Awesomely convenient app. Powerlifters dream app for anyone running Sheiko programs. Very convenient interface used to track workout includes video links for each movement and ability to adjust sets/reps. Sure the spreadsheets are free online, but no where near sad easy to use in the middle of a workout.

AMAZING. Been using Sheiko programs on and off for 4 years and this app helps SO much! It keeps track of each set and also gives you videos for each main lift and all accessory lifts! A must have for any serious Powerlifter!

Much potential, but buggy. I am a huge fan of the app developer's other app - multi-year weight training. I bought this to try to run sheiko for a cycle or two, but the app keeps starting me over at week 1/workout 1 every four days. It is frustrating that I can't move past week 1, but if I could, I would love the app.

Works great.. The app works great and is very useful.

This app gave me gains. It works as long as your consistent, doing the daily workout for increasing my overall lifts took me 1h45-2h to complete. My squat deadlift and bench increasing surprisingly more then I ever would have thought.

Great & easy to use app for some of the best programs written by the GOAT powerlifting coach.. Some bugs here and there, also wish some movements had videos explaining what they are, such as 1+1/2*2 deadlifts.

This app Rocks!!. I dig this app.

Great programming for any level. Follow the rules and you'll make it far. This is very intelligent science based programming that follows his protocols. After taking a workshop with him in Portland last summer this is a great tool as a coach/or a lifter to learn progression through a strength training macrocycle

Awesome. It's the best

Great app. Great app, making all types of gainnsssss

Great Program. I've done 5X5's , 5-3-1, and Westside Barbells Conjugate system. I love this program. I'm in the 4th week of the beginner program and feel great. I would like if you could print off of the app so you can have your workout for the day on paper if you'd like. Also, a point in the program where it tells you to retest your maxes after you have completed a cycle.

Great app. It’s well worth the price and the recent update that lets you easily view workouts ahead of time makes it near perfect. I wish it could still estimate 1RMs from recent rep maxes, but that’s not super important.

Why is this app even a thing?. You can get all these routines online for free. This app is so unorganized, and such overkill. I have no idea why so many people gave this a 5 star review. I feel like I just got robbed of $13.

Love the app.. Very detailed app with lots of extras included to help with your powerlifting goals.

Amazing. I'm in love! I'm seeing so much progress and have never felt better.

Amazing!. Great! Takes a little time to learn to navigate and then you're off! Super straight forward with lots of flexibility for long term growth.

Great app. Not buggy. Delivers all that it promises. All you have to do is work

The Sheiko App. 1. This app is for tracking your Sheiko programming. It does not teach you how the programming works. 2. Go to the Sheiko forums first to understand how the strength programming works, read up on Sheiko, and ask questions. 3. Then get the App and track your progress. Once you understand the basics of Sheiko's methods the App works well and makes perfect sense. 4. The strength programming works, if you put in the work you will get strong. I Recommend his app!!

App has bugs. Tried to reset the app after purchasing a 10.7 dollar program from the bench program I don’t have access to it after I deleted and reinstalled the program it says to buy it again. I need to my refund

Great App. Works great. My only complaint is front squats don’t change percentages, it has me doing sets of 5 with my one rep max and won’t let me change the one rep max on front squats to lower the weight.

Great App, But.... App won’t load on my iPhone 7+ running iOS 11.2.2. Just crashes back to the App Dock. Please help

Good app. A well thought out app. So far I am happy with my progress with the Advanced Prep Cycles. Worth every penny imho

Great app. Little bit of a learning curve though.. This has been a great app so far. It has a little bit of a learning curve though. A lot of experimenting and tinkering needed here. Unfortunately I'm still in the middle of my first cycle so I can't comment on the effectiveness of this system. However, I'm definitely enjoying the workouts so far. I will update in the future on my progress.

The best powerlifting training. Simply The best.. Boris is the best!! I was skeptic at first as I tried many routines but this has increased my strength in a week Wish I could meet the man!!

Try the App, you'll be glad you did. This is a fantastic app from a programmatic standpoint. I'm by no means a professional, but I can say that I have gotten results with it. To me, that's all that matters.

