### "Very promising "

May 13, 2026

4.0

Generally fantastic, and a solid starting point that is extremely affordable. Very glad that the app hasn’t been hit by the AI of it all yet. A very promising platform that has a lot of potential.

Pros

The exercise library is fantastic, assigning programmes is straightforward, the metrics and insights are detailed, especially how it links with Apple Health and also takes data from other fitness accessories to give a more complete snapshot at any given training interval.

Cons

I think the mobile app needs more functionality and true dedication put into it. A web-based app doesn’t suffice and makes checking in on clients more difficult.

### "Love it! Give it a try "

May 10, 2026

5.0

Love it! Absolutely can not reccomend it enough and the lead tracker and link to an enquiry page included absolutely incredible!

Pros

I love hevy! I used it for my own training and tracking and when i was told about "hevy coaching" i instantly had to try it! Both me and my clients absolutely love it

Cons

I think the main thing that could do with some improvment is the layout on drsktop it sometimes cuts off towards the edge of the screen and no way to scroll to the right

### "Great platform to use! "

November 8, 2025

5.0

Very easy, simple to use, my clients love the format and videos that are in each workout. I also use Hevy for my own personal tracker too!

Pros

The software is super easy to use, my clients enjoy the platform, and it’s so easy to build new workouts on!

Cons

I don’t have many cons to go off, maybe just that I can’t access programs I built on my personal page. Another is there’s not many options for nutrition or meal planning.

### "Great app for all personal trainers! "

March 1, 2026

5.0

It has been a game changer for creating and tracking client workouts for me! It is so much easier than following a client around with a clipboard as I used when I first started training!

Pros

It is easy to use and even my clients who are not tech savvy catch on quickly how it works. I like the exercise library and how easy it is to add my own custom exercises. I also like that I am able to make a program library and store my many programs to use with various clients.

Cons

I think it would be better if you could have more clients on the app than ten for the base fee. Maybe 15-20? When you are staring out as an PT every dollar counts.

### "Good but needs a few small tweaks"

May 18, 2026

4.0

overall positive for the price point and easy to use as a coach. So many apps have useless features where as this is good for training.

Pros

I like how fun it is for the user. My clients say its easy to use and the layout is user friendly for beginners.

Cons

I would really like a way to review client progress on a lift within the plan editing screen. Having to switch tabs or pages or write down weights or reps can be a bit more time consuming. So having a way to review the progress of the clients assigned to that programme from that screen would be good. Or even just their previously attempt autofilled would be good.

### "Excellent coaching app"

May 4, 2026

5.0

Excellent experience so far. Very easy to use and a simple interface for clients to interact with also.

Pros

Ease of use. Scalable pricing structure. Simple user interface. Have really enjoyed using the Hevy platform so far. Has worked seamlessly for a short pivot to remote coaching.

Cons

Could do with some more exercises in library as had to custom build a lot. Some of the exercise instructions could be better. The Hevy coach app would be better if possible to see people's completed sessions from the app

### "Streamlined program delivery for solo PTs"

June 16, 2026

5.0

As a solo personal trainer running my own business, Hevy Coach has made program delivery and client tracking genuinely easy. It bridges the gap between writing programs and having clients actually follow them, which is something a lot of platforms get wrong. Highly recommend it for any PT looking for a simple, effective coaching tool.

Pros

Hevy Coach is a great tool for managing client programs as a personal trainer. Being able to build and send programs directly through the app makes the whole process so much more streamlined. Clients can log their sessions and I can see their progress in real time, which saves a lot of back-and-forth. There's also a built-in chat feature so I can communicate with clients directly through the app, which keeps everything in one place. The exercise library is solid and the interface is clean and easy to navigate. Clients pick it up quickly with minimal explanation needed.

Cons

The only thing I'd love to see added eventually is more branding customisation options, but it's a minor wish rather than a real issue — the platform genuinely does what it promises and does it well.

### "Excellent app"

June 15, 2026

5.0

My overall experience with Hevy Coach has been excellent. It has become one of my primary tools for delivering exercise programs to patients and athletes. The platform is reliable, user-friendly, and continuously helps improve communication, adherence, and training organization. It provides a professional experience for both coaches and clients while saving time and simplifying program management. I highly recommend it to fitness professionals, personal trainers, and healthcare providers involved in exercise prescription and rehabilitation.

