The greatest app ever
This app has helped me take my life back. I was 460 lb and now I'm a nice 255 lb. It's worth every penny

Excellent app and coaching
I was a little skeptical because most of the marketing on coaching apps is a bit over the top. I was pleasantly surprised during the 7 day trial and subscribed. I’ve only done team Vitality so far and one cycle. It’s really good! Coach Brian is upbeat and explains movements well. Maybe a little too goofy for me, sometimes. :)
Took one star off for the interface having a slight learning curve. Logging your workouts will benefit you, but it took the first couple of weeks to learn it well enough that it didn’t feel like it broke the flow of the workout. Put in the effort, and there are physical and mental rewards.

Team Stevie has been a game changer for me!
I absolutely love Ladder! It makes it so easy to workout. I love to workout at home because I am a Mom of 2 with a full time job and it’s not always feasible for me to drive somewhere to workout. However, I always struggled because I didn’t know what workouts to do on what days and when to switch to another workout. Ladder does it all for you! With new workout drops every Sunday night. The community is also so encouraging- I love hopping on my team chat and talking to others about the workouts! The nutrition function has also made it so easy to track my calories. I see this being a long term lifestyle for me for the first time!

Effective and Varied
I didn’t want to like the program because I didn’t want to spend the $ but I love this app. While I was exercising consistently before this, Ladder made me want to start the day with exercise, getting up early for the first time in my life for it. AND these 20-30 min workouts produced results no other program had given me, in much faster time. My weight is stable, my body fat is down and my muscle is increasing—my body comp is really changing and I can see it, too. “Stronger not smaller?”—I hear you, Ladder, and I’m here for it.

THE BEST FITNESS APP!
This app has helped me keep track of literally everything down to nutrition all the way to the weight that I used for each individual workout. It has helped me stay accountable and help me lose up to 50 pounds so far I was skeptical at first but now after doing it for quite some time, I do not plan on ever going without it.

400 workouts in!
The most consistent I’ve ever been with any program. Appreciate all I have to do is show up. Workouts are planned, balanced and progressive. Badges, progress updates and series keep you motivated. Trainers are skilled, knowledgeable and positive. Shoutout to coach Sasha - I am the strongest I’ve been in my life - both mentally and physically.

The best workout platform out there!
I’ve been with ladder almost 2 years now and it is the most consistent I’ve been with a program from home. The app is so user friendly and it feels like I’m getting one on one coaching throughout the entire workout. Ladder is the best hands down and I love the added nutrition feature of the app.

First time
The program give you directions and offers swap out exercises for those that have difficulty do the original exercise. With my knee replacements it gives me a lot of different options to do.

Im a true believer in ladder!
Ladder is only workout program I’ve ever been consistent in with! It’s fun, challenging, engaging, and easily accessible. I’ve been consistently using it for over year and lost 20 pounds. Plus, I’ve changed my lifestyle to incorporate movement without sacrificing fun with friends, delicious meals, and a glass of wine here and there. I couldn’t recommend more for REAL people.

The First Program I’ve Actually Stuck With
I’ve had such a positive experience with the Ladder app, especially with Coach Kelly and Team Limitless! For the first time, I feel like I’ve truly been able to stay consistent with my workouts, and I actually enjoy going to the gym.
The community aspect is one of my favorite parts. Having the support, encouragement, and accountability from the team makes such a difference. I also love having the workouts planned out for me each week. It takes away the guesswork of figuring out what to do at the gym, while still giving me the flexibility to modify things when needed. The nutrition guidance built into the app is another huge plus and makes everything feel simple and manageable.
Coach Kelly and Team Limitless have created such a welcoming and motivating environment. I’m stronger, more consistent, and genuinely enjoying my fitness journey!

Ladder App
I love the encouragement and commitment from the coaches, and love not having to plan my workouts for the week. It makes it easy for busy parents and full time workers. I also like that I can join a team that fits my workout style and equipment I have at home.
