Thank you Nicole N. and The Wall Street Journal for featuring Ladder as a favorite app for strength training! ?? --- [Ladder] "Best for:?Coaching support and structure." ---"This [Ladder] is the app I plan on sticking with." ?? ---"You join one of 18 “teams” led by a coach who programs seven different workouts each week. Teammates (fellow users) can cheer you on while you work out alongside them and flood the team chat with questions about modifications. I liked the audio cues with form tips and words of encouragement. Several teams mix in other kinds of fitness, such as running or Pilates." https://lnkd.in/gMWpcJrr

Introducing The Ladder Manifesto. For those ready to begin, for those ready to reset, for those ready to commit to the plan. A manifesto for those that know you don't have to be a professional athlete to train with purpose, and you don't have to choose between your career or your kids or your fitness. You don't need to think harder to train smarter, or spend hours in the gym to get better results. This is a manifesto for the Pilates Princess, the Muscle Mommies, the Hybrid Athletes, and the dads that still got that dawg in them. This is a manifesto for the leaders, the doers, for those that know change doesn't happen to those stuck behind the screen. It's time to change. It's time to become your own influencer. This is Ladder, and this is the Ladder Manifesto.

Thanks for sharing the Ladder story Jessica Mathews and Fortune!! ???? --- "I stumbled upon a strength training app called Ladder, where users join one of 17 teams to get curated progressive overload training programs that run in six-week cycles. It felt like having my own personal trainer to customize my workouts, then be in my ear to give me audio cues, and help with my form. I’ve never loved going to the gym so much until now, and I’ve been surprised at how much weight I’ve been able to move since I started using it." ---"It’s hardly just me who’s a fan. Austin-based Ladder is close to hitting 150,000 paid monthly or annual subscribers this month—tripling its user base from this time last year. The startup has raised $30 million over three formal funding rounds, and it recently inked an interesting debt deal with General Catalyst for $90 million in marketing spend." ---"Gregory Stewart is aiming to have 400,000 members by start of 2026, which could more than double those figures. Stewart also explained to me how some 80% of its users, like me, weren’t using a fitness app before joining, and 50% had never tried one at all—meaning that the company has managed to tap into a gym-goer market that competitors haven’t yet been able to reach." ---“We think we’re just getting going,” Gregory Stewart says. https://lnkd.in/gyHUKMmh
