30 Day Fitness - Home Workout Reviews

by Fjfjjdjdkdkfkfkfk

Your Ads are misinforming many people who are uninformed when it comes to their health and what “ideal” truly is. Telling people in your ads that 2-5% body fat is “essential” is extremely wrong. It is extremely unhealthy to live at this % of body fat. It is not in anyway “essential” or the “perfect” amount. The only people that should be doing this, if at all, are professional competitive bodybuilders. However, they reach this ONLY for competition and don’t live with it for longer than a week. Many of them have reported a decrease in quality of health during this 1 week period (obviously). They end up going back up to about 10-12% body fat or even higher after competition.

Also, advertising that muscle isn’t “weight” is also very wrong. I’m not sure if the creators of 30DayFitness are english speakers, but in the ad it says, “Put on muscle, not weight”. People need to understand that when you’re building muscle you’re going to gain weight. Misleading people into thinking you’re going to lose weight while gaining muscle is not the best thing because they’ll possibly lose motivation in their goal if they see that they’re gaining weight. It is totally healthy to put on extra weight, whether it’s muscle or fat.

I am beyond upset with the financial and customer service with this application. I’ve consistently been overcharged. It is absolutely ridiculous that your ap promotes paying 4.99 a week, but I was charged 20 dollars on the same day on the 28th. Now, three days later on the 31st, which is less than a week I’m being charged another 4.99. This amounts to 25 dollars in one week, which is absolutely unacceptable. When I tried to voice my concerns and request a refund, I received an automatic email and then a failure to respond once I replied to the automatic email.

There is also a malfunction with your software that forces me to subscribe more than once which results in you overcharging my account for multiple subscriptions. Even after I canceled the extra subscription and received a refund from Apple, the same issue occurred in a matter of a week. As someone who was truly enjoying this application and recommended it to many of my friends and family, I am deeply disappointed in the lack of customer service and regard for people’s finances. I will ensure to leave a review of my awful experience on any fitness website and on Apple as possible. I will also be receiving a refund from my credit card institution. I hope you all can improve one day. Sincerely, not happy.

PS: Now that I’m trying to leave this review it isn’t letting me because I rated it so low. You all are scam artists.

First and foremost, I am a health educator and epidemiologist. I set my goal weight in 30DayFitness and it claimed I would reach that goal through the customized 30 day plan. I figured it was asking my goal weight to set up a plan based on making proper progress towards that... but no, it actually claims it’s going to get you to your goal weight in 30 days. Unless your goal is 10 pounds or less, or you’re extremely morbidly obese and susceptible to lots of weight loss in a short time with discipline, there is literally no way that’s happening. Again, I am a health educator. For context, I would like to lose 25 pounds. 30DayFitness says it would get me there within 30 days if I ate 1200 calories a day (HA).

Also, you cannot use 30DayFitness unless you pay for it. You just can’t. You make your account, do a couple beginning questions, and it takes you to the screen to sign up for a free trial which then will charge you 4.99/week (ridiculous), that’s how much I pay to be a member at my local gym.. let alone use an app with unrealistic, unscientific workout plans. Anyway, if you do not want to end up getting charged 5 bucks a week, you cannot use 30DayFitness . You get stuck on the free trial agreement, and that’s it. I deleted 30DayFitness a good 10 mins after downloading.

So I downloaded 30DayFitness after my doctor told me I needed to lose some weight. I saw this was a highly rated free app, i tried some workouts and the next day I get a pop up about the working out like a pro. Which I didn’t want because it wasn’t what I was looking for. I did not want extreme workouts. The Pro option is, well, an option! 30DayFitness forces you to pay for it in order to use it basically! I was frustrated so I started the trial and when my trial was up it charged me for it, I didn’t receive any emails about it being over soon because it went to my spam folder. So now I lost my $5 and now that I cancelled the subscription, the Pro Trainer mode thing keeps popping up again and I can’t use it! If you try and buy it and hit cancel it moves you to a screen that says “Are you sure?” But there isn’t even an option to click “Yes I Am Sure I Don’t Want To Pay!!” It is an in app purchase, it is optional and you need to give people the option to say “No Thanks” or “Skip” because I just was looking for the free and easy workouts, I’m not trying to become a super strong person, I am just trying to stay in shape! Please fix this problem and ad an “X” button to skip it! And if possible I want my money back because I am very disappointed!

