Workout Planner & Gym Tracker‪.‬ 4+

This is a great app. I love the plans so far and it’s kept me motivated. Love seeing the progress in terms of what has been lifted. I feel like this is well worth the money and I love it. It could be even better though. I came from GymStreak where the exercises could be swapped out for a huge range of alternatives that targeted the same muscle groups. I don’t actually want that much choice, but in some cases it feels like there could / should be more. As someone with a back injury too, I often want to be able to avoid certain types of axial load and use machines etc instead. But as said, many times the app won’t allow you to select a machine version even though it’s in the database. Another niggle is that the suggestions of incremental weight are sometimes impossible with the equipment. A feature that could be cool is to see some sort of benchmark for the exercises too based on your physical profile. It’s great to see your progression vs where you started but it’s nice to have a target sometimes. This stuff can be found online but why not have the ultimate gym app ever?! This might just be me but I also find it confusing that it doesn’t state whether single exercises are supposed to be reps per side or total reps /2. I’ve been assuming per side.

I don’t leave reviews and what I’m gonna say about this app will make me seem like a planted reviewer praising it for more downloads but I’ve been training for nearly a year building muscle and I can’t say my gains aren’t thanks to the training programs I’ve followed using “workout”
I’ve even been asked if I'm juicing so whether that’s down to genetics, this app or both either way, it’s been my motivation to push myself.
If any advice for anyone using it and not seeing results I'm gonna say this. Strictly follow the program! Don’t go all in ignore weight suggestions and not doing your deload week! Do correct form and execute all exercises and sets and be consistent! But most importantly on your peak weeks, push yourself till your are destroyed! You’ll get there. Also remember the app is not your dietitian. You need to eat strictly healthy nutritionist foods, surplus for building muscle and deficit for shredding and figure out your macros or you won’t see sufficient progress.

Summary here is essentially do everything outside the app needed to get in shape and use it to see it work wonders!

I don’t usually write reviews! Actually this is my first, but I felt I had too! Firstly please don’t b sucked in by the high number of five stars, this is because the app gives u the option to award it five stars. It’s also because to b fair, it’s a good app. It’s easy to use and navigate and the pics and video tutorials are on point! However, it’s ease of use is a little disconcerting because the reason it’s easy to use is because the content is slightly limited. This is especially because if u are a typical gym goer, who would use this type of app to record and monitor your progress, then it’s very likely you’re going to the gym 4+ days per week. And then when u select a four day routine you find out it’s just a two day routine done twice you become very disappointed, especially after forking out almost £50! The meal plans I also believe need more work... are they plans or just different types of diets?? Where’s the Mass Gaining diet plan?? Where’s the meal tracker and calorie tracker? Why can’t this all be in one app?? Where’s the monitor for sizes?? Why only measure weight? Why not have a picture of a body and actual measurements and then plot the progress of say your waist or arms or whatever! It’s not good enough for the money folks. I’m sorry to say this but u guys really need to up your game and add some serious updates.
