User Reviews

WL Analysis is praised for precise bar-path tracking, versatile plate detection, and strong data graphs that aid coaching and progression. Users value the value, updates, and exportable data, plus convenient features like side-by-side views. Recurrent drawbacks focus on in-app video cropping limitations and occasional UI reliability issues (controls like play/back buttons), with some setup friction and occasional compatibility notes. Overall, the app is seen as a powerful, affordable tool for tracking and improving lifts.
Pros
  • Accurate bar-path tracking with velocity data and helpful graphs (velocity, displacement, acceleration) that aid coaching and technique improvement.
  • Automatic plate detection and robustness to angled shots; works with various setups (pulley machines, different clips) and is often favored over competitors.
  • Great value for money with ongoing updates and strong feature set, including a paid/pro version.
  • User-friendly features like side-by-side view and the ability to export data (CSV) for cross-workout analysis and comparison.
Cons
  • In-app video editing is limited or unavailable, specifically cropping videos within the app, which hinders editing and reference of past clips.

Must have for coaches or any serious lifters. Tracking your bar path is the best way to improve strength with technique - enjoy the PR’s 💪

It’s been fun using the app periodically with students. They move the bar with much more intent when they are being filmed and timed.

Does what it is supposed to do… measures the velocity of the barbell going up and down. If you focus it on the pulley, it will work on pulley machines too, or use an old cd on the weight stack for it to focus on. NOW, if there could be a way to have it keep playing iTunes in my Airpods while taking a video… LOL
