Sesh Fitness: By Katy Hearn Reviews

I wrote my previous review below just shortly after purchasing the 2018 Spring Promo. Since then I have competed in the 2018 Summer Challenge and purchased the Workout Generator. I still love SeshFitness and use generator every time I go to the gym.
I do wish the workout generator had a feature that would allow you to indefinitely ignore a certain workout if you’re physically incapable of doing it so that it won’t pull that into your mix again. It seems like the “Choose Another” gets stuck on pulling in the same workouts over and over. For example, I probably had to randomize 20-25 times until it finally pulled in the cable hamstring curl I was looking for as part of my workout. Or, it would be so cool if you could scroll through a list and pick the combination of workouts you wanted instead of the random selection. I saw they are working on a way for SeshFitness to track amount of weight used as well, can’t wait!!! For a startup app I’ve been really impressed and can’t wait to see what new features come this year!!!

Spring 2018 Review:
Absolutely love SeshFitness ! I purchased the spring promo workouts and I love the organized workouts and video access. Makes for an easy transition to the next workout. I only hope enhancements come in the future to note weight on each workout and hold your place as you complete the weeks and relaunch SeshFitness each time. Overall, this turned out to be a great app. Thank you so much Katy & Hayden!

I just finished the Summer 2021 challenge. It was my first FBK challenge and I saw a lot of progress. I felt stronger each time I worked out, I lost 7 pounds, and I lost so many inches. I love SeshFitness because everything is so easy to keep track of. You’re able to track how many sets you’ve done, how much weight you lifted, and how many reps you’ve completed so you don’t get confused or lose count. When you’ve completed the exercise it automatically switches to the next exercise which keeps you working out and you don’t have to click around to figure out what’s next.

I did notice that some of the videos didn’t match up with the descriptions, but I used those videos as modifications of I couldn’t quite do that exercise yet (spider flys 💀). Otherwise I love how everything is there in SeshFitness . I love the short video tutorials for some of the exercises as well, it saves time looking for explanations for the moves.

Giving others the ability to purchase past challenges is so great as well because it keeps people busy between the challenges and it gives them something to follow. I love that there are different subscription levels as well making it so people still have the ability to complete Katy Hearn workouts at different levels of affordability. Overall, great job Katy and team!

I’ve done 3 challenges with FBK now and they all have been challenging. I’ve been at different fitness levels each time and they cater to such a wide variety of fitness levels. I did one challenge about 3 months postpartum, coached, so they could adjust my macros. The coaches were wonderful and so helpful and encouraging. I also did an uncoached challenge at about 9 months postpartum and was much stronger and in-shape but the workouts were still challenging. During the challenge, you have the option of home or gym workouts, which has been very nice during the pandemic and with being a first time mom with a husband that works 24 hour shifts. Even when you’re not doing a challenge, SeshFitness is super helpful and user friendly. You can enter your weight, rep, and set count, which is shown the next time you do the workout so you remember what you did the previous time. You can also choose home or gym workouts here. On SeshFitness there is also a forum to post in, helpful tips and tricks, and a nutrition guide. All of which are helpful in your fitness journey. Weather your a beginner or an expert, SeshFitness is diverse to meet your needs. I will definitely be doing more challenges in the future. Thank you for such an awesome app and for continually improving it.

I’ve been following Katy since she was selling her online plans for $80. So I’ve been a big fan of her products for a while. I used to love SeshFitness but I just feel like the exercises are grouped so weirdly now. Like why are we working 3 muscles for 1 session with only 4-5 workouts? Doesn’t feel effective. They’ve even grouped super sets for two opposite muscle groups with two different machines. Ex) superset hip extensions and cross cable tricep extensions??? It just doesn’t make sense and isn’t convenient if you don’t have a private gym or the gym is packed. Most days in the newer challenges are like this and it just doesn’t seem as effect or Efficient as whoever was putting the challenges in the past. I understand you don’t have to follow the superset format but for beginner lifters this can be intimidating, confusing and annoying. If you do want to try SeshFitness I suggest starting from the older challenges back in 2019. Where they are separated between upper and lower body days or the sessions would group only two muscles max which made the most sense to me. Although, the interface is the best work out app I’ve used (which is what brought me back) Simple and easy to navigate and understand. But feel like the quality of the work outs went way down and the price went up to $20. Not worth it in my opinion anymore. I’ve cancelled my subscription again. 2 stars for quality of workouts but 5 stars for the interface.

