Boxing, one of the most noble sports in existence (as long as it is celebrated according to the rules of the game of various international organizations), is one of the most popular on the planet. It may have lost some of its media prominence in the 70s, 80s and 90s in recent years, but it is still a widely practiced sport in thousands of gyms around us, as well as around the world. And it’s true that it’s a world that has hardly evolved in the way it is practiced, but technology is gradually offering other alternatives as well. This is the case with the device we are studying today. If you are a fan of this sport, it can be useful for you, no doubt.
We’re not just talking about an empty sack of gloves; because we can turn these into smart devices. We can choose to receive these products together or separately. For example, we can practice without a smart bag, by inserting two devices into the gloves that control our activity, so that we can monitor the movements we make with our gloves and therefore the ones we make with our fists. Or even combine it with this smart exercise bag, which can significantly improve the experience, because in this case we can improve the activity, making it more like a gym.
It is clear that with these devices we will not replace gym practices with our trainer, but it is a good way to stay fit if we are experienced boxers or if we want to practice to be fit. This bag has a fairly original design, totem-shaped, available in a variety of finishes to match your home, black, white, blue or light pink. We can comfortably carry two small devices that study our activity with gloves in a pouch, in the cleanest style of headphones.
These are loaded while we keep them in our wallet; They have a Bluetooth 5.0 connection and a USB C-type connector. The full battery provides continuous use for three hours. These are connected to our Android mobile or iPhone, and they analyze all our movements, which we can synchronize with different exercises. The bag can be easily put into combat mode, and when we stop using it, it can be put in storage mode and can be easily transported thanks to its rotating wheels. Therefore, we can be encouraged with the tracker devices that follow the movement of our gloves, and then get this smart bag to improve our workouts.
Logically, the former is much cheaper than the latter. With the acquisition of Boxx Track, our activity monitoring devices will cost us around 130 euros, plus shipping costs. They will be delivered in August 2022. Purchased with a smart bag, starting at € 2022, plus shipping costs, it costs to be delivered in August 2022. We can already buy them in their active campaign, Kickstarter.
Liteboxer, suitable in a pandemic
Because the gyms were closed due to Covid-19, many were left without the opportunity to train as usual and decided to use objects at home to replace the machines. But in a smart home you can have a virtual trainer to help you train, just like Liteboxer does, a boxing bag with a touch of technology.
Liteboxer is a platform that allows users to do full boxing training at home. Todd Dagres, president of the company, decided to create this device, realizing how difficult it was to train in this sport, without the elements that his gym gave him.
"I could only train once a week with a coach. So I tried to repeat the training at home and bought a heavy bag. It was a sad experience for me. It was just boring, tiring and unpleasant. The bag hangs there and does nothing for you; so , you feel guilty for beating him up, "Dagres said.
