like others mention, the “contact us” button doesn’t work. I’m very suspicious of the integrity of this app. The workout have been great though so I hope they make some improvements. This app is too pricey for it not to “requires” free advertisement to Facebook. No one wants to see me post everyday I performed a daily routine for 7 minutes, how annoying I would be 😀

Transforming your body!

I’m just now starting the program. I just did my first morning session. It’s too early to say how I really feel about it. But I do like what I see so far of what the program offers. I am a pro athlete, a professional fighter. I’m so used to cutting weight and being ripped up for my next fight. Now I would like to focus on building up more muscles for my chest and legs. I fight as a junior middleweight and always have to cut weight for my fight, and most of the weight is water weight. So when I saw this program, I said to myself wow! they have everything you need to transform your physique to what you wanted to look like. I am also a trainer and have my own boxing gym, I say this app is good for everyone who wants to look good and get rid of the same fat that they carried around for so long. If you don’t know what to eat, they have a meal plan set up for you and his program. They tell you what the ingredients are. They also tell you how to go about cooking it. I recommend this app to any trainer and anyone who wants to transform their physique and look good about it!

Starts Strong

I love this app. It provides a great workout routine that supplements my own. I felt immediate results and have seen them is a little as five days. I hope to continue on with the app, but that’s where I’ve run into trouble.

A glitch in one of the routines caused it to repeatedly crash on that routine. I decided to skip to the next day’s return until it could be resolved. The routine worked but wouldn’t log as compete. I tried various fixes like powering off the phone, etc. Then I tried to log back on … and the app would not let me log in, reset my password, or restore purchase (I tried them all). I was effectively locked out and my support inquiries all bounced back in email, indicating no one was likely to help. So, I decided to subscribe again until everything was resolved - but the app said my Apple email was invalid, after charging the subscription. I had to use a different email in order to make it work… so who knows what will happen in 90 days.

I was ready to refer this one to friends and my trainer, but now I’m holding off until these basic functions - email resets, restores, etc. are cleaned up. This should be a five star workout support program, but I have to give it a free until basic support and customer service are part of the package.

Long-Time User, Still Impressed!

I've been using this workout app for years, and it's honestly been a fantastic journey. The app's design is user-friendly, and the variety of workouts keeps my routine fresh and exciting. What stands out the most is the value for money – the price is incredibly reasonable for the features offered. From beginner to advanced levels, it has something for everyone. The community aspect is a bonus, keeping me motivated and connected. I'd easily rate it 5 stars for its consistent quality and the positive impact it's had on my fitness journey.

Frustrating Technical Issues Lately

I've been a loyal user of this workout app for a long time, and while it's been great overall, I've encountered some persistent issues recently. The most troubling is the loss of video functionality, which is crucial for following along with workouts. The sound occasionally malfunctions, and now it seems the audio feature has completely disappeared. These technical glitches significantly hinder my workout experience. Moreover, the app feels outdated and in dire need of an update to keep up with current standards. It's disappointing to see a previously 5-star app decline like this.

Thank you for your continued support and valuable feedback. We apologize for the technical issues you've been experiencing with the video and audio functionality. We are actively working on a solution to improve your workout experience. We appreciate your patience and understanding.

Decent so far but doesn’t track all workouts

I just started using this app. Paid for a month subscription just to try it out. I already work out every day but wanted something to help guide me and mix up my routine. They put together your fitness plan based on a series of questions. This is great. Like the ones I’ve done so far.

However, it is really annoying that it only tracks and records your workout history if you do the exact workout in their plan in the exact day they schedule it. For instance. I did the Monday workout as scheduled and it was recorded. Tuesday they had a rest day but I workout every day so I skipped ahead to Wednesday and did that workout. It didn’t record it in my workout history because it wasn’t done when they scheduled it. Today is Wednesday and I obviously didn’t want to do the same thing twice in a row so I chose one of the workouts listed in the app. Again, because it want their scheduled and planned routine, it doesn’t record it. Three days of pretty solid workouts and the progress only recorded one workout in Monday. Not sure why they would create a fitness app intended to guide you and record progress, not actually record your progress. Only 3 stars because of this. But routines are decent.

Update for the worse

Notwithstanding developers’ reneging on a promise to extend my subscription for 6 months, as compensation for participation in a product survey, I find that the recent update introduced so many new but mostly effortless body weight exercises into the routines that I no longer find the workouts challenging. Before the update, I would break a good sweat, and occasionally worked to muscle failure. After the update, I barely got warm. Additionally, the app now ignores your setting for workout duration. I set it for 20 minutes; before, my workouts would be programmed for between 20 and 30 minutes. After, I received workouts programmed for 40-49 minutes.
Yes, graphics are nice, and the ability to change any particular exercise gives nice workout flexibility, and the 7 minute morning routine was a great way to warm up for my cardio days, or to top up the strength day with a quick workout, but I have now found a different app to challenge me.
And don’t bother with the menu recommendations unless you are a chef with a huge ingredient inventory. They don’t give you a shopping list for the week so you can have what you need on hand to make the meals.
And LOL epic fail when using AI to voice the exercise names: “push U.P.S.” (not “push-ups”).
You can find a better workout planner.

This app has been made to prey on the insecurities of males

Asked me for my body type and my desired look which is standard in a muscle building app but doesn’t have any real way of helping a person determine their actual body type. If I were to have more weight on me then I can’t determine how much muscle is underneath or even if I’m “skinny, muscled, or heavily muscled”. It doesn’t allow for me to type in my height, weight or anything that are needed to help determine which workouts will better sure my interests. The “get started” screen is a picture or a heavily cut man more standing like a egotistical model rather than a man modeling his physique. After picking my body type the app went to the target my weaknesses rather than my strengths. They call them “problem areas” :wimpy pecs, skinny arms, small legs. Connotations like that are unnecessary and not user friendly for someone trying to improve themselves. This app has been made to prey on the insecurities of males and push the typical negative agenda of what the mainstream media calls the “perfect male physique”. I don’t think there is any changes to be made to make this app better. I’d say throw it out and start from scratch. There are so many other apps out there. This one is a dud not needed in the lives of people trying to become more. Thank you for giving me the ability to rate this app.

Great presentation - has potential!

I’m on day 102 of a 120 day plan, and just received an update that added more exercises. The variety and presentation of exercises is great, but it acts more like a random exercise generator based on parameters you set, rather than using the feedback you give (too easy/too hard, like/don’t like). The feedback applies to the whole exercise - there us no way to give feedback on certain exercises. It often repeats exercises to the same muscle group more than it should e.g. 3 different push-up types in a set repeated 3 times, and then 2 more push-up types in the next set repeated 2 times! Telling the program it’s too hard and don’t like doesn’t seem to make a difference. Audio voice sometimes calls out the name of the next exercise but usually it doesn’t. It would be great if it always called out the next exercise so you don’t have to look at the screen after each. The program should be collecting lots of data, but there is no way to access it. It should provide progress charts. I payed for a year in advance. I’ll use it for the rest of the year and see if future improvements make it worth keeping.