This was my first FBK challenge and I will definitely be doing another one! If you have been on the fence about SeshFitness or the FBK challenges don’t waste anymore time and do it! I was hesitant starting this challenge at just 6 weeks postpartum, but ultimately purchased for the flexibility. The option of at home workouts gave me a work out plan feasible to stick to with a new baby at home. And did I mention the workouts are yours to KEEP?! SeshFitness keeps your workouts organized and easily accessible for you to use whenever. You can repeat the previous challenges/workouts as many times as you like. SeshFitness is so user friendly and makes tracking progress, nutrition, and workouts a breeze! I also loved the option of coached vs uncoached. I wasn’t familiar with counting macros so I purchased the coached option. My coach was SO helpful during this challenge! She was full of great information, tips, and tricks, especially regarding nutrition and modifications to the workout plan. I lost 16lbs during my first challenge and the before/after pictures are amazing! More than that though, I gained so much confidence in myself which is priceless! Thank you FBK Family for helping me on the journey to a healthy, happier me!

Love the Fit By Katy App - especially after the new redesign update. SeshFitness is very clean, organized, and user friendly. The challenges offer at home and gym workouts so it really is designed for everyone. You get to keeps all past challenges/workouts that you have purchased. I have been doing the uncoached challenges and they have given me the structure and the accountability that I need which in turn has given me great results. Your check-ins and progress is saved within SeshFitness so you can look back on your fitness journey. This is the only app I use now! You don’t have to write anything down in a notebook - all reps/weights can be recorded within each exercise in SeshFitness so you can track your progress each week. Super convenient!! Currently, the only issue for me with SeshFitness on iPhone is the workout videos will sometimes freeze- not a huge deal. Also SeshFitness used to not load when on WIFI and I’d have to turn WIFI off, but it seems this issue has been corrected. This is a must have workout app for everyone!

This was my first FBK challenge and I was super happy with it. I had coach Jasmin and she was beyond amazing and continued to show up for me each week especially when I struggled. This challenge helped me in more ways than just the physical change I got from it and I am so thankful that I signed up!! I have followed Katy and Haydn for years and always wanted to do the challenge but never had the courage to sign up. It took me going through a really hard time to finally say ‘you know what, I’m going to do it’. I am eternally grateful that I did because I would have never met Jasmin nor would I be where I am at right now. The only suggestion I have is to be able to check in with your coach more than just once. This was my first challenge and I didn’t know what to expect and I had questions that I forgot to write down and then forgot to ask. I know the coaches have a lot of girls but being able to submit questions when I have them would be so helpful.
All in all I loved it. I loved the workouts and my coach and I can’t wait to sign up for fall, coached!😍

I’ve had the FBK app for a few years and used it a few times for the workout generator and really liked that I didn’t have to figure out what exercises I was going to do on my own. Definitely took the guesswork out of it!

More recently, I signed up for my first coached challenge and SeshFitness is the platform for everything (check-ins, coach responses, work outs, macros calculator, forum, etc.) I love that everything is in one place. I don’t have any prior experience with the challenges, as I know some people have, and complained about the new app in regards to the challenge. It definitely had a lot of glitches in the beginning like any app but support was quick to get the updates out and work out the kinks! I feel SeshFitness is really straight forward and user-friendly.

There are a couple things I would like to see change though…
1.) The pictures that get submitted in check-ins are SO small and I would like if we could click on them to expand them and be able to see the full picture.
2.) I love the feature to log weight and I know it brings up the weight used for the very last set when you previously did that exercise, but for me personally, I want to know the weight that I started with on the first set. Being able to see that would be helpful!
3.) I saw someone else mention an in-app timer for rest periods. I agree! This would be an awesome added feature!

Gym and home exercises = No excuses I’ve completed two of the Katy Hearn challenges since she released SeshFitness , and for me it does exactly what I need. I recently just signed up for the premium which gives you access to all of the challenge programs and the workout generator. SeshFitness also has a macros calculator and nutrition/supplement information to help you reach success. SeshFitness gives a detailed description for each exercise as well as a video showing how to preform the exercise. You can also track the weight you use and the reps you were able to complete for each exercise, which is something I love. I hate planning out what I'm going to do at the gym and using SeshFitness takes that stress away. Katy has always had signature exercises that I’ve enjoyed doing and I suggest SeshFitness to anyone trying to change their life style. Whether you have experience lifting weights or never touched a dumbbell SeshFitness is a great choice. I’ve had SeshFitness since 2018 and it’s never given me any issues. Highly recommend.

