Contact Caliber Strength Training Support

by The Local Traveler

Paid for the 3 month subscription with the virtual trainer to help prevent any regression during some very busy months with a lot of travel. I work out regularly and notified the trainer and caliber of this. They still said the app and virtual training would be helpful.

The trainer, while nice, offered very generic messages 1-2x per week. Although they did seem encouraging, it sounded like a copy and paste type message. I fell behind on logging workouts for a week and noticed the trainer did not mention anything about it so I thought I would go another week without logging anything to see if they noticed (accountability). Nothing was ever mentioned. After about 2.5 weeks of not noticing whether or not I was actually working out, I decided to end the subscription. The whole 2 months I was active in the subscription, the workout never changed. (Lot of money for only one workout…)

I had high hopes for this. It was the first virtual training I tried, and will likely be the last. Maybe this app + virtual training is helpful for beginners, however it does not seem to be the app for anyone who is not at the beginning of their fitness journey.

If you know how to research workout programs, you’ll quickly come to the conclusion that I did: Caliber is a scam.

The big problem is that you are not allowed to consult with one of their so-called “coaches” without first plunking down $600 for a three-month commitment. This is not okay because any fitness expert worth their salt will tell you that you shouldn’t hire any trainer who does not first give you a no-risk consult and trial session to see if a fit exists for you. It also means that you can’t verify the “coaches” are actual certified trainers and have legit nutrition credentials so they can assist you with your intake, because you can’t out-train a bad diet.

Their so-called science-based approach is therefore worthless because you are not allowed to do your homework before committing. If you’re a self-starter who doesn’t need a coach, this app is an option; but everyone else is better off hiring an in-person CPT in a private studio to get the kinds of results you deserve.

Anxiety and personal life once got the best of me and interrupted my once regular fitness routine. After doing research on various online-based training systems, I found Caliber. I was matched and met with my trainer during a video session. I’ve been working with her for at least a year now.

I previously had general knowledge of gym equipment and fitness in general, but the app and training support makes my fitness routine seem more intentional (not only with workouts, but with nutrition and general habits). I appreciate the demonstrational videos, workout tracking/plans, feedback, check-ins, and words of support. I feel that my goals are truly taken into consideration- as far as body strength, physique, and perceived challenges. Using Caliber requires a sense of accountability to truly take advantage of what it could potentially offer to each individual. For me, it’s been a positive experience for my mental being as well as physical goals. I have literally seen my results manifested in pictures over time as well as in my personal ability to use my strength at work! :)