First!!!!!. I have been training with multi-year for 1.5 years now. I have been running Sheiko by transferring the excel to the multi-year app. Now I have both in one app!!!

App Glitches. I am on iOS 12.3.1 on an iPhone 7 and the app continually glitches out. It deleted my workout history, keeps resetting my input weights, and now it won’t stay open for more than a second. It looked like a really great app and I’m sad it’s not useable for $15 :(

iPad Pro. Nice update, but still no iPad functionality so the screen isn’t reduced. Will this be added in the future?

Updated now crashing. The app worked great until yesterday’s update now it crashes immediately upon opening. UPDATE : The new update fixed the problem, great service guys!

Insanely well made. Seriously, I’m a general lifter and I wanted to transition to actual competitive powerlifting. I was kind of unsure about what route to go, so I decided to download this app because I’ve heard nothing but the best about Sheiko. It’s a really well made, easy to follow app that will ensure you progress.

Scheiko. So far it hasn't been very easy to use and/or adjust my numbers. Id take a refund if it were possible:/

Great app for sheiko. I love having the sessions on my phone. I also like not knowing what I'm doing until right when I get to the gym because there's no opportunity to get psyched into being worried about what I'm going to be doing. Rated four stars only because it's not really easy to customize your sessions.

Very worth the money!. I love this app! It has made running Sheiko much easier than it would have been otherwise. I have seen some complaints about the app not working correctly but it has run perfectly smoothly for me so far. This app does everything but lift the weight. It times your rest periods, it chooses a program for you (but you can choose a different one if you like from all the various programs that it has), it lays out each and every workout for you, and it tracks your progress. The app has a small learning curve, but I was able to figure it all out after toying with it for five or ten minutes. All in all it was very worth the money!

Great App. What’s it mean when the exercise just says chest and no workout with it?

Used to be a great app. So I’ve been using this app since 2018. It has worked flawlessly until 2020. Sometime last year the date functionality broke. I stopped doing Sheiko last year so I’m not sure when exactly this happened. The date issues causes some issues in not allowing you to select the date when you finish a workout. This issue carries over into other selection areas as well only giving a blank selection screen and no means of resolving. Thus many of your workouts will not have the correct date or exercises. Overall 3/5 stars. Anyone reading this do not purchase in current state until developers fix the issues.

Not worth the money. Save your money. There are better ways to manage your training. You can find Sheiko templates by a simple google search. Maybe if this app were half the price...

Steps You Through Each Lifting Session. With every version, this app keeps getting better. Pick realistic starting weights and let the app take you through each Sheiko phase/cycle.

Save. Just purchased and already having problems. Wanted to view the program and not save, application would not allow me to "click" on no, kept bringing me back to save. Giving 3 stars, but right out of the gate-- this is extremely frustrating

App constantly crashes. I have had to delete the app at least 4 times and now I can't log back in. I do not recommend this app.

Love the programming. As a personal trainer I often used overly complicated programming. This app and the Strongur app both have given me personal gains I would have never thought possible. Approaching 70 years of age I’m setting goals I never reached as a young Marine Training officer over 40 years ago.

Not too shabby. It's a little tricky to look ahead and see what's coming up and a lot of the assistance movements don't give you much direction (chest muscles etc.). It would be helpful, in my opinion, if they gave an RPE for the assistance movements to take the guess work out. But other than that amazing volume of programming for 12 bucks. Drunk at Islands right now 🍻 cheers if you're reading this hope it's helpful for someone.

Not worth the money... yet. The idea behind the app is fantastic, yet the restrictions makes it useless for me. It would be nice with features that would enable you to see your progression in other exercises that are not related to deadlift, bench press and squat. And also, it would be nice to add your own program. I myself have created my own program with inspiration from numerous sheiko programs but I workout five times a week and unfortunately the app does not support this feature. You can only choose between the programs provided in the app, which are all 3 or 4 days a week programs. More improvements needed to make this app worth the money.

App review. Very effective app. Love the videos as they were helpful. I have been coached 1 on 1. 4 days a week for 6 months. Then I wanted more control so I went on my own. Successfully ran smolov. I had become accustomed to high volume so I choose sheiko. I'm making better strength gains now than I did during my first year of lifting! 💪🏼 thank you!

