Hi, I’m Lexi Johnson, founder of Lexi J Wellness and 1st Phorm Elite Athlete.
If you’re anything like the women in our community, you wear a lot of hats: mom, wife, friend, employee, caregiver… and somewhere on that long list, you’re also trying to take care of yourself.
The problem is, most fitness solutions weren’t built for real women with real lives. They ask for hours you don’t have, equipment you don’t own, and confidence you don’t feel yet.
Lexi J Wellness was born out of that exact tension. I didn’t start this as a polished “brand.” I started it the way many of you started your journeys: with minimal equipment, limited time, and a deep desire to change my life and the lives of the people I love.
Here’s how it began, and why I believe Lexi J Wellness is the most practical, sustainable at-home workout option for women who just want something that actually fits their life.
How It Started
Back in 2020, I was a dental hygienist who worked out solo at a commercial gym. When the pandemic hit, my gym shut down, and like everyone else, I had to pivot. My husband and I scavenged Facebook Marketplace for dumbbells and started working out in our unfinished basement.
Around the same time, I witnessed something incredible—my dad completely transformed his life and, in doing so, changed our entire family’s future.
My dad had struggled with his weight his whole life, and he suffered four heart attacks. As his daughter (who thought he hung the moon), it was heartbreaking to see him helpless in a hospital bed, over and over again, starting when I was in elementary school and into my college years.
Eventually, I wrote him a letter. I felt desperate and needed my dad to take control of his health. That letter changed everything.
What happened next was nothing short of inspiring. My dad lost 120 pounds. I watched his confidence soar. I saw his relationship with my mom flourish. He earned a promotion at work. He started riding bikes and playing with my nieces and nephews.
That single lifestyle change didn’t just change his life alone—it rippled outward, transforming so many others.
This is when I was set on fire by the power of a domino effect. Growing up in a town of just 400 people, the idea of making a big impact seemed impossible. But watching my dad’s journey taught me that even one life changed can create a domino effect that reaches so many more.
So there I was, in our basement with bare concrete walls and secondhand dumbbells, recording 28-minute workouts, talking to my camera as if I was working out with a friend. My goal was simple: to make fitness accessible, fun, and effective.
I wanted to help people struggling with confidence, consistency, and self-worth. What started as a small idea while working as a full-time dental hygienist has now grown into a movement.
Together with my team, we’ve helped thousands of hardworking people from all over the country, just like you, find their strength and transform their lives.
Today, that “unfinished basement” idea has turned into a complete at-home solution designed specifically for women who want to get stronger, healthier, and more confident without setting foot in a gym or sacrificing hours daily.
Here’s why I believe Lexi J Wellness is the best option for women’s at-home workouts:
28 Minutes, Dumbbells, and a Plan You Don’t Have To Overthink
Every workout is full-length, follow-along, and guided. I do the entire session with you, so you never have to guess what to do next. You just hit play and move with me using dumbbells and the space you already have at home.
Built for Real Women 30–50 With Real Schedules
Our programming is quick, effective, and intentionally structured so you can fit it in before the kids wake up, during nap time, on your lunch break, or after work.
You don’t need a fancy home gym. You just need consistency and a willingness to work.

Inside Lexi J Wellness, you’re not doing this alone. We have an incredible community of women working through the same struggles: confidence, consistency, self-worth, and time.

I watched one person’s transformation change an entire family. That’s the standard we hold ourselves to at Lexi J Wellness: not quick fixes, but ripple effects. We care about your strength, your health, your confidence, and the example you’re setting for everyone who’s watching you.
