    Decent. Paying around £15/month for mine at the moment, which includes 5 weekly fitness tests, free advice/schedules set up for you, swimming, any spinning/fitness classes and obviously the gym as well. Love it.

    I have heard it doesn't take the different levels of terrain into account though, like hills and stuff, but still probably be a decent measure, will check it out.

    That is very good, wouldn't mind 1 yearly fitness test, let alone 5 a week.

    Don't but into this get ripped in 3 months bollocks! you will likley burn out and quit if you over do it. This has to become your life and becaome a daily task just like brushing your teeth and wipeing your arsehole is. If you do a little everyday you will get there.

    Getting ripped takes years, most people give up after 2 months.

    All depends on what your personal definition of "ripped" is, and depends on different body types, some people can build a huge deal of muscle mass in 6 months, others take years.

    To begin with terrain is not important. The app keeps things as simple as a Mackem on giro day trust me.

    It's about being motivated and getting the right balance.
