Women 40+

The rules change after 40. Here's what most women don't know.

The more you understand what's changing, the easier it becomes to work with your body instead of against it.

Muscle matters more than ever.

Almost every health conversation after 40 eventually comes back to muscle.


Muscle influences metabolism.
Bone health.
Blood sugar.
Balance.
Recovery.
Long-term independence.


The challenge? We naturally begin losing muscle as we age, making it more important—not less—to strength train consistently.


Muscle is non-negotiable after 40. PVOLVE's resistance-based workouts help women build and maintain it.

Lean muscle mass continuously declines over the course of years in a woman’s body, and muscle is the organ of longevity and needs to be built in order to stay strong. Strength and resistance training will create more muscle mass - not bulk - and women should be encouraged to incorporate weight training into exercise routines."

Dr. Jessica Shepherd

PVOLVE Clinical Advisory Board, OB/GYN & Menopause Expert

Your body doesn't recover the way it used to.

One of the biggest changes women over 40 notice isn't during the workout.


It's the day after.


Recovery isn't as quick as it used to be.


Soreness sticks around.


Energy takes days to return.


If every workout leaves you wiped out for several days, consistency becomes difficult.


PVOLVE challenges your muscles while respecting recovery—so you can train again tomorrow instead of waiting until next week.

Your body needs more than strength. It needs stability and mobility.

Strength matters.


But strength without stability is harder to use.


Strength without mobility is harder to keep.


PVOLVE trains all three together because that's how your body actually moves through everyday life.


Not one muscle at a time.


As one connected system.

Start training with PVOLVE →

4

Hormones change how your body responds to exercise.

As estrogen declines, everything shifts.


Recovery take longer.


Where your body stores fat often changes.


Bone health deserves more attention.


None of this means your body stopped responding.


It simply means the strategy changes.


That's why PVOLVE is built to work with your hormones, not against them — so your body keeps responding, instead of just working harder.

At 45 years old, I’ve carved out a waistline that I didn’t think was still there. I started PVOLVE bc after 20 years of working out I knew I needed something that was fast and effective. I absolutely love the results that I am getting with PVOLVE."

Reviews Summary
Pvolve Members say this fitness equipment collection is comfortable, versatile, and effective for full-body workouts. They find the ankle weights stay in place well and provide the right amount of resistance without being too heavy. The precision mat is praised for its thickness, cushioning, and alignment markers that help with proper positioning, though some note it can bunch up or leave indentations from the carrying strap. Members appreciate the P.3 trainer's versatility and unique design for targeting multiple muscle groups. The resistance bands and P.band are frequently mentioned as travel-friendly and effective for upper body work, with users noting they provide good resistance and core engagement. Many reviews highlight the slant board's ability to enhance balance, stability, and core activation. The equipment is consistently described as high-quality, durable, and well-made, with members often expressing they initially hesitated to purchase certain pieces but found them valuable additions to their workout routines. Several users mention the equipment works well together as a complete system and enhances their overall workout experience.

    Love Pvolve

    I've worked out at the gym, done aerobics, kettlebells, Peloton and, Pilates. I've tired online trainers and hired trainers at the gym. Pvolve tops them all. At 59 what I need is functional fitness that does not hurt my body, produces change and, is not cumbersome to do. No matter your age, this is needed. Thank you!

    I had an injury to my rotator cuff a year and a half ago. I've been working on getting full movement and strength back. Pvolve has done that. I highly recommend it. Do the stretching and foam rolling as well. We need it all.

    Love the slant board! I’ve had my first one since I started pvolve 6 or so years ago and I needed a new one because of the grip on it. The slant board has given me so much mobility and strength in my bad ankle. I highly recommend but be prepared it is a humbling piece of equipment!

    Great help even with mobility issues

    For such a small piece of exercise equipment it’s pretty powerful and you can feel it right away. I have not gotten on the video yet to work with it. I have balance issues and use a walker and this helps greatly with my arms however I’m still going to buy a couple of more pieces for leg strengthening, even if you are recovering from an injury and or need muscle strengthening, this is still easy to use

    Filing a complaint

    PVOLVE is great for people who have the time to scroll through hundreds of workouts. I don't, and have been on the site maybe 5 times. I wanted to love it but found it overwhelming. I had actually considered looking to see if it was worth re-joining, now that it's summer and I have more time (I teach) though I'm pretty injured at the moment - and wasn't sure I wanted to weed through videos.

    My one star rating is because I have just realized that EVEN THOUGH I SIGNED UP FOR 1-YEAR ONLY, PVOLVE reached out to an OLD EMAIL THAT WASN'T USED OR MONITORED anymore, told me that hadn't charged me enough (they had, it was a promotion and I'd bought a ton of equipment) and TOLD ME they'd be changing my account to a monthly one instead of a 1-year one, what a great price/fee that would be, and have been charging me for more than a year since then. I am still figuring out how much they charged me but it's a lot! I don't look closely at my PayPal, and missed it. I NEVER GAVE THEM PERMISSION TO CHANGE MY ACCOUNT OR CONTINUE MY MEMBERSHIP - I DO NOT DO MONTHLY MEMBERSHIPS FOR ANYTHING OTHER THAN SPOTIFY, and they send me monthly emails. I haven't been online using their service for any of that extra time I was billed. I will reach out to customer service - I've just discovered this and haven't reached out yet - but am done with the company and filing complaints if there isn't a decent resolution.

    Obviously I'm writing this review pretty upset - I'm sure this company and these…

    This mat helps with proper position.

    The mat is great to help with correct position. However, I like to work out barefoot and the mat is slippery instead of grippy. I am a short person, so I sometimes have to slightly modify where my feet land in comparison to the instructor.

Reviews Summary
Pvolve Members say this equipment is versatile and effective for their workouts. The P3 trainer stands out for its portability and multifunctional design, making it ideal for travel. Many reviews mention the high quality construction of all pieces, from the sturdy slant board to the comfortable ankle bands. Common feedback includes appreciation for the unique design of the P.band for upper body workouts and the effectiveness of the ankle bands for lower body exercises. While most equipment receives strong praise for durability, some note needing to replace bands after about a year of regular use. Users particularly value how the equipment integrates seamlessly with the workout programs. Many reviews highlight the compact nature of the tools, which store easily at home and pack well for travel. First-time users express initial surprise at the effectiveness of seemingly simple pieces, especially noting the versatility of the P3 trainer and P.ball for full-body workouts.

    I’m really enjoying the Essentials bundle and the online video exercises and have recommended to family and friends. I really wish the was an upgrade bundle that includes the equipment for the total transformation bundle not included in the essentials bundle so you don’t have to buy the equipment separately.

    I love that the trainers are very personable clear and relatable.

    I love that everything feels simple and accessible. From the equipment to the streaming classes, I feel completely at ease. I like being in my home without tons of equipment spilling out everywhere. Everything feels compact and manageable. I can bring things on a short trip and go on the app and take whatever class I wish to take. I also feel like it's basically affordable for me. Since I started 6 months ago I've lost 25 lb and look and feel better than I have in over 2 years. People have noticed and have asked what my secret is. I say I've been using the Pvolve method and eating a healthy diet.
