Strive by KKFIT Reviews

by Jazcardoza

Spend your money elsewhere! I absolutely love the KK Twins but Strive is the worst and honestly a huge scam. I wish there would have been a 7 day trial because I just spent $20 for a one time workout because I never want to use Strive ever again. There are absolutely no pros. All cons 1. You can’t change a workout in case you don’t have the machine it is requesting you use 2. Once you add your meals, you can’t delete them or even view what meals you have selected. 3. Custom meal plan my a**. There is nothing custom. Macros are all inconsistent and inaccurate4. There is no countdown for rest between workouts or set. I’m going to fight for my refund, because Strive was an absolute disappointment to the fullest!

I waited for my one year purchase was up to leave this. I scrolled it a few times and it honestly was not worth the $120 I spent on discount. I’ve been in the fitness industry for a decade and was so excited for Strive, but was sorely disappointed. There is a lack in content, and the meals weren’t very friendly to various diets. It almost seems like it’s a peak into their lifestyle which I will continue to use instagram for free to follow along with.

I like the twins I think they promote body positivity. So I purchased the 10-week challenge and it was okay for the most part. The meal plans are so simple to make but they are not very creative. My biggest issue is spending $60 for a program that you can only temporarily use, YOU DONT GET TO KEEP WHAT YOU PAY FOR!!! After the challenge was done I was hit with a $119 pay wall in order to access the workout plan THAT I ALREADY PAID FOR. It’s just all money grabs.

I’ve paid for the month. Imputed all the required information for nutrition recommendations but the last page is taking 15 min to load. Then Strive is stalling and is not working. When I close Strive it resets making me restart the nutrition information. Have done this 3-4 times. Very disappointing. Can’t even see what Strive offers.

I love the KK twins and use their Instagram workouts all the time. I didn’t want to write a negative review because I don’t want it to affect them, but honestly I’m kind of disappointed in Strive . I love the breakdown of push/pull muscles and it’s given me a good schedule to follow. However, the workouts are just very repetitive and I think they just progress in difficulty over the weeks but they don’t. I basically just use the muscle group schedule but supplement with my own workouts. I think Strive has potential, there just needs to be more to it and more diversity for the price

Truthfully a little disappointed. I really liked it at first but as I continued the workouts were VERY repetitive. I did the 6 week 5 day full body split. After it I wanted to try others but all the plans have nearly the same exercises.. I just wish there was more of a variety.
As for the meals.. they are good but again the only change in some of them is the protein choice so it really didn’t come with a whole lot of meals considering that.
Overall I probably wouldn’t renew my subscription and I regret buying the whole year subscription option.

Today was my first time using Strive and I noticed overall it’s a little slow. Strive froze in the middle of my workout so I had to close it and restart the whole workout which was inconvenient. Was also only able to switch out 1 exercise in a superset. For $89 I hoped Strive would at least be quick and easy to manipulate 🫠

The workouts are great, but it can be frustrating using Strive . I often have the trouble of only being able to see the “warm up” and not the “workout”. I’m clicking on the “workouts” tab it only shows the warm ups. I had restarted the program and lost my progress to see if that would help, but no I still can only see the warm up. A bit frustrating when I spent over $100 on Strive .

I continue to use Strive because the workouts are just what I’m looking for! Sometimes the UI doesn’t update when I log my sets though and at times my workout will randomly just end.
There’s also no way to customize the timer times or disable the timer entirely. I can’t wait for the next update! I hope some of these issues are fixed because the workouts are perfect.
It would be great if there was an in-app feedback section!

I love Strive and the programs as it mixed up my gym routine. I’ve been lifting for 5 years and this has helped me target muscles that I probably have neglected in the years. One of my main issues with Strive though is it is very touchy and I will have it open for my workout and if it brushes up against my leg or if I pick up my phone the wrong way it will stop my workout. This isn’t such a big issue as I can go in and just pick up where I left off but it just changes my stats and takes me a bit of time to find out where I was.

This is a great app. The idea behind it is pretty awesome and the workouts, routines, and meal ideas are right on point. However, when I want to logout my reps it’s a nightmare. Whatever I put in for the second set, resets the first set to my previous workout session’s first set. Please fix this as we pay premium for Strive.

I love KK and their journey is inspiring but this needs to be addressed.

Pros: Strive has a lot of great features and formatting. You can log your weight & reps, see videos of exercises, and has a library of warm ups and cool downs. The aesthetic is great, and it’s easy to figure out how to use.

