This is a very well-designed workout app which should almost certainly deliver the promised results if you’re consistent and stick to the program.
If you are going to seriously jump into the program in this app for squats then I would definitely suggest that you take a look at the other apps that the developer has to offer.
It is important to take the rest of your body into consideration, and I think that using multiple apps by the developer will enable you to take a somewhat more holistic approach to your training and exercise.
Diddly Squat
When you first start using Squats, you’ll be taken to the main workout screen which shows you which week and day of the program you’re on, as well as containing the rep schemes you’ll be doing on each given day.

This screen also offers periodic motivational quotes which I think is a fantastic addition for helping to put things into perspective on those days that you just don’t feel like getting off the couch and getting your butt moving.
The workouts themselves are accompanied by female vocal coaching to guide you through each phase of the session, usually including an initial stretching phase followed by sets of squats with rest periods interspersed between.
Great Squat!
A quick note on static stretching before exercise: this has been proven in recent studies to put your tendons, joints, and muscles at an increased risk of injury.

You should do some active stretching moves first and save the static stretching for the end when your muscles and other tissues are nice and warm and less likely to be injured.
After completing each workout you’ll earn various rewards, referred to as “Wins.” You can also share each of your workouts with your friends and family online via Twitter, Facebook, and email.