Pros

Hevy Coach has been an outstanding platform for managing my clients' training programs. The interface is intuitive, easy to use, and allows me to create highly personalized workout plans efficiently. I especially appreciate the ability to track progress, monitor adherence, and make adjustments in real time. The visual presentation of workouts is excellent and makes it easy for clients to understand and follow their programs. Overall, it has significantly improved my workflow as a Sports Medicine and Rehabilitation Physician and coach.

Cons

There are very few things I dislike about Hevy Coach. If I had to mention something, I would appreciate more advanced customization options for rehabilitation-focused programs, including exercise progressions, mobility protocols, and clinical outcome tracking. Additional reporting features and integrations with wearable devices could make the platform even more powerful for healthcare professionals.

### "Client interaction is so clean!"

June 3, 2026

5.0

Will definitely continue as having an easy way to interact with the work you put in the background matters so much.

Pros

The cleanest way I have come across for my clients to view and follow their training programs. I was tired of watching my athletes try and use spreadsheets on their phones mid workout.

Cons

A way to program overload into the pre filled sections. A work around was to just write it into the notes along with the sets/reps.

### "Hevy Coach Review"

May 12, 2026

4.0

I have had little to no issues with it. The one time I did support was quick and professional. Programming has been very easy and direct and I don’t really have any problems.

Pros

I like how seamless it is, very user friendly. I also love how it connects to the Hevy app and makes it super easy for clients to see their program.

Cons

I wish there were ways to do week by week programming rather than just routines. If I want to swap days or anything I want it to be a little more structured.

### "Easy, simple & intuitive "

September 25, 2024

5.0

From someone who has been working on Excel this was a well upgrade to do my job: easy, simple, quickly.

Pros

The UX is clean, intuitive to use it, I'm from México and regardless the language barrier (and obviously the fact that you can change it in the app) it was so easy to try it the first time, for me and for my training clients. I love that as a couch I have an overview of my clients workouts with all the data you can get.

Cons

The only con is not having an app for coaches to use it at phone, only by desk but I mean it works great, this could be more helpful in a future. Another con it's that not all the exercises have a video for showing how to do the movement but it's ok, I guess this will be updated eventually.

### "Extremely User Friendly! "

September 8, 2024

5.0

It's better than any other coaching software I've used for training clients. Plus, you can't beat the price. All of my clients love using Hevy! Great app guys.

Pros

From the perspective of the coach and client, it's extremely user friendly.

Cons

It would be great if Hevy added a nutrition component, or had integrated it into sites like Cronometer...so it could be an all-in-one for coaching dealing with client nutrition and training.

May 7, 2024

It has completly rejuvenated my PT and online coaching career, i work so more effective. I would recommend this to every coach/PT who want to take there career too the next level

Pros

The look and feel factor is the best i ever tried. interactive, motivating for the clients for me its easy too use and it has 10x my ability to take on new clients.

Cons

With great customer support, and every day getting new features i cant really say any thing is in dislike. Most of my needs are being met, and my wishes are being fulfilled one update at a time. its actualy hard to say what i like the most beacuse they keep adding new stuff

### "Amazing App"

April 3, 2024

5.0

My experience has been great. The app is easy to use and understand. The client data is so easy to put in and keep track of. Chatting with my clients is so easy!

Pros

I love the ease of this app, compared to previous fitness apps I have used. I can change things and add things quickly. I can check on clients and chat. The clients have all loved it after I switched to this app due to being able to now have other people to see progress and keep them motivated! The app lets you friend others and follow them! I love it!

Cons

The only downfall I see in the app is that it doesn't have a "nutrition" section for clients. It would be great if they added a spot where I can add someone's macros/calories etc to their accounts.

Switched from

[ABC Trainerize](https://www.capterra.com/p/140262/Trainerize/)

I didn't like the app that much, my clients were confused about how to use it, and adding and deleting stuff was not very easy.

### "Great App for Coaches and Personal Use"

August 6, 2025

5.0

I’ve been using the Hevy app for almost a month now, and so far it’s been doing exactly what it’s supposed to do. The interface is clean and user-friendly, making it easy to navigate even for beginners. Assigning workouts to clients is simple and efficient, and I especially appreciate how easy it is to create and add custom exercises. As a coach, this saves me a lot of time and helps me stay organized. Overall, Hevy has been a solid tool in my coaching workflow, highly recommend it for both personal use and client management!

