REP is proud of our brilliant, in–house, weightlifting engineering team – but sometimes we run across another inventor doing incredible things for the fitness industry, too.
These are our people. We want to support them.
That’s why we created the Inventor Series: an exclusive line of products invented by small, outstanding inventors from around the world.
We collaborate with the best of the best and then work closely alongside them to optimize their ideas, using our knowledge of the home gym market and our web of resources.
The goal is to simultaneously lift up other gym equipment inventors, while making their amazing products more accessible to more people.
It’s a win-win-win for all.
The first product in REP's Inventor Series is the REP ® x PÉPIN FAST Series Adjustable Dumbbell.
Stay tuned for more to come!
