P.volve reviews and discussion

To be honest, I don’t get the hype. I feel like this whole workout is a gimmick to sell their workout equipment, much of which is either not effective or could be substituted with alternative gym equipment the average person has on hand. False marketing (to be fair, not unlike a lot of other workout programs) but this one in particular fees ineffective.

A cool concept, a leader of its kind, but I imagine it's difficult to retain customers. The brand popped up in my Instagram feed a little after the world entered into a pandemic lockdown. Working out at home was the only option for many people like me. I signed up for the trial and ordered a few pieces of equipment. The order arrived relatively quickly. But I didn't continue the workout or equipment as I didn't find them all that useful/effective. The ball and sliders are now sitting in a corner collecting dust...

Great gift for a Pilates passionate family member. She has purchased a few items from p.volve and loved including them in her workout routines so I purchased the resistance bands which have also been great! They are all very high quality and designed for specific exercises in Pilates routines.

Absolutely love P.Volve!!!! These kits are amazing for giving you an incredible low impact workout but keeping you in tip top shape. The classes that go with it are also the best! Instructors are fun and effective. Much better than any other online instruction I’ve had in the past. It’s also really great for travel!! 10/10!

I'll echo the other review here...very cool concept but I feel like it oversells a dream of looking like a model and the reality is I don't think it's nearly as effective as barre or other similar workouts. I spent nearly $100 on all of the custom equipment you need, only to cancel my subscription after 2 months. I think it would be so much easier to buy into without all of the custom equipment and if they were a bit more realistic about the results. I'm a naturally lean person, but I'd imagine for anyone else you'd be disappointed.

If I can't see the classes it is useless..... I want to stream on to my TV rather than my phone. Who can see a screen that size?

I use Pvolve almost exclusively for it progressive weight training. I normally hate weight training, it’s so boring. Pvolve makes weights less painful because all of the moves are compound, usually involving balancing on one leg.

There seems to be a lot of hate on here for pvolve, but I've had a good experience. The equipment is pricey, but the monthly streaming fee is very reasonable. I've been doing pvolve off and on for several years. I first started using it to heal from an accident. It worked! I built a lot of stregnth and gained mobility. As someone who struggles with autoimmune disorders, this is the only workout I've tried that doesn't trigger a flare-up...and I've tried a lot. A good diet, pvolve, and walking will absolutely get you into shape. It takes time and consistency, but it does work without creating a bunch of inflammation.

You cannot use the equipment without paying the 14.95 for classes..they don't even have standard classes that are not live, like pre recorded so that the equipment can be used. I wasted $200 on the initial purchase to only have to continue to pay.
