The Hardest Part of Group Workouts? Engagement.
When workouts don’t change:
• Groups get bored
• Energy drops
• Participation fades
People start checking out — even when they show up.
And when engagement is gone,
fitness starts to feel forced, not fun.
It’s not a motivation problem.
It’s a structure problem.
Groups don’t need harder workouts,
they need something to play.

Fueling Gains, Unity, and Friendly Rivalries
BoardGains has been a game-changer for our gym. We run classes with adults and kids, splitting everyone into teams, and the competition gets real—only one team wins and earns bragging rights for two weeks! It’s more than just a workout; it builds strength, unity, and that fun, competitive edge our members love.
Mechelle B. (PE Teacher)
Middle School Phys Ed classes loved it!
We have large numbers in our classes, this game got ALOT of students involved and most importantly MOVING. Challenging, but fun. We will break this out often! Thanks!!!

Better Together
I got BoardGains for Christmas and love it! You can play solo, but it’s even better with friends, kids, or groups. It’s easy to follow, super fun, and gives a great workout—we laughed so much, especially during planks! Highly recommend if you want to get fit and have fun. Add dumbbells or bands to level up. Endless options!
Coach Lalonde (Group Fitness Instructor)
A well-built, well-designed fitness game.
As a fitness coach with 25+ years of experience, I’m always looking for fun, engaging workouts—BoardGains nails it! It delivers a full-body workout with strength and cardio, works solo or in teams, and is super portable—we even play live on Zoom! The board is durable, well-designed, and packed with surprises. Highly recommend—10/10!
Niki (PE Teacher)
Great Highschool PE game
I played this game with my varsity field hockey team and it gave them quite the workout. The instructions are pretty simple to explain and the exercises are good as well. Great competitive game.
The Bay Coaching Facility (Group Fitness Instructor)
Great game!
Great game! We've been using it with our kids during our summer camp and they love it. I highly recommend it, it's fun & unique.
ELVIS (Parent)
Great workout for 1 or more players!
My daughter and I played this game last night and it is challenging and a great workout. It took us about 45 minutes to finish and we were exhausted and sweaty. I love that it contains everything needed to get a solid workout.
Lauren M. (Teacher)
Amazing for HS Personal Wellness Class
The first time I used it myself and my students really enjoyed it! Nothing wrong with a little competition!! For the price it was a no brainer to buy it. Especially since I had to use my own money!
Teirsa (Couple)
Love it!
My husband and I played the game. It was a fun, friendly competition. We made our target 7 gains. He completed 7 I completed the 5. The send back to high plank killed me. And I swear I landed on every single burpees square. It was a very hard but fun workout. So happy I bought this game! Our next plan is to have a couples competition

Built by a Trainer. Tested With Real Groups.
Hey — I’m Eric, founder of BoardGains.
With 10+ years as a trainer and a degree in Kinesiology, I kept seeing the same problem:
Workouts lost energy fast
when everyone did the same thing.
Inspired by board games — and shows like Survivor — I started turning workouts into a game.
Suddenly fitness felt:
- Fun
- Social
- Competitive
And something people actually looked forward to.
That’s how BoardGains was born —
a Bootcamp in a Box you can play anywhere anytime.
Is BoardGains Right for My Group?
Here are the most common questions trainers and teachers ask.
How many players can play?
BoardGains works for small groups or large classes. Play solo, in pairs, or in teams — from a few players to 40+ people at the same time.
How long does a game take?
You control the length. Set your Gains Goal to run a quick warm-up, a main workout, or a full session — from 15 to 40 minutes.
- 3 Gains → 10–15 minutes (warm-up or finisher)
- 5 Gains → 20–25 minutes (main workout)
- 7 Gains → 25–35 minutes (full session)
Run one round or stack multiple rounds.
Do I need equipment or planning?
No. BoardGains is ready to play right out of the box.
No equipment. No setup. No workout planning.
The game runs the workout for you.
All exercises are 100% bodyweight and use stationary movements, making BoardGains easy to run in small spaces or crowded classes.

BoardGains works for kids, teens, and adults. Exercises include simple modifications so everyone can play at their own level.
Where can I use BoardGains?
Anywhere. Indoors or outdoors — gyms, schools, parks, or at home.
