I am absolutely obsessed. I am one of the laziest people on the planet, only play World of Warcraft and work in IT so I live a very sedentary lifestyle. I actually look forward to doing my 45 mins of Supernatural every single day. I originally had it set to 5 days per week for my goal and ended up WANTING to do it every single day.
Its been a couple of years for me now. I love it. Ive lost 50lbs since. That was lost mostly through dieting, but getting in shape qas a bonus. I also us synthriders, moonrider, beatsaber and fitxr boxing to keep things fresh. For non vr strength training I do so wall pilates and resistance bands. I never could exercise before in a meaningful way, and any attempt was miserable. VR changed all that.
This is the only exercise I've ever done that I look forward to, and I feel that the coaching is valuable. I paid for the subscription early on, well before the end of my trial. I can feel the depth of the workouts in my muscles.
An oldster in 2023, and while it could definitely add in some things and update some options... I need that professional, licensed music, and figure that's what I'm really paying for. Though mostly rock-- and that would be my personal cardio playlists-- I can do cardio to lots of genres and it is very cool to have symphonic, dubstep, and even pop music from artists I generally wouldn't ever hear. I also like the coaches and their positive upbeat chatter, though I know some don't and I guess you can turn it off. But yeah...
We bought an Oculus as our family Christmas present in 2021. I downloaded Supernatural and quickly became addicted to it. My goal this year, as a very busy mom and independent business owner, was to just "show up" i.e. give more time to working out and not just working. I've been having physical issues due to stress and weight, and I really need to get myself in a better place. We have Beat Saber too, but Supernatural has way more music and a larger variety of movements. They're also working on expanding from the arm targets and triangles to knee targets. They shared a sneak peek video in the FB community. I'm extremely happy with it. I find myself squeezing in workouts whenever I can. I was hesitant at first when it came to the coaches. I thought they would just be noise, but I find their reminders throughout the exercise to be really spot on and I even enjoy when they get a little goofy (check out the Valentine's Day workouts). BTW, great job on your first video.
I watched three other Videos about this game. You are the first person to literally discuss and thoroughly answer every question I had in my mind about this app. You did an amazing job and I am just now noticing at the end you said this is your first video and I am so surprised you don’t have like 1 million subscribers lol. You should possibly do video on your favorite oculus accessories too
I'm only on week 1 but I'm hooked! I absolutely hate excercise. Love activity and games, but the word aerobics or yoga or treadmill was instant dread. I am 53 and have a physical job and struggled making it through the day. I am hopeful that this will get me where I want to go. And it's fun, did I say it was fun!!!
Totally agree. The coaches and music makes every workout seem fresh and the moves aren't too repetitive. I really look forward to this everyday and sometimes get so into I'm doing it hours on in I love the playlist.
I think it's also super important to note that it is NOT available outside of the US and Canada... I bought a Quest 2 to get back into fitness while having fun, and was surprised to not find it in the store
By FAR the best Supernatural review video! I almost gave up on trying to get some feedback and wasn’t going to try it. Stumbled on your video in one last bid, and I’m so grateful I did. I’m signing up for Supernatural right now. Thanks!
I've never wanted to work out so much. I went from 1-2 days a week when I first started to every day for 45-60 min a day. I sit in a chair all day for work and gaming but I can't wait to work out with Supernatural every day. I even started stretching every morning with out it. 10/10 recommend.
Great info. Very well done for your 1st video. Had you not said it. I would have never guessed. Great production pacing and OMG audio. I'm not a content creator but I know some stuff about streaming, video and audio production and it blows me away at the amount of creators who can't record decent, normalized audio. Good job Jacked.
This is an amazing fitness workout! Exactly Beat saber is a game and a fun game. SN is a workout. Seems mellow at first until you really start going and the coaches remind you to focus on your form which is so important. Its easy to forget your are actually working out! I LOVE IT. My other new favorite is Audio Trip.
