Fitbod Workout & Fitness Plans

Grundsätzlich ist Fitbod eine tolle App die hilft fitter zu werden und Muskeln aufzubauen. Allerdings wäre es schön wenn sie etwas intelligenter wäre. Es wird zum Beispiel jedesmal der Crosstrainer als warmup angeboten obwohl ich zuhause keine Geräte habe und nur bodyweight angegeben habe.

Das free trial habe ich rechtzeitig gekündigt und die Bestätigung erhalten, dass die automatische Verlängerung ausgestellt ist. Dennoch wurde mir das volle Jahresabo nun abgebucht. Ich hoffe auf schnellen Kundenservice und Erstattung. Dennoch sehr ärgerlich, damit nun Aufwand zu haben und meinem Geld hinterherrennen zu müssen. Update: der refund wurde am selben Tag eingeleitet - guter Kundenservice (+ 1 Stern)

I trained now 7 weeks with this app. Several points makes this app really annoying. 1. It forgets regularly my history, so I do not see any progress for the specific exercise and have to guess my last weight. 2. As the App constantly forgets the history it happens, that you get almost the same exercises which you had the previous day. So your muscles are already tired and you have to swap and change the exercises manually, which is really annoying. 3. It has some main programs like strength, or general training but it hasn’t training for simple endurance days like running, stair master, rope jumping or stretching days for recovery. Of course these exercises are in the app but you have to create these workouts for yourself. Also the individual recommendations are missing like an AI feature, where you can discuss your training and the AI adapt your workout plan accordingly. So the app is simple, pretty oldschool and has some annoying errors.

When I first bought this app I thought it was a great app, years later I still think it's the best money I ever invested. Even when I don't show-up, it's always there reminding me of my goals. And when I do show up it's a responsive app that meets me where I'm at. Although, I understand peoples' frustrations with having to manually modify weights because I can't set which ones I have, it's still much better than constantly having to generate my own workouts.What's more is the development team behind it, is constantly improving it, so I have hope this too will improve. I think there are two things I'd like to see modified: 1) a way to reset the expected weights, 2) when an exercise doesn't work (is too difficult), it would be great to be able to identify exercises that would help us scale up to it e.g., if one indicated lunges were too difficult it could recommend something like ... (no idea, which is why I need this function - maybe a standing split stance with partial squat??)

I bike frequently and prefer to avoid additional leg training in the gym. Before the update, the app allowed targeting only upper body workouts, which was ideal. The recent update removed this flexibility, forcing full-body routines. Please restore the ability to exclude specific muscle groups from training plans.

I’ve been using this app for about a year and have tried both the “recovered muscle” training mode and traditional splits (lower body / push / pull). While the training plans are convenient and the interface is user-friendly, the app has a major flaw in how it tracks and evaluates progress. It doesn’t account for muscle fatigue properly. For example, if I lift more on a “recovered muscle” day, the app assumes I should always be able to lift that much — even on a split day when that same muscle group is more fatigued. This leads to unrealistic expectations and inaccurate strength tracking. Worse, even when I follow the recommended training exactly, the app still gives me negative feedback in its infographics, saying I’m performing poorly. That’s frustrating and demotivating. There’s potential here, but the evaluation logic needs improvement to reflect real training conditions more accurately.
