## Description

Thenics guides you through calisthenics skills with step-by-step progressions and detailed technique explanations. Free skills include Muscle Up, Planche, Front Lever, Back Lever, Pistol Squat, Handstand Push Up, and V-Sit, while Thenics Pro adds advanced moves like One Arm Pull Up, Human Flag, One Arm Push Up, One Arm Handstand, and Dragon Flag.

The app also features THENICS COACH, which creates personalized workout plans, answers planning questions, and helps you combine basic training with skill work. Unlike traditional fitness apps, Thenics focuses on acquiring impressive skills and functional strength, not just lifting more weight.

## Review summary

Thenics is praised for solid progressions, robust tracking, and a helpful coach feature, with broad workouts for all levels. Repeated drawbacks include a lack of customization, flaky UI/UX on smaller screens, coaching/editing bugs, rest-day inflexibility, and mixed views on subscription value. Overall, it’s strong for skill progression but would benefit from better customization, reliability, and polish.

### Pros

- Clear, structured progressions and skill-focused tracks that enable steady advancement (e.g., pistol progressions, muscle-ups).
- Strong progress tracking and motivation; logs reps/exercises and helps users move to the next level.
- Adaptive coach system with live feedback for easier/harder progressions (premium feature).
- Affordable, simple to use; good value compared to alternatives.
- Wide variety of workouts and skill progressions; suitable for beginners and experienced users; includes warm-up and cool-down sessions.

### Cons

- Lack of customization: users cannot customize workouts or create their own programs (exercises, reps, sets, rest), and have limited ability to design plans.
- UI/formatting issues and device readability: screens sometimes cut off, app does not auto-fit well on small devices, making readability and data entry difficult.
- Coach algorithm and editing bugs: at times the coach suggests unrealistic workouts and the workout editor is buggy (edits shift things), plus coaching prompts can be hard to dismiss.
- Rest day scheduling limitations: users cannot freely choose rest days or easily recover missed workouts; scheduling and progression can feel inflexible.
- Subscription/value concerns: some users feel paid plans don’t always deliver proportional progress, and others would prefer a free option.
