MadMuscles: Workouts & Diet 12+

Day 2 of 3 month plan, no equipment, no meal plan option.

I’m pretty bloody wiped.

If you need a plan and structure to form a solid habit, this app gives it. I intend to write another review further in but for now I am satisfied with the money I paid. The exercises are explained well, there’s a focus on warm up and fundamentals.

Looking at other reviews the app is constantly being updated and changed based on customer feedback. Which is a good sign. If it was a fully polished app I would have given it 5 stars.

A couple of things that need to be fixed:

- Water counter is busted, worked great first day but now won’t go past two.
- the female voice that tells you there’s 10 final seconds in the excersize, sometimes says “and you can enjoy your break!” This is great except when you’re doing super sets and you don’t get a break!
- would be nice if the stretching/cool down portions had an audio que of when to switch sides so I don’t have to be staring at my phone.
- “no equipment” plan still requires a 6L bottle of water, lol. I mean, I guess that’s not equipment but…I used whatever was on hand, which ended up being a 8kg bag of rice.

Before I begin, let me say that I have years of experience working out (in gym and at home) both alone and with friends, some of whom are professional lifters.

Pros:
1. This app makes me sweat, even on the “easy” days.
2. There is extensive video library (more on this later)
3. The words of encouragement/advice during the work out are good reminders to keep form.
4. You can edit your calendar, swap out exercises and somewhat customize your routine.

Cons:
1. The videos/descriptions aren’t always correct. The other day, my plan included “bent-over rows” but the video and description were clearly a deadlift variation.
2. Oftentimes there are different exercises requiring the same equipment during the superset. Great, except the weight needed for squats and that needed for bicep curls are not the same. For many working out at home, they don’t have multiple sets of dumbbells and there is not time during the superset to switch out plates.
3. The time required to do a particular exercise and the time allowance don’t always match up.
4. Changing, canceling your subscription CANNOT be done in the app. You must jump through some hoops on the website to do it (a but unscrupulous if you ask me)

動画でレクチャー、トレーニングプラン作成などはよいと思います。しかし過去のトレーニング履歴の詳細が確認できない、いつの間にか日本語対応でなくなってしまったところなどがマイナスです。また、トレーニングプランを一度変更してしまうとプランの進捗が最初からになってしまいます。おそらく途中でのプラン変更を想定していないためだと考えますが、出来れば警告またはどういったプランになるのか事前の開示が欲しいと思いました。
