HWPO - Training app

This thing is amazing. The design is well thought out, flawless execution, and every little detail has been put in place. From the tick box of what you’ve done training wise, the videos, both intro for the day, to the movement videos in case you weren’t sure or familiar with a new movement. And the percentage calculations just making your life easier.

Add all your PRs, and from there the program based all your future lifts off your original entries.

A great program indeed! I think I’ll stick to it for as long as possible. ❤️🦾

The programming is amazing, app functionality is zero

Program is “ok” at best. This is definitely geared to CrossFit guys/gals looking to add some strength, not powerlifters looking to progress. You can’t track accessory sets, reps or weights…this might be fine for some communities where they just rep out more, however, as a powerlifter I keep a detailed history of accessory work. As accessories work lbs come up each week, my weak points (what accessory work should be geared toward) improve thus improving my overall strength. The week tracking and inability to adjust is frankly annoying at best, you will see this repeated in almost all the comments. TLDR: If your an experienced strength athlete this app is not for you. Lack of detailed tracking makes it questionable for most in my opinion.

The programming of this app is excellent, workouts, the demonstration videos and coaching. The app itself has limited functionality. It does not allow for inputting individual weight for each set or how many reps completed, or to mark off each set completed. It does have a notes section, but if I have to keep track of that info in the notes section I might as well have a spreadsheet or a notebook. Also, having to have a separate account and login for gowod is inconvenient, everything for the workout should be ready to go. I was looking forward to starting the strong program but the functionality of the app just didn’t work for me. This is coming from someone who used the naked app for a few years, I have an understanding of these workouts and I was disappointed since I really wanted to focus on a powerlifting routine.

I have tried a few home programs for CrossFit, HWPO has the best app out of all of them. The Strong and 60 programs are laid out very well in the app and makes it easy to determine each segment of the days workout. I had better results after one cycle of the Strong program than after two years of in person CrossFit classes. I just started the 60 program, too early to tell results but the sections are all tied together nicely and it is enjoyable so far.

The app is amazing, the programming is amazing and the how to videos are too. The could be better with an in app timer For time,amraps , intervals the app does have other purchases features for warm up n cools down for the WOD which takes away from the app. fix these minor things and this would be the perfect app

Things I love Showing percentages Easy interface for different tracks Videos for all movements and briefing for the day Things I wish were better Benchmark history Specifics to how some workouts should be scored An option to switch days? Might be available but if you want to do Tuesday on a Wednesday, I wish there was an option to swap. Just an example. Overall. SugarWOD should take some cues from this app.
