20 Pull Ups Trainer Challenge App Reviews

Paid for the app, now they want a subscription fee. To say I am unimpressed would be an understatement. I have no issue paying for an app but why was I not grandfathered into this? Maybe make a new app for your subscription service. What could possibly be gained from a subscription on an app that simply tells wen to perform the same exercise over and over? Would not recommend any Zen labs products, can’t trust they will stand by their you even when you spend the money.

Good start. Great for starting a workout routine.

Well planned app. Seems very logical and solid in its methods. Pleased with the results.

Great app. Currently on a DEP to go into the Marine Corps. I've been out of shape for years, but this app has helped me get my pull-up count higher, getting me closer to meeting my goals!

Great app, love the directions and tips to help a beginner. This app is easy to use and has great tips if you are just starting out.

Good map to 20 pull-ups. I was able to do 20 Marine-quality pull-ups (no kips or swings) in my late teens and now, at 46, am looking to get back to that ability. Purchased this app and like the roadmap it gives you each day to get to your goal. Wish the app had more suggestions for when you can't do the daily routine fully (e.g. do negatives for the pull-ups you can't complete) and it probably also needs a separate build-up track for those who can't do one pull up yet so they can get to the first pull up routine. Decent idea for an app though and I have purchased the push ups and squats one too. By the way, this pull up routine works just as well for dips as it does for pull-ups.

Beginner progressions are too high. I was able to do 10 pull ups before using this app. Even I find the rate of progression too much, especially the last set. I think more volume per workout is needed with more sets like a typical BW program.

Lovely. I enjoy this app.. Trying to work on my pull-ups obviously, so far so good! I'm up to 13 & I started around 5-6 :)

Simple but effective!. I haven't done a pull-up for exercise sake in years and this app looks like just the tool to help me prepare for an upcoming Tough Mudder. The interface is simple and intuitive without unnecessary bells and whistles. Great work on the app! Keep it up!

Excellent app!!. Just purchased the app and knocked out 9 pull-ups!! Easy to use with perfect rest cycles!!

Quick and straightforward.. I have the pull ups and push-ups apps. They are easy and keeps me from having to any counting of remembering. Just start the app and go. My only question is to why the rest time is 1 min but clearly in the screen caps it shows 2 min. The push-ups rest is 2 min and pull ups are way harder exercise. A 2 min rest would be nice. I guess I can just make myself rest for 2 min though.

Great for Marines. I used this app last year as a recruit awaiting Marine Corps boot camp. Went from 0 to 9 pull-ups in one month. Now I have to get it again since PFT season is here. Absolutely the best app to help increase your pull-ups! PS: (If you can’t do a single pull-up, do negatives)

Okay, but.... When one pays for the full version without advertisements, one is unpleasantly surprised to see your advertisements...annoyed even, when the icon shows notifications to go see your advertisements. FAIL...fix it, please!

Crash. The app has been great but lately it has been crashing while the timer has been counting down or the program won’t even open at all. Please fix soon.

There apps are great. This apps will help you progress. All they need is a dip app just like there other apps.

$. I paid a few bucks for this app years ago and have used it for years. It’s a glorified chart telling you how any sets of how many reps to do each day. It’s basic, nothing worth paying this surprise monthly subscription Zen labs is foisting upon us to double dip I into our pockets.

Extorting me for more money in a subscription after I already paid full price for whole unlocked app. I already paid full price for this app for full functionality and they just updated it to block access to the apps functionality without a subscription. I ALREADY PAID FOR IT AND SHOULDNT NEES A SUBSCRIPTION! Their loss, I can find thousands of apps to replace them without being held to a subscription after I already forked out money for an unlocked version.

Very annoying. This app asked me incessantly for a review. Enough so that I gave it one star. Very annoying

Almost there. Could be improved.. There should be a test to start to determine where you are with pull-ups. That’s where you start your program. I had to tap through the program until I got to a point where I thought I should start. The text as to how many to do and the rest time is pretty small. I can’t see what I’m doing on the app.

