Hey, Bosses!
Today I wanted to share some fun facts about resistance training. We know you care about your health, and we love being a part of that journey! We received feedback that more of you received your BodyBoss 2.0 last week - Yay!
So, we all know that resistance training is moving your muscles against some sort of opposing force. There are SO many benefits of resistance training! Here’s a fun list we found from Everyday Health of 7 reasons to add strength training to your total body workout routine.*
- It makes you stronger and fitter. (Hello!)
- It helps you develop better body mechanics.
- It plays a role in disease prevention!
- It boosts energy levels and improves your mood.
- It translates into more calories burned!
- It helps keep the weight off for good!
- It protects bone health and muscle mass.
Luckily, you’ve discovered the BodyBoss 2.0. You don’t need to leave home or purchase bulky, heavy equipment to get in your recommended amount of strength training each week. You already have the best home gym on the market today!
Did you tune in with us on Saturday? Do you want - and need - some of the benefits mentioned above? Well, get moving!
No excuses, bosses, we got this! Stay tuned for some exciting news in the next few weeks!

Our team has made a lot of great progress in the last few weeks! Today, I wanted to start with a letter from our new CEO.
Hey Bosses,
I am writing to introduce myself. My name is Mike Bornhorst, and I am the new CEO of BodyBoss. Prior to BodyBoss, I was a CEO of a business that sold hundreds of millions of dollars in merchandise online. I joined Ross and the team because I saw the passion from him and this amazing community, and I see so much potential with the wonderful product we are offering in the BodyBoss 2.0. I know I can help the company as it grows.
We have had amazing success over the last 8 months, and frankly, were not prepared for the volume of orders. So, to those of you who are still waiting for your product, I sincerely apologize. Amazingly, we sold over 6,000 units in 60 countries, but unfortunately, got behind on the manufacturing and logistics resources it takes to deliver those 6,000 gyms. We are fast learners, are investing quickly, and expect to have almost all of the approximately 500 orders older than 60 days resolved in the 2 to 4 weeks. Those without outstanding orders were sent this letter by email.
Today, our manufacturing partner can produce over 10 times the volume we experienced over the last 8 months, and we are limiting for the short term the countries we will be selling in until we can hire the resources and the expertise to support the logistics for delivery in all countries. Do not worry, no matter where you are we are working hard to get you your order. Thanks so much for supporting us and helping us get started on our mission!
Our mission is to build an exceptional brand that brings affordable, safe and high quality resistance training products and training programs to people and fitness experts worldwide. I can’t wait to share with you the plans we have on the service side with our virtual workouts. Stay tuned!
Please reach out to us at [email protected] if you have any questions. Regards,
Mike Bornhorst
We are very excited to have Mike on board and hope that you are too! Thanks, Mike!
Here's another cool project...
We have created a fidget toy that is disguised as a pen. The first of its kind with 7 different features to let you fidget discretely. You can take the Fidgi Pen anywhere without anyone knowing you are fidgeting. Join the Fidgi craze!

Wiivv Custom Fit Sandals give you comfort and support like no mass-produced sandal ever has. You can literally wear them all day long, so your feet can carry you wherever you need to go. When you upload a picture of your feet to the Wiivv app, the software maps over 200 data points on each foot to pinpoint the exact width, length and arch of your unique foot. Within 5 seconds, the app creates 3D models of your premium arch support, which are then 3D printed and turned into custom-fit sandals. Grab them while they last.

Why You Should Tune in to LIVE Workouts
We’ve added a second LIVE workout as a benefit to our BodyBoss community, and we hope that you’ll consider tuning in! Saturday’s workout was awesome, and to be honest, I’m still sore! The next workout is tomorrow, Tuesday, April 4th at 6 pm EST. You can tune in here.
Here are a few reasons we think you should tune in LIVE.
1. Community - We know that the key to long-lasting, lifetime fitness is the community that you surround yourself with! Sharing your success and struggle with a group of people here to encourage you to keep on pushing through plateaus makes all the difference.
2. Knowledge - Exercise can be intimidating. The easiest way to learn how to use your BodyBoss to gain strength is by workout along with an expert! Kristi offers amazing tips throughout the entire workout on the most effective positioning of your resistance bands, foot placement, and much more. Don’t miss this invaluable information.
3. Inspiration - After tuning into a live workout, you’ll be so much more prepared to workout on your BodyBoss 2.0 solo! Get inspired by new moves and new challenges to keep your new habits going strong. Saturday’s workout included back squats, squat presses, back lunges, ab twists, super sets of kick backs and side kicks, and more!
If you missed Saturday’s LIVE workout, you might still have time. We have community all over the world, so keep in mind, if 6 PM EST just doesn’t fit into your schedule, you have 48 hours from the live video to watch the replay. If you have questions or need support, our team is ready to help. Leave a comment below or email us at [email protected].
See you tomorrow!
Here's another project we think you'll like!
If you need something to occupy your kids while working out with the BodyBoss, grab a Pixlplay camera! We love this campaign because it makes use of your old phone while getting your kids creative and active through photography. There's a limited time left so check out Pixlplay by Pixltoys!
