A Smart Mirror for Lifters? The Forme Lift Offers 200 Pounds of Total Resistance
Thursday Mar 30, 2023
Thursday Mar 30, 2023
Trent Ward is the founder and CEO of Forme (https://formelife.com/), the producer of two smart mirrors — Forme Studio and Forme Lift — that compete with brands like Mirror and Tonal.
What makes Forme different? For starters, aesthetics were as important as functionality. (Seriously, how many fitness mirrors do you see get covered in magazines about architecture?)
Also, the Forme hardware is 68 inches, which is larger than both Mirror and Tonal. Plus, it features a 4K screen that's useful if you opt in to the live coaching feature.
If you spring for the Lift ($5,995), you'll have access to 200 pounds of total resistance. If you want the Studio, you'll spend about $2,500. So yeah, it's pricey.
See what Ward says sets his product apart from other smart mirrors and what early mistakes he made as CEO.
