A surprised very fit trainer goes through the SoloStrength workout and is inspired to share the story...

It's always nice to see people on SoloStrength. For me, it's a sense of pride and joy to see the connection, the smiles, the ENERGY, they experience from all the movements. It's a challenge for everyone, but you can use it in so many different ways it's always exciting to see what people wind up doing. I've seen it used as a a Ballet bar, a stretching support, pull up bar, variable pressing bar, and other imaginative things I couldn't even suggest here, but suffice it to say, the versatility is always a big bragging point and something people exposed to it can't stop talking about. Did we design the SoloStrength for women? Well, yes, and no. We certainly considered the needs of women, and from the feedback of most, and what their interests were, the focus was on simplicity. Our goal? What is THE simplest way to provide a support for all the key movements and support for all the best exercise movements. To pass the discerning design tastes, it of course couldn't be an eyesore, and while it had to be substantial and strong, it couldn't be overbearing and unnecessarily large. Does the SoloStrength FUSE qualify? Yes. Is it a coincidence it doubles in off duty time as a great clothes rack better than most? Yes. We consider it a win/win :) Could it be said that the SoloStrength FUSE is the first all in one total body fitness equipment designed and built with the needs of women in mind? Sure, but then it wouldn't quite explain why it works so well for men (and kids) too, so while we we built it for the "most" discerning customer, we have to admit that it's just really that good, for everyone. Women like it for all the different programs that can be done on it (ballet, stretching, pilates, yoga, bodyweight strength and toning), and the speed which they can get through the adjustments without having to hassle with weights or complicated webbing/straps that are also optional. Men like it because they can BLAST their body so quickly, that it's the perfect compliment to cycling, running and sports training programs. Get on it, get out and have fun. It leaves you with incredible energy and total body fitness benefits. Sure, you can take it easy, but what people who are new to bodyweight training don't know is that it is harder and more challenging then you might think. Check out what superfit trainer Vernis Blair had for an experience.

May Blaiz bodyweight exercise workout on SoloStrength FUSE

May Blaiz, fitness competitor and wellness coach, wanted to run through the entire SoloStrength basic program...and we were delighted to see how quickly she enjoyed it!  She is really strong, but the full body weight pull ups were a bit difficult, which gave us a great way to show how moving to the selp spotted versions of the movements allows the FUSE to adapt to anyone's needs.

May brought her partner Vernis to introduce it to him as well, and after watching May, had to jump in and experience it for himself...some of the comments are priceless!  Thanks guys!  Great job!  

Vernis wanted to really hammer on SoloStrength so we invited him back for his own full on session and you can see the Video in out BLOG below or here.  They loved it so much, they took one for their new facility for Higher Level Fitness.  They love the ease of use, versatility and abilty to adjust it for all their clients needs. 

Good luck guys!  Keep on living high performance with SoloStrength!

Thanks a million!!

Here is my story about why I must have a SoloStrength.

First of all, I own the Iron Gym doorway pull-up bar, the PerfectPullup doorway bar, and a Functional Cross Trainer (dual cable weight machine). I use all of these.

Then I discovered SoloStrength. I cannot tell you how long I have been looking for something like this! As a gymnast and dancer this is the ultimate machine! Why? Because you can adjust the bar at about a zillion different heights to do the same exercises and stretches you do in gymnastics. For example, put the bar low, kick up into a handstand and do handstand push-ups - use the sides for balance! Put the bar at about the height of your waist and scoot under it and push yourself down into the splits. Now you can reach back for the bar and stretch into a “ring leap” position (where your hands touch your back foot). There are thousands of things I will be able to do with the SoloStrength. Thousands? Yes, because I will use other accessories like a my exercise ball, bosuball, rings (gymnastic like rings), the PerfectPullup swivel handles, stretching bands, etc. to do some extreme stretching and exercises But, the most important reason I must own a SoloStrength is for my children, Daniel (6 years old), and Dana (4 years old). Because I can adjust the height to fit their size, they too will be able to do everything that I can do with SoloStrength (with my help of course for some things).

The PerfectPullup is nice, but you have to permanently attach it to your doorway – which is not very pretty - and if your doorway is not perfectly square (which the majority are not) then it can damage your door when you swing it down. The other thing is you have to put is so high that when you do a pullup your head goes above the top of the door – it’s just not pleasant having to worry about hitting your face on the door. You can swing the bar down into a lower position but it does not lock into place so it’s like a trapeze. You cannot do as many exercises on a swinging bar. This is the same reason I cannot use the horizontal bar on my Functional Cross Trainer for many exercises – it swings, rotates (rolls), and moves left and right.

The Iron Gym is great because you can remove it from your doorway and you don’t hit your face on the door when you do a pullup. However, you cannot close your door with it installed, and when you take it down, make sure you have a convenient place to put it so you and your family don’t trip over it.

Investing in a SoloStrength is investing not only in my health but my children’s health!!
