Pvolve and Jennifer Aniston Launch “Strength Redefined” Challenge to Kick Off 2025

The Six-Week Fitness Program Features New Workouts Inspired by Aniston’s Personal Pvolve Routine, Focusing on Progressive Weight Training and Functional Movement

NEW YORK, Jan. 2, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Pvolve, the clinically-proven workout that pairs functional movement with cutting-edge resistance equipment, is redefining strength training with Jennifer Aniston, world-renowned actress, producer, and director, with the announcement of the “Strength Redefined” Challenge to kick off 2025. The Challenge is modeled after Aniston’s own Pvolve program and gives members unprecedented access to her routine. The six-week challenge features a unique curation of Pvolve workouts that Aniston credits for helping her to achieve the strongest version of herself.

“Thanks to my Pvolve workouts, I feel the strongest I have ever been,” said Aniston.

The Challenge, running January 6 through February 17, arrives at a pivotal moment when strength training is growing in popularity, with a recent survey finding that “building muscle” was the number one fitness goal for 2024 (35.9%)*.

Members will experience four new workouts each week, guided by Aniston’s hand-picked training team: Dani Coleman, Maeve McEwen, Antonietta Vicario, and Zach Morris. The programming features the brand’s three signature class types: Progressive Weight Training, Strength and Sculpt, and Sculpt and Burn, making it a fully comprehensive regimen to build strong, resilient bodies that stand the test of time.

Pvolve first introduced its Progressive Weight Training Class two years ago, and it quickly rose to the top as a member favorite class both in studio and on-demand. The class blends Pvolve’s signature dynamic functional movements with heavier weights to build total-body strength, increase bone density, and combat the natural muscle loss that accompanies aging.

“Adding Progressive Weight Training was exactly the push I needed as I advanced in my routine with Pvolve,” said Aniston. “What makes it unique is how it blends Pvolve’s signature dynamic movements and emphasis on mobility, stability, and balance with heavy weights. Since adding it to my workouts, I’ve watched my entire body transform, plus I love that I’ve built up the strength to pick up heavier weights over time.”

The Strength Redefined Challenge builds upon Pvolve’s foundation of creating programming that effectively supports longevity and improves health spans for its members. Pvolve’s Healthy Aging Study, showed that Pvolve improves lower body strength by 19%, lower body balance and mobility by 10%, and flexibility by 21%, among other impressive outcomes.** This study was recently published in the American College of Sports Medicine’s Official flagship journal and validates the strength and mobility improvements Aniston and many others have achieved through the program.

“The research is clear – muscle loss is the silent pandemic of our time—it’s stealing our ability to live longer, healthier lives,” says Julie Cartwright, President of Pvolve. “The Challenge is the perfect program for people who wish to work towards reversing this trend. It will help our members unlock their full potential, build deep strength, and redefine what it means to age well.”

“This Challenge was so much fun to create because it reflects what Jen and I do in our sessions together,” said Dani Colemen, Pvolve’s Director of Training and Jennifer Aniston’s Pvolve Trainer, “Jen is so strong and has continued to get even stronger, so we are thrilled to give members a first-hand experience of how she trains. We hope this Challenge motivates the community to start the new year strong, get moving, and stay accountable.”

To help Challenge participants succeed, Pvolve has partnered with leading wellness brands to offer exclusive benefits, including special offers from Trifecta Meals, Lolavie, Rosewood Las Ventanas, and WeGym. Members will also gain access to a dedicated WhatsApp community for ongoing motivation and special Live Virtual Studio events.

The Challenge is available through Pvolve’s digital on-demand platform, and studio locations across the US and Canada. Registration opens January 2nd at Pvolve.com.

SHANGHAI, Jan. 7, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — On December 29th, SANY Silicon Energy reached a significant milestone in the international “Solar + Storage + Diesel” microgrid power generation sector by launching the Zambia Ruida Mining Microgrid Power Project. This initiative is recognized as Africa’s largest single-unit hybrid microgrid designed for mining operations, highlighting SANY’s commitment to promoting green energy transformation and sustainable development throughout the region.

Distinguished as Africa’s largest microgrid project designed for mining activities, the venture encompasses a 13 MWp solar photovoltaic (PV) system in conjunction with a 39 MWh battery energy storage system and a diesel generator as a backup power source. These components synergize to form a cutting-edge integrated microgrid system seamlessly harmonizing solar, storage, and diesel technologies. The project’s primary objective is to ensure a steadfast and dependable electricity supply for mining operations, consequently achieving energy self-sufficiency, diminishing reliance on conventional energy sources, and bolstering energy efficiency and sustainability.

Exhibiting the hallmark “SANY Speed,” the project swiftly progressed from the signing of the Power Purchase Agreement (PPA) to its commissioning within a mere four months. Despite navigating challenges posed by Zambia’s intricate topography, severe climate conditions, and logistical impediments stemming from underdeveloped infrastructure, our team demonstrated remarkable adaptability and operational efficiency.

The successful inauguration of this project signifies a pivotal juncture in SANY’s eco-conscious mining endeavors across Africa. It lays a robust groundwork for the continent’s green energy trajectory and reinforces our unwavering dedication to advancing sustainable energy solutions on a global scale.

Drawing on the expertise and technological capabilities developed through this initiative, SANY is dedicated to “Illuminating Africa” at “SANY Speed.” By actively driving the implementation of additional green energy projects, SANY seeks to lead global renewable energy trends and contribute Chinese innovation to the worldwide energy transition.
