Hey Team,
It’s HERE. The new Bodybuilding.com app is now available in your app store. Download it, snag a workout, meet our awesome coaches, and connect with the community. You’ve got the key to a fitter you in your hand.
“But what’s so unique about it? Isn’t everyone making fitness apps these days?”
Heard. You’re right. We live in an era where most personal trainers have their own app. In fact, making apps has become a bit like podcasts—everyone’s doing it! But here’s the thing—ours is better. I’ll tell you why.
Our team of coaches are veterans in the strength and conditioning world. Each of them comes certified with real-world experience, putting their methods to the test with clients for the last two decades. All of them are athletes themselves, knowing exactly what it takes to put the plan into practice. Let me be the first to personally tell you—their workouts? They work. It doesn’t matter if it’s 10 or 30 minutes, you’re guaranteed to feel the spark of change when you press “go.” Consider me the guinea pig for the last four months and ask to feel my bicep.
We’ve become uber-obsessed with data and tracking, which is why on day one you’ll be able to connect your Apple Watch. More devices are on the way, but in the meantime, allow access to your phone’s health kit to monitor things like heart rate, calories crushed, and more. The app features visual modules to aid in understanding which muscles have been worked for the week, along with workout summaries provided at the end of a workout. What gets measured, gets managed. What gets managed, gets results.
Engaging with likeminded users just got easier. By creating your profile, you can connect with fellow athletes, exchange programs, share content, and more. You’ll have access to a whole host of people who have the same mindset as you. In 2025, we’ll debut “groups,” where you can gather local lifters to talk training, plan events, and move your digital convos to in-person meetups.
Check out some of my top recommended workouts now available in the app:
- Total Upper Body #1, Coach Gabe: With an emphasis on pull movements, welcome to your next back day. Grab a band and sling a pair of dumbbells to improve posture, get a pump, and work your entire upper body and core.
- Core Finisher #1, Coach Kristen: Found in the “accessories” tab, add in extra core to the back of your workout. Comprised of two rounds of three movements at :30 each, get one step closer to a stronger core in just five minutes. Don’t sleep on the Core Queen, DPT Kristen Lettenberger.
- Lower Body Ladder, Coach Harry: Oof, you better save this one for the day after your rest day. This advanced workout includes moves to engage your entire lower half while challenging your brain with patterns not found in a daily routine. It doubles as a strength and cardio session, with minimal breaks only earned after the working set is complete. This one’s spicy, but effective.
- Athletic Conditioning #1, Coach Ken: Totaling 200 reps, this workout blends upper and lower body movements with minimal rest to rev the engine. Reminder: if you have a body, you’re an athlete. Don’t let titles scare you—hop in and try something new with 20 minutes of functional fitness.
- Total Body #1, Coach Yaya: Completing 30 minutes on the floor with Coach Yaya is no easy feat. Show your whole body some love and take it on an iron date. Once complete, hit up the accessories tab for a cool down or foam roll.
- Deadlift 101, Coach Craig: Less of a workout, more of a fundamental necessity. Learning the proper deadlift isn’t just a skill pertinent to powerlifters. The deadlift can benefit everyone at all ages to stay strong and equipped for the daily demands of life. Discover how and why to deadlift properly with this masterclass by Coach Craig.
