A great go anywhere gym that is
By vanesa hayden on Reviewed in the United States on August 25, 2018
I do like this product but I think there is fake reviews on here. I gave a great review, full stars, but I said it doesn’t replace a gym for a few reasons which I explained — then the next review following states unequivocally it replaces a gym. So yeah, some of these reviews I think are faked. Also I noticed that a few reviews were from a kickstarter so yeah ur not gonna get the service of someone who funded them, lol. So yeah it’s a good product for sure but I’m kinda getting a shady feeling. They must have folks on here to give reviews for ‘em. Lol. I’m just thinking that’s true. Also I note that for a really fit person this might be ok to maintain fitness on a trip or something it really won’t replace a home gym or membership. Just looking for something easy to throw in the trunk or boot depending on where ur from — yes This is good to do that with.i move a lot so this is good for me. But there is no real cardio component. Yes u can incorporate some cardio but not enough to replace a home gym or gym membership or some other cardi. And let’s face it most folks like a cardio machine, easy on the joints, etc. good for what it is but it does not replace a gym. So below is my original review. And I Am a real person. I just received my BodyBoss today and I’ve done my first workout with it. I am pretty impressed. i loved the color — i got pink. I’m really happy with my purchase so far. I thought it was a little pricey and I was concerned that I might be too short to use this product. I’m 4ft 9 inches tall. But that’s not the case — I get plenty of resistance from the bands and there is plenty of room for challenging workouts in the future by adding bands and weaving the bands through different number settings to get more resistance. Im Starting off slow to get used to working with bands which I’ve never done before. As I get better with the product I feel like I will have plenty of room to grow. Now if ur really in shape I can see where this wouldn’t be as much of a challenge as you might like or need. But if ur just looking for it to travel with u to get in some quick workouts when u have time this would probably work for u too. Easy and convenient to use. Portable, small and can really go anywhere. Sturdy and very well made. I really like the squat bar. Wish the foam on it was better but it’s decently made. I was looking at another similar bar that was a lot cheaper and probably better made overall but it didn’t have all the added bands, limb straps, handle bars, the base and all of video instructions. Which is why in the end I choose the BodyBoss. I do think it’s a bit overpriced but I think if they can continue to beef up the online portion that would be really worth it. They even have live stream classes u can sign up for. So that part actually seems very interesting to me and I would love to try those out. Now does this actually replace a gym membership or an in home gym? No I actually don’t think it does. For some I’m sure it will because it’s more convenient to do it in ur home than it is to try and make it to the gym every day or even a few times a week. Enough of those days of skipping the gym and then the gym membership doesn’t actually make sense anymore. So this is a good alternative in some ways. Cheaper and more convenient than a gym membership. And doesn’t take up all the space that other at home gym equipment does. I think this is a good product. With the online vids to aid getting started. And the product is advertised accurately — no surprises. The quality of the pieces are good and are made well and seem very durable. I’m hoping this lasts a long time for me. So in the end I gave full stars because I feel like this is a good system to have that I can use no matter where I move to, use it indoors or out and has a super small footprint.

Resistant Band Broke - Poor Quality & Poor Customer Service
By WS on Reviewed in the United States on March 15, 2021
I bought this item March 2020. I barely used it because I didn't find the fold up vectorfit platform very helpful especially when putting the bands through the metal anchors to make the resistance tougher. The movement just didn't feel smooth. So I ended up not using the platform and just used the resistance bands with the bar by attaching the bands to a door with the door anchor. As I said, I did not use it a lot, but a couple of months ago as I was using it, one band broke from the carabiner (see attached picture) and almost sent me flying backwards. Customer service was terrible to deal with. They answered me the first time via email and then decided to ignore numerous emails until I actually had to get stern and let them know I would take legal action if they continued to ignore me. They told me since my resistance band was still under warranty, they would replace the broken one with 2 new bands but in a different color. I was still a little upset at the fact that I could have seriously injured myself, so I asked as a courtesy for the risk of injury and trouble I went through if they could send me another extra band so at least I could still use the one good band I originally had ensuring that at least it wouldn't go to waste. Their response was I would have to buy another entire pair even if I was just requesting one extra band. I am not going to spend $35 on another set of bands to risk it breaking on me again. And good luck if it breaks after the warranty period...with the poor customer service I received, I would not be surprised if they would not even replace a broken band 1 day after the 1 year warranty period. As a courtesy, customer service should have provided me with an extra band to make up for the fact that, #1 I could have seriously injured myself when the band and carabiner broke off causing potential liability for them, and #2 they ignored several of my emails which was very rude and only frustrated me more. Overall, I am very dissatisfied and wish I never spent $190 on essentially a bar and 2 cheap resistance bands that may break apart from the carabiner and cause seriously injury. And then have to deal with poor customer service only by email only to have them ignore you until you're forced to threaten legal action.
