Thenics: Calisthenics Coach

I got this app no more than a few days ago, and immediately liked it. It's straightforward, easy to follow along, and knowing that what I am doing is literally going to push me forward to my goal means I don't feel like I'm doing things aimlessly. not every exercise in how you do it is perfectly clear, so sometimes I wonder if I have proper form or if I'm doing it right. they do, however, have a library of all the different moves/skills more deeply explained, so that helps. 😊

At first, I found the app really helpful as a beginner, just to start the journey and stay consistent with an easy planned workout. However, I found that the excercises for the planche were heavily flawed, where everything was training for improper form (training lower back and no protraction in the model excercise), this put my progress behind and slowed it down a lot. But if you aren't training advanced skills, this app is fine.

I've tried all the calisthenics workout apps by the YouTube gurus. they were extremely bad, triple the price, had no way to cancel and unresponsive support. this one is the best price, best value, and will automatically level you up when your ready so you never have to worry about what to do and when to do it

I'm cancelling my subscription before the free trial is up. I like the free version better and only wanted access to the 1-arm pushup series. I hate the "coach" thing and if I would have known there was no way to turn it off, I never would have entered my card number. The free version goes straight to the skill list, which is the only thing I want to work on. I know my schedule and my body better than your algorithm. The pro version is clunky and works against you if you don't want the coach.
