Hey IndieGoGo backers,
Hope you had a great week this week! My name is Ross I am a co-founder here at BodyBoss (RhinoBoss is the parent company - but will tell you the meaning behind that in a later update). I wanted to come on and let everyone know first off -- how thankful we are of all of you. You literally impact our small team of 8 more than you realize, we thank you for that.
At BodyBoss I take the role of product develop and lead on product market fit. I popped on here, because I am so inspired because of what we have completed in development because of this it's so important you all keep checking in on these updates and staying in the loop because there are going to be rapid upgrades to our training virtual website and we have physical add-ons that everyone was asking to have retrofit to your BodyBoss 2.0: yes we found a way to make your BodyBoss 2.0 smart!!
We found a way to track how much you did while lifting with the BodyBoss 2.0 bands and we are even making the app. fun with challenges you can push yourself on, an in app scoreboard and more! We know it's easy to workout when you can achieve something and achieve something!
To all nearly 6,000 Indiegogo Backers..
we have some big news coming in the coming week(s)!
Your BodyBoss journey is about to get a whole lot more revolutionary!
Because of the bluetooth capability to loop from your BodyBoss 2.0
Here's a little sneak peak of what's coming...
Yes, your experience is about to get really fun!
We will continue to share screens and updates.. this month it's happening!
You made a great choice in backing BodyBoss.
As you know, last year we set out to revolutionize portable fitness..
We did this with one mission in mind: to bring the gym to you and give you something you would actually use.
We worked years to make the BodyBoss 2.0 special. Our goal was to literally find a way to make something as simple as possible, but take large equipment and combine them into one so it is your own personal portable gym.
With the app coming out we have been working hard each day on a variety of things like teaching exercises, sharing workout videos and ultimately making sure each person gets set up with your workout dashboard on Club BodyBoss Site. Go set that up if you haven't, the site won't be perfect but we will use email to send you workouts to continue to make it convenient on you.
Make sure you stay connected we have two technology teams working each day, our at home training videos are found and will be released more and more on our club bodyboss site and eventually the bodyboss 2.0 workout data will integrate straight into your profile from our smart devices.
We will keep in touch through this update channel at least once a week, maybe twice.
Here are some recent wins and updates:
-
Club BodyBoss Update (Community Training Site Formerly Known as BodyBoss.tv is going through some major overhauls & we will continue to update you on progress through these updates- we are open to developing features the community wants, it is imperative we use it) right now we have your user dashboard, workout videos on it, bodyboss tv (live trainers at least 3 times a week if you want scheduled workouts), classes, private trainer.
-
BodyBoss Brand & Next Launch - we have a huge announcement coming, we had another clone try to compete with market share on the BodyBoss brand, but we have a new announcement that will be even bigger impact on the larger vision of looping in as many people into their fitness journey as possible: bringing the gym to them. Keep an eye out for upcoming style guide, legal trademark wins and more!

Indiegogo backers,
A few members of our team had so much fun in San Francisco at Indiegogo’s Headquarters where we were welcomed by our very hands-on account managers with Indiegogo who have been with us since our first launch in 2016. We began with a morning meeting regarding our new product innovations and future plans. Our team went to Indiegogo’s “Startup Bootcamp” where we learned about basics of crowdfunding, retail, branding, shipping and fulfillment, and E-commerce. It was a lot of great information and useful reminders to recenter us to power through to deliver the best functioning products in the world to our loyal backers.
At the end of the Startup Bootcamp, there was a pitch competition contest. A few companies dropped out, so our team member, Jay, delivered an enthusiastic and energetic pitch to fellow entrepreneurs who were invited to his bootcamp. BodyBoss Portable Gym was awarded $5,000 from Indiegogo from Jay’s amazing sales pitch, which won us the competition.
We are so lucky to have such amazing partners who welcomed us from Cincinnati to San Francisco at Indiegogo. Ross (Founder and CEO), Jay (Head of Distributor Sales), and myself, Hannah (Marketing Communications Manager) had a great time networking and meeting professionals in the field. We were invited to go to the Golden State Warriors vs. the Minnesota Timberwolves basketball game on Friday night.
Indiegogo has been such a success for us. With the help of Indiegogo, we were able to raise $1.7+ million dollars to fund our product. If you are considering which platform to go through to fund your product, we highly recommend using Indiegogo’s platform to make your product idea a reality. The crowdfunding community is so welcoming, loyal, and tightly knit.

