YBell Fitness got Best in Test for Tech Category | Women's Running Award 2021
YBell Neo named Best in Test for Tech Category
LONDON – Oct. 27, 2021 – YBell Fitness has won a Women’s Running magazine award for its YBell® Neo as the Best in Test in the Tech category. The product was featured as part of the Essential Kit section of the June issue, in which the magazine’s editors and readers tested and rated a wide variety of shoes, apparel, and tech items for female runners.
Described by the reviewer as a “brilliant addition to your home gym,” the YBell Neo earned the Best in Test designation, defined as “brilliant performance from highly technical, stylish kit.”
According to the reviewer, “This is so much easier to use than standard dumbbells due to the design, the way you can change how you grip it, and the way the weight sits in your hand as you use it. The beauty of it is that you’ve got everything you need for a runner’s strength workout right in your hands.”
Created by veteran Australian fitness trainer Aaron “Az” Laurence, and professional industrial designer, Michael “Hop” Hoppe, the patented YBell is a 4-in-1 handheld training tool that facilitates kettlebell, dumbbell, dual-grip medicine ball, and push-up stand exercises for people of all abilities. The YBell Neo comes in weights from 4.5 kg to 12 kg; the new YBell Arc Series has weights from 1.1 to 3.4 kg, and the YBell Pro Series with heavier weights, ranging from 14 to 20 kg.
“Women’s Running recognizes the benefits of functional training for runners and how the YBell Neo best facilitates this,” said Mark Livingston, vice president, worldwide sales and marketing, YBell Fitness. “With terrific continuing growth in the U.K. and 52 other countries around the world, we are excited to continue supporting runners, exercisers, and the fitness industry with new, innovative offerings.”
Runners and fitness enthusiasts can take advantage of the YBell App for instruction, workouts, and the opportunity to connect with the larger YBell community. The company’s accredited fitness education program, with online workshops and courses for trainers and fitness enthusiasts, offers continuing education credits from the National Academy of Sports Medicine (NASM) and Fitness Australia. An accredited three-day master instructor course is also available.
“This is another proud accomplishment as more sectors within the sports, fitness, and leisure industries continue to recognize the YBell’s benefits,” said Elena Lapetra, director of Stronger Wellness, YBell Fitness’ exclusive distributor in the United Kingdom.
Among the growing recognition for the YBell Neo are the Women’s Health 2021 Fitness Award, the Red Dot Design Award 2020, the iF Design Award 2020 for Design Excellence, the International Design Excellence Award 2019, and others.
