#1: Get Started
When you join, we recommend beginning with our "Jump Start."
This is a four-week plan designed to give you quick wins and build a strong foundation. We focus on strength training, with Pilates, yoga, cardio, mobility, and daily movement options included. We also cover basic nutrition goals to help you get started strong — no restriction, no extremes, just sustainable habits.
It's easy to adjust the schedule and sessions to your current level — using light to body weight only if you are a beginner or just starting up again, and heavier loads if you are more advanced.
Everything you learn in Jump Start becomes the foundation for what comes next in "Your Best Year Yet" (YBYY.) Our guided email series* will walk you through the entire journey from the Jump Start into every month of YBYY.
*You should begin receiving our emails immediately after signing up, but you can also sign up for them here.
Prefer to explore sessions or mix and match your own routine? Search by theme, series or collection here
Our curated collections, seasons and series are designed to help make finding the perfect workout of the day even easier.
Or, search for single sessions by workout type, duration, equipment and more in your library here.
Our filters make it easy to find options to fit your needs. The filters located in the upper left corner of your library page allow you to search by series, equipment, topic (floor work free, cardio, barefoot, strength, walking and more). duration (find options for the length of time you have today) and level (while most of our routines work for all levels, a few are best for beginners or more intermediate to advanced level exercisers).
**EXISTING DIGITAL CUSTOMERS:** If you have already downloaded purchased programs and used the same sign in (email address and password) for your existing account, you can access your entire library in the same location here, and you will continue to have lifetime access to your purchases, even if your All Access Pass expires.
#2: Decide Where You Want to View Your Videos
Click on your favorite device(s) here to view instructions on how to stream your videos (please note downloading is available with the player app only and is recommended only when necessary for offline viewing since our platform offers the best experience.)
The simplest, most reliable way to connect your compatible device to your TV is with a simple HDMI cable (here's a helpful YouTube tutorial on how this works.)
Use your smart phone, tablet or laptop - no casting required. (Here's our favorite 15 ft cable on Amazon - please be sure to check your device's specifications to find the right fit, and use our 'tap to make this an app' option - see below!)
**IMPORTANT NOTE ABOUT DOWNLOADS:**
Need to access offline? Download our player app to download selected videos (we don’t recommend downloading the entire library all at once due to space limitations) to save for offline viewing. Please make sure you have enough space on your device for the download to complete. Some of our complete programs can require as much as 5-7 GB of disk space. Please note that our "Collections" feature is not available in the player app (though all of the videos included are available in the library).
For the best way to access all of the site features (our "Collections," favorites, info and filter searches are available only through our site platform) or stream through your library at any time through your phone or tablet, be sure to turn our site into an app!
To get started, open the Safari browser to visit the jessicasmith.fitness website.
Then, click on the menu bar (the three white lines in the upper left corner of the screen) to load the menu, and scroll down to view the option to "tap here to make this an app!"
Follow the instructions for your Apple or Android device (if you need more help with an Android device, please click here) to add to your home screen and turn the jessicasmith.fitness site into an app that is readily accessible on your phone or tablet.
#3: Info + Favorites
Program Info - 'i' tab
View video descriptions, details and preview clips by clicking the info tab (it's the ‘i’ in a circle) on the bottom right corner of each video thumbnail. You'll find equipment needed, set up details and more here. It's like a DVD back cover, only better!
Save your Favorites for Future Reference
Save your favorite workouts to find them easily next time (and swap them into your program schedule at any point in the plan!). Simply click on the red star outline located on the lower left bottom corner of the video image to save to your favorites list. You can then click the ‘Show Favorites Only’ star in the upper right (next to the ‘Sort By’ tab) on your library page.
#4: Start Moving!
Push play and let’s get moving! And, while we’re sparkling together, don’t forget your video player buttons (located at the bottom of your streaming player) allow you to:
Rewind or fast forward – skip ahead (or back) to the next chapter, or click the >>| 5 buttons to rewind or fast forward 5 seconds at a time, making it easy to add or remove repetitions or exercises that you may need to skip over, or go back to if interrupted.
Speed Up the Video - Want to move a little faster (or slow down)? Click the 1x button on the menu to pick the player speed that works best for you. Move up to 4x faster or 0.25x slower than the actual video speed.
Volume - Adjust your video volume (beyond your device’s set volume levels) by using the volume/mute button in the lower left of the menu tab bar.
Full Screen - Expand the player to full screen by clicking the outline of a box in the lower left corner of the menu. Click the 'esc' button to return to the player view at any time.
