Jillian Michaels | Fitness App ٤+

Never had a big problem, guess I’m lucky.

I've had the app since it came out. I've seen it change many times from the purple pink gradient to the basic white and black now. It has added many other trainers, all her previous DVD's, some mediation, at the gym workouts, audio workouts, walk/run, pregnancy programs, meal plans, personal profile and a community to talk to people about your struggles or just encouragement. It has quite a bit.
I dont know the current price plans (im locked in 😏) but she posts discounts every so often on FB. She also posts free circuits on her insta/youtube and advice on certain health stuff if you're into that. As well as a free podcast that kinda just goes with the flow on topics she wants to chat about as well as the occasional health professional on.
What I love most about the app is it's completely customizable and I can use my own music. It has music but I like my own.
The app most certainly has some intense training however, I feel its catered towards the average person. Many of the people in the community only workout with just Jillian (lol no pun intended). Only dedicated people use the app in addition to other exercise avenues. The app is all you need but adding on to it with outside workouts and equipment allows for better or quicker results.

Prefer the video library’s series over workout generator

I’ve been using JM app for over a year. I have been using the Body Revolution DVDs for years over and over so was excited when this app came out. The workout generator concept is great and I did a whole series on the hardest level using the equipment I said I had, but its not as intense as the videos get and it lacks the true motivation you hear from Jillian in the gym videos. I just prefer the more snarky side of her and seeing those other gorgeous bods’ form and interaction, so I hope she keeps making them and doesn’t surrender to the generator.

I will say there is some glitchiness in the app that has frustrated me, which is a reason this isn’t getting five stars. I have sporadically experienced starting a video and then needing to pause it and exit out to my Apple TV settings to connect to my headphones or to double check that I skipped ahead to the right number workout. When I either select the same workout or a different one, the previous workout plays along with the new one. This happens regardless if I kill the app and restart the Apple TV. The only way to move forward is to just let that whole workout play. This has happened on the iPad too. There are times when on the phone and iPad that the app just won’t play to the point that I’ve had to delete the app and reinstall it. I think I was relieved that it kept my history though.

Needs work but pretty amazing

So I’ve been using the app for approximately 2-3 weeks now. I love the workouts! I love that it syncs to Apple Watch without me needing to press workout (sometimes I forget to do that). It was nice that there was a fun message from Jillian when I completed the workout lol. Here are my cons: the app should probably have more individuality to it such as how many days a week do I want to work out and how long I’d like the workouts to be, the iPad app does not sync with iPhone/Apple Watch activity-so I basically didn’t not receive credit for the 45 minute/404 calorie workout I just completed as for as the activity and health app is concerned. As far as the completion message, it’s been the exact same one every day I complete. No one says the exact same thing all the time...even if they did, they would know that I prefer variety (making the “relationship” closer to reality). I wish recipes could be suggested based on different budget ranges but I realize that may be far fetched. And what is up with the 15s alerts...for a 20s exercise. If you’re meaning to give a halfway marker that is off...after 5s of an intense exercise hearing that I still have more than half to go is more discouraging than encouraging.

Overall...if it stayed exactly the same it’s still a great workout app. Focusing on the cons would just make it more comprehensive...making it the best workout app. And who wouldn’t want to be the best?!