Just like the Cav. Being former 2 Cav I love a good challenge. Zen 20 pull-ups goes beyond just 20 and smartly gives your muscles the time between reps to reach 40+. In short, it's just you, Zen and a bar. Get the app and enjoy!

Subscription. Another developer drops paid app for subscription. There are plenty of apps that don’t have subscriptions. Don’t fall for the trap.

Not great but not bad. It starts off assuming you can do one pull-up which I could not do BUT I'm using a chair to assist me as little as possible and I feel confident I can finish the program this way then do it again without a chair or maybe take the chair away after the first few weeks. Adds to the overall length of the program but it seems worth it.

Very nice app with good progression. Good app with nice warm up and progression. Would be nice to add music though. Otherwise, great lay out and it does what it says.

Subscription won’t sync. Started a Zen Unlimited subscription that is refusing to sync with any app other than the one through which I purchased it. Hopefully the issue will get resolved before I burn through the free workouts

Excellent apps!. The zen apps are very well made. The programs are easy to follow and progressive. I’m a huge fan so far! I’m using C25K, the push-ups app, the pull-ups app, and the squat app. I’m going to try the 7 min workout app soon. It’s nice that zen labs has such diversity in the apps they offer.

Good stuff. I like it

Subscription after purchase?. Purchased this app and now after the update I am being forced to subscribe.. no thanks

They stole my money. I paid full price for the set of these apps for full access now they have locked my apps and trying to charge me $4.99 a month for unlimited access. What a joke. Why did I have to pay for them in the first place ?

20 pull-ups. Really feel good about this app will improve greatly

Timers. It would be better if the timers ran in the background when you need to click away.

Great app!. I love it!

Dishonest about Updates. The app functions quite well and custom-fits programs based on your fitness level at the time you begin. I had been enjoying it and making gains and made the one-time purchase to access the pull-up application. In any case, this morning when I went to train, the app had been updated and I was essentially locked out and forced to pay again to a more expensive plan simply to continue. Despite what I felt was a dishonest move, I considered it, but the update is buggy and won’t even allow me to try the “free trial” of the latest version. I have reached an impasse with this app!

Update removes your purchase. 0 stars. Your iOS update today removed all access to the app after purchasing it a few months ago! I want my access back or I want a refund as I purchased push up/sit-up/pull-up challenges!

20 pullups or not?. I cannot understand it at all! it was designed to make me arrive to 20 pull-ups or not? now it stopped with 50 a day in many series (max maybe 13) and it says I’m done. Have I missed something here?

Thieves. I paid full price for the app but since the latest update I am locked out of about half of the workouts and I need to subscribe to access what I already paid for and had. 0/10 would never buy any app from this company again. Worked ok before except that timers stopped if you look at another app while resting between sets. Plenty of free alternatives. Garbage. No need for a subscription just a greedy move by the developers.

Very good. I'm still doing negatives, but almost did my first pull up after round 4.

Great app. I use this app to keep me in shape for the army. Makes things simple to follow and allows you to track your progress

Lame. Lame app

Starting Workouts Too High. This is a great app especially the push-ups version, but, as a military veteran, I have to say, these beginning workouts on the pull-ups are too high.

I expected more. This app is nothing more than a tracker. Not a tracker, as in tracks anything. It's just a log. For a paid app, and given their other applications, I expected more.

No beginner level. The style and workability of the app is fine— but the first week starts with 9 pull ups. Or, alternatively, they suggest you can do the “beginner program” and work up to that in two weeks by doing negative pull ups —starting with the same 9 but as negative. No way a beginner will be able to do 9 negative pull-ups or get to 9 pull-ups in two weeks. From the company that has the “couch to 5K” app, I certainly would have liked this program to have an option for those of us starting from zero.

Needs to deal better with incomplete workouts. To the developers: if you are working this program, you are, inevitably, going to hit a sticking point and have to repeat a workout until you can complete it. The app needs to deal with this. I should be able to attempt a workout, record what I was able to do, have the app keep track, and not remind me the next day to workout again. In other words, there needs to be something between “I never even attempted this workout” and “I successfully completed all reps and all sets and I ready to move to the next day”.

