★★★★ Quentin Abernethy 7/2/2026 v4.0.5
Didn't really care for your product. Entry price point was excellent. I work early morning to early afternoon. (5:00 am- 2:30 pm) I do diesel work on class 8 tractors working outside mostly in the elements. I tried the workouts for a couple days in a row. Honestly I am just too wore out to work, come home and take care of family life, then try to do mad muscles. Thought I could. Answer is...not that I can't. I simply don't want to. Take my 3 month subscription fee and use it well.
★★★★ Mohamed DARID 7/2/2026
Way too expensive. We barely understand what we're paying for, and they charge for orders for absolutely nothing. Plus, the app is a complete nightmare. They're charging us a fortune for useless things. And when you ask for an immediate refund, they start giving bogus reasons to extend your subscription, and you fall into the trap again to be charged even more, which I didn't do, and I won't give them that opportunity to scam me.
★★★★ Aqueel Ahmed 7/2/2026 v4.0.6
this is a fraud app looting money.
★★★★ manoj Saini 7/2/2026 v4.0.5
they ask for one time payment and then they shift you to the costliest plan.nothing worth in this app
★★★★ Sahil Kumar 7/2/2026
FRUAD, DON'T DOWNLOAD
★★★★ eriola kullolli 7/1/2026 v4.0.4
this application is still taking my money even after i unsubscribed. now I have to close credit card to get rid of it. I wrote about the problem to them, but they do like they don't understand.
★★★★ Raj rj 7/1/2026
this app is not recommended for indians diet. when you promote globally you should plan a diet based on country and area. you're only recommending italian, american foods. at the time of pre questions you also should ask for country and do you prefer veg, meet, dairy and are you a vegan. based on that you should provide diet plans. it's really waste of money. am not satisfied by diet plan.. as you said within 30days moneyback guaranty please work on that for me
★★★★ Mirko Rakocevic 6/30/2026
Interesting thing every time you have the answer why this does not work. First diet then something else and every time is my fault. Or your app DOES NOT WORK at all. As I can see what others are saying you will not last for long. Only in this month your average stars are less then 2. Ask yourselves WHY.
★★★★ Vijayendran Rajendran 6/29/2026 v4.0.5
wast of time app,, please do not buy this app ,,,, i used one time and asked for refund,,, but no proper response and not refunded my money yet
★★★★ Stefan Alexandru Grigore 6/28/2026
such a disgustibg app and company. i cancelled my subscription, cause it didn't help me at all...and it keeps tak9ng my money after i received confirmation emails that it has been canceled! DO NOT TRUST!
★★★★ Yurii Nedilenko 6/27/2026 v3.42.1
Do not even think about downloading this app unless you're happy to be charged without your clear permission. The cancellation process is confusing, the subscription is hidden, and I didn't even realize I was subscribed until I was charged £47.99. I tried to cancel, but without success. At this point, I don't even know how this scam will end. I would strongly recommend avoiding this app.
★★★★ G B (‫الحنون‬‎) 6/27/2026 v4.0.5
you are scammers
★★★★ Darryl Green 6/27/2026 v4.0.5
I clicked the wrong button during checkout, emailed mad muscles 2 mins after, they tried to up sell me more to avoid refund. In the end they did not give me my money back. Pretty much theft in my eyes
★★★★ Marius Tudor 6/27/2026 v4.0.5
absolutely a scam ,avoid at all cost ,I paid 80£ on a subscription that I didn't did and they are refusing a refund ,everything about them its a scam,avoid at all costs
★★★★ Simon Smith 6/25/2026 v4.0.4
if you attempt to cancel subscription, make sure that you updated the app
★★★★ Diana Mokhatu 6/25/2026 v4.0.5
The exercises are without voice instructions, as a result, they are very difficult to follow and not user friendly when you have to exercise and also look at the screen of a device to follow the exercises. Either improve or you will lose a lot of clients.
