Why More People Are Choosing Home Workouts

Working out at home has become more than just a pandemic workaround — it’s a lifestyle upgrade. Here’s why so many women and LGBTQIA+ individuals are ditching the traditional gym and embracing the home gym life:

1. Safe, Comfortable Space

Your home is your sanctuary — a space where you call the shots. For LGBTQIA+ folks and women, this can mean the difference between dreading your workouts and looking forward to them. When you're working out at home, you’re not worrying about being stared at, misgendered, or feeling like you don’t belong. It’s just you and your goals — no judgment, no pressure.

2. Flexibility That Fits Your Life

With home workouts, there’s no need to block off two hours to drive, park, wait for equipment, and shower at a gym. Your workout can happen before work, during your lunch break, or after the kids go to bed. You can do it in leggings or in your pajamas — whatever works for you. Getting fit at home gives you the freedom to be consistent in a way that works with your life — not against it.

3. More Focus, Less Distraction

No waiting for machines. No dodging sweaty gym bros. At home, you can fully focus on your movements, your breathing, and your progress. That focus turns workouts into something deeper — not just about how you look, but about how you feel. You’ll build strength, confidence, and self-trust — every rep, every set, right in your own space.

But Here’s the Thing: You Still Need Structure and Support

This is where most people get stuck with home workouts:

  • “I don’t know what exercises to do.”

  • “I’m not sure if I’m doing it right.”

  • “I fall off track after a week or two.”

It’s totally normal. The truth is, structure and accountability are the key ingredients missing from most people’s solo workout routines. That’s why virtual coaching is the perfect complement to your home gym setup.

Meet Exhalo Fortis Virtual Coaching: Real Support, Real Results

🔥 Your Fitness. Your Way. Backed by a Real Coach.

With Exhalo Fortis Virtual Coaching, you get all the benefits of professional support — without ever needing to step foot in a gym. This isn’t some cookie-cutter workout program or AI-generated routine. This is personalized, human coaching that adapts to your goals, lifestyle, and equipment.

Whether you're aiming to lose weight, build strength, or just get more consistent with your movement, your coach works with you to make it sustainable — no matter your fitness level or what gear you have on hand.

🏡 No Fancy Equipment? No Problem.

You don’t need a squat rack and a set of bumper plates to get started. With Exhalo Fortis, your coach builds a plan around what you already have — whether it’s a full home gym, a few resistance bands, a yoga mat, or just your own body.

This is fitness without barriers. It’s about starting where you are — and building from there.

What You Get with Exhalo Fortis Virtual Coaching

Let’s break down what this powerful coaching experience includes — and why it works so well for women and LGBTQIA+ folks looking to get fit at home.

Monthly 1-on-1 Coaching Call (30 Minutes)

You’ll kick things off (and check in every month) with a real-time video call to set clear, achievable goals, talk through challenges, and review your progress. These aren’t generic sessions — they’re personal, real conversations about what’s working, what’s not, and how to keep you moving forward.

Weekly Custom Workouts Based on You

Your coach creates personalized workouts based on your goals, feedback, schedule, and available equipment. Whether you’ve got 15 minutes or 45, your plan adjusts to your life.

Daily Direct Messaging & Accountability

You’re never left guessing. Your coach checks in regularly with encouragement, tips, and accountability. Got a question about your form? Feeling unmotivated? Just shoot a message. You’re not doing this alone.

Video Form Checks + Exercise Library

Not sure if your squat form is on point? You can submit videos for feedback and form correction. Plus, you’ll have access to a full video demo library inside the EXFO App to guide you through every move.

Scheduled Workouts with Reminders

The EXFO App keeps you on track with workout reminders and scheduling tools so your goals don’t get lost in the chaos of daily life.

Progress Tracking That Feels Empowering

Track progress through photos, measurements, personal bests, and more — all in one place. Watch your strength grow and your confidence rise.

Syncs With the Tools You Already Use

The EXFO App integrates seamlessly with Apple Watch, MyFitnessPal, Fitbit, Google Fit, Withings, and more — so your fitness and wellness data are all in one spot.

Freedom to Add Your Own Workouts

Feeling inspired to do an extra yoga session? Want to go for a hike? You can add your own workouts to your program, making it easy to honor your energy and motivation.

The Magic of Real Coaching + Home Workouts

Let’s be honest: self-motivation is hard. Life gets busy. Energy levels fluctuate. Some days you feel powerful, others you’re barely holding it together. This is where having a real coach becomes a game-changer.

✨ A Coach Helps You Stay on Track

They see the bigger picture — even when you can’t. They remind you of your progress, help you move past plateaus, and hold you accountable to your goals in a kind, affirming way.

✨ A Coach Adjusts Your Plan to Real Life

Got an injury? Feeling burned out? Traveling? Your coach will tweak your plan based on what’s happening in your world. No guilt, no shame — just support that meets you where you are.

✨ A Coach Reminds You That You’re Worth It

This journey is about more than reps and sets. It’s about reclaiming your body, your energy, and your power. A great coach becomes part of your support system — cheering you on, lifting you up, and reminding you that you deserve to feel strong and confident.

Why This Matters (Especially for Women + LGBTQIA+ Folks)

Fitness isn’t always inclusive. Traditional gyms can feel performative, binary, or just flat-out uncomfortable. But with home workouts and a virtual coach who sees and respects you, you get to rewrite the rules.

This is your body.
Your fitness.
Your way.

Whether you’re stepping into your first workout in months or training for a personal best, Exhalo Fortis Virtual Coaching ensures that you’re seen, supported, and celebrated.
