1. 5/5Amazing app by awesome people

   I’ve been using the nutrition app for about 6 months now, and it has helped me in so many ways. So of course, when the same team announced a workout app, I was stoked. I thought I was relatively good in my workouts, and with a custom made workout routine that I was very comfortable with, I was hesitant to try out the app’s workout plan. However, I figured I could give it a try for a week at least, and if I didn’t like it I’d just go back to my old routine. Well, the week is up, and I am absolutely sticking with the app’s plan. Somehow my body is tired in ways that it has never been tired before, but I don’t feel worn out. Does that even make sense? I love the adjustability and the ease of use. All I did was pick a few focus areas, tell it how long I wanted to work out, how many days, and if I preferred full body or split workouts. Boom, workout plan done. It has targeted my selected groups well, while still making sure that the rest of my body is getting trained. I’m doing exercises I’ve never even seen before, but the video tutorials and written explanations make them easy to accomplish. Granted, there are a few minor bugs since the app is still new, but the team behind this app is beyond responsive. If you do download the app, I highly suggest following their Reddit page as well. Any time I’ve had a question I can look it up there, and someone has already asked and gotten an answer. Very excited to see the results I get from this workout app, I’m already pushing myself much harder than ever before!

2. 5/5Best App for Strength Training

   Having used most all the major players over the years such as Strong, Liftin Hevy, , FitBod etc, thankful for them all for helping me our my journey but always saw so much for improvement. When heard MF was brining their design and dev chops and customization to a Workout app backed by incredibly responsive and transparent devs, I was hooked. Have been using their beta and now the final version and truly exceptional. They are some shortcomings for sure but most all will be resolved very soon and the team continues to hammer out fixes and improvements every week making it worth an app that requires a subscription. Not being able to yet import all my years of data from my previous app and no timetable on when that important feature will be added is my only challenge, but so long as it is coming eventually, fully recommend this app for those with existing plans but want the best in class tool to execute them, or for those who want a science backed program generated for them with lots of abilities to customize now, and even more in the future.

3. 4/5Almost perfect

   If I could give a 4 1/2 I would, this app is almost perfect. The only thing that has held me back from a 5 star is just a few things. 1. This app kind of just expects you to understand the fitness world and lingo. I don’t. I didn’t know what RIR meant, so I’ve had to figure something’s out I wish it either explained or if it did, explained better. 2. As you work out and put in your sets it will adjust the reps and weights it wants or recommends you lift, the only issue with this is that it’ll sometimes recommend weights I don’t have, and the app ask you what weights you have. So for example if I do a dumbbell curl for 30 pounds it may suggest my next set be 27.5 pounds, I do not have that kind of dumbbell and I’m not experienced enough to know how to adjust that. I hope in the future it can know what weights you have available and consider that when making adjustments 3. The last thing is that because I am not experienced I do not know all the work outs, it’s recommended me work out it doesn’t have videos of her. I’m sure the app is going to work on doing that across the board and will be fixed. But as of right now having it tell me to do a work out I’ve never done and not being able to show me how to do it is inconvenient. Overall it’s great and if you’re someone who is experienced and understands all the lingo, this app will probably be a 5/5 but as a rookie, it took some adjusting

4. 2/5Lots of current issues, all fixable

   The bad: Generally over engineered, unintuitive. Lacks video examples of women performing exercises. Buggy: have lost multiple workout sessions due to workouts getting stuck and unable to complete. Way too many clicks to just see what I did on an exercise last session. Doesn’t tell me the name of the workout in the history logs. Can’t see actual set logs from dashboard. Appears to use some weird rolling window algo to calculate 1rm instead of discrete logged sets so that even when I lift less with the same weight my 1rm goes up for that session. Doesn’t allow you to change your logged set’s weight or reps without resetting rest timer. Exercise naming conventions are precise but hard to recognize on dash board when cutoff: half my exercises just say “Plate-Loaded…” or “Overhand Grip Pin Loaded…” and never get to the only thing I want to see there which is “Shoulder Press” or “Machine Row”. Can’t search for exercises to add to dashboard, must scroll through everything. Impossible to add two of the same exact workout to a single cycle without duplicating it, resulting in duplicating work when adding/removing exercises from that workout. The time estimates for a workout are wildly inaccurate, completely underselling how long a given workout will take. To make a point I plugged in Jeff’s own “45 minute leg routine” and the app guessed it would take 14 minutes. The good: sleek ui. Easily swap exercises during a session. Easy to add/remove sets or exercises during a session. Extremely wide and precise available exercise selection. Easily see number of sets per muscle per week

5. 4/5Early Review, but impressive so far

   As a long time user of the Macrofactor nutrition app, my expectations were high and have so far been met. Excellent functionality and attention to detail, as with the nutrition app. Currently only utilizing the custom program option. It is fairly intuitive to use, with a very comprehensive movement database from which to choose. Creating a custom movement is a bit clunky relative to Strong or Hevy, but not by much. It easily syncs with other apps and automatically transfers data from the nutrition app. The AI suggestions for added sets are spot on with regard to RIR targets. So far my only (minor) complaints are the inability to create sticky notes that follow custom workouts and are visible on the workout overview screen, and the timer sound is chosen in the “sound and haptics” menu in iOS settings. I would prefer a more aggressive bell like Strong. The reliabilityod the timer sound has also been inconsistent, periodically going silent despite being activated. Minor complaints. Overall loving it. Obviously a meticulously designed app. The lack of sticky notes is key though, its very cumbersome to require opening past sessions to review cues/reminders/notes.
