1. 5/5Absolutely Fantastic !!!

   First let me state, I am NOT a competitive powerlifter. But I am a competitive amateur athlete that has made a living as a full-time personal trainer and coach for the last 25 years. This app has everything a serious lifter could ask for to quantify their training. HRV, RHR and other metrics to assess athlete readiness before and RPE during the workout vs. loads, reps and sets; all combine to create an impulse response model to training that is the best I have seen for the gym. You can add your own exercises to your app’s library and the entries are very specific and detailed. You can add velocity accelerometer data that synchs to the app. And this is just scratching the surface. The thought that went into this is simply outstanding. But this app isn’t for everyone. This app is for athletes that value optimizing and quantifying training loads and are students of the craft. It will take about 30 days of entries before the AI in the app becomes helpful and you must enter the data, all of it. If you can’t do that you’re wasting your time. But for the focused and disciplined this app delivers!

2. 5/5Easily the best training app I’ve used

   I really love this app. Quick background, I’m an amateur power lifter who was looking for a program that adjusted for me and was easy to use. I was already familiar with the Sheiko style of programming (focus on the big lifts in the 65%-85% range with frequent training) so gravitate to this app. I’ve used it for two months now. The first month is an observation period where you enter what you’re already doing and it learns from you. Once that is through then it programs for you. It will adjust mid session if things are too hard or too easy so each time you train it’s based off how you are feeling. The app is well done and is really simple to use. Besides giving you your daily training it will track your readiness and fatigue level. It’s simple to use and very intuitive. It’s continually updated and you can tell that the author really cares about it. Highly recommended.

3. 5/5Amazing app and more amazing dev

   This is truly one of the best fitness apps that Ive used and if you are into powerlifting you owe it to yourself to at least give this a shot. Sheiko is one of the few training methodologies I had yet to try and the results so far have been phenomenal. I feel like the app is pushing me just hard enough to make progress but not too hard that I burn out and injure myself. I always leave the gym feeling accomplished. The developer is quite possibly one of the best around. Always active on the Facebook group and pretty much pushing out weekly updates for bug fixes and new features. Really excited to see what else is in store for this app. I don’t see myself going back to training without it any time soon.

4. 5/5Simplify your life - Use this

   This is one of those things that you wish i could have had 10-15 years ago in high school. Having to sit down and manually plan out your lifts takes up a lot of time - and time is money. Unfortunately, anyone who is serious about training beyond marginally better is bound to the need to either hire someone to tell you what to do or to plan it yourself. I ran into this app almost 2 years ago and it’s one of those things that is well thought out to the point where it seamlessly has integrated into my routine. I had some questions along the way but the dev has always been good to respond and explain things. I will say that it’s 10x better with the velocID tracker if you can get your hands on one (they’re hard to come by due to always selling out) Honestly just take the plunge and try it for a few months - the feeling of being able to go into the gym with a good program while not having to consume your schedule with planning is worth it.

5. 5/5(This rating only refers to the initial observation period)

   (This rating only refers to the initial observation period) I purchased the regular Sheiko app way back and used it for nearly 2 years and it produced the greatest strength gains I ever saw. A few years off due to hernia surgeries, motorcycle falls, etc... I thought I’ll try the AI version. During the observation period Boris would chime in to advise load changes, or even give me a complete routine - until today, when I updated the app. Those features have been removed it appears. Otherwise would be 5 stars - the same as the standard version.
