Vitruvian

You can’t see your previous workouts anymore. So you cannot see quickly which exersizes you have already done that week. You cannot start your favorite workouts anymore like you used too. Terrible. Revert these changes!!

Awesome hardware but the app has stalled for more than a year. The UX isn’t great and without an expensive subscription even sounds cues don’t work. The app pushes you their content which might justify the price, but that’s not the use case for a lot of people.

Amazing machine, I stopped my gym subscription and workout 6x a week on the Vitruvian now

I love working out, but going to the gym is time consuming. And time is a luxury as an entrepreneur. With the Vitruvian app I can pick a class from the extensive class library with one of their trainers, stream it to our TV and follow along. Or I can do one of my workouts which I made with their workout builder. Double efficiency at half the time!

Nothing else on market with the weight capacity and build quality. Application seems to be aggressively develop at the moment. There is a new isokinetic mode in beta and frequent quality of life and big improvements. Recently launch is the web portal for users to list out their wishes. Heading in the right direction. Highly recommend.

The app works pretty well but a little buggy and I would like the ability to alter the weight/reps mid-workout without having to stop/start the workout.

I’ve owned the machine for over a year. The hardware is great, no complaints there but it doesn’t work without the software. And saying the software needs improvement would be an overstatement. Updates to the software are infrequent sometimes many months apart. Even then, there are small changes. While overall, the UI has improved the experience, Laginess, and overall errors have increased. Once your subscription runs out even the most basic safety features are paywalled (such as sound to indicate your reps, end of range of motion, and beginning of set) you are limited to a just lift mode that is quite buggy and doesn’t even have any of the new modes that the machine is otherwise capable of handling. All this has led to me too contemplating selling this, going with another device or an old-school squat rack. I’ll probably stick it out for another few months, but I’m almost at my wits end.

I have ten years working in software so I’m use to the standard troubleshooting steps. However the app regularly glitches out leaving me unable to finish my workouts without spending as much time working on the app as I do actually working out. I want to believe in the Vitruvian but it consistently lets me down. I recommend the Tonal instead because in my experience it is reliable and I am able to complete workouts on it just fine.

I would recommend Vitruvian to people, but the app is not good. I get random bugs, especially with confirmation sounds not playing for reps and the latest version won’t play set completion sounds. The app also regularly disables sounds and I have to toggle them back on for some reason. It’s somewhat of a safety hazard if you’re expecting another rep and apply heavy force with zero weight on the cables. The app has a lot of workout options, but this is a pro and con. The navigation is not the most streamlined since accessory options for a workout aren’t consolidated, but I appreciate how many options you do have available. Drop down to pick your preferred accessory to consolidate the list a bit would help. I also find the app won’t easily let you dismiss it from your screen or the Dynamic Island if you need to end a workout before the last exercise. This happens consistently and should be pretty obvious and easily testable by the developers as something to fix. Hope the app continues to get better, as the device is pretty solid. Keep trying please!

Great reliable machine. Responsive team whenever app is acting up(rarely happens). Just overall 10 out of 10 with this machine great workouts if you wanna make them up on your own and awesome programs if you just want to switch it up.
