home fitness product which allows dialing in of resistance/length of elastic bands
This is a home fitness product designed/developed for SPORTLINE and sold under a variety of private label brands (Men's Health, Gold's Gym, etc). This product is designed so the user can adjust the length of the bands in order to increase the resistance or in order to execute a different exercise.
The mechanism was developed in conjunction with Bill Phelps at SPORTLINE, then beyond that, my part was to create a product design which implied "sport, fast, dynamic, etc" styling. I went with a shape which referenced an archer's bow being drawn into tension and then really played up the surface finishing in order to increase the perceived value.
