Fitbod: Gym & Fitness Planner

you shouldn’t have to pay for guidance, it isn’t necessary.

there is no free option, you must pay to use. it was a total waste of time trying to find an app just for it to tell me that I would have to pay monthly or yearly online and give my credit card information and I am not willing to do that. It is saying that I can do a free trial, but I don’t want to put my personal information and I wanted to just try it out, but unfortunately, you have to pay for it.

Easy to use, priced right, easy to give a 14 day trial to a friend, easy to cancel, robust features l. Go heavy go lite it undoubtedly the best app out there for getting and staying fit.

Heed my warning, and do not download or trust this app. This app is a complete scam. I received an email stating that my subscription was renewed at $119, however, I’ve never signed up for this app. When I googled this app, it stated that it is a scam and known for sending phishing emails in order to scam people.

A friend at the gym wanted to show me her current workout plan. What I thought was a PDF ended up being embedded in the app. I downloaded it to view and ended up being charged for an annual subscription. I never used the app, nor intended to. When I wrote to the app admin explaining, I got total crickets. Not exactly honorable business ethics. DO NOT RECOMMEND.

I made an account, set my days, goals, then it made me purchase subscription and I had no way of continuing without it. Disappointed.

FRAUD. Even though I immediately canceled free trial, they charged my card.

Nuff said.

I have over 4500 workouts logged. I used to love this app and the community. I was even on the early adoption team for new releases. This app has not kept up with others in the space. I only use it to keep my workouts logged, although there are better and less expensive apps out there for this. Note: the only reason I’m writing the review is because the app kept annoying me to give it a rating.

Has u do a bunch of stuff then at the end makes u subscribe to a monthly membership to even use the app

Very generic workout suggestions, and the app is poorly designed and glitchy (closes out active timers and sets, and just seems to have a mind of its own). I regret spending money on this. It’s definitely way overpriced. AI could produce an app like this in two days.

I autorized all acces to app finally its not free 😡

Great app. Real simple to use and navigate. Workout suggestions are good for all levels. Easily change out exercises or weights and the app adjusts. Worth the subscription price for sure.

I signed up for the 7 day free trial. When it ended, my card was automatically charged $179.99. I asked to cancel and received my refund and an offer to continue for $4.99 for a month before raising the price. My husband pays $15 a month but when he’s asked to pay for the year in advance, it comes out to $8 a month. No where close to the $180. Family plan is a better deal, but my husband doesn’t want to cancel his plan to switch to duo if it means he’s going to lose all of his progress and settings. I will continue looking for a better app and pricing plan. Pricing changes and is all over the place.

So far the app looks good. I’m on day 6. You only get 1 week to try and that’s not enough. Update Oct 2026.I paid for a month to give it more of a chance. Seems buggy and has a very confusing interface. It’s wasted two workouts plus frustration and time. Good luck with support. So far I got an AI answer.

Honestly a great app at a great price. I got tired of making my own workouts so I started using this app. It’s given me some great options and it’s all tracked on my Apple Watch, so it makes it easier to close my rings on the days I don’t do cardio.

I have only done 2 days and this is by far the best workout app I have used. Just wish the yearly plan was a little cheaper

Eyes up here not down here

This app used to be free to use and you could pay for extra stuff that could benefit you but it turned into a Paywall and you have to have $15 a month just to be able to open the app. absolutely ridiculous

The worst app. It’s like trying to cancel a gym membership. I keep getting charged $100 even though I cancelled before the free trial is over. Very dishonest company.

This App would be perfect if you could add your own custom exercises and track them in the same way that the inapp exercises are tracked. While they do have a lot to choose from there are some niche or uncommon exercises that are missing. Expanding upon the achievement system, similar to other apps where you get badges for monthly/weekly challenges, compete on leaderboards with your friends or the local community would be cool The pricing for workout apps are expensive these days, $15 a month or $80 a year is insane with no option for permanent ownership, though Im sure if it were an option itd be $180+ . Overall its not a bad app, but could definitely do more if they wanted to.

Love this app. Works great and pushes you to meet your goals. Can’t beat the price either.

This is fine at first but it is incredibly inconsistent and changes workouts every week and yes this will SLOW DOWN MUSCLE GROWTH. Super annoying for 16 dollars a month. Do not get you might as well use chatgpt.

