V Shred: Workout & Nutrition 4+

This is a very complete program. I’m getting help with figuring out what to eat and how much to eat. It’s very well-balanced. I am combining it with intermittent fasting, which was my choice because I had already been trying that. I can already see that I haven’t been successful in the past because I’m eating way too many carbs. I like that I have a diet coach who has prepared menus for me after I filled out the survey telling her what I liked. This takes all the guesswork out of it. They have also prepared an exercise plan for me that includes videos of each exercise. Everything is done for me. I just have to follow through and do it. As For motivation, they have a Masterclass that is live on Facebook where everything is explained and you have all the opportunities to ask questions. Having the community of women that are in the same boat as me is very motivating because of all the sharing and advice. The price is so reasonable for everything I’ve gotten so far. I really can hardly believe it, but it’s true.

Thank you so much for sharing your feedback! It's great to hear that you are finding the program helpful and well-balanced. It's wonderful to see that you are combining it with intermittent fasting and already noticing the impact of reducing your carb intake.
The live Masterclass and supportive community are excellent resources for motivation and guidance. We're glad you find the program valuable for the price. Keep up the fantastic work, and feel free to reach out if you need any further assistance or support on your health journey!

My main issue is the diet portion of it. The App should be able to make it more personal, but instead, to do that, I need the old paper and pen. I wish the app could take my stats and show me meal options that work for ME, after determining MY recommended caloric intake. Instead, I have to keep fussing with all the meal options until I find a combo that fits the recommended caloric intake for my stats, which by the way, seems to always come up short of what they are recommending someone like me to eat (And I fall in the middle range). Moreso, it would be great if once the app figured out a meal plan for ME (again, it doesn’t), that the app could then produce a tailored grocery list based on that info. It seems to insinuate that it will, only to find out that section is simply a paragraph telling you to make the grocery list the old fashion way, pen and paper. Really?!?!

And simplify the whole thing guys. Too much info and too much Vince videos.

Lastly, to the tech guys, when I click on a menu item or workout, and then want to get back out of it, it is so easy to hit the back button that takes you back a whole other step rather than just to close out the recipe/exercise (the X or Close button is meant to do that, but it’s not intuitive), I kept doing it and it was sooooo frustrating. Maybe when a recipe is opened up, get rid of that back button, leaving only the X. Bad tech design.

Hi jjjjlau and thanks for your review! We do offer a custom diet plan option, but we've had requests for additional features that allow for more customization! This includes things like a fully integrated custom diet plan with substitutions for foods, meals and exportable grocery lists for easy shopping. We actually have a feature request for this in our backlog. You make a ton of valuable points and I'd love to make sure we address and log each and every single one. Can you please email app-reviews@vshred.com? Thanks! -Bruce

This program is okay. Not amazing if you are already an active person who lifts weights. I filled out the questionnaire that said I was very active and just needed to put on some muscle. But I’m finding that I’m actually doing LESS with this program than I was before and I’ve actually lost a lot of strength. And because it recommended no cardio for me, I have actually put on about three pounds of of mostly fat (my body fat has gone up. To be fair, I haven’t done his diet plan. I think I prefer to going back to a minimal amount of cardio and Not have to starve myself on this diet plan - I don’t believe in dieting anyway.
The other thing I that was annoying is that he said my proiwould contain some intervals and that the program would tell me when to do those. Well, I’ve searched and searched the program and haven’t found a si for one. I’m about half way through the propane other than I think my shoulders are a little bigger, I haven’t seen any gains, I honestly feel worse off. I think this program could be great for a beginner but not for an advanced athlete. Also, the program only contains one leg day the whole weeek with tones of upper body days- no maybe that’s conducive for a man who only cares about the way his upper body looks, but most women need more legs to truly look good and be strong.

We are sorry you feel that way. Good luck on your journey and we hope you find something that works for you.
