XBAR Resistance System – Interview with Inventor Damian Sanders
Why the XBAR? Interview with the Inventor
1. Why should I believe the XBAR is any different—or better—than all the other fitness tools out there?
The fitness industry is flooded with gimmicks and fads. New products claim to be revolutionary, but most fade away after a few months once people realize they’re just repackaged versions of old ideas. Very few pieces of equipment withstand the test of time.
Fitness professionals can usually spot functional design instantly, which is why the XBAR stands out. Thousands have been sold—many to trainers—and not one unhappy customer. The XBAR simply makes sense.
We didn’t reinvent the wheel; we redesigned it to do more. By adapting the tried-and-true curl bar and pairing it with resistance bands instead of weights, plus a door anchor and push-up docks, the XBAR brings together classic training elements in a compact, portable format. It’s as natural a match as peanut butter and jelly.
Other products may serve a purpose, but the XBAR is the most adaptable and functional workout tool we’ve seen. It’s intuitive, simple, and built to perform—proof that the best ideas are often the simplest.
2. Can the XBAR really deliver the results I’m after? Is it the “magic pill” for getting ripped?
The distinctive look and ergonomic design of the XBAR make it instantly inviting. The curl-bar shape fits your natural wrist position and feels right in your hands. We refined that familiar design and made training desirable again. The XBAR looks tough yet approachable—it feels like a challenge, not a chore.
With over 100 standard and adapted exercises, you’ll never run out of options. Even spontaneous, freestyle movement gets results fast. Follow our 20-minute XBAR workouts and your progress will take off.
*As with any fitness program, proper nutrition remains essential.
Fitness Fact: Consistent resistance training not only builds muscle but also boosts metabolism for up to 48 hours after a workout.
3. I can buy resistance bands for a fraction of the cost. What can I do with the XBAR that I can’t do with just bands?
You get what you pay for. Cheap handles and bands feel flimsy and end up forgotten. The XBAR, by contrast, feels premium—sleek, balanced, and ready to use. It’s your workout partner, not a gadget that collects dust. Like a sports car begging to be driven, the XBAR practically demands to be picked up.
The range of combined standing and ground exercises you can perform with the XBAR is unmatched. To replicate it, you’d need multiple separate tools: handles, a push-up bar, slider pads, and a door-anchor system. The XBAR unites all of that into one durable piece of equipment.
4. $150 for just the bar and bands? Why is it worth that much?
In a market full of cheap plastic gear, the XBAR’s build quality immediately stands out. When you open the box, you’ll see the detail in every component—the solid bar, soft rubber grips, and precision-machined swivel ends. Once you feel it, you know why this isn’t a $49 product.
We refused to compromise on materials or design. The XBAR team agreed early on: it would be exceptional. Every piece is crafted with precision—Apple-level quality in fitness form. Even the packaging reflects that care. It’s built to last and built to impress.
5. What’s the secret technology that makes the XBAR unique?
The proprietary advantage of the XBAR lies in its swivel ends. No other system has ever placed swivels on a real curl bar—or combined that feature with push-up functionality. It’s the only product of its kind in the world.
The XBAR began as a push-up bar concept. Then came the breakthrough: adding swivels, multiple resistance bands, and a door anchor to expand its versatility. That single innovation opened the door to more than 100 real gym-inspired exercises. It truly is a full gym in the palm of your hands.