Pros

User-friendly interface – easy to navigate even for first-timers Custom exercise creation – perfect for personalized programming Easy client workout assignment – makes managing multiple clients simple Clean layout and design – minimal distractions, focused on training Progress tracking – helpful graphs and history to monitor performance

Cons

Some features might feel basic if you’re looking for in-depth analytics Limited integration with other fitness platforms or wearables Would love to see more automation or scheduling options for client workouts

### "Good app for Personal Trainers"

January 30, 2026

4.0

It's been a good experience for me and my clients. We're able to edit the exercises during the sessions.

Pros

I like that the clients can see their workouts, start the sessions, it it shows the overall time, and what were the previous weights used on the previous session

Cons

Unfortunately, the exercise library doesn't have a lot of the exercises I wanted so I had to customize and create a lot of them

### "Coaching with Simplicity"

June 5, 2025

5.0

Simple, straight forward; There are lots of coaching platform out there.. but I would say, Im good with this one so I'll be sticking to this and would highly recommend it with my co-coaches.

Pros

Ive tried multiple platforms, and I would say this is the simpliest coaching app I've ever used so far and I love it. Now I transferred my clients to this platform and been using it since then.

Cons

I hope they can put Total Muscle Mass Measurement because its something that I track with my clients, not just bodyweight and fats. Whole Body Composition updates in it would be a game changer for us Trainers.

### "Hevy is for heavy lifters!"

February 26, 2025

4.0

Overall, using the app has been great so far. I like the look of the interface and my clients have been enjoying the ease of use on their side. Their customer service has been very responsive, which gives me confidence that they will continue to make improvements based on feedback.

Pros

I love the animations for each movement that not only show how the exercise is done, but also highlights which muscles are being used. One of the best things about Hevy is the data tracking. I love seeing the progress being made in graph form. I know someone people have commented about the lack of nutrition and step tracking, but as someone who was specifically looking for a much simpler interface, this was much better and less bulky for me than other apps.

Cons

It would be great to be able to edit workouts on the mobile app, and not have to fully rely on the website. Also, when a client accepts my app invitation, they are randomly assigned a name, like formalcheck4198 or something, and I have no ability to change it on the coach-end. I have to ask my client to change it, and it would be a lot better if I could just change it from the coach app.

Pros

### "See Results. Use HevyCoach."

March 5, 2025

5.0

The HevyCoach app makes my role as a trainer a breeze. It’s so simple to use and has a TON of proven programs & exercises that I can use to fit my clients needs. The PR medals that it rewards at the end of a workout are little accomplishments for my clients to chase. It’s user-friendly and packed full of helpful statistics to ensure success.

Pros

I absolutely love the HevyCoach Program & Excercise Libraries. An insane value to offer clients!

Cons

My only wish was that Hevy got into nutrition tracking. Hevy does everything better than anyone and it would nice to have everything all in one place.

Highly positive, I will continue to use this platform to coach my clients virtually.

Pros

It’s user interface is very easy to use and clear in its description of exercises, helping newer clients understand exercises easily.

Cons

Not much for me to dislike, just that it would be great if they can continually update their database of exercises. It would be good if programs could be assigned to specific dates of the week, and remind the client to do that specific programme to keep them on track as well.

Overall I am very pleased with hevy, with a few additions it would be absolutely perfect, would still highly recommend this to any personal trainer

Pros

How easy it is for my clients and how if they aren’t training with me it gives them a visual image to help if they forget a certain exercise.

Cons

The only con is not having a app for myself to use when coaching my clients that automatically updates their plans afterwards

### "Workout Goals"

January 29, 2024

5.0

Fantastic. I always recommend this to frends, family and even new people i see working out at the gym that have just started their fitness journey

Pros

Ive gone through quite a lot of products that claim to do what Hevy does, all of them fell short. I love this App! I always create new workouts for myself and the lads im working with and they seem to enjoy it as well. The ability to add custom excerises is also a massive plus for me.

Cons

Only 1 or 2 minor things. i would like a notification if a workout has been done by someone im following. Maybe a more constant updated library of excerises. Some of the common ones like Internal/external rotators for shoulders are not there.
