My EXI Community
1,460 members
The EXI Community is here to support you on your physical activity journey. If you have questions, ideas or worries, please share them here. EXI has experts in behaviour change, exercise, and our fabulous customer support team on hand to respond to your posts. More importantly, here you can connect to other people on a physical activity journey using EXI. So reach out and share your experiences, because there are people just like you who would love to know they are not alone. EXI is an award-winning app that will support you to become more physically active. Research shows even the smallest amount of physical activity, set at the right intensity, can make a huge difference to our health. This is why we say ‘Anything is Everything’. Designed by health experts, for people with long term health conditions, EXI uses the latest science and medical guidance to provide you with a safe, personalised physical activity plan, based on your current health status and physical activity habits. Your plan will be set at the appropriate level for you, wherever you are at in your physical activity journey, and gradually progresses over 12 weeks. Your plan will set goals for how often, how long and how hard the activity should be each week, starting as low as just 3 sessions of 10 minutes of low intensity activity per week. You choose how you achieve those goals, so there is no need to go to a gym or class if you don’t want to, you can do the activities you love. EXI includes a library of physical activity sessions set at the appropriate intensity level, or you can log your own activities in the app. EXI also recommends a wearable health device, such as an Apple Watch, to n order to understand your intensity levels better. EXI tracks your progress, so you can always see how close you are to your goals. If you have been provided with EXI by a healthcare professional, they can also see your progress, so you can discuss when reviewing your condition and treatment.
