Food and nutrition tracking
Log meals, scan barcodes and follow calorie and macro targets that adjust as you check in.
Turtle Method is a women’s health app that brings food, movement and mindset together.
Founded by Scott Flear, Louise Thompson and Ryan Libbey, Turtle Method helps women build routines they can keep. Nutrition, strength training, cycle tracking and daily coaching sit together in one app.
What Turtle Method does
Practical tools for the things you do each day.
Strength and movement
Choose home or gym workouts, build a routine and record the training you complete.
Cycle and symptom tracking
Log periods and symptoms alongside your other daily records, so you can see them in context.
Sleep and daily check-ins
Track how you feel, reflect on your day and review patterns in your routine.
Mindset coaching
Listen to podcasts and follow guided programmes, including Turtle’s 14-day masterclass.
LeanShield feedback
Use the LeanShield wellness score to reflect on protein, nutrition and training habits that support muscle.
What makes Turtle different
Turtle’s approach makes room for your body, your circumstances and the days that don’t go to plan.
People comparing nutrition apps may also consider MyFitnessPal or Cronometer. Turtle brings food tracking into a wider routine of movement, reflection and coaching.
A women’s-health focus
Cycle and symptom tracking sit alongside nutrition and training, rather than in a separate diary.
Mindset is part of the routine
Podcasts, guided programmes and check-ins give you ways to reflect on habits as well as record them.
Consistency over crash diets
Turtle encourages steady changes and regular reviews, with targets that can adjust over time.
Strength alongside nutrition
Workouts and LeanShield feedback keep protein and resistance training in view as you work towards your goals.
Space for real life
Holiday and pause modes help you change the routine when your circumstances change.
