1. ★★★★★subscription and paid restrictions

   Destroys battery. Ladder is an amazing workout program that keeps me motivated and on track with my goals. However the app is an absolute battery drainer - my battery drops by 40% doing a workout. I shouldn’t have to charge my phone in the middle of the day just because I worked out. Other than this is this is a 10/10 workout program - if the battery issue was resolved I would give it 5 stars.

2. ★★★★★subscription and paid restrictions

   WARNING! Membership pricing issue!. Ladder is offering plans that they no longer truly support. In the membership drop-down, anything above the Pro + isn’t truly an option, although they will still charge you for it then 1)never respond to support tickets or 2)offer a refund for a product they no longer support. When I signed up, I thought the Elite + membership was an option since it was offered. Wrong. I come to find out plans were consolidated to only 2: Pro and Pro+. So despite taking my 500 dollars, I get nothing that comes with the Elite + plan, and they refuse to even respond to support inquiries or rectify the situation. Anyone wishing to sign up for Ladder, I implore you to research and read about the billing issues.

   Mostly great. I wish the food tracking was easier. Coming from Myfitnesspal, I am used to a more up to date database of foods to choose from. The AI component is nice though. I also really enjoy the Define team with Coach Maia

   Best app ever!. I’m going to keep this short and simple. If you want to get in shape, have strength gains, change your body composition…get on this app and get to work!

5. ★★★★★the app helps achieve the intended result

   Ladder blast. I really enjoy using the Ladder app. Coach Andre is amazing and I enjoy his attitude, makes doing all the workouts easier. The nutrition tracker is very nice, it has helped me lose 5lbs in the past month as I track all that I eat. The AI function to photograph food or nutrition labels for easier tracking is the best when I’m out to eat with coworkers.

6. ★★★★★overall positive experience· unspecific

   Best workout app yet. I’ve tried many apps for workouts and this one just stands on top. The workout some motivation, the timing, the modifications if you have the equipment or not. Totally worth the price.

7. ★★★★★overall positive experience· unspecific

   Love. Two weeks and I’m in love

8. ★★★★★overall positive experience· unspecific

   It’s very good for working out and also exercising. I like how it is just a bunch of workouts like squats sit-ups and all that stuff I really like it

9. ★★★★★overall positive experience· unspecific

   Life changing. Ladder has given me exactly what I needed to stay consistent and enjoy my training week after week. Lauren Kanski is my hero. I have so many friends asking me what I do to look like I do. I say Ladder and Kettle Bell style training.

10. ★★★★★overall positive experience· unspecific

    1 month in. So far this has been a positive experience. I’m a certified persons trainer myself but even personal trainers need a coach sometimes. I hit my 40s and hormonally things shifted and discipline to workout was difficult. This app has made the combo of strength training and Pilates so palatable yet challenging. Enjoying it so far.

11. ★★★★★overall positive experience· unspecific

    GREAT option. Love this app. I never used to know what to do in the gym and used to waste a lot or time. Now I feel confident and comfortable doing my routine with this app and love how it progresses each day and week. Totally worth the yearly subscription, much cheaper than a personal trainer.

12. ★★★★★overall positive experience· unspecific

    Love it. I really am enjoying the app. It’s everything I need to stay focused and get fit. Love that I can track my nutrition too. I’m on team endure and the workouts are exactly what I was looking for. Keeps me motivated!

13. ★★★★★overall positive experience· unspecific

    Obsessed. Love love love love love I am trying to get everyone I know on ladder! Obsessed with the results!

14. ★★★★★overall positive experience· unspecific

    Love Ladder app and workouts!. This app has been such a great find and way to hold myself accountable for getting in multiple workouts a week. I can use it at home or the gym. I really like how it connects seamlessly with my Spotify account. It’s very customizable with the workout styles/coaches you like, what equipment you have available, and how much time you have to put in for that day. I have referred a bunch of friends to this program. I think it can work for anyone beginner to advanced. Highly recommend!

15. ★★★★★overall positive experience· unspecific

    Saw results so quickly!. Love this app, the UI is amazing! I love the workouts and the results are amazing!

16. ★★★★★overall positive experience· unspecific

    Best one - Hands Down. I’ve tried lots of apps - probably over the years about 8-10 and this one by far is the best ( I thought about listing a few but then felt bad doing that to other business so I’ll add here - I’ve tried various ind. trainer apps and my first app was Sweat) . This app is by far awesome. It’s got the journaling and I love the various trainers to choose from to all kinds of workouts, I like hearing them in my ear motivating me to push it out, focusing on my form for each rep, I also like the community in Ladders. We actually meet up to workout outside the app. I also love the food menus. The change in week to week with new focus on where to see cut, or growth in reps etc. I honestly can’t say enough. Do the trial and I promise you’ll love it!!!!

