TRAIN HARD – Fitness App

The Train Hard “Force” program has gotten me into the best shape by any measure in my life and I’m 49 years old. It got me running again, helped me drop 26 pounds, and supports my Jiu Jitsu schedule perfectly. Simply put, it’s the best combat sports adjacent / supportive program I’ve ever used. The app UX is simple and easy to understand, I’ve also bought and cross trained the sandbag program with groups of buddies in public places. The whole thing is incredibly valuable.

It’s a bummer that each workout block does not have links to the exercise videos. Train hard has a library in YouTube, but it’s hidden in the website and there is no search function other than scrolling forever. I know how to do most exercises but I like to verify I am doing it according to the programmer. Also, there is no daily explanation of methodology for the workouts, applying a “myo” concept is great… except it’s not explained very well. Feel like the programming is good, but application is not great especially compared to other similar programs. Bummer.

Phenomenal training programs. The TRAIN HARD team does a great job producing great workouts no matter what your fitness level.

I can’t sign up. The app tells me to click “here” to finish signing up and it just gives me either the email signup popup or does nothing after I dismiss that popup. I try to go to the checkout page and SugarWOD and then I just go in circles. There’s no option to add the programming to my cart . So I tried website it’s the same. I can’t find a support link on the website.l with email. The app support link in the iOS store for app Support gives me a 404. I did the programming before. I wanted to sign up again! Help. Thanks! Update. Actually, I tried the website again and for this time for some reason, I found a way to sign up. With my existing sugar wod account. Thanks

Like many folks here, I had no idea there was going to be such a hard transition to a new app. I really enjoyed the old app and the instructional videos. I was traveling when this forced transition took place and it was a pain to sign up remotely. The new signup process is far from straightforward. There are no instructional videos with the new app, it hangs often, and is very buggy. This morning, it took almost thirty seconds to open the app. This was after force closing it multiple times. It needs some work. I also miss the library of exercises. If charging more, the app and signup process should be seamless.

I’ve always liked Jason and I followed the NCFIT app programming off and on for a few years. The new program is missing a lot of the features that the old app/program had. Workout demos, daily training videos, a scaling guide, plus two versions of the daily workout (one Rx’d and one scaled). Daily workout also has accessory work/mobility built in. All those things are missing from the new program. Kind of a bummer. Still early though and maybe some of those things will be added in.

Amazing app, programming, and customer service!

Great to have an app like this that gives you zero thought and allow you to just workout. The best part is if you are feeling like an intense HIIT workout or maybe you want to lift some heavy weight. You just click to the mode you are feeling and bam… off to the races.

I’m enjoying the workouts so far!

The new Train Hard app has been great across the board. It checks all the boxes for me with great programming but I’m loving the community. One of things I miss most about going to a CrossFit gym is the camaraderie. Train Hard gives a little dose of that right in the app. On top of that, Khalipa and his team are active in the app, and quick to respond to questions about programming. I couldn’t be happier with Train Hard.