Your 1st video is great! New Supernatural addict since January 2024. New way for me to work out. OG gym rat. Love Supernatural!!! Everything hurt after 1st time. Yes!!! Keep the videos coming.
Well said. I started Supernatural 3 weeks ago and I'm hooked. I noticed my energy levels are higher overall, especially at the end of the day and I feel stronger. The feeling after completing a high intensity workout is amazing and I've enjoyed connecting to others in the fb community. Overall, I feel like I'm definitely getting my moneys worth.
'm an avid fan of supernatural. I think your review hit the nail on the head. And the visuals are tantalizing even though they don't capture the elegant VR world of the Supernatural scenarios. Technically speaking, your voice modulation and pacing, were terrific, especially for first-time video. May you have much luck in future videos.
You did excellent! I will take your suggestion and order the strap and covers after I've used my Oculus Quest headset. I just ordered it and it is on the way!
For transparency Beatsaber has the free music-mapping AI engine Beat Sage for custom songs/levels and infinite replayability. These levels are not designed or voiced by fitness coaches, but are challenging and come in different flavors--free single saber, 90 deg, standard 0 deg, no arrows, and $25/month patreon for 360 deg levels. All levels go from Novice to Expert+, and there's mirror mode in native Beat Saber. I expend the full quest 2 battery and the extended battery without getting bored, burning 1200 calories when setting my weight 125 lb and height to 5.7ft every session thanks to Beat Sage levels.
Love my supernatural !! Been on it since February, I have lost 21 lbs so I will keep doing it 😊 Just wanted to point out that Supernatural has boxing and meditation too , that I also love 💕
I bought a quest at the end of January ..I have always hated working out! Someone suggested this app so I tried the free trial ..I was hooked after the first week! I am obsessed with this app and use it daily ..I went from only being able to do a 8 min. low intensity flow to now a 40 to 60 min High intensity flow at a time and can't wait to workout the next day..Worth every cent!!
Fitness was the very last thing I picked a Quest 2 up for. I didn't even know VR fitness was a thing! But a friend talked me into buying Audio Trip and trying Supernatural out...and now fitness (and mindfulness) are the main things I use my Quest for! For me personally....the $20 monthly subscription fee for Supernatural is very reasonable.
lol it's the same for me. I'm a big gamer, and the thing I wanted vr for most was to get immersed in horror. But I basically just play beatsaber, this, and meditation apps. :)
Love playing best saber - used on a friends VR all through lockdown, just got oculus quest 2 and been playing beat saber but don’t have hacked version where you can add your own music - so thinking supernatural would be great for fitness and you’re review was fantastic! Well done for your first video!! 5 stars!! 👊👏👏👏
Got an oculus quest 2 a week ago and got supernatural and the year membership today and it's pretty awesome. Man, it gets the blood pumping and I'm sore from earlier today. Looks like it'll be a great investment!
I just ordered an Oculus Quest 2 specifically for Supernatural to add to my fitness regimen. Every single review has been great. It'll be here Sunday. I can't wait!
One thing you forgot to mention is the meditations. I love the workouts but I do a meditation after each one. Sometimes with a coach or just music and stare at the different environments. One big thing in treating anxiety is just to notice the world around you and be in the moment. Each environment is so beautiful with little particle effects like dust, snow, volcanic ash, swirling water and others. You are also completely alone and the colors are so vibrant. Compare the environments to google street view you and will see that they hyped the environments up to 100% and removed all excess that would be distracting. You can stare at glaciers, ancient ruins, lakes, deserts etc. They are the most beautiful places you can imagine. Turn a fan on to get an even more immersive experience.
This was a really helpful video that I've shown to others. It's hard to describe supernatural to someone that isn't familiar and you did a great job. Thanks!
Thanks for the video. You did a great job. I just signed up for Supernatural this week. By the way, it is only a week trial now. But I am doing three workouts a day. My goal is to get my heartrate up. So far, I am loving it.
