GymStreak: Workout & Nutrition

First of all I’m not one to review apps but this app honestly deserves it! I’m fairly new to working out and this app has really helped me to find exercises to meet my needs. It lets you customize the workouts and find alternatives. This is super helpful since 1. I don’t want to pay for a gym membership and I can easily switch a workout that requires a machine to something I can easily do in the comfort of my own home. 2. It helps you find exercises that target a certain part of your body that you want to work on and it offers multiple exercises that target that area and again alternatives for someone that is a beginner at working out that are easy yet effective. On top of that it there is a 3D example of how to do the exercise which is a huge bonus again for those of us that are new to working out and learning these exercises it’s also rotating which allows you to view it from different angles in order for you to perfect it. It also allows you to track the workout which I haven't played around with much but it is super easy to use. Overall huge props to the developers on this app super easy to use and helpful. I would recommend 10/10 and will definitely be investing in this app!

I was pretty hesitant to pay the fee after registering & seeing I needed to pay upfront. Usually I would’ve just closed out the app & deleted it- BUT, I paid the annual fee & gave it a shot and I am SO glad I did! I’ve been in fitness for about 7 years, but sometimes I don’t feel like writing out my workouts, and when I don’t, I don’t have the motivation to go to the Gym & it was becoming a cycle. Now that I have this app- I’m finally excited again to go to the gym! The workouts are great, I love seeing my “total amount lifted,” and pushing myself to make it higher! Just today, I didn’t get up early to go to the gym & around 10:00, they sent me a reminder that it’s back day! It gave me the motivation to get myself in the gym & get today in! I already told my mom and fiancé about it & they’ve both downloaded it as well! My ONLY critique, is maybe giving a week free trial, or maybe one workout free trial- because that did cause me to hesitate on buying the subscription. Other than that, great workouts, great idea, great set up!

So I want to brag a little bit. A year and a half ago I was in the worst place of my life. I had collapsed while trying to play with my kids at the camp ground and went into a sever Asthma attack to the point where they had to perform cpr. All I did was ran about 40’ to catch my son. 40’ at the most mind you. I was 305 lbs 4x shirts and 44 pants. I couldn’t sleep at night my knees always hurt and I was going through a inhaler a week. Yesterday morning I stepped on the scale 238.8 lbs. I wear a xl shirt and 36 size jean. We went through my closet and donated my entire wardrobe of fat cloths. I had lost most of my weight using my fitness pal and the macro counter no special diet just walking and going to the gym. I had went down to I believe 260 that way. When I started using this app and pushing harder I’ve gained muscle drop from 29% body fat to 23% and last night I was able to run around the park with my granddaughter. I owe a lot of success to this app. To the developers thank you for this great essential tool.

I’m not very good at knowing what to do at the gym without someone telling me- this app keeps me perfectly on track. I have a friend that taught me a type of circuit workout routine and I love that with this all you can create circuits and build your own workout, but still have the guidance of the muscle groups you should be working and when. I also love that you can add your own exercises. I like to add CrossFit style movements to my circuits and, though they’re not on the app, I can add them and they get mixed in with the workout. I think this is great for every level of workouts and love the many customizations I can make. It also shows examples of the movements and then breakers them down, which is very helpful.

I don’t normally write good reviews. If a product wronged me or the service was trash I’m all over it with negative thoughts and comments. I must say this app surprised me. There is no guessing on what to do at the gym. There’s no assuming if you’re doing the form wrong. This app shows you what to do, how to do it, how many reps, with how much weight. The great thing is you can go back and look at your progress. You can tweak your workouts on the fly. There is also a graph that shows you what areas you may be neglecting without knowing. (Forearms for me) All that is to say spend the money for the subscription and you won’t regret it. If there is a better app out there I would like to compare it to this one.
