The content is fantastic, and I have already felt improvement after 1 week! However, the app on Android could be improved with allowing the screen rotation to work, full screen videos, and the option to navigate through the videos. Some of the repeat videos, I would like to fast forward through the explanations to get right to the workout and save time. Otherwise, love love the material!
I have always struggled with what to eat to "eat healthy." With this program, they tell you what to eat for each meal, which is awesome! Some of the meals are pretty specific though, and ingredients are confusing to find. It's great that there's workouts each week day. They're a little fast-paced, and the breathing techniques are confusing to understand how to do. I also don't think there's a casting option to put it on my TV, so I have to awkwardly try to listen, follow and watch on my phone.
I love the content & program so far & the coach response time is AMAZING but would like to see a few app improvements. My screen rotate doesn't work to expand the video size, some of the informational videos don't have the ability to see the video progress bar to rewatch certain parts, those videos are extra small, the videos don't have a full screen option. For the self assessments with the clickable buttons, it would be cool if my entries were then stored in the app for my future reference.
I'm disappointed that many of the assessments listed in the daily workout plans require you to also buy the additional $50/month custom coaching plan. You can't even see/do those assessments on your own (without a coach). Also don't like that you can't enlarge the videos on your phone to full screen. It can be hard to see exactly what they are doing on such a small window. Unfortunately I already paid for the year price... just hoping I can still get results without all the extras.
I'm only a week in but I will say I do already feel some improvements which is definitely encouraging! I don't think the price is bad because this is such a specialized app and honestly, it's a completely under served part of the pregnancy/post partum journey. The only reasons I'm not giving it five stars is because the videos can't be made full screen which I thought was weird and in some of the videos there seems to be and EQ problem where the music is louder than the instructors voice.
I've been using this app for about a week and so far so good. I'm using it solely for the ab rehab program and so I can't speak to the other options it offers. The slim down diet looked a little too restrictive for me so I decided not to use it, but there may be others that enjoy it. I wish we had options to only pay for what we want because I feel a little bit like it's too expensive for just the ab part. Either way, the workouts seem effective and the coaches are knowledgeable.
As a Sports physical therapist I love this APP! I love that it incorporates strengthening with posture and mobilization. Like most people, I hate foam rolling and stretching but having it as part of my workout of the day, it ensures that I do it. I feel so much better afterwards. I also like how it goes through breathing techniques and postural assessment.
This app is too convoluted. Nothing is streamlined. Yes, there are instructions for doing everything, but an app that's charging $50/ month should be more streamlined and not have a crowded feed full of unnecessary posts that are not helpful for the customer. I shouldn't need to do this much work for an app that is charging a monthly fee, I should be able to jump in and start. It took me weeks to sign up because their system is so messed up and I ended up having to use a different email.
This is really giving me so much valuable information for recovering my abdominals after 3 c sections. My only complaint would be navigation of the app, it takes a while to figure it all out. I feel like less would be more. Also, I wish you could make the videos full screen and that the coaches would use more description and "layman's" terms when describing/explaining an exercise. Overall very happy I subscribed and I'm excited to see progress in my abs and overall.
The app and program are great. I'm only on week one of the program, but I can definitely see how it will make an impact. Exercises are easy, which is nice for someone like me who is fitness beginner. The app itself is hard to navigate. I'm constantly getting lost in the app, trying to find what program or forum I'm looking for. I think it could use some streamlining and a different layout. But overall enjoying the app.
Love this program so far! The app is easy to use. Love how it is organized. Easy to access what I need and track my progress. Love the coaches and that I have access to them anytime. It really makes me feel confident that I can figure this recovery out and have support all along the way. Also, the additional resources for mental health, sleep, etc are awesome. I haven't used them yet. But, am impressed by how comprehensive the program is for overall health. Highly recommended!
This app has been phenomenal! I'm learning how to connect to my core with the ab rehab program, and I feel supported by the sleep shaping information. The 30 day slim down is easy to implement. I only wish there were soups instead of so many salads. I'm craving warmth in my food. The "next up" appears at the top of the screen for each program you join, so it's easy to find your place and jump right back in.
I can feel a difference just a week in. However, (I think someone else pointed this out), the videos do take a while to load and you can't rotate them. I'll only take off one star for that because I can tell this is super helpful. Also the commentary throughout the videos gives great reminders to readjust and respond to different cues!
So far, the content is great. However the videos are so small and can't be expanded, rotated or cast. They are also constantly buffering and freezing. The 12 minute video took almost 20. I had to back out and go back in for it to start playing again. If these issues are fixed, especially just being able to expand/rotate the video, this would be a 5 start app.
My experience with PT is that $50 a month for an app can be tough, but it's a lot cheaper than multiple office visits, especially if you have to drive any distance to that office. I've seen results, even though I'm doing the program at a much slower pace than I should. I agree with other users that not being able to make the videos bigger is a challenge. Overall, very informative content, good results, and pleasant ladies to learn from. The app is pretty easy to navigate.
Overall, the program is really good and you will see results if you stick to the plans, but at $20/month I expected a little more. Like other reviews, not being able to cast the videos or enlarge them is frustrating, especially when you need to replay something because you need to see it again or missed it. The workouts are great but if you're not used to watching videos to workout and you're a beginner, these can be a little difficult to follow. The music can be overbearing.
I think the content is great and have had excellent consults regarding sleep & lactation which was unexpected but so very helpful. 3 stars for 2 reasons: The workouts can't be cast to TV and also don't rotate on the phone so it's sometimes hard to see what to do. Screen can be mirrored to TV but that's not helpful. The workouts also have overpowering music and it is overstimulating to me and I have had a hard time following along while trying to pick out the trainer's voice over the music.
I'm extremely disappointed. I absolutely loved Move Your Bump during my pregnancy, so I had high hopes for the Ab Rehab program. This app is NOT user friendly. There is so much clutter with "the village", meal plans, etc. that gets in the way of the actual workouts. The videos can't be expanded or fast-forwarded and there's no library of workouts. I'm so frustrated that I paid for a membership for an app that isn't actually an usable. The workouts may be fine, but the experience is terrible.
Signed up for the slim down and was very impressed by the app. Easy to use and follow, want overwhelming with information. Highly recommend this app and their programs. Lost 10 lbs in the first two weeks. I was highly inflamed and bloated. After the first week I started sleeping better, felt more energy, and it really helped with my sugar addiction
Doing great so far, one week into the ab rehab and I'm learning so much. Never came across a regiment that takes you through each step as well as this one. I can tell I will see results. The app is working however the videos are on vimeo which was discontinued on tvs. If you have the vimeo app don't uninstall it or you'll never get it back. You can either google cast these videos to a new tv or on a firestick, you can change display to mirror, and connect with an Android phone smart view.
