1 Month In & Never Looking Back

I didn’t realize how bad my shoulder and upper mobility was till I started to do oly lifts. I literally could barely get the bar over my head and squatted forward. It’s been a month and I’ve progressed so much! I loved that this app is catered to your individual needs… both mobility and what you’re working on that specific day. It’s very motivating to take a test and track how you progress over time. I was less sore after working out (and now more sore from being able to progress to larger weights in my oly lifts). I have recommended this app to everyone I lift with. As a beginner I would have never had any idea what to do to help. I checked out some of the larger books on mobility, however, really just need to have this on my home screen. I have two toddlers and I’ve also noticed a ton of difference in daily movements and my back feels so much better since getting more flexible. Thanks for the awesome app! It blows the other app out of the water that’s the main competitor.

Hi, thank you so much for your feedback! We are delighted that you like the application and that you can see the benefits and progress on a daily basis.

Great app overall

Love this app overall and I’m really glad you added challenges as it helps promote consistency, or at the very least getting a certain amount of mobility work in.

Perhaps other users dictated the change, but I much preferred the smaller, segmented picker for selecting time when going to a specific movement/stretch in library.

I would LOVE if you could move the Favorites scrollview to another spot. Perhaps, to the right of “Protocols” and “Library” in that segmented picker? Then allow a similar list view as is shown in the exercise list with the smaller pictures. Having more than a few favorites is maybe not the intent, but even like 10 can feel quite cumbersome to scroll across to get to one at the end of the line.

Thank you for your feedback!

We are taking them all into consideration and will discuss them at the next R&D meeting.
About the favorites, that's a good idea ;)

Incredibly Helpful

I am the type that follows programs well. I like structure and someone to tell me what to do. In the mobility world there are just so many videos, opinions, and of course professionals. This app is the perfect balance. It does an assessment and builds a program specifically for you with assessment points every 30 days. I found that areas I thought were the weakness were not, at all. I thought my hips were the problem and this tool clearly identified my shoulders and overhead reach as issues. And after doing some of the program, man was it right. Worth every penny. I do 15 minutes every day.