First of all, I really didn’t like paying $5 per week for this, but it did motivate me to actually open 30DayFitness and do my workouts. However, I did think that was too much money for an app workout. Secondly, I liked the workouts at first but it was strange that the warm-up part of it was more intense than the actual workouts themselves. I’m not a fit person and actually injured my knee the second time I used this but I kept at it, pretty religiously at first, injured knee and all. I was doing three workouts per week at 20 minute intervals, using the lose weight exercises. It got really boring and tedious after a while to the point that I didn’t want to work out anymore. I also saw zero results. Didn’t want to spend money on this anymore because it got boring. I tried to change it up and do the gain muscle plan, but that had the exact same exercises as the lose weight plan. If you want to spend money on a workout plan that you can do at home on your own time, I don’t recommend this one.

It looks like a really good app that would help me out a lot but the con is I don’t want to be opening up my phone and stopping why exercise to check how long I’m doing it or be pulling it out of my pocket. 30DayFitness would be 80% better if you offered it on Apple watches and such also. Easy to look at, don’t have to pull out my phone, and just makes the workouts seem more realistic. Because if I’m gonna e doing these workouts and I have to check my phone if I’m doing something right or if I’m doing it on time then it’s not worth it. This needs to be offered on Apple watches if I’m gonna be willing to pay 5 dollars a week. And that too. Way too much money a week for a workout that cost $0. If your gonna make it 5 dollars. At least to do it every month. But not every week because then your just taking money from clients. There’s gyms that charge less then 30DayFitness monthly. But in conclusion the pro is that the workouts are things that will push you and that’s a good thing. So all together lower cost, make more accessible to other devices, and prove that 30DayFitness is not just for clients money. Thank you

Like most people on the review board, I’m upset I cannot use 30DayFitness unless I do the free trail. I understand it says “in app purchases” but normally that means for other little things like to go to pro not the whole app in general. If you kept 30DayFitness this way I’d much rather it just be the $10 at the start so it’s over with so I don’t get excited to try an app and then not even be able to us it. I suggest that the free trail starts automatically, with a notification that what they are doing is truly just a week for free and then at the end of the week have the pop up that is shown at the beginning of 30DayFitness . I’m not going to agree to paying for something when all I’ve done is put in my name and other basic info. Your giving little taste of 30DayFitness before shoving a wanted payment in someone’s face so of course a lot of people will be upset by this. Even if the free trail was just a day it would be better then not being able to get into 30DayFitness without agreeing to something. I’d rather spend those 10 dollars at my local planet fitness to work out there instead of it going toward an app that I probably would forget I even had.

by JamesInc.

I used the first week for free and had no problems canceling the trial before being charged. For people who give l 30DayFitness a low rating because you cannot cancel the subscription - you do it in App store app, where you cancel all other subscriptions, google for more info.

The reason why I’m giving 30DayFitness 3 stars is the following. 30DayFitness promotes and gives an impression that you get customized trainings based on different names of workouts - Core, or Full Body, etc. I ended up purchasing 30DayFitness because i loved that idea and also that it provided various challenges. However, after some time of using it, i noticed that the set of exercises does not really differ depending on the training i choose. For example, i’m recommended to do Core, Full Body and i also do a couple of challenges - for upper body and the other one for legs. So today i decided to check what exercises were planned for me for Core training, Upper body challenge and legs challenge. And i noticed that the exercises were all the same. So to train legs i needed to do crunches. Not sure if it’s a glitch or it’s meant to be that way, but i’ll be looking for a different app where exercise sets do vary.

