Pvolving Into a New Fitness Style – Fort Worth Magazine

Its one of the oldest excuses we tell ourselves on a daily basis, if I only had more time in the day, Id workout.

Add motherhood and a full-time teaching gig to this scenario and you get what Fort Worthian Emily Reid was faced with nearly two years ago. However, a chance encounter with a remote fitness program named Pvolve would change everything for Reid, who was trying to get back into a workout routine post-pregnancy.

Apparently, this workout was the real deal, given Reid bought into the Pvolve franchise opening the businesses first Texas locale in Fort Worth at 4500 Hartwood Drive earlier this month.

What I love about Pvolve is it really gives you those traditional results that you want to see in a workout like sculpted arms and weight loss, if that's one of your goals, she says. But it really goes beyond those traditional results and increases joint mobility. We really work on stability and these routines go above and beyond those results for traditional workouts.

Created and co-founded by entrepreneur Rachel Katzman in 2017, Pvolve is an entirely new low-impact big fitness method that has the backing of a clinical advisory board, and expert trainers, as well as its own unique workout equipment. Originally an online fitness course, this new method has taken off like wildfire, even picking up a celebrity endorsement from the likes of Hollywood icon Jennifer Aniston. Today, Pvolve is branching out from the remote health industry and gearing up to open franchises nationwide. Reids studio is the very first one in Texas, with more planned to open in the Lone Star State throughout the rest of the year.

It's totally changed my body and the way I think about working out, Reid says. We're not professional athletes or anything like that, so we're just kind of training to make your everyday life better and easier and more comfortable.

An educator by choice, Reid, holds a Bachelor of Science from The University of Alabama and a Master of Education from TCU. Post-graduation from TCU, Reid spent six years as a full-time middle school teacher at All Saints Episcopal School. This is only to highlight how adept Reid is to a classroom setting, although she found out about this program remotely.

Speaking of remotely, besides the in-studio classes, Pvolve is also available on all computer and mobile browsers as well as its Apple and Android apps. Now, there really arent any excuses, because all we need is an internet connection to get our workout on for whatever timeframe we need. Each remote course can run between 10 to 75 minutes a workout. The equipment itself consists of items like a P.ball, precision mat, gliders, a slant board, and a series of tension bands, to name a few. The precision matitself is very helpful for beginners, Reid says, because of the way the gridislaid out on it.

We really work in all three planes of movement, which means we do a lot of rotation, a lot of internal rotation, and alot of external rotation. Because that's new to a lot of people, and pretty unique to Pvolve, that precision map really helps the trainers. It's a great visual for our clients, who say, it's kind of like Twister. Your left foot should be on the nine o'clock square. We're going to do an internal rotation, so you want your other foot at six and your hip spacing three. So it really helps to give those visual cues and so many people find this helpful. Even if you're just adjusting a few inches, you feel that difference, she says.

This style of exercise is low-impact enough it can be done daily, but Reid recommends first-timers try doing the workouts three times a week at first to see how their bodies react. So, if youve been on the fence about joining a gym or workout class, check out Pvolve on April 27 during the franchise's grand opening to see what this workout method is all about.

People are really loving it, she says. I think that just kind of the whole message of Pvolve, especially for women, just with this different type of workout, it's really important for your health and life longevity. I would love to maybe haveanother location and get more people in the doors and just see what this workout can do for them in the future.
