And with the money-hungry decision to remove power pack support, I'm leaving the app for good. Chatgpt could give these personalised workouts for free. One time purchase meant one time purchase. Can't be bothered to litigate it but it's a shame to see. It's been a real help getting me back into a routine. I know it's supposed to be a thing that just starts you off, but unfortunately life events have thrown me out of fitness many times. Stronglifts was always there to help me get back into it.

As I get older, I realize how important lifting is to maintaining my mobility and flexibility. Stronglifts was a great motivator for me by helping me make incremental progress toward my goals. After some time away for sickness and injury, I came back to the app to find that I now have to subscribe even to get to the data I have already in my account, much less use the app. Thanks but no thanks. I'll find another way.

As a person who doesn't really like to work out, 5x5 lets you forget about the math and forget about keeping track, and just do the deed. Very helpful. Five star. EDIT: The weather is nice now so I went out to the garage to get started again and get my brain correct after a cold winter. Stronglifts is no longer honoring our agreement and is demanding that I pay a subscription fee to continue. I am not happy and awaiting a response. Hopefully we can resolve this issue.