The Fit by Katy app is such a great app. I love that they include videos with each workout so you can see the proper form & be more confident in the gym especially if it is your first time. I love that you have the option to build your own workouts (especially if you’re super busy) or join any of the challenges they host. The challenges are my favorite because there is such a huge support team behind it all, and i love that you can communicate with your coaches weekly and they can assist when your having problems or stuck. SeshFitness is very user friendly and easy to navigate which i love. The team is very fast at responding when you’re having issues with SeshFitness which is truly amazing because other apps could care less.
They added a new feature to track your reps and weights which i love because now you can always go for that extra push in the gym. I’ll always recommend SeshFitness to anyone trying to start their journey and even stay on the journey. Thank you Katy and your team! 🤍

I want to start off by saying that I absolutely love Katy and the empire she’s built. I’ve been following her on Instagram for awhile, which prompted me to get SeshFitness . The workouts are great, it’s easy to use (I have the basic package, broke college student here🙋🏼‍♀️). For the most part, there’s a little note below each of the video with more instructions, however, on many workouts, there’s not. I’m by no means new to the gym, and so it hasn’t been all that hindering to me, but I think that that could use some updating. Now for what might actually be a deal breaker for me: when choosing at home for the workout generator, it assumes that you have dumbbells and multiple kinds of resistance bands. I know that these aren’t expensive necessarily, but it’s tough to be in a dorm and try to make it work without these things. I have to do a lot of make-shifting to make it count. I wish they would make it so you could filter out workouts that require equipment you don’t have. Ex: I have a full set of “booty bands” (the looped ones) but not a long band. So if I could filter out the workouts to only include body weight and bands, it would literally be the perfect app.

I love SeshFitness in a lot of ways, it’s not perfect but it really helps me to stay on track with my workouts. I love how there is a video of each workout that is presented; makes going to the gym much less intimidating!

However...I was having some trouble with SeshFitness. There were tons of glitches - it force closes all the time (which is extremely frustrating when you’re in the middle of a workout and have to go back and find it again) - one of my workouts suddenly changed to a home workout half way through the challenge and completely threw me off... Just to name a few. I figured I could email the developers at their support email, but to my surprise no one answered. I sent multiple emails. I got NO response. I saw later in some of the comments on a photo Katy posted that this is a common problem. Some emailed up to 5 times and never got a response. SeshFitness is expensive and should be better for what we are paying for it.

All in all, I love the idea of SeshFitness but I won’t continue paying for it if problems are not solved, or at least addressed!

This is the only workout app I use now!
SeshFitness has workouts for both the home & at the gym. Each workout has a detailed description of how to do it. If you need a visual image of exactly how to do it, you can click on the video clip to see a video of the workout. You can track both reps and weights for workouts. This is so nice because you no longer have to try remember how many reps or what weight you used last time. I also really appreciate the other little features SeshFitness has such as a macro calculator, nutrition information & suggestions, and also updates from both Katy & her team. They do 8 week challenges also that you can buy that are released seasonally (but soon to be more frequent per the creators of SeshFitness ). SeshFitness also is very user friendly & I’ve never had any issues with SeshFitness such as things freezing or not working properly. I really enjoy SeshFitness & it’s the only one I use now.

I had been wanting a change for a while. I was unhappy with the way I felt and looked; everyone is their own worst critic. I had tried looking up several workout and nutrition plans in the past, but nothing ever stuck. I’ve done two challenges with Katy now and could not be more pleased! SeshFitness makes your workouts so easy to access and follow. Each day you know exactly what body parts you are working. You then just click your day and click each exercise. Each time you click, it will tell you exactly how many reps and sets you do and also has a very helpful video showing you how to perform the exercise to ensure proper form. You continue clicking through each exercise for that day, marking when complete and Voila! You’re done. I am a Fitbykaty fan for life now and will continue to use SeshFitness and complete her challenges. I could not be more grateful to the easiest app and lifestyle change that has made all the difference!

