How Fabletics Turns Workouts Into $1B+ Revenue

Steal the secret sauce behind those addictive activewear drops

What up,

Ever wondered why certain activewear brands dominate your feed AND your wallet?

Well, you're about to know.

I dissected Fabletics' empire-building playbook, and it's the most brilliant mix of community, celebrity power, and psychological triggers I've seen in the fitness space.

Here's how they turned stretchy pants into a billion-dollar machine—and how you can steal these moves for your own brand.

1. Dual-Power Brand Voice:

Fabletics masterfully balances empowerment with approachability. 

Every caption hits you with that "kick butt, look cute" energy while making you feel like you're part of their inner circle.

Your move: Create a two-word brand mantra that combines strength + accessibility and weave it through EVERY touchpoint.

2. Platform-Perfect Content: 

Instagram gets the polished, aspirational content. 

TikTok gets the raw, comedic energy (check their Godfather parody that went viral). 

YouTube gets the mini-documentaries.

Your move: Map your content calendar with platform-specific formats—no more one-size-fits-all posting.

4. Challenge-Driven Engagement:

Their #Fabletics21 and #31DaysOnTheMove challenges turn passive scrollers into content creators. 

Each challenge comes with daily prompts, prizes, and community spotlights.

Your move: Launch a 7-day challenge with a branded hashtag and a gift card prize for best transformation.

5. Inclusive Visual Identity:

Every campaign showcases diverse bodies, ages, and backgrounds—but always with that signature high-energy aesthetic and bold color palette.

Your move: Audit your last 15 posts. If they don't showcase at least 3 different body types, reshape your visual strategy immediately.

FRESH MOVES TO STEAL:

  • Create a "Don't-Call-It-An-Ad" Series: Film a 3-minute short in the style of your favorite movie genre to launch your next product.

  • Run a UGC Powerhouse Campaign: Offer to feature the best customer photos using your product with a specific hashtag across your homepage.

  • Launch Platform-Exclusive Drops: Release limited collections that can ONLY be accessed through specific social platforms.

  • Design a Sub-Brand Strategy: Create separate handles for different audience segments (like Fabletics did with FableticsMen and FableticsScrubs).

  • Host Live Interactive Workouts: Schedule monthly livestreams where followers can influence the routine through real-time polls.

Pick just two of these, implement them in the next 30 days, and watch your engagement (and conversion rates) skyrocket.

Catch you on the next drop,
