Contact Gymaholic Workout Planner Support

I just got back in the gym after several months off. Found Gymaholic last time I joined as a recent Apple Watch user. Works great and is definitely the best weightlifting app I’ve found especially when considering activity tracking with the Apple Watch.
Previously I found the free version worked for me. As a very casual weightlifting person with a training plan in place. I was able to make my custom workouts without the diagrams and 3D models that premium provided. I was also able to make basic interface adjustments (how the Apple Watch areas interacted with your workout etc) and was happy. Now you can’t even see the title of your workout you made, it blocks everything out and just lets you know you can pay. That’s fine and all but I don’t need to pay to have a model of a workout I’m familiar with.
Will likely end up paying or jumping ship to a lower cost option. No this isn’t crazy expensive but half the cost of Netflix monthly to have the titles of the workout I created seems steep.

PSA: This app is not worth it unless you also buy a membership! I like the app itself, as it does everything I need from heart rate monitoring to just a simple list of exercises. A few things I don’t enjoy include not being able to go back a set, especially if you accidentally skip one (pretty easy to do). I also don’t like that if you tap during a rest, the rest doesn’t go away so you can start your set, it skips the rest and the next set! Sometimes I’m ready to lift before my rest is over, and since it tracks activity and time throughout your workout, this problem prevents you from getting accurate measurements. FEATURES I LOVED: I love the list view of the workouts allowing you to view what’s next, what you’ve done and if anything needs to be completed. They provide a timer for resting, giving you a reminder when it’s time to get back to it. I also really like that you can edit sets and add exercises mid workout through your watch.

I love this app! I wish there were more exercises (especially some of basic but good bodyweight exercises like burpees, speed skaters, bodyweight crossovers, side leg drops, inverted barbell row, star plank, pike push up) but overall this is a great app that hasn't crashed or quit on me like others have. I love that I can store my custom guided workouts on my Apple Watch and don't have to rely on or lug my phone around, a feature most apps I tried before finding this one don't offer. The customizability is fantastic which makes your workout more personal and therefore better.

My biggest request is to be able to add and use gif’s when creating new exercises so that they can be used during a 3D workout just like when the green character is animated demonstrating the exercises. I’d also like to be able to switch from being a Pro user to a Premium user so I can take advantage of Family Sharing and enable my wife to use this app.

This app is money well spent and will only get better as the developer adds more exercises which I’m sure he will because this guy actually listens to his customers/reviewers.

One thing I’d note is that you may need to search a bit to find your exercises because everyone uses slightly different names for some exercises so this app probably has what you want but it might be under another name. This isn’t a complaint, just a common sense FYI to any users out there.
