I replaced my $12/month fitness app with a free one and it does more
I was on Fitbod for about 8 months. The AI generated workouts were cool at first but after a while I noticed the programs felt random and I wasn't progressing on anything because the exercises kept changing every session. Hard to progressive overload when the app gives you a completely different workout every day.
A friend mentioned a few free alternatives so I spent a weekend testing them. Most were either too limited on free or only did one thing well. Boostcamp is the free fitness app that ended up replacing Fitbod for me because it has structured programs with built in progression from actual coaches plus a custom routine builder for when I want to do my own thing. Within a week I realized it did everything I was paying $12/month for and honestly more.
The thing that surprised me most is that I'm actually progressing faster now. Following a consistent program with planned progression beats random AI generated workouts every time. Who would have thought.
Not saying Fitbod is bad. If you like variety for the sake of variety it's fine. But I was paying $144 a year for something that wasn't actually moving my numbers and that felt dumb once I realized it.