That being said… cons: for what you pay, you don’t actually get a lot of programs or work out options. For the price, I find the available content lacking compared to other fitness apps such as OWNU or Whitney Simmons’ app. I get that this is a newer app, but then lower the price until you have enough content to compare to other competitors.

Strive offers 6 programs, but really it’s 3 programs and each has a beginning and advanced version.

Overall, Strive has a lot of potential but it’s not worth the price - at least in its current form.

When using Strive during workouts, the tracking part is rough. It often doesn’t respond when I click the buttons. The other part is that it doesn’t give an option for rest time (recording it, timing it, or providing the amount of time expected to rest in between sets). Love the overall idea, the tracking workouts, tracking foods, and love the kk fit twins though! 🥰

I love that I can select a program and it track my reps/sets. I like having guidance on what I should do each day. I have a hard time structuring my own workouts to be effective. I decided to purchase Strive because I have followed these girls for a few years and they obviously know what works. I feel the workouts are effective and challenging. A few things are annoying with Strive and could be improved. If you accidentally close Strive your timer stops/ resets and then once you open it you have to restart the workout. It should just continue to track time. I like tracking the weight I'm using each workout and I know I’m increasing but I would like it to still show previous workouts weight and not replace it when I do a new workout. That way I can look back to see how much I have increased in weight over time. I would also like a little more info/ guidance in the plan regarding the meal logging/ workouts. I have noticed it resets at a certain point during the day. What point ? Who knows? I work out at night and when I log my last meal or protein shake it takes it off tomorrows macros. Does this mean I shouldn’t eat after a certain time? Notation regarding this would be great as timing of meals can have a big impact on the outcome. It would also be nice for it to save your macros each day similar to myfitness pal. (Which still having to use is some what a pain. )So that you can look back and say well this week I was over 3 day or under however many, instead of it just resetting to zero. There is not info on regarding warm ups. There are warm ups but it doesn’t say if you should do one or anything. Also cardio should I still be doing cardio ? Also there are sets for some exercise that reduce reps each time. Should you be increase weights when that happens? I had to email the support to find out. It would be nice if you can access and purchase the cutting/bulking workouts offered. I have no clue where to find those and that has kept me from going ahead and purchasing them. Again I love Strive but just a few improvements would make it so much better!

I love the content of Strive but it does have glitches. While working out if I exit out of Strive to do something else sometimes it will start over. So say I start a workout and I’m 30 minutes in with exercises filled out it will reset to zero and I have to start over. Some of the exercises tracked stay in there sometimes but the clock always starts over. Some days I finish a workout but then next time I go in Strive it doesn’t show that I completed it. Please fix this.

Overall, Strive is awesome the workouts are amazing. The only thing I don’t like is you cannot reset your workout program. Hope this can become an option very soon.

I’ve been stuck in the same workout rut for almost a decade. Back biceps, chest triceps, shoulders and abs, legs. I wasn’t seeing progress any more and I dreaded going to the gym. Downloading Strive and having multiple plans to choose from and having such a large range of workouts incorporated into your routine has me excited to go to the gym now and I’m seeing some serious results. I also love the mobility warm ups! Those alone have me breaking a sweat and allow me to perform the main workout at my best with less risk of injuring myself.
I’ve been following the creators for years and I absolutely adore them and they are such a wealth of knowledge. I am so happy they’ve put it all into an app to share with us. <3

Love,

This is the best app I’ve used so far. I love how each movement has a video demo as well the ability to substitute movements. My favorite part is being able to track each rep and that it lets you know when you’ve reached a PR. I also enjoy the different challenges and programs offered. I’ve completed two challenges so far and ready to start a third program

by Mackaud

Overall love Strive . I enjoy the full body and rebuild programs. I don’t use the majority of the other functions. Biggest frustration by far is how easy it is to “complete” a workout. In order to hear the timer between sets, Strive has to remain open on your phone. I accidentally complete a workout midway through because it doesn’t ask if you’re sure or have any other step to avoid this. It also sometimes struggles to keep your stats/history for exercises between programs.

Love Strive! I have a home gym and they have every exercise with an alternative approach if you don’t have machines or a gym membership. Even have at home workouts with limited equipment!!! The ease to get into a workout routine is amazing. I love all the program options as well. From bulking/cutting phase. To maintain or to rebuild and strengthen yourself. The meal idea with ingredients and how to cook is also great to have and a bonus. They give you your macros if u like that kind of “diet” which I feel is they best way to get results without cutting out your favorite foods. This is a MUST HAVE workout app that has everything at your fingertips! So blessed to have it in my daily life 💪🏻💗💪🏻💗💪🏻