★★★★ Medo Java 6/24/2026 v4.0.5
This app appears to have processed a charge without my authorization. I will be reporting the transaction to my card issuer, and I do not recommend this application
★★★★ Lindsay Smith 6/24/2026 v4.0.4
I have been trying to cancel my subscription and I still keep getting charges!!
★★★★ William Burwood 6/24/2026 v4.0.5
AVOID, they automatically continue your subscription and then when cancelled try to take further payments.
★★★★ Dan Harding 6/24/2026 v4.0.5
Do not be fooled by money back guarantee. cancelled after 7 days. refused a refund. got fobbed off by customer services. ended up paying £35 for downloadable pdf file without realising they were not free and part of the package. again, refused a refund. Avoid.
★★★★ L Hertzler 6/24/2026 v4.0.5
Why do they need to know anyting about my computer other than the OS version? If i am getting assistance I would prefer to let someone in myself instead of me being a beacon for someone to get onto my system without my permission.
★★★★ Angey Wright 6/22/2026 v4.0.4
bad customer service. I requested a refund or even partial refund and was refused even tho I had the app for two months and never used it, I contacted customer service for a refund or even partial refund two days after the charge as I said I will be deleting the app and not using it. I don't recommend this app, it's too expensive and customer service is not helpful.
★★★★ Paul Milner 6/22/2026 v4.0.4
Stay away from this company, a number of hidden charges that they don't advertise and they say that you sign up for a trial for a month or trail period, but this isn't true, as they take another payments after around 7 to 10 days even if you've decided to cancel the subscription with in a week or 10 days of starting to the plan. Try to claim your money back, you then receive a number of emails with other offers, despite requesting money back they tell you you haven't cancelled in time
★★★★ Krunal Shah 6/22/2026 v3.42.1
fraud company. i paid usd 10 only once using credit card. then it keep on deducted money from credit card.
★★★★ Martin Fuller 6/22/2026 v4.0.4
no phone number to cancel
★★★★ anthony thomason 6/22/2026 v4.0.4
you don't stand buy your product and when there's a money back guarantee 💯 you should honor it, but you blatantly did not.You were liars , and I don't recommend anybody to deal with you
★★★★ Kenneth Yuchasz 6/21/2026 v4.0.2
I have a surgery scheduled in eight days for two torn tendons and a detached bicep in the same arm. Not related to your product, but will prohibit me from using it for the next year. That's why I canceled it... or thought I did, until I saw the charge on my credit card yesterday.
★★★★ Paul Johnson 6/21/2026 v4.0.4
Paid for a 30 day programme based on a Facebook ad. next thing I know there's a subscription payment coming out, which I knew nothing about and didn't agree to. Grifters!
★★★★ Fotis Georgalas 6/21/2026
Sneaky billing methods, tricking users into renewals with higher prices than the initial subscription.
★★★★ huidu alexandra 6/20/2026 v4.0.4
This app is a scam. After you subscribe, they take large amounts of money from your account withought your authorisation!!! When you contact support, they say they cannot identify your account and they just keep taking your money!
★★★★ Nevin Morrison 6/20/2026 v4.0.4
Auto-renewed on its own. Co texted customer support 3 times. the same auto generated response. Still no refund. Scam!
★★★★ pranav batra 6/20/2026 v4.0.4
I was incorrectly charged £39.99 by Mad Muscles for a subscription that I never signed up for. The only purchase I made was a one-time £9.99 payment to access and print a workout plan. At no point did I knowingly subscribe to any recurring service. After noticing the charge, I contacted customer support several times and clearly explained that I never authorised this subscription. Despite multiple emails, they refused to issue a refund. What is most concerning is that I have since found many
★★★★ Serge Lesh 6/18/2026
this app is charging me $39.99 a month!!! how the heck do I get a hold of them??!! CANCEL CANCEL CANCEL!!
