- ★★★★★PositiveLove it!!
Absolutely love the Ladder app! Was very easy to get set up. The app is easy to navigate and use. So many options, from connecting to your favorite music streaming service, to being able to control your workout, like pausing the workout, adding more prep time or swapping out an exercise if you don’t have equipment for the one that’s being done and many more. I am on Team Vantage. Coach Brady is awesome! Love the workouts he has planned out, and look forward to them each day. I can see and feel the results of the workouts!! In my opinion this is by far the best workout app out there. Highly recommend it!
- ★★★★★PositiveYou have nothing to loose
Ladder has changed my fitness life. Real professional coaches, a workout plan for EVERYONE, easy to use app, tons of support, access to your coach thru the app, and a live person responding to emails. And so much more. A free trial is actually free with no ads and access to nearly all the content. The GOAT of all Workout programs
- ★★★★★PositiveGreat app
So far an amazing all in one app with an awesome community of people trying to achieve similar goals
- ★★★★★PositiveBest workout app
My adhd brain has not been able to find a better app UX combined with top notch fitness programming. As a tired mom of two this has changed the game for me to take care of myself
- ★★★★★PositiveI actually enjoy working out!
I love how detailed the app is. Worth every penny!
- ★★★★★PositiveAbsolutely love the UI
Have tried a few other training apps over the years and this one is by far my favorite! Love being able to start my workout and not have to touch my phone again unless I’m adding in my weight tracking. I love the in-ear coaching and the plans changing week to week!
- ★★★★★PositiveBest-in-class!
I’ve downloaded and deleted so many of these types of app in the past. Finally, along comes Ladder Strength Training with a best-in-class app. Quite simply, Ladder built a better mouse trap!
- ★★★★★PositiveThe best
This is the best fitness platform out there and unlike anything else. The app itself is seamless and designed extremely well. Highly recommend. At least give the free trial a shot.
- ★★★★★PositiveFavorite Training App EVER
As a former Beachbody user, this is the easiest and best workout app ever! And the only time I’ve stayed consistent for more than 4 weeks in my life! Week 13 & counting, the gamification keeps the dopamine hits coming for my ADD brain! Love the variety, ease of use & quick workouts!
- ★★★★★PositivePhysical Therapist Recommended!!
I’m a PT who is a busy dad! This app is awesome! Well designed and has helped me get back to lifting consistently! Love it!
- ★★★★★PositiveExcellent for working professionals
I appreciate the ease at which the app connects to my Apple Watch, Spotify and give step-by-step workout visuals as well as audio instructions while you’re doing the workout. It’s an incredibly impressive platform and I am obsessed with the fact that the workouts are planned for me. Now I just show up to the gym and do things instead of having to make decisions about what I’m doing. The best part with trainer Maia Henry is that all I need is a mat and dumbbells so I don’t have to wait for machines and get bogged down timewise. I am really enjoying working out for the first time in years and find completing the workouts to be strangely addictive. The results after six weeks have been nothing short of impressive!
- ★★★★★PositiveHighly recommend
I’ve been on ladder for nearly 4 years and it makes workouts easy. I don’t have to think, just follow the instructions. There’s a sense of community with the coaching and the team chat. It keeps me accountable and it gamifies the process making it fun to hit the gym.
- ★★★★★PositiveLove it so far
Just trialing it now, but I think I’m going to have to buy the subscription … 3 workouts so far and the app is user friendly, pacing is perfect and customizable, and ability to connect to Spotify for your own music is a game changer!
- ★★★★★MixedI love this app
I absolutely love how aesthetically pleasing the Ladder app is! The interface is clean, modern, and visually appealing, which makes tracking my fitness journey so much more enjoyable. Everything feels organized and easy to navigate. My only suggestion would be to add a built-in fasting tracker so I could keep everything in one place. Other than that, I’m really enjoying the app and its overall design!
