SHREDDY 4+

Achievable goals

I’ve been using Shreddy for a year. It really eased me back into lifting postpartum and gave me the structure I needed. The programmes are laid out clearly, they’re of a measurable length so it doesn’t seem like a daunting task when you embark on your fitness plan. I’ve done two cycles of the strength program now and I’ve seen huge gains in terms of the weight I can lift which I didn’t think was possible without a 1-2-1 coach. The only thing I wish the app had was a note section for your workout that day so if you’re coming back from illness/injury or period/pms and you’re not lifting the same weights you can make note so when you look back you can be like oh ok here’s why I was lifting less this week etc. overall though superb app. ❤️

Overall Not Great

Aesthetics and visuals completely hit the mark. Layout is intuitive and mostly user friendly. However, app has multiple glitches that are clearly bugs that need addressing. Moving your workout to a different day, even if you’ve completed it, marks it as incomplete. My 8 week challenge has for some reason all switched to ‘Home’ despite me using ‘Gym’. App will randomly quit mid workout and if you have changed a set within your workout e.g. squats to RDLs, it will still show as squats and you will have to manually change it when you re-enter. Challenge workouts and hours don’t save to your profile, only recently do reps. Customising your week and choosing a different workout often leaves an extra rep in each set of the workout marked as ‘0’, with no option to add or remove a set. Challenge also starts on a Tuesday, not a Monday which is off putting. Not many machine friendly workouts available, just leg press really, mostly focused on free weights.

I had this app before, wasn’t a huge fan but came back to it to do the 8 week challenge. Personally won’t be renewing my subscription afterwards as I think the app needs a good bit of work to be less buggy. Huge fan of Shreddy as a company and what they are trying to create in the fitness industry but will continue making my own workouts rather than using this app. The challenge was great for making me feel answerable to something.

Great Content but Really Buggy App

I love the guides so much for giving me some real direction when I’m working out on my own and have really expanded my recipe base using the meal kit so I really do love this app! However I just constantly have problems with it just crashing, not recording properly, some of the functions just plain not working (for e.g. this week when doing a work out the timer on the particular exercise just did not count down and in the same work out wouldn’t allow me to tick off an exercise? Today I tried to reschedule one of the workouts in the diary and when I click the day it loads for a few seconds but nothing happens then and the workout never changes day….

One suggestion for general improvement - it would be great if the app could also send a reminder on the day you have a workout scheduled, otherwise there’s not much point bothering with the calendar function

This is a positive review for using the app I promise just a few glitches that need some developer attention!