Very good! I know nothing about Supernatural but I like tech and I've had an experience with Oculus that was really fun. I need a new form of workout. You talked about all the things I needed to hear in order to get a good understanding of how it works and what you get. Well done.
I agree with you. I enjoy the work outs. I will be interested in how long it keeps my attention. So far I'm hooked. It's been a week. I like the mental benefit. I think I sleep better. Great video,
New subscriber...... 53yo, ex fitness addict that'snow 40lbs over weight, smoker, with shoulder surgeries in the last few years.... unused gym memberships, and have been looking for something that will be fun, and keep me motivated. THIS is what I've been waiting for! Only had it for about 3 weeks now, and I already feel better and more range of motion in my joints. I can't wait to see how I feel after a few more months.....
Great review! You pretty much summed up why I’m so glad I got the Oculus 2 - Supernatural is INCREDIBLE - I really enjoy working out and hope to keep it up!
Same for me!! I hate working out but am loving my supernatural trial!! I will definitely be subscribing. I think another big diff is that the workout doesn’t keep track of “streaks” and if you miss a bunch in a row, that’s totally fine. In beat saber and similar games, it’s about streaks, and will pull up game over real fast if you miss a bunch! Totally diff motives. It really does make a big diff on enjoyment as a workout!
I remember when Beat Saber came out I was like "Why are they not making a fitness version for this". Maybe even have weights that attach to the controllers somehow so you can go heavier as you get stronger. I plan on getting an Oculus 2 when they come back in stock so I can get this program and Beat Saber.
I just saw the review for weights that can be added to the quest hand controls by Kiwi. I think theybwould be a great addition to the boxing workouts on Supernatural.
I've done this two days ago. So sore I had so much fun that I overdid it. As soon as I feel better I'm back on it. I pray I can tomorrow. Actually enjoy working out on this app
Is the boxing feature new ? That’s why I picked it up if not for that it would be a beat saber clone but the boxing is great and totally different in its own way
Good review. I was a gym rat for decades (until the pandemic) .along with cycling (indoor and out). SuperNatural became part of my routine when I couldn't get to a gym....and I still love it. One tip...check out their YT video on proper form...it's way to easy to forget form when carried away by the app.
I really like Supernatural- and I play much more now that they've added the boxing. I wish they had entire classes with the coaches though. That would be awesome and something no one else is doing that I know of
I got beat saber for active game play but I found that I was doing more wrist bends/flicks and that was not good for my carpal tunnel. I also found my eyes were getting extremely tired playing beatsaber- no matter how I adjusted the graphics. SN is calming, encouraging and designed with more full body movement required to hit the balloons with force of your entire arms in swing. I also love the playlists. Beatsaber playlists are a lot of EDM and it's not for everyone. I'm subscribing to SN after my trial is over!!
This has definitely got me interested even more. Plus the comments about the workout. I been wanting to start working out but this looks fun and effective. Definitely looking into this
LOL! What you're saying about the coaches is absolutely true! I thought the coaches were COOOORRRRNY for the first few months, and I purposely put the coaching volume down on my headset and concentrated on the music... Now I have a few coaches that I love!- Coach Doc and Leanne, and I love to hear their commentary even when I'm playing... go figure!
Yasssssss! 💯 agree! I have never worked out in my life and here I am waiting every single day to do my 60 minutes with Supernatural 😂😂😂😂 i’m gonna be a model by the end of this year 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Great job on the video! I'm new to Supernatural and was looking for a video to share with friends who might also be interested in this terrific app. Thank you!