- ★★★★★MixedThe overall design and structure of the app is elite, the commercials are just cheesy

DesignNaheaay · v4.14.0 · Oct 22 - ★★★★★PositiveSo Glad I Joined Ladder
I was looking for a new workout program that I wanted to do consistently and I found it with Ladder. I come from a CrossFit background and Ladder is a perfect fit for me as I wanted to transition away from HIIT workouts to strength-based workouts. The Ladder app is so easy to use and I love the user interface. Most importantly, I love my workout team, Team Endure, and my coach, Coach Jennifer. Her workout and form cues are top notch and super helpful. I love Ladder and highly recommend it!
- ★★★★★PositiveBest Training App
This is a perfectly designed app for consistency, accountability. Coach Kelly is the perfect trainer for advanced and experienced people that need that extra help to achieve that athletic look and pushes you to achieve greater goals. Absolutely recommend this app 10/10.
- ★★★★★PositiveLove this app
The app makes your work outs super customizable and you get to listen to your own music while working out. Track your meals right in the app with calorie and protein counts. Super user friendly
- ★★★★★PositiveAmazing Coaches and program!
I have been using Ladder for just over a month. I have switched teams a couple of times, but recently found my perfect coach! I love the workouts. I love the app and how easy it is to navigate. I love that the workouts count down for you, and the coaches guide you through each movement. I like to work out at home, but I have limited equipment. That is no problem with the Ladder app. You can match up with coaches who use the equipment you have. I highly recommend giving it a try! If you have an HSA/FSA this subscription is worth getting!
- ★★★★★PositivePersonal Training without the small talk
This app has helped me stay focused and consistent in my fitness journey. I follow coach Kelly and her workouts are very focused on strength training. There are different options to help you with what you’re looking for. It also helps you track your progress in how much you lift and how much you increase in weight. There’s also a section for nutrition.
- ★★★★★PositiveBest fitness app by far (and I’ve tried many)
I’ve tried maybe 10 different fitness apps including popular ones like FitBod and BetterMe and they were fine but workouts were preset or driven by AI but that’s not the case with Ladder. The workouts are put together by actual humans who you get to pick as a coach. And that coach (shout out to Coach Abby) doesn’t just drop the workouts and disappear. They are consistently interacting with you and the rest of the team offering advice, motivation and answering questions in a very timely manner. And even with all that the cost is comparable to other apps or actually cheaper. I’ll be on this app for the foreseeable future!
- ★★★★★NegativeToo much wrong
I really wanted to enjoy this app. It’s UI is so slick. However being limited to vertical only workouts proved to not be a selling point for me. Also the trainers that I tried have zero-personality which is not very motivating. I get that these workouts are packaged up super quick and look good, but their pacing is all over the board. The price is also a bit steep IMHO.
- ★★★★★PositivePerfect fit for me!
I’ve worked out in gyms and with trainers and done classes and then since my kids were born I’ve always worked out at home with some sort of online program. This is the first program I’ve used that has actually given me results and also NOT annoyed me in any way. I like being able to just press play and not think about what I need to do, but I also like being able to TRUST the trainer and the results. This is the first program that has delivered that to me without me feeling like it’s neglecting any body parts or progressive overload and just straight forward workouts without any cheesy motivational stuff that I know some people may like/need but I personally don’t care for. Also like being able to listen to MY music during workouts for the first time in years! Most online programs I’ve done have their own music playing and have multiple people doing the class with modifications and stuff… this just feels more streamlined and catered to ME while also being more enjoyable. I can see more of a difference in my body after just three months of Ladder than I saw using my last program for four years. And I actually look forward to my workouts!
- ★★★★★PositiveExcellent
I love this all!! I have tried many workout apps over the years, but this one is by far the best! Love having a real trainer, easy to watch demos, easy to play music simultaneously, I am trying team limitless, I will definitely be signing up after my 1 week trial. Also, there are exercise swaps if you don’t have a bar or squat rack for example. Highly recommend this app, it seems there is a trainer and level for everyone. I can tell this will be the app to beat, and I don’t think there is anything better. The ones I have experience with are Bruno strong and bodi, and Ladder by far is click and go and with more qualified trainers then Bodi. Bruno is great for the moves , but it’s harder to navigate the app, no real cardio incorporated , ladder keeps going for you soooo easy not a lock of clicking on your screen during the workouts.