SeshFitness is definitely the best I’ve used for working out so far and it’s helped me to be the most successful and consistent I’ve done with any program EVER!!! I love the challenges and how they give you a separate workout for home or gym; every set and rep organized with a thorough description and video so I can really know how to get the best form! I love that you can get adjusted macros through the nutrition tab whenever it suits you in your weight journey whether it’s loss, maintenance or bulk! I also love the forum and community that is there on SeshFitness because support is important when trying to change your lifestyle! I even got to share the challenge experience with my sister and we daily kept each other accountable and rooted in with the post workout messages available to screenshot and edit/“markup” after each and every workout! The FBK app really knows how to keep you engaged and confident on your road to a better body and mind!

First of all let me state that Katy Hearn and Haydn Schneider are absolutely amazing incredible trainers that truly care about the client experience. She clearly states that you have to purchase a challenge in order for SeshFitness to be available for for use, never pretended like it was anything different. I am so grateful to have these two as my trainers and I’m so excited to see where this journey takes me SeshFitness is absolutely incredible i’m so grateful to have these two as my trainers and I’m so excited to see where this journey takes me SeshFitness is absolutely incredible and so easy to navigate. You’re putting in so much time and effort to continually update SeshFitness and make it a better experience for their clients
** please do not listen to the trolls that one star SeshFitness because they clearly have a personal issue. This is a client experience it’s not a YouTube’s videos... yes you have to pay money to have accountability from your trainer and have them update your macros on the weekly basis**

I like how modern and streamlined SeshFitness looks. There are similar apps that give the same features and workouts for free, but I prefer this one because it’s more aesthetically pleasing and less cluttered. My complaint is that you can’t swap out just one or two workouts when using the workout generator. I don’t have some of the equipment necessary for some of the workouts and it’s frustrating to have to get an entirely new set of workouts just because one wouldn’t work. There should be an option to swipe and swap a workout that doesn’t work. Or there should be a feature that asks what equipment you have (the similar free workout apps even have this feature). Hopefully you guys can fix this soon!

Edit: the generator also force closes CONSTANTLY. Super frustrating. Maybe since this seems to be a constant, ongoing problem that can’t be resolved, make it an option to “lock in” a workout. That way when it ultimately force closes in the middle of your workout, you can open SeshFitness and resume with the same set of workouts!

I was very excited when the workout generator was released, as Katy is one of my favorite fitness gals on instagram. Unfortunately, when I made the purchase through SeshFitness , it didn’t reflect in my account. I heard that several others were having the same issue and an easy fix was to delete and reinstall SeshFitness . I did this multiple times and when I signed in, it still showed nothing. I emailed into help, they got back to me quickly letting me know this is an Apple issue and to repurchase through the website, and then to request a refund from Apple directly. I was going to purchase through the website once the refund from Apple posted, but when I reach out to Apple they told me to contact SeshFitness developer which brought me back to Katy Hearn’s website. I reached back out letting them know it will not allow me to request a refund under “my subscription isn’t showing” and to contact SeshFitness developer. Delaney’s reply was to select a different reason and they should be able to help. When I did that, it states that I’m not eligible for a refund. I informed Delaney on what Apple was saying and I haven’t received a reply since. Very frustrating process, I wanted to love it.

I have had SeshFitness and have been a premium member for a few years now. It is a really great app all around, it has many options for everyone, this includes those who want to casually workout at their own leisure and on their own time and for those who want to do an intensive 6-8 week program.

There is a lot within SeshFitness, so definitely explore it!

I have done two coached challenges: this includes a 6-8 week workout program, a coach that you check in with on a weekly basis. The coach monitors, your cardio, water intake, and macros. Of course it is tailored to fit each persons personal needs and lifestyle needs, such as breastfeeding, vegan, vegetarian, etc… There are also winners chosen at the end of each challenge!! It’s great being held accountable by checking in with someone weekly, it’s added motivation to do your best for the maximum results possible, however this is available with additional costs.

As a premium member you’re able to access precious programs that have been released.

You’re also able to just select what muscle groups you’re wanting to focus on and it will select a workout plan for you.