17. ★★★★★overall positive experience· unspecific

    Awesome. Love the LADDAR app helps keep me accountable and I’m always excited to work out and can’t wait to see what my next workout is. Coach Nicole is awesome and keeps you motivated during the workout which is a huge help!!

18. ★★★★★overall positive experience· unspecific

    It works. I love this app. I’ve transformed so much. You just need weights for most of it. I love it.

19. ★★★★★overall positive experience· unspecific

    Obsessed. I was an aerobics instructor for years. I was a marathon runner for years. I have always worked out regularly even after having 3 kids, but these workouts are just what my body needed. I think I was overworking out, not doing enough core, and def not eating enough protein. I’m not at goal weight yet, but my shorts and jeans are finally fitting better because my core is tighter. Consistency and eating enough protein really is key. This app is great to hold you accountable for less of those cheat days, that do add up. I love ladder and as a former instructor I’m picky about classes. I highly recommend you giving it a try!

20. ★★★★★overall positive experience· unspecific

    At last. I am an OG who has tried almost every program out there for 25+ years. Ladder is different. The program ease and coaching style is fantastic. Love this app and will continue progressing with Ladder.

25. ★★★★★overall positive experience· unspecific

    Best Workout App. I love everything about this app and there is something for every athletic skill level. From beginners to advanced!

26. ★★★★★clear and easy workflow

    Best Workout App Ever. I’ve used a few apps over the years and none of them really stuck. I’ve been using the Notes app to plan my workout for weeks at a time, but after 6 years I got bored and wanted to try something new. I’m in love. I love the gentle gamification of this with cheers and a widget that shows how many days you’ve worked out, etc. it’s overall very well designed and has become my one stop shop app for all sorts of fitness and nutrition tracking.

27. ★★★★★overall positive experience· unspecific

    A Great Coach and Accountability Partner in my Pocket!. I’ve been using Ladder consistently for about 17 weeks now and I’ve been experiencing gains on gains on gains. A gain in my confidence for showing up and wanting that green bubble after every workout. Gains in my muscles and definition. I haven’t lost weight but my clothing fits better, I’m showing more skin during the summer because of the definition in my body and again more confident in myself. I’ve also gained a new respect for weight lifting. I’ve been a HITT girly forever but my body has changed and I was craving something new. So, I selected a coach based on my goals and it’s been a great match. I’m dumbbells only for now and I love the variety of workouts and different seasons too. You’re not doing the same thing over and over. Even the name of the workouts change weekly. The coaches also listen to their teammates and will make adjustments. That’s a big differentiator from Ladder against other fitness apps like NTC and Apple Fitness. It’s more than on demand workouts. PROs: Great workouts, coaches, and a very active community. From the group chats to the hubs within the platform, conversations are always happening. Coaches and teammates are cheering you on and for and meetups in person are possible. Another pro is the nutrition tracker! It’s ssooo easy to track your water intake, calories, and much more. The widgets on my phone are a great help to track my steps, water intake and calories as well. CONs, I would hope that if I choose not to do a ladder workout, I could still get credit so I don’t ruin my green streak. Some days I’m unable to stick with the program, but I’m still active. So if the bubble is green for ladder maybe a different color if you hit your exercise goal outside of the app. If you’re considering if Ladder is worth the investment, for me it is! It’s a very responsive community, and does a great job merging the the digital world and reality.

28. ★★★★★clear and easy workflow

    Easy Peasy Lemon Squeezy. I absolutely love the Ladder app! It is easy to navigate - you can switch teams to fit your goal needs, you can modify the sets if needed, there’s a chat to ask extra questions and to communicate with other users… It’s just amazing all around!

29. ★★★★★overall positive experience· unspecific

    Great Training Program. I love the Ladder app!!! I like having structure and a plan when I workout. There is no guess work or just doing random workouts.

30. ★★★★★overall positive experience· unspecific

    BEST APP EVER. I am obsessed with the Ladder app. Extremely well thought out and executed product design. Captivates you, energizes you, and keeps you coming back more consistently than ever before. This is no ordinary fitness app and if I could work for this coming, I would in a heartbeat!
