So good but...

This app is conceptually great. I like how it encourages stretching routines that are not just static. I also really appreciate the foam roller routine.
However, there are two main things that are discouraging/frustrating to me:
1) the initial start of an exercise shows the woman rolling (on foam roller) for about a half of a second. Then she stops. It is very unclear whether or not they are showing you to continue rolling (which would really provide the best stretch/massage), or to remain stationary with the foam roller only digging into one point on your body (which could be very ideal for tension release but is only targeting one spot and doesnt feel like a stretch). Also, the angle is very limiting when it comes to assuring proper positioning/form.
2) there is a whopping 5 seconds or less to "switch sides." This means that it feels rushed to go from one side to the other and if you miss her cue, well then not only do you feel behind, but you miss part of the stretch. In my opinion, you should be able to calmly and efficiently switch sides/reposition, without feeling rushed. Im 26, in decent shape and am regularly active--its rushed.

One other thing, the graphic of her demonstration makes it unclear whether her body is touching the floor in certain areas or not. Such as during the calf stretch. You can not tell whether her buttocks is resting on the floor (makes a very big difference in muscle engagement and the amount of pressure being put onto the calves if it is raised).

I guess you can decide for yourself or work within your own abilities, but the psychology of being led/instructed leads to one wanting to feel, well, effectively guided.

Otherwise, I will say, that after I am through with the foam roller routine, I do feel pretty awesome. This is the only routine Ive tried.

I will continue to use this app, but since they prompted me for a review from within the app, I figured Id share my 2 cents.