I highly recommend SeshFitness, it has great (an endless amount of) workouts, it is user friendly, easy to use, does not glitch or crash. It is overall a really great layout and worth it to be a premium member!!!! 🤩

I have really enjoyed using SeshFitness overall. It is a great way for me to get workouts generated and stay consistent. When it comes to the challenges I would like to see the option for coaches to be able to see what we enter during the week when we are working out. For example: weight 60 reps 8. In addition, I think there should be a place during challenges for you to enter your cardio. I noticed when you submit a check in or you reply to a coach in the check in space you have to close the whole app and reopen it. For overall app use I would also like to see the option for lose weight and build muscle in the nutrition section for macros. I would also like to see a calendar of some sort where you can look back and see what you have done for the month workouts and weight lifting information. I hope this help take this already awesome app to the next level!!

So it’s my 6th challenge with Katy, And I have to say I do love having SeshFitness with all of the workouts and videos in one place. Prior are used to have to print out the workouts and make sure I brought my binder to the gym no more need to do that as everything is easily accessible on your phone. No more switching back and forth to Instagram to search hashtags if you’re unsure of the workout either.

Understanding this is brand new and I’m sure there are MANY changes to comer there are some things I do wish SeshFitness had; a spot to keep track of your weights/ reps, search bar for comments in the challenge forum,a longer timer for taking picks on your own,-‘d that the weeks don’t automatically switch on you until you’ve completed the entire week prior. Other than that it’s truly great! I love being able to check right in with Katy and having it log all my pictures as well as having her responses all in one spot.

If you’ve never done a challenge with her you’re truly missing out!

Great app all together, I use mostly the workout generator. I know my way around a gym and know what to workout for what body part but this is great so I don’t have to think. You pick home or gym, then body part and there you go, instant routine. Only 2 minor things I’d like to see added in SeshFitness :
1. Leg workouts are soooo long and I don’t always have more than 45mins-1hr to spare in the gym. Anyway to add length of time wanted to a workout or just have a shorter option to the workout generator?
2. I’d love for the workout to stay on my home screen as if it were a music app so I don’t have to open my phone to see the current or next exercise. I think that would also draw attention to it while at the gym and would help market it more :)
Again awesome app! One of the greatest perks is that it has a loving family behind it. Love Katy, Haydn and their little Axel. Keep up the amazing work!

First and most importantly, SeshFitness IS AWESOME!! I love the workout generator(brilliant).. and the ability to hop into any of the promos for a self challenge!

BUT...

The complaint I have is even after an update I still have problems with the workout generator closing out almost every time I swap out of SeshFitness , or the screen sleeps during the set. :( it is driving me absolutely insane!! Also, everytime I open SeshFitness it tells me there is an update, but it never updates. I checked settings- no update. App Store-doesn’t even tell me there is an update or that SeshFitness has updated. I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling.. also a hard reset. Still the same problem :( I tried everything I can think of, and I know this last update was to fix this problem. So I’m at a crossroads bc I love SeshFitness, but I’m having issues with it :(. I’m going to keep if for another month and see if it improves.

SeshFitness is really great when it works. There’s been many times when it has not worked for weeks at a time and takes several days for customer service to respond just to give a general message every time. Also most of the newer exercises that have been added along with 95% of the at-home exercises in the generator function feature other girls demoing the exercises, most of them are in a very dark area in what seems to be a tiny apartment. Anyways the demos by these other girls are not anywhere as good as the exercise demos Katy does herself. So that has always been a huge gripe of mine with SeshFitness. Please refresh SeshFitness exercises with better quality and if not Katy, other fit girls that are performing the exercises clearly and in an inspiring manner! Believe me, it would make a huge difference as I’m in a big forum where so many others have voiced the same exact complaint.

My first impression! Wow wow wow ! Im so glad got the subscription! After giving birth to my son the plan was to go back to the gym after the doctor cleared me. Obviously things don’t go the way you plan them . It was so hard and still is to have time to myself or to even go to the gym because all I do is breastfeed and he doesn’t take the bottle at all 🙃🙃 so after 7 months of PP I’m back at the gym ! The first time I went back I was so lost because I didn’t work out for over a year due to being on bed rest and other complications. This is my second day back at the gym and this was great for guiding me through the machines and working out specific parts of my body! I didn’t feel like I was wasting my time and just standing around trying to figure out what to do ! Definitely recommend

Katy and Haydn go out of their way to make everything perfect for their customers. SeshFitness had some glitches at first, like any app would, and Katy and Haydn handled it with such patience. I truly applaud them for being so down to earth and professional. They had many many people asking the same questions or not paying attention to what was told and they answered everything with a professional attitude. SeshFitness is made for client experience and is not very useful if you are not part of her challenges. She made this very clear from the get go, yet some people still don’t understand that. SeshFitness is beautifully crafted and easy to use. Katy and Haydn take everything we suggest and try to work toward making it even better than it already is.

