Kansas City, MO – OYO Fitness has launched DoubleFlex, a total body portable gym, powered by SpiraFlex\u00ae technology developed for NASA, proven to provide similar benefits to weight training \u2013 without weights. SpiraFlex enables the DoubleFlex gym to be lightweight and portable, yet provide total body fitness at home, office or traveling. Patented DoubleFlex action provides smooth consistent resistance to opposing muscles groups during each DoubleFlex movement, helping build a balanced body more efficiently.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\u201cNASA was trying to figure out how to keep their astronauts in top shape in a weightless environment,\u201d said Paul Francis, CEO of OYO Fitness, LLC. A NASA commissioned study found SpiraFlex provided similar gains in strength and lean muscle compared to free-weights, which is the benchmark for strength training. It was mission critical to install SpiraFlex powered Resistive Exercise Device before the first crew arrived on the International Space Station.\u201d Francis is no stranger to the fitness industry, as he has partnered in the past with some of the top fitness brands, and has also licensed SpiraFlex to Nautilus, Inc. to power what many people consider the best home gym yet, the Bowflex.<\/p>\n

DoubleFlex feels like free-weight or cable machine resistance while weighing less than two pounds.<\/p>\n

Included with the DoubleFlex are a complete range of workouts and nutrition programs developed for any starting fitness level. Using the DoubleFlex 3 to 5 times per week and following nutrition guidelines, 15 participants lost an average of 17 pounds and 19 inches in just 10 weeks.
\n\u201cI founded OYO Fitness to build a company that provides effective, fun, fitness solutions that eliminate barriers to achieving and maintaining health,\u201d Francis continues. \u201cStudies show resistance training builds bone and muscle, burns fat and makes you feel better, look younger and live longer. Our OYO team strives to create innovative products you can get fit with OYO (On Your Own), that help you meet and beat life\u2019s challenges!\u201d<\/p>\n

The DoubleFlex sells for $129.99, and is available at www.OYOFitness.com<\/a>.<\/p>\n
