Personal trainer Health, Wellness and Fitness Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Hevy Coach App review from personal trainer" November 10, 2025 5.0 It is a bit adjusting going from different app to this one, but overall it is very good and easy to use. Also clients report that for them it’s easier to use rather than competitor apps they have tried with other coaches. Pros I like how user-friendly it is for creating a program, tracking the progress throughout the process, putting in the weights and also rep ranges as well as giving prescribed RPE. Nice that it shows the muscle groups that are worked out the most and also shows to the client the progress throughout the weeks and gives them rewards. Also, the exercise library is pretty good, but I for sure love that it allows me to edit it and also add my own videos of the demonstration and so on. Cons For me this app little bit lacks in possibilities for client to give feedback about their workout with the videos. Client can give feedback in chat with coach, but it would be nice that for each exercise in that specific training session client would be able to add their video for technique check. Switched from [TrueCoach](https://www.capterra.com/p/155784/truecoach/) Felt like TrueCoach lacked possibilities for better tracking progress throughout the exercises - if you didn’t put a specific exercise as a measurement to track, it didn’t track it on its own. Also it didn’t track overall workload which is important for me. So colleague of mine recommended me to try Hevy Coach because he and his clients are loving it. Review Source Aries Y. Online Fitness Coach Health, Wellness and Fitness Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "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 Review Source ES Ethan S. Owner Professional Training & Coaching Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Room To Grow" April 23, 2025 4.0 My business partner and I have had a good experience with Hevy, however, it has a lot of room to grow. I'm hopeful for its future, as it has a very solid client app side, but a lacking coaching app/browser side. There are simple features that, if added, could continue to elevate Hevy above the competition. For a small team, this app has a bright future. Pros Hevy has a very appealing and easy-to-use software, allowing for customization and interaction with clients. The grow option is unique and useful tool for growing and catching leads. Cons There are lots of features lacking from Hevy that competitors have implemented already, such as: Group messaging, Nutrition integration, workout scheduling for clients, training session scheduling, and payment integration. Alternatives considered [ABC Trainerize](https://www.capterra.com/p/140262/Trainerize/)[TrueCoach](https://www.capterra.com/p/155784/truecoach/) Reason for choosing Hevy Coach Pricing and appeal of software, and ease of customization to create a team. Switched from [ABC Trainerize](https://www.capterra.com/p/140262/Trainerize/) Trainerize is clunky and slow, premade exercise videos are limited and vary too much. Hevy was also more in our budget.

Coach Sports Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Hevy app practical tool for delivery of programs for teams " February 15, 2026 4.0 Positive experience for both me and team members who I coach. Would be good to have a team function where we have 'follow' groups based on membership of the team. Pros Hevy Coach allows me to manage a number of players with differing programs fairly efficiently and allows them to complete their workouts as prescribed and with variations, efficiently with the clients getting the Pro version of the app too. Cons I'd like some of the features on the web available on the app and on the available on the web. I'd also like a few different price points - maybe 1-5, 6-10, 11-19, 21-29 etc, Review Source MN Mark N.

Clients have found it straightforward and it presents a much cleaner interface and logging experience than my previous workout tracker Cons Only minor downsides that since workarounds but it would be nice to updates made. Only 1 progress photo is able to be uploaded per check in so in order to add a front, side and back view photo they must be logged on seperate days rather than all at once. When updating programs I need to have two windows open as it doesn’t show the previous workouts sets, reps and RPE while editing. So one window has the client last workout and the other window has the edit program. Still very effective but I had to find the solution myself Switched from [Notion](https://www.capterra.com/p/186596/Notion/) Not specifically designed for the use case Review Source Alex G. Personal trainer Health, Wellness and Fitness Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "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 Switched from [Google Sheets](https://www.capterra.com/p/169718/Google-Sheets/)[Microsoft Excel](https://www.capterra.com/p/176574/Excel/) Hevy is better for time managment as creating my own spread sheets was getting very time consuming Review Source OB Oliver B. Personal Trainer Health, Wellness and Fitness Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Making PT Easy" February 15, 2026 5.0 Pros It's simple and easy to use, and excellent for writing and presenting strength training plans. The heat maps for session plans is a great feature, helping to make sure there are no blind spots. It also has an extensive list of measurement you can take, so body composition tracking is really good. Honestly though, the thing I've appreciated most is how simple it is to use. While there are some features I'd like down the road, it does what it does well and takes a lot of the headaches out of the process. Cons Limited options for presenting AMRAPS and circuit style training. Habit and nutrition tracking would be great additions, too.