My son likes Beat Saber and I recently got him to do Supernatural with me so we can track scores and compete a little, but I see him treating it like Beat Saber so it isn't really going to have the same fitness impact it would if it was being used as intended. I think an important difference is that Beat Saber is more about accuracy and speed, but Supernatural SHOULD be approached keeping form in mind. It's meant to be for a workout, if you focus on speed too much then you are just flicking your wrists, but if you try to keep in mind it's about moving your body correctly and working your muscles then it's a very different thing, it's important to hit hard and follow through, to pay attention to how you position your feet and legs and how deep you lunge. I kind of wish they would score it differently so it rewarded correct form instead of focusing so much on speed. I am not at all into exercise, but I am having so much fun with this. One really nice thing is that I will pick a few routines and when I'm done it feels like it's only been a few minutes when it's been nearly an hour. The focus on hitting targets and keeping your body lined up right and listening to the coaches while enjoying the music really takes your mind off of how long you've been doing it. I usually do a Flow, a Boxing, then either a stretch or a meditation every day and I'm excited to get on it as soon as I get home from taking my boys to school. I also really enjoy how encouraging the coaches are, you can tell they really give a crap about what they are doing and are having fun.
supernatural is definetly a better workout. In beat saber you just use your wrist for highlevel play because the less moving you do ther faster you can hit notes and the easier it is but with supernatural the goal is to litterally tucker your self out and get the workout in. Super natural shines in its boxing mode though which really does seperate itself from beat saber
Completely different range of motion from one app to the other. Supernatural is designed to target specific muscle groups. BS is not. You can definitely benefit from BS, however it's a game at the end of the day and Supernatural is not.
Nice video. I'm in the category of never worked out before, and I am hooqed with supernatural. I hope to make it a lifestyle. Definitely worth the subscription money.
Nice overview, thanks Jacked In. A shame it's only available in North America. I'd love to get in shape with this thing, but alas - those of us in Europe have no chance. (well unless we jump through hoops with VPN, american credit cards etc)
Actually, I DO jog and/or power walk several times a week. I've done this for years now, but I honestly don't care for the cold, and it's cold where I am. And it would be nice to do something different. The supernatural looks fun. I might give it a go. Thank you for sharing this info.
I was very skeptical the occulus would do anything for me but after my failed attempts at trying to get my husband to return it (but then his Christmas gift LOL), I figured since the occulus wasn't going anywhere, I might as well give Supernatural a try. So far, I actually look forward to making time in my day to do it. Coaches are so "smiley" it kinda rubs off after a while. I wonder if they will have actual live stream classes in the future. If i don't have to drag my ass to a gym, I just might do it.
Great first video! I'm highly considering buying the quest 2 and this game. I have a torn meniscus which makes continuous running difficult and the bike at the gym gets repetitive. I really want to get into VR gaming and this game looks very fun, interesting and looks like it will get my blood pumping as well.
I think the music on Supernatural is much better than Beat Saber unless you know how to add custom songs to Beat Saber - but it takes time to hunt down custom songs, and they often come with poor routines with only one difficulty level. For the sake of time and consistently good workout songs, Supernatural is worth the money.
I’m like a week into doing this consistently and I love it. I did the best saber demo and hated it so I never paid for it lol but I will gladly pay for supernatural- it’s worth the entire cost of the damn headset tbh.
I hated exercising and was never motivated to stay with anything for any decent period of time. Supernatural is awesome. I'm literally looking for opportunities to jump on. 30 minutes between work calls ...let me get on supernatural and knock out a workout. It's fun, the coaches are motivating and funny, the scenery is amazing and the music is really great. Totally worth the $20/month.
I personally play Beat Saber daily and I choose certain songs prior to each "play" so it for sure can work for losing weight. The downside to Supernatural is the free trial being apparently difficult to cancel, and being automatically charged for the next month. I just move MORE in Beat Saber! So yeah, at the end of the day - both are great for losing weight just depends on if you want to go with a sub.
I don't use Supernatural but I've burned 115,000 calories on my Quest 2... That's like 30 pounds of human effort. Had my goal been to lose weight I could have lost a massive amount just playing video games.
