Hi Everyone,

Yesterday was an overwhelming day! We can't express how amazing it is to know that over 500  backers from all around the world came together to bring our dream to life!

We want to thank you all for backing our project and we will work hard to bring this product to you on time. We will keep you updated on our progress.

We have opened our Backerkit pre-order store and you will be sent a survey in the coming weeks to confirm your order and postal address and add extra items if you wish. We hope to finalise the carry case and get it on Backerkit as an add-on as requested by many of our backers in the original survey.

The Strength Tracker Bands are a GO!!! All bands now upgraded.

Hi everyone,

Hope you are all well! We have finalised our new Strength Tracker Bands and are able to upgrade all previous orders to these bands for no additional cost. The bands are Layered Construction.  If you look closely at the picture on the left you will see the layers. The continuous layering process substantially increases the strength, elasticity, and durability of the band. We have received positive feedback both on and off Kickstarter on the design and function of the bands and many requests for these to be released as a stretch goal; however, we are releasing them now as we think they are a good thing and want them to be shared with our backers now rather than just after the campaign has ended. 

If anyone did not order bands, but would now like to add these bands to their current order; they are available as an add on for the same price as previously advertised. 

Band Stacking- What sizes can fit in the Pocket Dumbbell?

Hi everyone,

One of our backers has asked if the larger band fit in the Pocket Dumbbell.   All four band sizes do fit inside for stacking. As you can see, this is with two larger ones included also.

Fat Grips used in conjunction with the Pocket Dumbbell
almost 3 years ago – Sun, Jun 13, 2021 at 12:30:03 AM

One of our backers asked the following question: The Fat Gripz solution... how well does that work for making these a bit thicker? Could you do a live video showing someone using it and also showing us someone using it with Fat Gripz and demonstrating that it isn’t going to be a problem to install Fat Gripz on them, like, having them slip off over time or something like “when they get wet or after a bit of use it gets slippy and starts to wriggle on there”?


Answer: I have uploaded a video of a fat grip attaching to a Pocket Dumbbell which will give you the benefit of the anti-slip function so that the bands don't slip out and can be used at any angle.  It will also make it thicker for you. The grip on the Pocket Dumbbell keeps everything secure, whether using a fat grips or hands. We had a friend of ours who is tall and has large hands make the video for us as a guide. Please excuse his rubbish filming :)
