Not for me

I saw Weezy Waiter’s videos and thought Trainwell would be an amazing compromise between in person training and home workouts. My first video call with my trainer was great. I love her! She seemed knowledgeable and capable. I told her my goals, and she thought we should proceed. I’m 3 months in and I’m so disappointed. While she has stated a few times she could be available for a video review, she hasn’t been proactive. My one tangible goal was pull ups and we’ve done no pull ups and I don’t feel much closer to achieving that. I’ve requested harder workouts multiple times. I’ve complained they are short and not challenging and she will change one thing and say it’s fixed. Recently all my workouts were programmed at beginner weights for no apparent reason. I reached out and she apologized for an app glitch. I don’t know what her interface looks like, but I don’t think she is paying much attention to my requests or comments on workouts. I messaged last week with days I would be on vacation and not working out and she’s sent two messages encouraging me to do my workouts. I think she may have too many clients or too much going on IRL or something, but I don’t think it’s worth the $100/month. It has kept me accountable and I’ve probably been more consistent than I would have been otherwise, but the programming feels like sub-par AI.