The other options felt bloated and more effort to get started with. Review Source HJ Hunter J. Personal Trainer Professional Training & Coaching Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "The Best Coaching App" February 9, 2026 5.0 I've been on many coaching apps before and using Hevy myself for the past 4 years I can say this is definitely the best app to use if you're looking for affordable and easy to manage Pros The variety of exercises you can choose from in their library, with the options to create your own exercises. It also it fantastic in managing your clients, seeing what they're are up to and being able to track all their workouts Cons I wish the Hevy Coach app had the same dashboard as the Hevy web browser settings as it would be a lot easier to check and manage all my clients through one app Switched from [Everfit](https://www.capterra.com/p/202837/Everfit/) Was very hard to use, with Hevy it's so much easier for me and the clients Review Source Gerardo R. head coach Health, Wellness and Fitness Used the software for: I used a free trial ### "Excellent app with phenomenal usefulness for a coach" February 3, 2026 5.0 Easy-to-understand and easy-to-use routine system for students. Excellent animations of the basic exercises you can find in a gym. Pros Simplicity with excellent options, I loved being able to see the lifted tonnage and the version in Spanish. Cons The community is somewhat limited and I can't upload other types of workouts like WODs, tabatas, etc. Review Source VR Verified Reviewer Profesor de Educación Física Sports Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Excelente servicio!" July 14, 2025 5.0 Mi experiencia es genial. Hace mi vida de Coach mucho más fácil, las rutinas son más personalizadas, puedo incentivar y dar mejores indicaciones a mis alumnos. Pros Hevy proporciona una facilidad de uso como pocas apps. El armado de rutinas, la interfaz super visual, los reconocimientos con medallas, es muy fácil de enseñar, y muy fácil de aprender para mis alumnos, es muy fácil de implementar. Tiene una biblioteca de ejercicios muy completa, es muy fácil de crear o subir si algo raramente no está, y las funciones de RPE, rango de repeticiones, son mucho más específicas y profundas a la hora de buscar el mejor rendimiento y optimizar a los alumnos. El precio es accesible, como decimos en Argentina, se paga sola. Gracias, Hevy, por hacer Hevy Coach, soy usuaria hace muchos años, y ahora usarla como Coach es todo un privilegio y emoción. Cons No veo ninguna desventaja a la hora de usar la app. Lo único que podría agregar es un apartado "a distancia", para que los alumnos puedan subir videos. No veo que haya problemas grotezcos, están muy bien las funciones y demases. Review Source MA Mohammad A.

