Great for Beginners!

If you’re new to the working out and eating healthy thing like I am this app is amazing! I see a lot of great reviews on here but just wanted to hit on the east of use for people new to living healthy. This app makes it so easy and is extremely handy when it comes to all things tracking. It makes tracking your reps and weights so easy and I love how you can see what you did for weights the last time you did the workout. Without having to search somewhere else for it. It’s right there below where you’re going to enter your current workout in for the day. Amazingly simple and time saving, yet so many other apps and plans get this so wrong. Premium is the way to go too if you are looking to track your food. For someone who is overwhelmed by everything nutrition like myself, just use this app for a week and I promise you, you will be a novice in nutrition without even realizing it. This app truly makes it so easy, and the educational pieces are awesome too! I downloaded the app right before starting my transphormation challenge, thinking “oh I can do this on my own and will rarely use it”. Man was I wrong! I’m on this thing all the time! It truly make working out easy! So if your tired of all the other crap out there, or you’re a first timer looking for a way to start a healthy lifestyle, USE THIS APP, it will truly change the way you view tracking your work outs and food! PERFECT FOR 1st TIME USERS!

The best app on my phone

This is way more than an app. The app has a macro tracker function that works really well with a very large preloaded food database and a product barcode scanner that makes macro tracking very simple. You can also manually enter your macro values as well as build and save macro info for your homemade dishes. The app also has a function that allows you to choose between a large amount of strength training programs from beginner to advanced and allows you to track weight and reps for each of your workouts each day. Also it has videos for each exercise of a real person doing that exercise so you can see proper form for each exercise. Not to mention the body metric tracking and trending that can be viewed in graph form over time. Premium Subscription will also get you an adviser to help you on your fitness and lifestyle journey who also shares a ton of knowledge on dietary and fitness topics and you can message questions to anytime. I have lost 60 lbs in 4 months thanks to this app and my dedication and hard work. Most of all I appreciate the fact that this company stands behind everybody learning to live a healthy lifestyle forever vs fad diets and gimmick workouts. Get this app, you will not regret it. #TeamAlpha #1stPhorm.

A good app, but not for everyone

First the good: There are a lot of advisors and from what I could tell they all have the kinds of credentials you should be looking for: Legitimate CPTs and RDs with plenty of experience under their belts. But now the bad: If you’re starting from square one like I was and now still am, there is a case for spending more to work with someone in private practice. The problem is that the advisors are basically captains of teams that have many, many members, and if you’re like me and need somebody who can critique your food logs down to the smallest details and give you 1-to-1 undivided attention…you’ll be disappointed like I was. Support team tried their best to match me up (they’ll do that if you go to their website), but the kind of personalized fit wasn’t there for me because I needed a strict focus on 1-to-1. I guess I’ll have to settle for working with my life coach instead.

MINOR EDIT: I did talk to the team member who suggested I reach out to him, but when I told him what was needed we mutually agreed that it was more than their advisors could reasonably be expected give and I really had no choice but to walk away. I still don’t think it’s a bad concept, hence the middling rating of three stars, but if you have disordered eating problems and no access to a therapist, you’re going to find the advisors here won’t fit your needs.
