How We Help You Build Your Best Self: The Exos Gameplan

Written by Team Exos | Mar 11, 2025 12:45:01 PM

We have human performance down to a science.

From NFL fields to military bases to corporate offices, Exos has been helping humans thrive since 1995. No matter how you define “work,” enhancing workplace performance is about working smarter, not harder.

Whether you're leading a team, training for an event, or simply trying to feel better in your daily life, our coaches meet you where you are, with what you’re actually interested in.

As such, Exos coaches help create personalized, research-backed Gameplans for our members. The result? Higher energy, engagement, and productivity all around.

Here’s a peek at how Exos helps raise your team’s potential.

How We Coach People

A lot of companies offer fitness, nutrition, and performance advice. But what sets Exos apart is more than what we coach — it’s how we coach.

Science-Backed Guidance You Can Trust

Nowadays, there’s endless content on wellness and productivity. But it’s filled with conflicting opinions, misinformation, and fads. Exos coaches cut through the noise and provide sound, science-backed strategies tailored to each individual.

Personalization & Progress Over Perfection

We’re not here to force everyone to be a perfect productivity guru. We’re here to help people feel better, perform better, and feel good while doing it. That starts with meeting you and your team where you are — whether you're an executive navigating high-pressure decisions, or a working parent juggling work and home life. 

Compassionate Accountability

Beyond their extensive knowledge, Exos coaches focus on trust with a human touch. When showing up to a workout or breathwork session is the last thing you want to do, your Exos coach will be ready to lift you up and celebrate your progress.

How Does the Exos Gameplan Support Performance?

The Exos Gameplan is made up of 6 primary pillars: 

  1. Training — Working out with intention to build strength, endurance, and resilience
  2. Fueling — Eating and hydrating in a way that sustains your energy and mental clarity
  3. Sleep — Creating habits to enhance both the quality and quantity of your sleep
  4. Reflection — Building self-awareness to make lasting, meaningful improvements
  5. Self-Regulation — Learning how to shift your internal state to meet the demands of any moment
  6. Daily Movement — Incorporating light activity, e.g. walking, stretching

Each component of the Exos Gameplan plays a crucial role in improving performance in the workplace.

We get it — your plate is already full. The last thing you need is another overwhelming program that demands perfection. 

The good news: You don’t need to master all six at once.

In fact, you already do all of these things every day — you eat, sleep, move, and think. The Gameplan is simply about finding ways to do them a little better each day.

Your coach’s job isn’t to add extra tasks to your plate. It’s to help you expand the size of your plate so you can take on more over time.

1. Training: Raising Your Capacity

How does working out raise your performance at work? Well, training doesn’t just help you build muscle or run faster. 

Training raises your brain and body’s potential to tackle the demands of life. And it makes both an immediate and long-term impact. 

Through structured workouts, Exos coaches help individuals set and reach strong performance goals — enhancing workforce efficiency through stamina and focus.

How Training Supports Workplace Performance:

  • Immediate impact: uplifts mood, energy levels, and mental clarity
  • Long-term benefits: sustains high energy, improves stress management, and enhances decision making

2. Fueling: Sustaining Energy and Mental Clarity

Our focus and energy are greatly influenced by how we eat and hydrate.

By making smarter fueling choices, you can support your performance throughout the day and reduce your risk of burning out.

Exos nutrition specialists can create personalized fueling plans to help elevate your energy and focus at work.

How Fueling Supports Workplace Performance:

  • Prevents brain fog and afternoon slumps
  • Helps regulate mood and stress levels
  • Provides sustained energy for consistent productivity

3. Sleep: Recovering With Purpose

Don’t overlook sleep when you’re thinking of how to be more productive at work.

People that sleep well see direct improvements in their workplace performance.

Without quality rest, people naturally struggle with memory, creativity, and reaction time. Your Exos coach can offer personalized sleep tips, including how to improve your sleep environment and habits.

How Sleep Supports Workplace Performance:

  • Boosts resilience, enhancing stress management
  • Reduces emotional reactivity and likelihood to make errors
  • Enhances cognitive function, improving problem-solving and decision-making

4. Reflection: Building Self-Awareness for Growth

Reflection is about more than just looking back. It’s about increasing self-awareness to be more intentional with future actions. 

Reflective practices empower people to understand their strengths, identify areas for improvement, and align their work with their purpose.

A workforce that reflects regularly can pivot, improve, and evolve. Exos coaches often start and end sessions with reflective practices like meditation to help people tune into their past, present, and future state.

How Reflection Supports Workplace Performance:

  • Helps people set and refine meaningful goals
  • Strengthens adaptability in high-pressure situations
  • Enables continuous learning and growth

5. Self-Regulation: Mastering Stress and Adaptability

Self-regulation is the ability to shift internal states “up” or “down” to meet the demands of any moment.

Whether it’s managing stress before a big presentation or refocusing after a tough conversation, self-regulation is key to sustainable performance.

One classic mode of self-regulation is breathwork, a favorite of Exos coaches. Say you’re feeling overwhelmed, jittery, or flat — your coach can help you self-regulate in the right way for the moment.

How Regulation Supports Workplace Performance:

  • Prevents emotional exhaustion and burnout
  • Enhances focus and efficiency, improving overall workflow
  • Helps employees maintain composure and clarity under pressure

6. Daily Movement: Staying Active Beyond Workouts

Unlike structured training, daily movement is about intentional, proactive activity throughout the day. 

To prevent aches, stiffness, and productivity walls from sitting all day, integrate small movements such as walking, stretching, and midday dance breaks.

Exos coaches lead “Recharge Breaks” to help people reset their brains and bodies while staying active.

How Daily Movement Supports Workplace Performance:

  • Increases blood flow to the brain, improving focus and creativity
  • Prevents stiffness and discomfort, boosting overall well-being
  • Enhances energy regulation, reducing the likelihood of burnout

Thrive In Your Own Way

By working with Exos coaches, your company can help the whole workforce succeed across each individual Gameplan.

Over time, you and your team members will thrive under higher pressure, raise your peak performance, and sustain long-term success without the burnout.