As you’re on a journey to a healthier lifestyle, looks and aesthetics can often be your main focus.
One of the best things about living a healthy lifestyle is the confidence you gain once you start focusing on how you feel, instead of how you look. Eventually, your body is bound to catch up with how you feel. Throughout the day, the processes inside you that keep you alive, well, and functioning, are amazing. Once you start listening to your body, fueling it with the food it needs, and really taking care of yourself, the results will show both physically and mentally.
“With confidence, you have won before you started.”
Exercise and diet will be the key for your best self! Your Bodyboss gives you the most convenient, effective workout to keep your heart healthy, blood pumping, and endorphins flowing while also letting you live life on your time. It has been scientifically proven that exercise directly correlates to an increase of one’s overall satisfaction with life and happiness. Before you workout, remember exercise is for your own health and happiness! It’s not about punishing your body, it’s about loving your body and realizing all it can do.
Here’s a few tips for focusing on feeling over looks:
- Ditch the comparison. It’s you vs you. Comparing yourself with an Instagram model, the buff guy at the gym, or ANYONE else, will do you no good. We all live different lives with different struggles, opportunities, and bodies. You cannot compare your journey to theirs because you are on a completely different journey- so it will be different. One person’s progress does not diminish your own. Did you know that right now, we’re offering free one-on-one assessments so you can meet with a Boss Trainer and discuss your personal fitness goals? This complementary session will set you on your path to achieve your goals your way. Schedule your one-on-one session with Dennis today.
- Find exercises you enjoy. Club BodyBoss offers a large range of classes so you can find one you enjoy most! Exercise doesn’t need to be a running session if you hate running- don’t force yourself when there are so many other options. With BodyBoss you can try circuit style training, focusing on one muscle group, cardio boxing and so many other options! Our trainers have a wide array of classes to fit your needs and fitness level. Utilize our Workout Library on ClubBodyBoss.com to find your favorite workout style. Let us know what you’d like to see more of in our workout videos. For more motivation- grab a friend! Follow this link to see what classes are available to book today.
- Don’t restrict foods, just moderate. Sure, some foods have better nutritional content than others, but there is not one food that can’t be incorporated into a healthy diet in moderation! Restriction often leads to wanting the forbidden foods more. You may successfully restrict yourself for a bit, but when you finally submit to the temptation, you’ll think you’re weak and can’t stick to your goals. Cut yourself some slack! Restricting, binging, restricting, binging- puts yourself in an unhealthy mindset and cycles that can take years to recover from. You are already on your way because you set goals for yourself! Life is too short not to treat yourself.
- Get moving. Take a walk during your work break, take the stairs instead of the elevator, stand at your desk when you’re working, or take a walk with a friend after work. You’ll find nature and sunshine will often lift your mood. Noticing details of our amazing world will make you both happier and more mindful. These are key to mentally feeling good. You can take your BodyBoss outside and find your workout groove, one with nature!
- Acknowledge your work. Completing that workout when you’re tired, doing an extra rep, not eating once you’re full, choosing fruits over chips because it makes you feel good - are all wins! Acknowledge your progress and be proud of yourself. You are on your way to reaching your goals one day at a time. We’re so happy you’ve chosen us to help you get ahead in your fitness journey.

Bosses! Meet Benjamin Winkelmann aka Benny - our newest Boss Trainer. Benny starts workout classes this week on Club BodyBoss focusing on high energy workouts, and is thrilled to get started with you on this shared fitness journey.
Question: Welcome to the Boss Community! I understand you’re a student?
Benny: Thank You, very psyched to be a part of the Boss Community and being on-boarded as a trainer. Yeah, I go to the University of Cincinnati for Communications and Digital Media.
Q: Very cool. How and when did you start prioritizing fitness?
Benny: I’ve been a competitive swimmer growing up. I picked up water polo at college and now play for the University of Cincinnati Men’s team. If you start training with me, you will see the excessive energy I have, so naturally I took to working out and fitness to channelize all of that.
Q: I can tell (I really could). How did you get introduced to BodyBoss?
Benny: My buddy Vedant works for BodyBoss as a Marketing intern. One day over the summer, we were hanging out and I knew he was working for BodyBoss, we got to talking and the next thing I know I had accepted and somehow very excited about joining BodyBoss as a trainer. He got me to use the platform right then and there and I realized this was not at all as easy as it looked. I remember sweating a lot because he put up a tough workout for me to follow and test and also asked me to narrate each movement I was doing on the platform.
A few weeks later, I met with the team and trained with Jay to be more familiar with BodyBoss and align myself with the goals and vision of the company. Now, here I am ready to start my first live session.
Q: That’s funny! Last, do you have a message for the Boss Community?
Benny: If you are looking for high energy workouts that hit several muscle groups with a guy on the screen who is ready to get you IN THE ZONE, then tune into my weekly workout classes starting Wednesday, October 10 at 1.30 pm. See you there, folks!
