There is a drag and drop feature that allows you to create your own workouts. Because of the ability to see how each exercise will act on specific muscles, this is a great app for creating corrective workout plans.
Pro 3D model clearly shows muscular system
The app uses a 3D model that you can rotate, zoom in, and view 3 layers of muscle.
Pro Ideal for learning which exercises act on which muscles
iMuscle 2 explains how an exercise acts on both the primary and secondary muscles.
It allows you to select a muscle and see a list of exercises for strengthening and stretching it.
Pro Great organization of anatomy
The UI and hierchy of systems and body parts makes the most sense compared to other anatomy apps. It is name/text based rather than icon which helps in clarity and learning/memorization.
Pro Sharing friendly
Other software requires you to explicitly contact the company if you want to create or use images from the software to share, be it a patient or friends/family member or while teaching (think power point or walking students through a procedure). Biodigital Human explicitly makes sharing of images or 3d model snapshots feature easy legal and effective.

Con Not specifically an educational app
With this app, you learn more about the muscular system by exploring the different muscles and which exercises act on those muscles.