by EllaSagarra

I was doing the free week trial and I was doing a bunch of “challenges”. However I noticed that in few of he challenges I was working on, the exercises were repeated. For example, I was doing the flat tummy and I got “side leg raises”, I enjoy that workout. But when I went to do the arms challenge, I got this workout again. So my question is do you have a base of workouts and just random select them for a challenge or am I not knowledgeable of how side leg raises are supposed to help my arms get toned?
Besides that, I think 30DayFitness is super user friendly and very straightforward. I would like to be able to go back on a few calendar days of the challenges because I accidentally finished one without meaning to and couldn’t go back and finish it. I know there was an option to finish it, pause it, and get back to it later but I wasn’t thinking and finished it so my workout for the day was cut short.
Please please let me know because I would like to pay to use 30DayFitness because it’s super cheap and awesome but not if the workouts are just the same for all the challenges.

Thank you.

I’ve used 30DayFitness for a good while now and have seen results although it is coupled with a clean diet as well. Obviously if you can afford it you should go to the gym but this is great for people who don’t have the time or money for the gym, or maybe have anxieties about going. I have lost about 14 pounds so far. That being said I am using the unpaid version of 30DayFitness and while ads don’t really bother me too much the ones with sound do. If you have your own music playing in the background the ads will interrupt it which is extremely annoying because you have to physically leave 30DayFitness and go back into your music app and unpause your music. This happens often and again is very annoying and forces me to pause my workout. But other than that I do love 30DayFitness.

So, 30DayFitness is amazing! The variety of routines and customized workouts are great! I’m hoping to pursue some of the monthly challenges, mainly the belly workout, and it’s going good so far (I’m a few days in). I gave it a 4 out of 5 because I’ve noticed the timer stopped a few times. I was doing a daily work out and saw halfway through that the timer was stuck at around 2:15. I tried to fix it, but it didn’t fix, eventually freezing and not letting me move on to my rest. Eventually the timer fixed itself, but I left the workout (losing all my progress) due to the issue. I will still continue to use 30DayFitness , because it’s so professional and looks really good!

Overall, I recommend 30DayFitness to anyone hoping to lose weight fast and in a convenient, healthy way, but I hope some of the bugs get sorted out (unless I did something wrong, then my bad).

I am a blind user who accesses my IPhone using Apple's screenreader, VoiceOver. I have been combing 30DayFitness Store for a fitness app that I can stick with, and this seems to be the right one for me. The exercises have clear written instructions that are good enough for me to follow, without relying on video that I cannot see. The voice guidance is also very necessary since I can't rely on any visual cues, and honestly, who looks at their phone when exercising? Someone who's more focused on reading texts than burning fat, if you as me! The only minor glitch I have is when I swipe up using VoiceOver, sometimes I get stuck with an exercise for many many sets. Or at least, that's what I think happened with my five sets of side leg raises from Hell! Haha, thanks to 30DayFitness, this couch potato really has no excuse not to incorporate some movement into her life, except maybe the fact that she really doesn't enjoy exercise, but I don't think any app has the magical ability to fix that. Thank you for keeping 30DayFitness simple, effective, and accessible.

I was not sure what an app could do that I haven’t tried for over 20 years myself. My 10 year old son was the one that said push the button and download, I did! I am on week 14 and it promised exactly what it said. I work out shorter and smarter and finally finally I lost inches around my waist. I am one who would love less weight although I still want to live and do not want to be on a diet, just make better choices and live in the skin that I am given. This was a great asset to that goal. God bless the creators!