I am proud to be a client of Katy and Haydn!

Love SeshFitness! It got me back into the grove of working out more regularly after going through a small slump. I can go to the gym and not plan ahead or even think. SeshFitness does the thinking for me. As a new mom with a full time job it’s so nice to just follow SeshFitness instead of using my last few brain cells of the day figuring out what exercises to do. The ONLY flaw I’ve found is SeshFitness will reboot or time-out if you’re not in it the whole time you’re using it. Several times I’ve gone to send a text or change a song and I’ll double tap my home screen to go back to SeshFitness and my workout is gone. I’ve had to start a whole new sequence after already completing half of one. Now I screen shot to make sure I don’t lose what SeshFitness has generated for me. This is by no means a fatal flaw, but it’s definitely annoying.

I’ve been loving SeshFitness , from the Promos to the Generator, it’s great and easy to navigate. That being said, I think a few things could be improved to optimize the experience. My suggestions would be when using a promo, it would be helpful for it to “remember” what week you’re on and automatically open to that week. Also, it would be helpful to have a check mark on each “week” page next to each section (i.e. lower body, upper body) that was completed once you hit the completed button. Sometimes i find myself having to click on each section to remember which ones I’ve completed or not if I have to skip a day or two at the gym. So glad I can use SeshFitness for my workouts, it’s super helpful and keeps me motivated!

I have done 3 KH challenges in the past prior to SeshFitness . She was helpful, provided more feedback, allowed as many check ins as needed, and provided much more informative info. Now that SeshFitness is used, you’re only allowed one check in a week, her responses are so small and simple. Usually the same responses each time. Katy please, if you are reading this, I hope you see the unsatisfactory MANY girls have seen in the challenge this time around. As of now, I would rate, do not pay $200 to get SeshFitness. It truly is not worth it for the lack of training you will get from Katy. Sure you can do all the work on your own, and see success. BUT if you are looking for personal training and informative responses, you are NOT going to get it. I feel bad writing this as I’ve always been a fan Katy. KH, I think you have taken on a lot of stuff now, and potentially this has gone to the bottom of your business list.

I love the workout generator! I pay for the basic version and it’s plenty for me. You get to choose what muscle group you want to work (e.g, hamstrings, glutes, shoulders, etc.) and then it generates a series of 5-7 exercises for you to do for your workout! If you’re not feeling that set of exercises you can generate another series of exercises until you like what you see. Easy as pie. Though the actual workouts have me dying 😅 love love love. Also, to those who say it doesn’t work, check for any email address discrepancies!! You might have purchased it with a social media login and then logged into SeshFitness with a different email. Use some problem solving skills!

SeshFitness is pretty great. Yes, there was some minor glitches but they responded back immediately and told us that they were going to try and fix it immediately with a few updates ahead. Definitely shows that they care about the quality of SeshFitness . I’m really satisfied with SeshFitness and I’m really excited to start!
-Those who did not buy the challenge are a bit upset that there’s not more for them, but look at the other programs offered on Instagram by popular fit people. They’re about the same price or even more, but Katy really spent her time providing something more for her girls which I really appreciate. She wanted to make it special for us, which she did!

First off, I love the workout generator. This kept me going for a few weeks with different workouts - great concept. However, the workouts are very repetitive (please update your leg workouts - I’m tired of doing side lunges), SeshFitness is buggy, and you cannot save your workouts or track your progress. I also wish there was a way to hide exercises or customize with your favorites. Honestly, I’m bored with it now and just find myself pulling up SeshFitness for a workout but replacing each exercise with something different.

Note: I also paid for the premium service at first and that was absolutely not worth. It was just a general guide on how to eat healthy and no macro calculator. Access to the promos wasn’t worth it (the generator is better). Waste of $.

I want to love SeshFitness for the generator but the features are just not there.