- ★★★★★PositiveBest Work out App
Have tried a few - but the plan this delivers and keeps you on track with is great - I’ve seen / felt more gains with this app than I have with other programs - 35-40 mins keeps you on track - pause button when your kids interrupt lol - Apple Watch connection - tracks your dumbbell weight each time you log it so you know when you level up
- ★★★★★PositiveI never write reviews BUT
I never write reviews BUT this app has been incredible for me. I have had too many failed attempts at exercising consistently to count and this is the first time I have ever been able to stay consistent and see results with exercise. There are so many great options for teams available, the Ladder community is so encouraging and engaging, the way Ladder gamifies staying consistent is genius, and Coach Stevie’s team IGNITE is the GOAT. I love her! She is so encouraging and she has taught me so much about proper form in weight lifting. I truly look forward to every workout and am so excited to see where it takes me.
- ★★★★★MixedAmong the best but …
I tried a whole bunch and this is working for me. I don’t interact with the other “team” members that much but I do appreciate some sort of social accountability. Workouts so far are “easy” but I can add weight or slow down or pause and add a set, or just add a random “Flex” workout. But really it does what I need to, which is to create a daily schedule that I will be conscious of missing and to keep me moving. I’m disappointed there isn’t an iPad version, and the Apple Watch only acts as an “effort” monitor display, but it would be nice to have controls on it, such as skip (rest periods are about 3x too long imo), or enter the weight amounts/reps instead of having to do this on the phone. I’d love it if there were an integrated meal planner that serves you options, instead of just a food logger. I like the current team I’m on but I will likely explore the other teams to see if one style really resonates with me. Overall great job and I’m looking forward to keep up with the routine🤗
- ★★★★★PositiveBest workout app out there
Have really upped my gym game with this. I used to get lost on what exercises to do and waste time figuring out what’s next or how to order things. These makes work outs concise and effective and there are SO many choose from!!
- ★★★★★PositiveI love this app!
This app is gas! So many different teams, as well as workouts to choose from, all based on what kind of goals you have set for yourself/your physique. Team Vitality ON TOP!
- ★★★★★PositiveBest Workout App Ever
The workouts are great, coaches are amazing. I actually get excited for the Sunday workout drops, which motivates me in staying consistent with daily workout. I love the flex workouts on my “off” days because I can sample other teams and workout styles. I wish there was a family subscription option, but the app is so good I also pay for a subscription for my wife.
- ★★★★★MixedThe best workout app
I’ve been using ladder for almost two years now and I really love it, I have seen so much progress with my strength. I love not having to think about my workouts. I love the different badges you can earn. I love that I’m able to track my weights im using and be able to see my 1 rep imax. I love the 4 different teams I’ve been on. It’s really the best workout app. THE ONLY THING I DONT LIKE IS THAT THERE IS NO DIVERSITY WITH THE COACHES. I have been on the app for over two years and there are about 20 coaches and 3 of them are black/brown.
- ★★★★★PositiveAwesome workout app
This is the best workout app and I have tried plenty. It takes the guesswork out of your daily routine. The videos are great and the coaches give fantastic tips to ensure each exercise is completed with correct form. I’m excited to dig into the nutritional aspect of it!
- ★★★★★MixedGreat workouts, thoughtful programming, but I miss the production value
As a former Apple Fitness+ user, I’ve really been enjoying Ladder and Team Define. I like that the workouts are organized and intentionally planned, especially the focus on specific muscle groups and how the programming comes together over time. It takes the guesswork out of deciding what to do each day, which is a plus. My hesitation is that I do miss the production aspect and “real-time” feel of Apple Fitness+. There was something motivating about having an instructor on screen, the music, studio atmosphere, and feeling like you were actually participating in a live class—even though it wasn’t live. Ladder also doesn’t provide any guidance for modifications. Which, IMO can be dangerous. That said, I like the structure and coaching in Ladder, and I’m enjoying the Team Define program. If Ladder could bring a little more of that energy, production value, and immersive feel into the workouts, I think it would be a better overall app.