HEVY Support team is active and helping well. i believe they will add some of these supports i mentioned. Pros Simple & easy to use. i can track clients. customizing workout plan with the video is the top one. Uploading progress picture and comparison option is super feature to hold client accountable. Cons Nutrition tracking part missing, not able to upload more than one progress picture in the same day. Not able to make circuit program , only super set available. i wanted to put headline for group of exercise, i know "note" is there but i would love to create the category in the exercise program. Alternatives considered [ABC Trainerize](https://www.capterra.com/p/140262/Trainerize/) Reason for choosing Hevy Coach seems complicated, expensive and not much option for customization Review Source Facundo D. Personal Trainer Health, Wellness and Fitness Used the software for: I used a free trial ### "Una app práctica para organizar mis planes de entrenamiento" February 25, 2026 5.0 Heavy Coach es una app que cumple bien con lo que necesito como entrenador. Me permite organizar y enviar los planes de entrenamiento a mis alumnos de forma clara y práctica. La interfaz es sencilla y eso hace que sea fácil de usar tanto para mí como para ellos. No es algo revolucionario, pero funciona bien y me ayuda a mantener ordenado el trabajo diario. Estoy conforme con cómo responde para mi dinámica de trabajo. Pros La practicidad para poder dar mis rutinas a todos mis alumnos y que puedan verla reflejada. Ya que esto me permite ganar tiempo en cuanto a la variedad de ejercicios. Cons El precio. Me parece muy pero muy costoso ya que yo vivo en Argentina. Esto aún sigue generándome cierta duda respecto a contratar un plan full. Review Source DA Dario A. Personal Trainer Sports Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Easy to Use coaching software " March 3, 2026 5.0 So far my experience with Hevy coach has been positive and my clients have been enjoying the switch! Pros Hevy coach gives both coach’s and clients a easy to use solution solution to coaching both in person and online, the interface is easy to use and covers the main basis of assigning programs, logging body weight/ other measurements and tracking progress clients get a video demonstration of the exercise to give them a quick reminder of form Cons The aspects I would say Hevy coach would need to improve on is being able to log nutritional data for your clients as well as a bette way to track/ Add cardiovascular fitness workouts e.g. Running, swimming etc Review Source AL Amanda L. Personal Trainer Health, Wellness and Fitness Used the software for: I used a free trial ### "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 Review Source MB Manu B. Coach Health, Wellness and Fitness Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Best one I've used build by a confidence inspiring team" February 19, 2025 5.0 4.5 stars and I have high hopes for what these guys are building. Can't wait to see where it'll be in 6 months/1 year Pros Responsiveness of the app. I has been clearly developed by skilled engineers that know what they are doing. Also love how quick their customer support is. I had a minor issue and \[sensisitve content hidden\] and one of the engineers immediately jumped on it. They know what they're doing. Cons They are still on their early days and they clearly ensure that what they release to us is of top quality (unlike other coaching apps that just add features upon features and then nothing works). That said, I wish they focused a bit more on how efficient it is to review workouts and to give feedback to clients. The experience is currently seemless but it there is room for improvements on the visibility and efficiency side of things Alternatives considered [TrueCoach](https://www.capterra.com/p/155784/truecoach/) Reason for choosing Hevy Coach Price, features, reliability. The only positive thing was customer support. Pretty sure they test things in production instead of internally before releasing. Felt like a house of cards. Switched from [Coach Catalyst](https://www.capterra.com/p/187707/Coach-Catalyst/) CoachCatalyst was very poorly build. Slow. A fair of unusable features. Review Source SB Stefan-Ovidiu B. ADMINISTRATOR Professional Training & Coaching Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Great app for both coaches and clients" December 18, 2025 5.0 Pros I really like the Hevy app. It’s very easy to use, both for me as a coach and for my clients, which makes workout tracking simple and intuitive. I can easily follow the full history of workouts, which is extremely helpful for monitoring progress over time. Another big plus is the ability to customize exercises and add my own videos. This gives me a lot of flexibility when creating programs and allows my clients to clearly understand each exercise. Cons One improvement that would make the app even better would be the option to create custom intensity techniques. For example, being able to add and label techniques like partial repetitions (or other advanced methods) would be very useful for more advanced training programs.

Pros It’s very user friendly for me and my clients. It’s very simple and you can out in your own exercises so you can always get the point across Cons Can’t put an RPE under 6. As a powerlifting coach in earlier weeks on compounds we often have light rpe for form and technique work so being able to out RPE under 6 would be very useful. Review Source PK Parmjit K. Personal trainer Health, Wellness and Fitness Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Great app for Personal trainers and clients! " May 10, 2025 5.0 Fantastic! So far so good. Easy to use, set individual programs and track client progress too! Also like that you can make adjustments when needed during the workouts too! Pros So far this app has been amazing. My clients have transitioned over have loved it too and have found it easy to use. Cons It can have more exercises in the library. Alternatives considered [Everfit](https://www.capterra.com/p/202837/Everfit/) Reason for choosing Hevy Coach Better price and seemed a better product Switched from [ABC Trainerize](https://www.capterra.com/p/140262/Trainerize/) Still have this for my online clients but it's too expensive for just PT clients and not PT and nutrition. Review Source NS Nico S. Founder Sports Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Great coaching platform to the best workout app out there." May 19, 2025 5.0 Pros It integrates with the regular Hevy app, which is the best workout tracker I've used so far (and I'm pretty serious about lifting). It allows me to program and track workouts for my clients in that app, which is just awesome. Cons It's still new, so a few features are not completely fleshed out, but I would have to be really nitpicky. It's not cheap, but if you use it professionally the cost is negligible. Review Source PA Pablo A. Coach Health, Wellness and Fitness Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "The best fitness app of the moment" June 3, 2025 5.0 I liked it so much that I didn't want to use any other. I know there's a very famous one, but it's more expensive, and I don't see how it could beat Hevy. Pros Its minimalism and how easy it is to use, sometimes less is more and in this case it is fulfilled but it does not mean that it does not have functions and capabilities. Cons Sometimes the weights are mixed up between lb/kg, which can be confusing, depending on whether you're using the app or the web version. The illustrative/attached videos are also somewhat hidden within the exercise. Switched from [Everfit](https://www.capterra.com/p/202837/Everfit/) It's quite comprehensive, but trying to mix everything together becomes somewhat complex. Furthermore, you have to assign the plan by day or week; Hevy always leaves this within the user's reach.

