"Sick of crunches and situps? So were World Champion wrestlers Jay Reso & Adam Copeland when they came up with the PurePlank board and app. The two pros put their heads together to think of the best way to keep fit while living their best life out of the ring. Planking provides a total core workout in as little as 3 minutes per day, preparing you for peak athleticism, boosting mood, and building muscle seamlessly. Crunches, situps, and traditional core exercise only work out abdominal muscles. While there is nothing wrong with these workouts, they aren’t the most exciting or efficient core routines you can mix into your daily routine. When it comes to a full-core training routine, nothing beats planks. PurePlank helps anyone write their core comeback story using the power of planking. Customize Your Planking Routine PurePlank is made for everyone. Started by two men in their 40s, PurePlank was their vision for an adaptable workout routine made to work for a wide range of users – from someone who has never worked out before to someone who has made working out an integral part of their lives. The PurePlank app features customizable plank exercise routines that meet you in your workout journey. Work Up To New Goals Goals propel us in our fitness journeys when we tire of the same exercises. The PurePlank interactive app helps you meet new goals as your body and mind grow stronger. Professional plankers help you set goals and work through them, while the PurePlank board allows you to work up your time, endurance, and more. Improve Mental & Physical Health A good core training routine is key to a healthy lifestyle. Core body muscles provide body stability, improve balance, and propel health goals. Planking provides all the benefits of traditional core training exercises (like crunches and situps) with the added benefit of a mental health boost. Get your endorphins flowing and your muscles pumped with the help of PurePlank. Never Get Bored It’s easy to get bored with traditional workouts. You stagnate and grow tired of doing the same movements repeatedly without a change in routine. The PurePlank companion app utilizes professionals to make your workout exciting, personal, and, most importantly – fun. Engage your core strength in just 3 minutes per day, and never get bored doing it. The PurePlank app utilizes bodyweight, proper planking technique, engaging workout routines, and the PurePlank board to allow anyone to feel their best and train their core from home."

Measure every run on your dog's treadmill. Firepaw reads a Bluetooth speed sensor on the treadmill's roller and shows your dog's speed and distance live, and whether they're walking, trotting or running. Then it keeps the whole story: history, progress, goals and personal bests. Made for owners, trainers, canine rehab professionals and competition organizers who work dogs on slatmills and carpet mills. LIVE SESSIONS • Live speed, distance and time, and whether your dog is walking, trotting or running • The clock starts on your dog's first step, not while you're still getting them on the belt • Keeps recording when you switch apps or lock the screen • Run several dogs at once, each on its own treadmill with its own sensor INSIGHTS AFTER EVERY RUN • A plain-language summary: how long your dog walked, trotted and ran, and how often they stopped • Speed chart with walk, trot and run zones and the session average • Longest stretch, best 60 seconds, and estimated energy burned once you've added your dog's weight PROGRESS OVER TIME • Every session, day by day • Weekly distance chart, trends and training streaks • Personal bests: longest distance, longest session, fastest minute, biggest week • Weekly distance goals with a progress ring DOG PROFILES • Breed, age, fitness level, health notes and training goals • Weight tracked over time on a simple chart SHARE WITH YOUR TEAM • Give co-owners, trainers or vets access to a dog, each at the level they need • Let access expire on a date, or keep older sessions private • Hand a dog's profile over to its owner with a one-time code COMPETITIONS • Timed runs that start on the dog's first step and stop themselves • Rank dogs by distance or top speed; each dog's best run counts • Enter any dog by name: competitors don't need the app • Continue a competition on another phone, and share or save the results as a PDF WORKS ANYWHERE • No signal at the barn or the venue? Everything is saved on your phone and uploads when you're back online • Kilometers or miles, kilograms or pounds • No ads and no third-party analytics WHAT YOU NEED • A dog treadmill: a slatmill or carpet mill • A standard Bluetooth cycling speed sensor on the treadmill's roller, set to speed mode.
