Zero to Hero: The Workout App

The best and most comprehensive lifting app i've used. Premium is very worthwhile. Three complaints: 1. The timer doesn't really work, i don't get a ring or a vibration. 2. Can't make custom emom progressions. 3. Some preset progressions can be customised, others can't. Very strange. That said, no other app ive used is as flexible, powerful or easy to use as this.

Been using the app about a week, so far it's amazing and I've only noticed two small things I wish were different. First, it would be nice under the stats page if your could see more than one lift on the graph at once, I think that helps me get an overall view of hown I'm progressing at a glance. Secondly I'd like to able to change up the rest timers on the fly. These are both very minor complaints, keep up the good work

Updated review: Pro Broken. I purchased the app to sync with Drive since the other local backup option requires a rooted device to get to the data file. But the Drive backup doesn't do anything. It just says login, and when you click, nothing happens. Will be asking for a refund. Second update: the support email does not exist anymore. Will issue a charge back.

Been using this app for a while and I've submitted this problem months ago through the in app feedback form, still no fix. The app doesn't update custom programs if you edit them after creating them, you instead have to delete the entire program and make it again over for the changes to stay. Since the dev made it a premium feature to copy workouts, this means you have to waste time to make a new routine everytime you want to add a set or add/change an exercise. Uninstalled.

For preset workouts, it works great. Modifying them is easy. Creating your own is a little difficult but regardless there are great features which will keep me coming back to it. Edit: But I don't think it is supported any more.

Decent but lacking user control. It just automatically progresses with no way to deny or go back easily, especially if you don't remember your previous TM. Also doesn't log historical training maxes, even when paying for pro. And can't alter the difficulty of T2 lifts. My front squat is not strong enough to do the weight it calculates based on my back squat but there's no way to change the difficulty percentage like other apps.

This app is very useful! very helpful when youre not sure what to do in the gym. just choose your goal, choose a program that suits you (researching the program is recommended as there is limited information no the app) and hit the gym!

Edit: 2.5 years later and I still love this app. I have the pro version and haven't looked back. This app is expansive enough to handle advanced customized workouts. I wish there was more community features and the ability to share workouts but this app is really is all nuts and bolts with no frills. Robust app with random features locked behind a paywall, and missing some features that other apps have

Used to love this app, used it for years but now there are too many bugs when editing programs. It doesn't change your program after editing it anymore. Such a shame because this app used to be great...

Using this app for nSuns. It's good for that so far, automatically has the exercises set, good customizability for units and plate weights (to adjust for the gym plates), and good customizability for the programs also. Does all I expect, no annoying ads either.

Had some real problems with the free version. The program would jump back and forward a week, skipping some workouts and repeating others. The actual workouts were great, but uninstalled.

Using this app for a week now with no issues yet. No updates in a few years it seems. Very simple to use and loaded with so many programs, and options to change and edit as you go.

A simple warm up calculator would be appreciated. Otherwise great app with many options, however, some standard progressions are already set and I haven't found a way to modify Progression by either 2.5, 5 or 7.5 kg.

Mostly positive, a small variety of body building and strength training programs. Some small bugs, nothing to really hamper my experience. Seemingly abandoned by the developer though.

the app has reql potential but not sure its been abandoned now? the rest timer has issues and the app appears to reset itself quite often to the first workout of the week rather then from where i left off. would happily upgrade to Pro version but its buggy ans has seen no updats since October 2017...

Amateur coder, brought the pro version. No updates since more than a year. Made some edits in one of the inbuilt routines and it's a hit or miss situation if those edits show up for the day.

Amazing app with tons of good programs to choose from. Would rank it 5 star, but sometimes when hitting the + or - minus buttons when adjusting reps the app crashes with no reason given.

Has everything I need. Plenty of programmes to choose from and you can customise them. Would like to see specific rest time included so you don't have to clock watch. E.g. 1min for hypertrophy or longer for strength but maybe let this be customisable?

Hasn't been updated since 2017. Good quality but lots of bugs that don't look like they're going to be fixed. The routines included have all had several updates as well. I'd use another app.

Doesn't seem like it's being maintained anymore. The exercise animations don't load when you try to figure out how to do an exercise. It just loads forever

Unlocked the premium features, still not sure what they are. Really needs to remove the default .00 from weight, they only make entering weight clunky.

I've used many workout apps and this one is by far the best. It's incredibly easy to find the program you are wanting to pursue and the calculations work flawlessly.

Love the app but I paid for the pro version to receive Google Drive support but it isn't working and there is no option to get a refund.