It's simple UI makes it easy to navigate, and I use all the available features. Pros I appreciate the ease of planning and recording workouts. The exercise library is extensive and I love the option to add custom exercises. Cons The mobile app is quite basic so I can't access many features when I'm on the move. It would be great if routines could be greyed out once completed (some times client is confused which one to select). Review Source BTR Brian Tomas R.

Tanto planes de ejercicio totalmente personalizados, lo que no solo mejora la progresión de cada persona en el tiempo, sino que también ayuda a que los alumnos se mantengan motivados y no abandonen su planificacion y objetivo El diseño de la aplicación es increíblemente hermoso, tanto en su app como web. La interfaz es intuitiva y rápida La biblioteca de ejercicios y planificaciones es otra de sus grandes ventajas, ya que permite acceder fácilmente a ideas para estructurar y adaptar los entrenamientos, haciendo el proceso de planificación mucho más eficiente y creativo Mi experiencia con esta app ha sido realmente satisfactoria y útil, cumpliendo completamente con su propósito y mejorando significativamente mi labor como entrenador! Muchas gracias por tanta dedicación Pros Lo que mas me ha gustado es la facilidad con la que pueden armar toda la planificacion, poder cargar tus propios ejercicios y videos, eso esta increible!

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. Review Source ZV Zac V. Owner, Head Coach and Personal Trainer Health, Wellness and Fitness Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Hevy Coach Review" October 4, 2024 4.0 Overall experience with Hevy Coach has been positive, and clients say they love it. Pros Firstly I love Hevy Coach's interface! It is smooth, clean, intuitive, and easy to use! This is what mainly drew me to Hevy Coach in the first place. Writing client programs is also really easy due to the powerful workout builder. On computer, you get a really nice dashboard of how many clients you have, who's been active & inactive in the last 7 days, and which of your clients have completed a workout, and some other details. There is also a chat feature fully built into Hevy Coach, so you don't need another messaging platform to coach your clients. Cons When clients accept your invitation to Hevy, they are given a random username such as "canuck79" or "swift\_calf30180", which is not editable by you as the coach afterwards. As a coach, this makes it extremely difficult to keep track of your clients in the app. There are currently no stretches in the Exercise Library, so if you're a coach who likes to prescribe stretches to your client, you'll have to do it elsewhere. There is also currently no method of prescribing any sort of nutrition/calories/macros to your clients, so if that is part of your service, you'll need to find a different method of doing so. The chat functionality is very, very basic at the moment. Text, emojis, photos & videos are all available. Sending hyperlinks, read receipts, emoji reacts and the ability to "reply" to specific messages are all missing at the moment.

Owner and coach Sports Used the software for: I used a free trial ### "Best app for my specific needs" March 23, 2025 5.0 I love it. I know this app will improve more and more. Pros I love that the workout programs don’t have to be linked to a specific day. Apps that start screaming “you missed your workout” almost drive me nuts. This app doesn’t have that nonsense. Awesome! Cons The coach app could be better. I would like to be able to track clients progress there as well and I’d like notifications when they complete something. Switched from [Harbiz](https://www.capterra.com/p/201790/DudyFit/) I wanted the option foe my clients to choose what they would work on today. Harbiz or any other app couldn’t make that happen. Hevy can. Review Source Similar Products Featured
