FAQ ABOUT THE OBÉ PLATFORM

What is obé?

obé is a modern fitness platform designed to cut the guesswork out of working out and empower women to fall in love with moving their bodies—for good. Take a quiz to share your fitness goals, and we’ll create a personalized, progressive at-home workout plan for you to follow (in minutes!). 

Like to do your own thing? Try out 20+ class types across 10,000+ on-demand classes with options from HIIT, Dance Cardio, and Boxing to Strength, Pilates, Sculpt, and more. Go for a progressive training program when you’re ready to learn something new (like Yoga or how to run a 5K) or reset your fitness routine with a 7-14-day challenge. Plus, explore features like cycle syncing workouts, class suggestions based on mood, Express options for busy days, and more.  

What does personalized fitness mean?

Goodbye, guesswork. We create a tailored fitness plan just for you to follow, with progressive classes selected specifically for your goals and preferences. Taking workouts à la carte can help you get into a workout routine and enjoy some fitness benefits—but to feel and see more substantial results like a change in your body composition, weight loss, increased strength, or better stamina—following a progressive plan is key. 

How it works: You take a short quiz and tell us about your workout preferences, habits, and goals. From there, we’ll curate a personalized class plan that will auto-populate in your Schedule tab. You’ll always have 2 weeks of progressive classes, which refresh and update as you go. You also have the flexibility to move classes around or pause your plan to accommodate your schedule and life! 

Where is obé available?

obé is available only to residents of the United States and Canada. If you live outside the US or Canada, you can sign up for obé if you have an American or Canadian credit card. However, certain features like live classes may not be available.

What equipment do I need?

obé classes are designed for all levels, so many of our workouts are designed to be done with your body weight—just filter by “no equipment” in our class library. You can always level up with resistance loops, dumbbells, ankle weights, and sliders. Some of our newer class types involve extra equipment, such as a bike, jump rope, or kettlebell. 

How often do you add new classes to the on-demand library?

New on-demand classes are added daily! We like to keep it fresh around here.

When is obé live?

We live-stream classes 6 days a week. Check out the live schedule—automatically adjusted to your time zone—for exact class times. Pro tip: add them to your calendar for a reminder ahead of class! 

How do I stream obé classes?

You can stream obé on your web browser, the iOS app, or the Android app. The bigger the screen, the better the experience. We’re compatible with Chromecast and Apple TV (more on how to stream to your TV here). 

Please note: obé is not compatible with your Smart TV’s web browser.

Can I share obé with a friend?

Yes! You can share a 30-day Guest Pass with anyone who’s not (yet!) an obé member. 

Can I take classes offline? 

Going somewhere without WiFi—maybe an exotic travel destination, camping getaway, or somewhere quiet and remote? Perhaps you’ll spend some time abroad outside the U.S. or Canada? obé members can download and save up to 30 on-demand workout classes directly to their obé iOS app, thanks to offline mode. Read how to add them to your library here

Do you offer personal training?

We do! With obé Personal Training, you can get one-on-one coaching from your favorite instructors. They’ll work with you to level up your personalized plan based on your goals and check in with you via chat. This is the perfect way to get extra accountability and support in your fitness journey.

Do you offer cycle tracking and cycle syncing resources?

Of course! With Collections like Working Out On Your Cycle, cycle tracking, and insights, there are tons of tools on obé to help you get more in tune with your body. 

How can I connect with the obé community?

Join the conversation and tap into daily fitness tips, tricks, and educational resources on the obé Instagram. You can also connect with obé members outside of class in our private Facebook group

Will my membership automatically renew?

After starting a free trial, you’ll automatically be billed for the membership plan you selected (monthly or annual) after your trial period unless you cancel prior. Both annual and monthly memberships will automatically renew unless you cancel before your next billing cycle.

How do I apply a promo code?

When signing up, after you’ve selected a subscription plan, enter the code in the box that says ‘Gift or Promo Code.’

Promo codes are only valid for new membership subscribers at the time of sign-up on www.obefitness.com.

Can I use my HSA/FSA funds to cover my obé membership?

Yes! Because we believe fitness is preventative healthcare, we’ve partnered with Trumed to make it simple and easy for you to put your HSA/FSA dollars towards your obé fitness membership. 

Here’s how to do it:

1. Visit the Truemed x obé website here and follow the steps to confirm you qualify for a Doctor’s Letter of Medical Necessity (LMN). 

2. If you qualify, Truemed will e-mail your LMN (don’t worry, we’ll cover the cost of getting it!).

3. Submit the LMN and your obé receipts to your HSA/FSA provider to get reimbursed for the full cost of your membership. 

Pro tip: If you have an annual obé membership, you’ll only need to submit for reimbursement once a year. Covering your membership with pre-tax dollars also saves you an average of 30-40% on top of the 40%+ you save annually. Even more reason to upgrade! 

Can I switch my subscription from monthly to annual?

Yes! You can upgrade to annual and join the Level Up Club at any time, Once you switch your membership plan from monthly to annual, you will automatically be charged a prorated annual membership fee. The amount is determined by subtracting the unused days from your current monthly billing cycle. Please note you may only downgrade your membership plan from annual to monthly when you are within 30 days of your renewal date.

What’s the benefit of an annual membership?

Besides saving on your membership (with annual, you pay $14.17/month instead of $24.99/month—that’s 43% less!), you’ll also be able to access exclusive classes like Level Up Club Stacks, plus enjoy special offers and discounts from our partners.