Convenient app. I like there app, but there are definitely some quality of life things that could be addressed. An example is, how it scrolls back to the top of the screen while I’m trying to put in my next RIR. Another one being it doesn’t always save my weights or notes for the auxiliary stuff. Could be just me, but this is what I’ve found so far. Aside from that, good app, great value.

keeps crashing. I bought this app in order to train by Mr. Sheiko program and to keep my history regarding my progress, but unfortunately it is impossible due to constant crashing of the app. The program itself is great, but this app got really annoying due to the reason I mentioned above. I wish I had not bought it at all.

Love the app but there’s an annoying bug. This app would be a 5 star if the date display wasn’t broken for your workout. I can provide screenshots if developer contacts me somehow (don’t know how to report bugs). Don’t get me wrong the workout portion of it works as intended the issue is when your finishing logging and putting which day you completed the workout. I will edit my review once fixed.

Post update rip off. This may be fixed, and if so I shall delete this review. But last year I paid $20 for this app, which in of itself is already quite a ludicrous amount for an app. Nonetheless this is the best powerlifting app I have ever used. However, in the latest update a range of bench specialisation programs have been added, which costs $30 to unlock! Charging $50 for the complete Sheiko routines is incredibly greedy considering all of these programs can be obtained online for free. I don't understand why the cost? I believe $20 for all of the programs is appropriate (albeit still a bit expensive). I really hope this is a mistake and is rectified ASAP.

Great app. Still early days, but so far I’m really enjoying the app. The feature that allows you to time your rests between sets is really useful, especially if you’re short on time. I’ve always used a spreadsheet in the past to manage my training prior to downloading this app, and this has made tracking your training so so much easier.

UX ?. The user experience for this app does not seem to exist, it’s extremely confusing to use for the cost.

Amazing!. Sheiko is a trainer who has created some of the best powerlifters of our time. The Sheiko app contains tailored routines from the man himself which will ensure you see increased strength gains over time. Being developed by Robert of multi-year its a high quality app with high quality programming! 10/10!

Great app. Enjoy the app easy to use and a great time saver

Great app. App is easy to use and plans your days for you. Workouts take some time so be ready for a couple of hours per workout.

Great App. Easy to use and great for all levels of lifters!

Great app. Great app. The only complaint I have is that if you have never use this style of training, it may be a little confusing at first. It doesn’t really explain to you how to use it. Once you get the hang of it tho it is amazing ! Would highly recommend. I have noticed great gains in strength in no time at all. Highly recommend

Solid app, challenging programs. * Would prefer the video examples be not included in the app, either downloaded on demand or streamed.

Fantastic product. This app is the best strength training app by far

Best app best program. The advanced medium load program has earned me multiple medals at multiple meets , including. 495lb / 225kg bench

Great app!. Really helped with my programming and comes with the Sheiko programs as well!

Great product!. I've followed a Sheiko paper based program for a few months and decided to buy the app. It's a great tool to have, I can look at what my next workout will look out, make changes easily, watch videos if I'm unsure of the movement and email my workout I completed to myself. It would be good if you could foresee the week ahead or month ahead workout, therefore I give it just a 4.

Great App. Really good, very easy to follow the program each day and customizable as well. The bar path tracker can be fairly finicky but if you get your video at a good angle it's really useful, especially the graphs it produces. Only complaint is their is no way to look ahead at the program you're doing or look at other programs without changing the workout day it's set to. So after you're done looking you have to set it back to the workout you're supposed to be on. And excel spreadsheet sort of style program overview would be nice to see them in the full scale

Put aside your ego and get coached by the best. Developed by Boris Sheiko, coach of the olympic Russian powerlifting team since the 1990s. A multi-year training plan that can take a powerlifter from novice to elite. Assuming you put aside your ego and follow it exactly.

Must have!. If your serious about weightlifting its a great app to monitor your progres. But don't over estimate your 1rm ...

Loved the app but can’t access purchases. Had to get a new phone and don’t remember my password. Tried resetting my password multiple times and don’t get an email. I had also purchased some of the focused workouts but cannot access them now.