Too many pull ups!. What I love about all of your other apps is that I feel successful right from the beginning. This one is too difficult from the start and I need to cheat.

Good program/nice app. So when I first opened it, I thought it was wanting you to do 9 pull ups! I was like how is this for beginners?? But looking more it makes sense. You take breaks in between and if you can't do a pull up, do negative pull ups (which if it is marketed to beginners, then that should be more prevalent).

User interface much. It was very unclear where to start and the sizing is definitely not for an iphone 7 or similar size. Could barely read anything and when I clicked something a timer started, for what? I don't know. I thought is was going to be a trainer for pull ups that takes you through some build ups like hangs, negatives, bicep curls, incremental hangs, etc. I saw none of that, but then I could barely read it.

Easy to use. User-friendly interface. Works as advertised (so far). We'll see how long it takes for me to perform 20 pull-ups.

App revoked purchases. I paid for this app and now this update removed all the features and wants a subscription. Your app developer license should be revoked. This is a huge scam

Now they want me to pay extra?. I purchased the app and it was working okay (a few bugs here and there, but you could get your workout done). Now they’ve locked my account and want me to pay a monthly fee. I’ll talk to Apple and see if I can get my money back.

Awesome app!. Great motivation!

Friendly app for all level users. App is easy to use and you don't have to start from a strong point. This app gets you from the very beginning to 20 at your pace with daily detailed guidance.

Well worth it. A great app that is fit for purpose. It is providing the right amount of motivation for me to climb the hill of getting to do 20 pull-ups - I recommend it highly

Timer stops. Timer really needs to run in the background while using other apps, especially the other Zen workout apps for circuits

Awesome!!!!. Great way to build up your strength. Love it

Love it!. Great app. Well paced, great results.

Good but could use an update. There should be an option to say beginner, intermediate or advanced and the amount of pull ups goes up with each category.

pullup app. great app. only complaint is i cant reset to day 1.

Excellent app. This is the best way I've found so far to train for doing pull-ups.

Rip-off!. I tried the app for free, then bought the full feature option. Then they updated it so that you have to subscribe to get the full features. App Store won’t refund since I’ve owned it for 60 days (before the rip-off update), and @zenlabs tells me to go after apple since they cannot help me! Definition of fraud!!!

Challenging. Self explanatory. Eases you into working out more. Simple, easy to use app.

5 stars. 5 stars

Great app. This app really helped me get in shape.

Nice app. I like this app have been doing it for one week love the progression seems to be a 3 day a week workout

Feels like a demo. Cannot reset to day one and can only have one user.

Awesomesauce. Love it. Helping me get to where I need to be.

Great. Great app for working on pull-ups on a regular basis.

Great app. Would be nice if one can adjust rest time, but great app anyway!

Nope. The app starts assuming you can do several pull ups- does not build or teach you to complete your first pull up!

Updated app then locked out of paid features.. I purchased a few of their apps, in a package deal, a while ago to support them for all the help they’ve given me in the past and today (12/18/2020) they just updated them and now all four apps are telling me I need to subscribe to gain access to features I already unlocked after I paid for them.

Gettin Guns!. Great app from a great family of apps... A real motivator!

Great app. I love the timer and "rounds" of training. It reminds me of a mini crossfit workout.

Great workout. Great workout

I have to pay for a subscription to apps I already bought....?. I already purchased the xxx push-ups/sit-ups/squats pack way back in the day and now you’re going to lock me out of the later weeks of an app I already paid for? If you want to move to a new payment style for new users, fine, but it seems like a real crock to not grandfather in users who already paid for the pack, even if there’s more “functionality” now. Good job on adding the ability to change music from inside the app, I guess? Not like I can’t just, ya know, play music from iTunes or Spotify and swipe down? I don’t even care if you just gave me the old app, or make the old app available for use instead of the new one. I don’t need the new one, it’s new color scheme, etc. I didn’t ask for this and don’t want it.

Good app, good motivation!. Good app, good motivation!

Pull-ups are hard. I'm learning pretty well with this lovely app.

Really enjoy this one. Love it! This whole series is pretty great
