What is we hate exercise and why should you do it?

We’ll get you exercising your way with coaching, daily check-ins, and a supportive community.

How it works

We Hate Exercise is a 12-week program currently offered through select health care practices and health insurance companies. You sign up, select your preferred start date from those available, and are paired with a team that aligns with your needs. If a team is not available now, we'll let you know when it is!

Step 1 join a team

The first thing you’ll do is get placed on a supportive team with others who struggle to exercise consistently.

Step 2 answer some questions

Next you'll share your exercise history, goals, and the obstacles that have gotten in your way—so we know exactly how to help.

Step 3 get personalized coaching

Then you'll message with your real human coach (not AI!) to set an achievable exercise goal tailored just to you - walking daily, jogging a few times a week, yoga on the weekends, etc. The coach will help keep you on track with whatever you decide.

Step 4 receive daily motivation

For the next 12 weeks, every time you log in to track your progress, we’ll be waiting with tools to keep you going—additional coaching, science-based tips, fun prizes, lighthearted exercise challenges, and even a financial pledge you’ve made to yourself.

STORIES OF PEOPLE LIKE YOU

Managing Physical Health

A woman who had stopped exercising years ago due to GI issues—ultimately diagnosed as celiac disease—wanted to start jogging again but had no idea where to begin. With We Hate Exercise, she built her stamina and confidence and ultimately completed a 5K...which she hadn’t done "in years."

Supporting Mental Health

A woman with ADHD noticed her work performance slipping, which was causing anxiety. She enjoyed exercise but struggled to find the time. We Hate Exercise helped her prioritize movement, and with consistent activity, her focus improved and her anxiety decreased—one of her colleagues noticed and said, "You're back!"

Strengthening Recovery

A man recovering from a serious shoulder injury needed accountability for his prescribed daily physical therapy and strength exercises. Using We Hate Exercise during this recovery phase, he stayed consistent, regained strength, and once cleared to start biking earlier than anticipated, felt like he’d "won."
