2024-12-03	mw*****	Meredith is an amazing instructor who blends fun with fitness in an effortless way! Following her monthly programs has completely taken out the stress of planning what movement I will do for the day, and if I happen to miss one, she’s always there to remind me to just hop back on it. If you have questions or comments, she will always get back to you and clearly takes her community’s feedback seriously! The workouts always include a warm up and a cool down, so I never leave feeling like I pushed too hard or didn’t get to return to a resting state. This is the app you need if you love fitness, are indifferent to fitness but know you need to do it, or are looking for way to fall in love with it! I recommend to all my friends and truly look forward to my 5 days a week with Mer.

2024-11-30	Ke*****	I am obsessed with The Playground! All of Meredith’s workouts are as educational as they are functional. I love learning about my body as I’m strengthening it. My personal favorite programs are Recess (monthly calendar with strength, cardio, and mobility workouts) and the videos in the morning care collection. She even provides pre- and post- natal programming, incredible yoga videos, and functional mobility practices. There’s something for everyone on The Playground!

2024-11-30	Bb*****	I’ve been using this app for the past two years, and it’s been an absolute game-changer. Mer has created an incredible hub that inspires movement and makes fitness enjoyable. The online classes are the perfect mix of challenging and efficient, and I always feel like I’m making the best use of my time. What sets this app apart is Mer’s ability to educate while leading classes. I’ve learned so much about my body and how to move better, which has made a huge difference in my overall health. Not only do I feel stronger and healthier than I have in years, but I also genuinely look forward to the classes every morning. If you’re looking for an app that helps you love movement and builds lasting strength, this is it. Highly recommend!

2024-10-31	K.*****	I loved the program! The balance of strength workouts and stretching was the right combination to help me feel good during my pregnancy. Meredith shared lots of labor prep information that was echoed by my OT. She helped me to feel as prepared as possible. The program was also flexible enough to fit into my working mom schedule.

2024-05-24	ze*****	As an athlete, it’s super important for me to have flexible hips for many of my foundational muscles, such as lower back, hammies, quads, to function properly. Meredith’s exercises showed me some great tips on how to loosen my hips, which has definitely helped with my every day and sports mobility.

2024-05-23	bu*****	I’m so grateful I was connected with Meredith and tried The Playground—to say I’m obsessed is an understatement!! Meredith has an incredible approach to health and fitness that makes workout out seem fun. I love following the Recess volumes for consistency and always feel stronger throughout the month. The app has everything so even when I’m traveling or taking a week off, there are videos to follow that suit my needs. Thank you Meredith for your positive spirit and efforts into making The Playground an amazing experience!!

2023-01-06	oz*****	I found Meredith’s Instagram page and fell in love! Her approach to fitness is functional and realistic. I actually feel good after her beginner app strength and yoga classes vs. feeling drained like so many other workout programs make me feel. Her masters in exercise physiology was also a huge PLUS to me as I’m not interested in I hiring myself following uneducated social media influencers (there are so many now who teach very poor and unsafe form). This app was designed for a great user experience. I’m really looking forward to continuing and highly recommend this app for women like me looking for a combo of movement, yoga and strength training! Thank you for this app Meredith!
