  • Using this to recover from my gym classes

    HairyLegs and FatChicks

    I’m loving this app! There’s couple of little things that would be awesome and can improve the overall experience of the app. 1. I know nothing about the anatomy of the body, rather than selecting through all the tabs to find my specific pain, why not allow me to click on the body when diagnosing the pain? 2. Countdown between stretches. Soon as I click ‘next’ it jumps me straight to the next one. Meaning I’ve got to reset the timer. 3. Build your routine, it’s impossible NOT to click on an item, even if your scrolling through the content. 4. What if you don’t have the correct equipment? I think it would be great if we could filter equipment we don’t have, so we don’t view videos we can’t do based on equipment

  • Strava subscription integration only transient

    Asterix2000

    Nice app but seems like some teething problems. Used my strava subscription to sign up, but the app forgets this every time it’s closed. Soreness tracker a nice feature but interface not completely intuitive- e.g. i’ve accidentally removed a body part from the soreness list and now apparently no way to add it back. Other than that, I like the set workouts and the ability to design custom workouts and will probably be 5 stars once teething issues sorted.

  • Great app some glitches

    I’m Spartacus

    The content is good but some glitches. example; when you record a walk on Strava, recover tells you it was a great run… even a short walk! Also the info button can get locked sometimes as is too big for phone screen so you have to close app and go back- bit frustrating if you’re in the middle of a session of different excepciones though.

  • Fatal flaw

    NathanielJD

    The first routine I did had an amazing therapeutic effect. However, after my next run the pain was just as bad, in fewer areas.Instead of letting me do the same routine which helped me so much again, it started trying to force me to do strength exercises on my 8 soreness posterior tibialis? First exercise was to put all my weight on one foot and lean forward? That’s injury waiting to happen.Just let ME pick the routine that’s right for me. In the meantime I’ll have to drop the app.

  • Needs a list view of completed programs/routines

    Andres Rod

    I like the app but needs a way to keep track of the routines and programs you’ve done. It does show you what you’ve completed against your goal, but you can’t go back to check or update. I mistakenly saved one, but wanted to update the soreness level and publish to strava, but I couldn’t find it.

  • Great app - just in need a of a few tweaks

    nikorasu1000

    I love using this app. It is the perfect accompaniment to Strava and my regular running routine. The routines are great and pretty clearly modelled. I just have 2 gripes. The timer is hard to see as it overlaps the little piece of footage that shows how to do the exercise too often and it would be really useful if it buzzed every 30 seconds or something as it’s quite hard to see the timer/your phone when you are on your back stretching your piriformis. Also, couldn’t the routines be grouped or colour coded to make it really clear which are strength and which mobility-focussed when you don’t want to wade through all the options?

  • Nice idea

    MacBuck70

    I’ve found that the routines haven’t worked for me due due to a lack of home equipment. It would be nice to be able to tell the app that I don’t have the required equipment so that it can rule out or substitute routines that require them.My next issue is that I made a mistake at set up and can’t find a way to remove the recommended workouts. It might just be the language the app uses, it says delete which I’ve taken to mean from the app. Could it just be the programme?Lastly, it would be good if the commentary guided you through each repetition, especially for a newbie to the routines.I can see these niggles being sorted in the future so I’ll keep it installed and look forward to new updates. It shows promise.

  • Ignored my privacy settings

    XXfindanicknameXX

    In the set up I amended my privacy settings which the app then ignored when I went to check. Some parts didn’t work - I couldn’t scroll down the screens - and having subscribed via Strava, I then found out the app is currently for runners. As a cyclist this was the smallest point but the final straw. App deleted, and a bit disappointed with Strava for associating with an app that isn’t really market ready.

  • Great but please add an offline mode!!

    tbh_29

    Great app and syncs direct to Strava but desperately needs an offline mode as it won’t load custom workouts without it. It could be good at logging weight training to Strava as well with specific reps and weights if they thought about it. but I feel like it is not really developed anymore.

  • Ideal Strava companion app

    Croninsfc

    If you're a Strava subscriber this full subscription is already yours. I’ve been trying to compile a list of strength and mobility exercises from various sources, now I don’t need to, this sorts it for me