Why do I have to pay why can’t I js use it it looks so perfect then I see a subscription I wish it was free because I would be SUPER happy but now I am not…:(

I got the app cause a friend told me about it. I would’ve loved to use it but im not doing a trial in order to use an app. Its not free once you sign up you can’t do anything else in the app until you do the trial which turns into 15.99 or 95.99. I’m not paying for an app where I can get the same info for FREEEEEE this forced trials need to stop. One star

Do i need to pay?

I spent 4 minutes answering the questions and setting up my account then it kept asking me for money to use the app

It makes you I agree to your health app information location makes you agree to everything. You login and then you get hit with a monthly payment or $100 a year and it was hard to delete my account. Guess I was not going to pay $100 a year for this app. You could start your free trial and then delete your data. If it were to tell me that you had to pay for it first and then ask me for my information, that would’ve been fine,

I would say it’s a good app but I HAVE to get a subscription to use the app and I shouldn’t have to.

Do not download or at the very least don’t do trial. Payment is forced through the app and if you get charged after cancellation, you will not get a refund. I requested a refund multiple times and not received one response yet. You can achieve the same personalized workout plan with a simple ChatGPT prompt. This app provides nothing more then a nice UI.

Genuinely all you need for the price of one workout class

When there are ton of free apps and videos around, paying $80 every for this app is not worth it. This app doesn’t learn or adjust as you progress. It is cheap AI that randomly crate work outs that doesn’t suit you. There are ton of same or better apps under $3 monthly or $30 yearly

Please stop forcing me to rate the app

Having to pay just to start your first workout is ridiculous

The app doesn’t learn, increase or push you. I tried this app for 2 months, it’s a complete waste…. You have to constantly increase your own numbers (weight and reps) the times it does increase it can almost be 20% higher. Otherwise you’re on the same weight for weeks!! It doesn’t learn… you can add a workout 12 times (warming up on tread mill) and it will never automatically add it. For 100 bucks you would expect something that actually pushes you (realistically) tracks the workouts you add, also the wording and workouts available are pretty limited, there over 8 machines at my gym that aren’t on an app? Like give me my money back and I’ll use a note pad.

I’ve used Fitbod for about a year, with 235 workouts and 8.8 million pounds of volume logged. The insights, Apple Watch integration, and logging are genuinely good, and I’ve stayed with it through a gym change. Two gaps are making it hard to justify the subscription, and I’ll frame them from a product perspective since that’s my work. The muscle model is too coarse. Fitbod treats back as one unit, but lats, traps, rhomboids, and rear delts are trained by different movements. I’d want to filter the exercise library by region, so I could select rhomboids and see every exercise that trains them, or select back for the full group. It matters for the engine too. If recovery tracking can’t distinguish lats from upper back, it reads “back trained” and recommends accordingly, even when I’ve hit one hard and left the other untouched. Fitbod already tags exercises by muscle, so this is finer granularity in existing tagging, and it benefits every user. The library doesn’t cover specialty equipment. I train at a gym stocked with Panatta, Watson, Atlantis, and Prime Fitness, brands built around resistance profiles rather than general commercial use. Custom exercises don’t solve it. I type the name, classify the loading type, and tag muscles myself, and per your own documentation the algorithm still doesn’t adjust for custom exercises. I do the work and get a record the engine ignores. What I’d want is to search a machine by name, have the app classify it, and treat it like any library exercise, including a starting weight estimate refined over the first few sessions the way Fitbod already does for new exercises. Both are refinements to systems you’ve built, not new products. Recent releases haven’t addressed either, and at the current price the value isn’t there for me.

I am not paying for an app that tells me what to do if it was advanced or had some kind of cool tricks then maybe but I’m not going to pay that much money for something that just tells me what workouts to do

Limited movements in areas for smaller muscle groups. I always feel like I have to adjust the program. Could be better for the money…

Get all the way to the end of the sign ups after going through a long process of height, weight, goals, available equipment, making an account, how many days a week to work out just to get hit with an $8 a month subscription to even see the app after that. Its fine to charge for your product but be upfront about it. Wasted 20 minutes for nothing.

Logged in for the first time in a while, reset my password, and instead of being able to poke around the app and see if it’s what I want to pay for I got locked behind a paywall. Can’t look at nothing besides pay them money Uninstalled

Makes u enter pmt info for 7 day free trial

This app got me going to the gym and pretty consistently. The workouts are great and keeping track of my reps and weights is super helpful having a time rest makes it easy. I feel like it is a little overpriced as each workout doesn’t feel challenging as if you had a in person physical trainer. overall worth buying IF you use it consistently.

You need to pay just to lose weight

No se puede hacer nada sin pagar
