Jennifer Aniston discovered Pvolve in 2021 after a back injury and later became an advisor to the company, praising it as a gentler approach to fitness for aging bodies. The 55-year-old actress wishes she had known about it 20 years earlier to avoid unnecessary strain on her body.

A November 2024 University of Exeter study validated Pvolve's effectiveness for menopausal women. The research, involving 70 females across different menopausal stages, demonstrated significant improvements after 12 weeks:

  • 19% increase in hip function and lower body strength
  • 21% increase in full-body flexibility
  • 10% increase in dynamic balance, mobility, and stability
  • Increased lean muscle without total body mass gain

Pvolve's functional strength training program combines resistance equipment with clinically proven methods, incorporating movements in all three planes of motion: front-to-back, side-to-side, and rotational. This comprehensive approach helps combat age-related issues like:

  • Decreased muscle mass
  • Reduced bone density
  • Diminished agility
  • Balance problems

The program specifically addresses aging women's needs by:

  • Focusing on functional movements that mirror daily activities
  • Providing gentle yet effective strength training
  • Incorporating stability exercises to prevent falls
  • Maintaining mobility and independence

To participate, users must purchase one of three equipment bundles (starting at $199.99) and subscribe to streaming classes. In-person classes are available in select U.S. locations, with all packages including a 30-day risk-free trial.

Certified personal trainer Tami Smith emphasizes that this type of resistance training is crucial for aging women, helping protect bones, muscles, joints, and ligaments while maintaining independence in daily activities.