I am absolutely obsessed. I am one of the laziest people on the planet, only play World of Warcraft and work in IT so I live a very sedentary lifestyle. I actually look forward to doing my 45 mins of Supernatural every single day. I originally had it set to 5 days per week for my goal and ended up WANTING to do it every single day.

Same. I started 10 days ago and skipped one day when i was hungover and feel guilty. I look forward to it everyday.
Its been a couple of years for me now. I love it. Ive lost 50lbs since. That was lost mostly through dieting, but getting in shape qas a bonus.

Excellent delivery for a first video - keep going! First I've heard of oculus or Supernatural but they sound intriguing.

Is the boxing feature new ? That’s why I picked it up if not for that it would be a beat saber clone but the boxing is great and totally different in its own way
Good review. I was a gym rat for decades (until the pandemic) .along with cycling (indoor and out). SuperNatural became part of my routine when I couldn't get to a gym....and I still love it. One tip...check out their YT video on proper form...it's way to easy to forget form when carried away by the app.
I really like Supernatural- and I play much more now that they've added the boxing. I wish they had entire classes with the coaches though. That would be awesome and something no one else is doing that I know of
Brilliant! incredibly helpful. thank you!
Second week with the OQ 2 and so far, I've used XR Fitness more than the Supernatural. Deciding which one I'll keep...
I got beat saber for active game play but I found that I was doing more wrist bends/flicks and that was not good for my carpal tunnel. I also found my eyes were getting extremely tired playing beatsaber- no matter how I adjusted the graphics. SN is calming, encouraging and designed with more full body movement required to hit the balloons with force of your entire arms in swing. I also love the playlists. Beatsaber playlists are a lot of EDM and it's not for everyone. I'm subscribing to SN after my trial is over!!
This has definitely got me interested even more. Plus the comments about the workout. I been wanting to start working out but this looks fun and effective. Definitely looking into this
Love your video it made my decision quite easy! I’m subscribing to get supernatural 🎉
I don’t see any 30 day trial. All I see is 14 days which I don’t believe is long enough to see if it actually works.
LOL! What you're saying about the coaches is absolutely true! I thought the coaches were COOOORRRRNY for the first few months, and I purposely put the coaching volume down on my headset and concentrated on the music... Now I have a few coaches that I love!- Coach Doc and Leanne, and I love to hear their commentary even when I'm playing... go figure!
I agree! I forget I’m working out because it’s so fun.
even before I started I knew that video games would be my only incentive to any form of physical work out.
Well explained and informative! Thx
Worth every penny. I actually look forward to working out on it everyday.
Yasssssss! 💯 agree! I have never worked out in my life and here I am waiting every single day to do my 60 minutes with Supernatural 😂😂😂😂 i’m gonna be a model by the end of this year 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
As a supernatural subscriber, watching this video when the white and black balls coming make my arms want to move.
I just did my first Supernatural workout today and it was great!
Great job on the video! I'm new to Supernatural and was looking for a video to share with friends who might also be interested in this terrific app. Thank you!
I don't get it. Where are the Winchesters?
Does anyone know how to change the portal and turning around for limited space?I got rid of it but forgot where and now I want it back lol
My son likes Beat Saber and I recently got him to do Supernatural with me so we can track scores and compete a little, but I see him treating it like Beat Saber so it isn't really going to have the same fitness impact it would if it was being used as intended. I think an important difference is that Beat Saber is more about accuracy and speed, but Supernatural SHOULD be approached keeping form in mind. It's meant to be for a workout, if you focus on speed too much then you are just flicking your wrists, but if you try to keep in mind it's about moving your body correctly and working your muscles then it's a very different thing, it's important to hit hard and follow through, to pay attention to how you position your feet and legs and how deep you lunge. I kind of wish they would score it differently so it rewarded correct form instead of focusing so much on speed.
