We’ve all dreamed of having a personal trainer at some point in our lives, but even a gym membership can be hard to justify in a cost of living crisis.
So it's no surprise people are buzzing about a 'game-changing’ solution to keeping fit that doesn't cost an arm and a leg.
Billed as a personal trainer in your pocket, the app is designed to help you to create a realistic everyday routine that you will actually stick to.
The app’s 24/7 AI digital wellness expert is called Avo and is designed to answer any questions you may have, whether you need inspiration on what to cook for tea or advice on the right exercise class for you.
You can send photos of your meals to the app for nutritional guidance and if you’re out on a weekend, you can even ask for help choosing a dish from the menu. There are also lots of workout plans to choose from, including strength training, cardio, Pilates, and chair yoga.
Most importantly, the language used on the app is neutral without any reference to 'good' or 'bad' food, calorie counting, restrictive eating or weighing scales. Instead, the coaching app will help you to confidently achieve your goals, whether that’s upping your protein, sleeping eight hours a night or drinking more water.
According to the brand, the app has been created with guidance from some of the world’s leading nutritionists and health experts. To begin, all you need to do is fill out a form to help the app to understand your health goals, past experiences, and preferences.
With thousands of rave reviews online, people have called the app ‘brilliant’. One five-star review reads: “I feel like I have a supportive coach and accountability partner. They are at the same time firm and encouraging.”
Another customer was also impressed with the AI personal trainer, as they wrote: “The food, hydration, and movement logging are really great to keep track of what you're eating and how much water you're intaking. The coach is also helpful and encouraging - the amount of habit-changing informative knowledge is really impressive.”
A third highlighted that the app is inclusive. “It's a very helpful app,” they wrote. “The AI coach is very sweet and attentive; I have a four-month-old so I let the bot know I wanted to incorporate my baby into my workouts and it provided a list of workouts.”
“Obviously, everyone is different and if you have any disabilities, the app will still arrange a way for you to reach your goals.”
You can download and use the app here. If you would like access to premium features such as nutrition analysis and a range of exercise classes, the app costs from $29.99 depending on the plan. You can use the exclusive code SIMPLEDEAL for 60% off.