I am now about 6 months deep into using 30DayFitness . It has been amazing!! Sometimes I have to modify exercises because I am not able to do a regular push up, that’s my biggest challenge along with my diet however my cardiologist said exercise is so important, don’t stop, keep making better choices, one choice at a time!!

by Uuhhhh!!😒😒

30DayFitness is amazing on weather what you are trying to accomplish being more active losing weight gaining muscles all there and they help you focus on certain thing on you body that you would like to see Improvement it has lost me loose weight in just three days THREE DAYS you can choose your difficulty and you can see your trainer and you get weeks for free I have much so struggled with my weight I won’t say my age but I am very young weighing at 146IBs but I now weigh 143.4 and I’m really proud of all the work I am doing obviously you have to have a good dietary schedule if you want a faster result I’m not doing that but I have cut down on my meals instead of two snack and one and half lunches I now eat one snack and one lunch so there you have I love 30DayFitness and I can’t wait til my 30 days are over

by Hollisprincess

I hate exercising, but 30 days fitness makes it so simple! Real life demonstration videos for every exercise, verbal direction, and you can costuming your assigned workout to what exercises are comfortable for you before you start the workout. Pair your workout with a fire playlist and before you know it you’ll be done with your workout and ready to do another one ( which you can do in the additional 30 day challenge section ). I promise these workouts take barely anytime out of your day.
I used 30DayFitness to loose weight, and in 15 days I already started noticing a small difference in weight and a major difference in the amount of tone I had developed.
Highly recommend. In comparison to other pricey workout apps this one is way more worth the price .

by Newmommy1212

I love, LOVE 30DayFitness. 20 min per day, $5/week, in your own home at your pace when YOU want to work out. You can use 30DayFitness while listening to your favorite playlist. All you need is a yoga mat! I’m in my fifties and devote a lot of my time to my family and work. I didn’t need a gym membership, I needed motivation. Seriously, give it a month. I lost 15 lb. in a month! I do routines 5-6 days a week, and try to do 2 a day a few times/week...The transformation in my body is AMAZING. Rolls are melting off, replaced by muscle and sexy curves. There are so many exercises you can do! I love that there are real people doing the videos. No one talks to you, which is great, also!! You CAN read a detailed description of each exercise which is wonderful. I cannot say enough. You will become hooked. I loved the fact you can do in your home, and of course with the quarantine, you cannot pick a better fitness app. The tech support is super, too. What are you waiting for? Look great, feel great, be healthy and happy for $5/week. Thanks 30 day fitness! I truly run your fan club.

Many people complain about the 5 dollars a week in which they would gladly spend the same amount or more on a cup of coffee in the morning. There’s a free 3 day trial which was enough for me. 30DayFitness is flawless and although I haven’t used it long enough to see any major gains, I have gotten fitter and more agile. The workouts and exercises are easy to customize to be easier or harder depending on what you feel like. They even walk you through workouts and give you instructions. So far I give 5 stars for a great app. Keeps me extremely motivated, love it. Stop crying about the 20 dollars a month and try applying for a real gym and see how much they charge and the terrible contracts. This is a cheap gym on your phone, not everything is free to use, especially if it actually works. Buy it, use it, gain from it.

by Cwildhorse

I like the built-in timers ... and the intuitive use of the user interface, it’s so easy to drag up between sets. The exercises themselves are ok, having done p90x and insanity when I was younger (I’m 56) I found their exercises well-designed, now I’m not up to that level and 30DayFitness is seriously helping me get back to that — maybe it’s not a fair comparison, but it’s what I have. It’s not that the exercises are much different, but I find that they pay less attention to ergonomics and physiology than those systems — especially for those of us who need some steps to get to those movements. On the other hand, what this has that the others don’t, is the ability to adjust the load after each workout, very cool. The other thing I wish is that they paid more attention to earn-up and cool-down and actually spent a little time on stretches before and after. It’s not a bit deal because I’ve added those on my own ... but as much as I like 30DayFitness there’s small tweaks that would make it amazing for me. I still give it a five star for finding an awesome app design that really helps me stick with it.