I am not at all into exercise, but I am having so much fun with this. One really nice thing is that I will pick a few routines and when I'm done it feels like it's only been a few minutes when it's been nearly an hour. The focus on hitting targets and keeping your body lined up right and listening to the coaches while enjoying the music really takes your mind off of how long you've been doing it. I usually do a Flow, a Boxing, then either a stretch or a meditation every day and I'm excited to get on it as soon as I get home from taking my boys to school. I also really enjoy how encouraging the coaches are, you can tell they really give a crap about what they are doing and are having fun.
supernatural is definetly a better workout. In beat saber you just use your wrist for highlevel play because the less moving you do ther faster you can hit notes and the easier it is but with supernatural the goal is to litterally tucker your self out and get the workout in. Super natural shines in its boxing mode though which really does seperate itself from beat saber
The thing is, you can treat Beat Saber in exactly the same way, I have exercise targets set up and use those to be active, no need for a sub.
Completely different range of motion from one app to the other. Supernatural is designed to target specific muscle groups. BS is not. You can definitely benefit from BS, however it's a game at the end of the day and Supernatural is not.
Nice video. I'm in the category of never worked out before, and I am hooqed with supernatural. I hope to make it a lifestyle.
Definitely worth the subscription money.
Nice overview, thanks Jacked In. A shame it's only available in North America. I'd love to get in shape with this thing, but alas - those of us in Europe have no chance. (well unless we jump through hoops with VPN, american credit cards etc)
Seriously damn fun and a great workout.
Actually, I DO jog and/or power walk several times a week. I've done this for years now, but I honestly don't care for the cold, and it's cold where I am. And it would be nice to do something different. The supernatural looks fun. I might give it a go. Thank you for sharing this info.
Dude! Use a soft towel or something. Paper towels contains sand and will scratch the lenses if used over and over.
I was very skeptical the occulus would do anything for me but after my failed attempts at trying to get my husband to return it (but then his Christmas gift LOL), I figured since the occulus wasn't going anywhere, I might as well give Supernatural a try. So far, I actually look forward to making time in my day to do it. Coaches are so "smiley" it kinda rubs off after a while. I wonder if they will have actual live stream classes in the future. If i don't have to drag my ass to a gym, I just might do it.
I can't find it on the app store
Not available in the UK
Super helpful! Thank you!
Great first video! I'm highly considering buying the quest 2 and this game. I have a torn meniscus which makes continuous running difficult and the bike at the gym gets repetitive. I really want to get into VR gaming and this game looks very fun, interesting and looks like it will get my blood pumping as well.
I think the music on Supernatural is much better than Beat Saber unless you know how to add custom songs to Beat Saber - but it takes time to hunt down custom songs, and they often come with poor routines with only one difficulty level. For the sake of time and consistently good workout songs, Supernatural is worth the money.
Fitbeat is my shit, but I play it on expert
I’m like a week into doing this consistently and I love it. I did the best saber demo and hated it so I never paid for it lol but I will gladly pay for supernatural- it’s worth the entire cost of the damn headset tbh.
I hated exercising and was never motivated to stay with anything for any decent period of time. Supernatural is awesome. I'm literally looking for opportunities to jump on. 30 minutes between work calls ...let me get on supernatural and knock out a workout. It's fun, the coaches are motivating and funny, the scenery is amazing and the music is really great. Totally worth the $20/month.
I havent really tried flow yet but the boxing was intense. I really enjoyed it. Im trying to burn 100 calories every day during my 7 day trial.
I personally play Beat Saber daily and I choose certain songs prior to each "play" so it for sure can work for losing weight. The downside to Supernatural is the free trial being apparently difficult to cancel, and being automatically charged for the next month. I just move MORE in Beat Saber! So yeah, at the end of the day - both are great for losing weight just depends on if you want to go with a sub.
I don't use Supernatural but I've burned 115,000 calories on my Quest 2... That's like 30 pounds of human effort. Had my goal been to lose weight I could have lost a massive amount just playing video games.
That was a very useful video, thanks
Really well done
