Slym Gym:Portable Exercising Equipment For Truck Drivers

Fitness is for everyone, they say! So, why is there a bias when we talk about fitness for people who cannot hit the gym due to professional reasons (let’s not talk about physical ailments, here)? Among the unfortunate ones who miss out are the truckers, who spend a majority of their time on road. A simple solution of course would be to incorporate a gym inside the truck, but for reasons of feasibility and portability, this has never materialized. In comes the ‘Slym Gym’ – a portable exercising device that enables truck drivers to maintain a fitness regime without having to visit a regular athletic club. The device can be dismantled and assembled without any hassles, and occupies minimal space in its dismantled form. Developed by Bill Fann, an inventor who recognized the necessity for such a product, the Slym Gym consists of a metal frame and spring resistant pulleys.

The Slym Gym also incorporates mounting hardware and locking devices to fasten the device to bunkers in a truck. The device will be available in various sizes to suit the bunks and truck cabs. Typically, when you are not working out, the device will be placed below the mattress. Whenever drivers feel the need to exercise, they can unlock the device and use the resistant pulleys, which act as replacements for regular weights, for both aerobic and anaerobic exercises. The pulleys can also be adjusted for different weight resistances and tension with the help of a cable spool. The four arms of the Slym Gym offer a variety of exercising options. A strap at the foot of the device allows truckers to work on their abs, while the pulleys offer resistance options for your arms and feet.