★★★★ Y. Carter 6/18/2026 v4.0.3
-2 ( no stars). Do not use this company they charge extra fees after charging your account. There were extra charges 3x $0.99 for SG V unimeal also charged 2x $1.01 for VSA_madmusle.* THEY DON'T OFFER REFUNDS** I don't care how many times you request..******DON'T USE THIS COMPANY****
★★★★ Mahima Saraswat 6/18/2026
I purchased this app and they charged me wrong and added subscription without my permission and knowledge and are not willing to refund even after having conversation over email. so much of money lost instead of refunding the whole money they giving me free offers which I dont want. The refund your offering is not even half the money which is deducted from my account .....Two transcations were made without my knowledge and consent.
★★★★ William Parker 6/18/2026 v3.40.0
scam
★★★★ Adam French 6/17/2026
awful experience. Workouts are low budget and very repetitive. subscription auto-renewed for £107 and they refused to refund despite getting in touch on the same day and not using the app for months. Then had to try and communicate with an AI bot via email to no avail. terrible company, terrible comms, terrible experience. Avoid!
★★★★ David Sanchez 6/17/2026 v4.0.3
this is a terrible company. it's borderline scam customer service is terrible and when you want to cancel they will not give you your money back. they'll make you stay for the other 3 months. they will try to get a good review from you right away. probably cuz they know you're going to give a bad one later
★★★★ Rick Mandigo 6/16/2026 v4.0.2
too much for me
★★★★ Ch 17 6/16/2026 v3.25.0
I am a totally gullible dipstick that fall for ai generated bodies and interviews. where do I sign? edit- using ai to generate fake interviews with fake people that look like they have been hitting the gym 5 hours every day for the last 20 years it's dishonest ,and creates an unreal expectation for people to sign a subscription model that seem from the reviews to be hard to cancel or get a refund for. I think calisthenics is a good excersize , but their ads are so cringe
★★★★ Antonio Roji 6/15/2026
They charged me more money than what I thought I was going to pay, I contacted them minutes after that and they are refusing to give me a refund.
★★★★ Olarotimi Faniyi 6/15/2026 v4.0.2
This is a shady app... I only wanted to pay for the month only for them to debit me a huge hidden charge*... I have been asking for refund with no response. I will call this app and company behind it a fraudulent organisation
★★★★ Ravi Chowdary 6/14/2026 v4.0.2
fraud
★★★★★ H W Lunau 7/3/2026 v4.0.6
can't use the app offline
★★★★★ David 7/3/2026
BEWARE!!!! If you sign up for their "free" trial, you better make sure you set a notification to cancel before the date it is supposed to renew if you found this app as unhelpful as I did... I had a loss in the family about a month ago, right around the time my renewal was set to occur, and I missed canceling my subscription on time. I reached out to them, asked them to refund my $90 as I had only used the app about half a dozen times and did not need it or see the value in it, and they refused.
★★★★★ Alejandro Guevara 6/27/2026 v4.0.5
LO VEO CONFUSO PARA SEGUIR LAS INSTRUCCIONE , LO UNICO QUE PUDE HACER ES IMPRIMIR LA PRIMERA PARTE.
★★★★★ Sharifah Adong 6/26/2026 v4.0.5
the ad said no equipment needed but your body. out of the blue, the instructor says I prop my shoulder blades on a chair!!! no notice of bring a chair. program is brutal from the start. the next program requires jumping and squatting... not sure if it will not harm me.
★★★★★ vijaya madhusudhan 6/22/2026 v4.0.4
Be very careful with the subscription. I joined for what I believed was a 30-day program and was later charged $39.99 for an automatic renewal. I later cancelled future renewals but would not get refund the latest charge. My advise to new users is to read the subscription terms carefully and set a reminder to cancel if you don't plan to continue.
★★★★★ Prasant Panigrahi 6/21/2026
there should be free trial
★★★★★ Supreet Hegde 6/21/2026 v4.0.4
It is fraud, they will trick you for automatic purchase of subscription. All exercises are ineffective and mostly copied from yoga
