We tried Jennifer Aniston’s go-to Pvolve workouts — here’s our honest review

You needn’t be friends with Jennifer Aniston to access her workout routine.

The actress is a longtime proponent of Pvolve, a low-impact, full-body strength training brand she first partnered with in 2023.

“In all the workouts I’ve tried over the years, this one has transformed my body more than any of the others — and it’s a really enjoyable workout that I don’t feel intimidated by, that I don’t dread,” she told People at the time.

She’s sung the virtual program’s praises several times since, in addition to creating her own bundle and logging sweat sessions with Pvolve head trainer Dani Coleman multiple times a week. (“Jen is really consistent in her workouts,” the fitness pro told Page Six Style.)

To find out whether the program’s truly worth the hype, we put the brand’s Signature Bundle to the test ourselves. After all, who wouldn’t want to take notes from Aniston’s ab routine?

What is Pvolve?

Founder Rachel Katzman created Pvolve in 2017 after suffering from scoliosis pain during high-intensity workouts and searching for a more low-impact, functional fitness option.

“We believe getting results shouldn’t come at the expense of your body and you shouldn’t have to choose between looking good and feeling great,” she says in a joint statement with Aniston on the brand’s site.

In order to access the virtual classes, you’ll need a subscription to the brand’s at-home streaming service (either $180 annually or $20 per month, following a seven-day free trial).

While some classes are bodyweight only (or require minimal equipment that you could likely substitute), Pvolve offers several pieces of proprietary equipment for the full experience.

The Signature Bundle I tried — which features the P.ball, P.band and Precision Mat — allowed me to partake in plenty of workouts. (If you want to own the complete Pvolve collection, there’s also the deluxe Total Transformation Bundle.)

Shoppers can purchase equipment individually, too — including the Slant Board, Gliders, Ankle Weights and more. (We’d recommend taking a look at the classes first to see what most interests you.)

Our Pvolve review

As a former college cross-country and track runner that suffers from frequent sports injuries, I was immediately intrigued by Pvolve’s low-impact branding. (The brand even calls itself “pre-hab,” promising to “help you move better and reduce pain and injury.”)

The workouts remind me of a pilates reformer without the bulky machine, and I like how the P.ball and P.band help ensure you’re keeping proper form. (While the number guide on the mat could be useful as well, I ended up swapping it for a regular yoga mat since it was too large for my space.)

The streaming library offers options for a huge range of class lengths and focuses, and I especially enjoyed some of the 10-minute classes for days when I wanted to tack on a little strength to a cardio workout.

Unlike some other apps, the music isn’t selected by instructors and you can pick a shuffled playlist of whichever genre you prefer. (While I like the customization, the lack of curation means the pace of the music isn’t always tailored to the workout’s level of intensity.)

Overall, however, my biggest complaint about Pvolve is the cost. If you already have a gym membership or other fitness-related costs, $20 a month is a hefty budget addition. (Especially given competitors like Peloton charge as low as $13/month.)

The final verdict

In my experience, Pvolve delivered its promise of a challenging yet low-impact strength workout at home. If you have room in your budget and plan to be consistent with classes, the subscription could be a worthwhile investment.

How we tested

I tested a variety of Pvolve classes of different lengths and difficulties, incorporating multiple pieces of the brand’s proprietary equipment.

Throughout my testing, I prioritized the following points:

• Accessibility: Was the equipment easy to use?
• Workout quality: Did the workouts feel effective and easy to follow?
• Value: Was it worth the cost of the equipment and streaming service?