I read the reviews before getting this and I was impressed. Now I’m reading the reviews after using 30DayFitness for 10 weeks now and people write such ridiculous reviews. Complaining that they haven’t lost weight even though they did it everyday, etc. Just a kind PSA: Every persons body is different!! Some people will lose weight just by exercising. Some have to eat healthier. It’s always different. I started 30DayFitness 10 weeks ago and I haven’t lost weight but I feel healthy and that’s all I really care about and it’s all anyone should. It isn’t this apps fault if you aren’t losing weight so don’t blame it. I had no issues with how it charged me. It made me scan my finger print and it explicitly said “pay $4.99 weekly subscription” and I accepted. Easy as that.
Thank you for helping me get healthy!

30DayFitness is amazing! It has everything you want if your like me they have something to loose weight and fat if you want abs or a bigger but they got that too and so much more! I love how 30DayFitness lets little kids use it to you know I’m only 9 but I struggle with my eating and my weight and body fat but they don’t care that I’m 9 and that’s something hard to find they just think no come one come all.I also love that in between workouts they have a 30 second test and then at they end they have cool down time but after all that they ask you how was this workout for so that they will know what you want.I think it is great how they also focus on just 1 thing too in challenges there’s one for summer body and other ones too.I think 30DayFitness is amazing and I would totally recommend it!

by Avery_L

30DayFitness lifts your hopes so high when your hopes fall they break every single bone in their body. 30DayFitness has a nice look and design and lets you customize your training level etc THEN when you're done putting in your name you have to pay or get a free trial! There is NO mention of having to pay in the description except for the fact it says In-app purchases which usually means you have an option to pay for something in 30DayFitness . BUT NO you guys have to make 30DayFitness free and make people download your app and then hit me with a MONTHLY payment to use 30DayFitness . This is JUST a mobile app not a "personal trainer" as the makers of 30DayFitness imply in response to another bad review. A personal trainer is a REAL PERSON who gives you advice, helps you with exercise, and has scheduled classes for you that they encourage you to physically come to. This is a simple planner with notifications and a little bit more than that, which has an unnecessary monthly fee. AT LEAST have a free version that only has a few features and then have an optional monthly payment for the whole shebang. I am extremely disappointed and the only reason this has two stars is because it looks nice actually SCRATCH THAT IM GIVING YOU ONE STAR. HORRIBLE HORRIBLE APP DO NOT RECOMMEND. I INSTANTLY uninstalled it. Fix this and don't respond to be with that copy and paste response.

by @Mayce_DaPeep

I know this may be weird coming from a 12 year old, but I do want to lose weight, and I can’t make a purchase because I don’t have my own money. I also don’t get to lose weight at a gym because I never get time to go with my dad, and no one can drive me. (I also hate going alone!) I’ve been searching the web for some workout that might be some help for me to lose 60 pounds, and I ended up finding 30DayFitness on an ad while trying to watch a video on big girl problems. (And for my age, I’m a “big girl”!) I clicked on the install button because it seemed legit and I wanted to try it out, but then I saw that I needed to pay to use it?! I’m only 12, so I can’t pay! It also says ‘4+’ on 30DayFitness details, so I’m NOT too young! There wasn’t even an X button either, so I just wasn’t allowed to use 30DayFitness! I’m sorry if I sounding rude, but I have tried almost everything to try and lose weight, but it’s not working and 30DayFitness made it even harder! 2 stars! (I’m sorry.)

by Thesugarvillain

Overall I love 30DayFitness but there are a few things that I would change.
1. You guys give the option to thumbs up and thumbs down a lot exercise but that doesn’t really do much. What I would suggest is that when an exercise is disliked there is the ability to alternate that exercise with a different one that basically works out the same muscles as the one that you thumbs down.
2. You should also be able to adjust the amount of reps you do for each set of an exercise. I understand that you could change the difficulty of your workouts but doing this would allow for a more personalized experience
3. Some exercises require equipment. I do these workouts at home so I don’t have any equipment to do some of the exercises in my workout. I suggest having a no-equipment option.
