How It All Started
Started in the hills of the San Francisco Bay Area, the founder, Keith Davies, had an idea. He wanted to revolutionize the at-home gym experience and create a product that was functional, stylish and compact for everyday gym and yoga enthusiasts. Using his patent-pending technology, he found a way to create just that. The Red Strap Trainer or RST for short. This strap can do a lot, from converting dumbbells to kettlebells to functioning as a yoga or Pilates strap with adjustable loop sizes, and even serving as a yoga mat carrier all in one. With such a small size and weight, the RST is the perfect addition to any gym bag.
Meet Keith Davis
Founder/Yoga/Kickboxing/TRX Trainer/UK Certified Professional Trainer
He moved to the US from the UK in 1985. Unfortunately at age 35 he suffered over 17 broken bones, three umbilical hernias, a burst L5 lumbar in my spine and a cracked skull. He was lucky to live, and getting out of bed in the morning was hell. He said his morning routine needed a change. He needed to learn how to support his own healing. In his words.
"I knew couldn’t go on like that. Yoga was the only thing that offered any healing. I loved yoga and it helped relieve only some of my pains. After 20 years of yoga I realized it couldn’t, nor could anything else ‘exterior’ ever be able to completely heal me. Only I could do that."
That’s when he shifted focus and came up with his own inventions and tools to assist, and improve the healing of his body. Red Strap Trainer (initially the 'Strappy') and the Romo108 were born from this desire.
We are so glad to share these tools with you now!
After meeting Keith at the gym. Initially his generous smile and talkative nature got us talking about his inventions and expertise. I immediately saw the appeal of the Red Strap Trainer. I loved how simple, compact, and versatile it was. While working with Keith over the past two months I have seriously seen his honest belief in this invention. Not only that everyone he shows it to wants to support. The most noble quality in Keith is that he is sharing this because he genuinely want to help you. I wish each of you could experience the Keith that me and my fellow gym members have grown to love.
I want to end this with another quote from Keith
"No one can feel or understand what your body needs, only you can. But getting to that stretch/ache point can be difficult especially when it’s deep in your body and there hasn’t been many ways to get into it. With red strap and my other tools I’ve almost healed everything in me. Yes, there are still a few touchy places but I’m healed. And I want that for everyone, I want red strap to make it easier for you, for everyone to understand and explore their bodies , that they can go far deeper into themselves physically than they ever imagined, that their pain is real, it’s valid and should be respected but not ignored. I want you, all of you to have what I have now."
