The Trainer+

The monthly membership fee activates a Trainer+ and All Access Membership, unlocking the entire current range of features and benefits, and all future new features.

Only one active membership is required for each Trainer+. This means that unlimited additional users can work out on the activated hardware using the App with their own profile.

The Trainer+ will work without a membership and still give you a better workout than all the dumbbells, kettlebells and cable machines in the world (and those you can’t fit under your bed!). You will feel the adaptive weight and eccentric overloading, however, your workouts will all be self-directed.

It’s the All Access Membership that gives you access to all class and form content, custom workout creation, goal-oriented programs, data tracking and performance insights, leaderboard activity, team building, games and more.

If you aren’t satisfied with your Vitruvian purchase, within 30 days of delivery to advise us that you want to return it. You will need to have had an onboarding session and you will need to take care of the shipping cost, but we can help you organize it. You will also need to have kept the entire original packaging and ensure that the product is in original as-new condition.

Yes, you can! Only one active All Access Membership is required to activate a Trainer+. For as long as the monthly membership is paid, you can have as many members using the hardware as you like for no additional cost. All they need is the Vitruvian App on their own device, with their own profile.

Anyone can download the Vitruvian App for free. In order to work out and access the full range of features, you just need to connect to an activated Trainer+.

A Trainer+ is activated by a monthly membership that is normally paid by the owner, but can be taken care of by anyone. Only one All Access Membership is required per machine. It can have as many users as you like and they simply access all the features via the Vitruvian App on their device, with their own profile, for no cost.

The All Access Membership is USD$39, AUD$49, £29, €34 or equivalent to USD$39 in your country. Visit the Shop page for more information or contact us via support@vitruvianform.com or the chat box at the bottom of your screen.

  • Weight: The machine weighs around 30kg / 65lb but comes with two wheels and a handle for easy transport and moving around the house.
  • Size: It is 117 cm x 52 x 12 cm, 44 x 20 x 5 inch 
  • Maximum length of the ropes: 10Ft / 3m

The weight limit per handle is currently set at:

  • Original V-Form: ~90 kgs – for 20 seconds
  • Trainer+: ~100kgs

It is a thermal load constraint. 90kgs/100kgs feels heavier than static weight as you have no momentum to get through rough sections in the range of motion.

The machine is designed to be able to hold a 330lb (150kg) human on it.

Yes the platform requires power. However, it works with every standard power plug. 

It requires 1000 Watts at its absolute max, usually a lot less.

We are sure you’re going to love your Trainer+. We are so sure, we’ll offer you a full refund for 30 days from date of delivery. If you are not satisfied, we will accept the return but will require you to pay the return shipping, and the Trainer+ must be in virtually new condition and in original packaging. You can see our Return Policy here.

Vitruvian Form comes with a limited parts and labor warranty. Labor is covered for one year. Other electronics, and wear items are covered for two years. The frame and other mechanical parts are covered for three years. Warranties are not transferable. You can see our Warranty here. 

It shouldn’t require regular maintenance, as the electro-mechanical components are not particularly complicated, think of it as a washing machine or other consumer electronics device.

We would expect this to last for a long time, the components are robust and we are using an experienced contract manufacturer of other premium exercise equipment, and so are confident in the quality. Should it break, we would either send a repair person to fix it (like you would a washing machine) or have it replaced, should it not be fixable.

We will set up agreements with networks of repair people, similar to how you would get a washing machine fixed should it break. The components are robust and aren’t too complicated, and shouldn’t break, and should be easy to repair if they do.

In any case, Trainer+ comes with a limited parts and labor warranty. Labor is covered for one year. Other electronics, and wear items are covered for two years. The frame and other mechanical parts are covered for three years. Warranties are not transferable.

Yes it can be, however it is designed to fit under your table / couch / bed to be stored easily. 

When storing on the side it is suggested to have something behind and infront of it so it can’t accidentally be knocked over.

It works straight out of the box – no installation required.

  • Bench/bar and other attachments allow you to do a range of bent over rows, reverse flys, etc
  • We are building a custom bench that allows for rows and pull downs – The mechanism is still in design, but the idea is to have a rod with a pulley on the end that can be extended from the head section of the bench and you can run one of the cables through it. So horizontal chest flies are unlikely but wood chops and seated rows should be fine. – we should be able to do most things Tonal can do. 
  • As a separate model to be released next year, we are also building individual cable spools that you can install anywhere – they are a bit further off, but you could bolt them into a wall or a cage. Or even replace the selectorized weight stack in any gym machine – that will be quite disruptive. They will work in conjunction with the platform.

The machine feels like it is alive and constantly pushes you, using algorithms which adapt the weight to your capabilities. There are a number of workout modes that allow you to focus on different advanced training modalities. It feels very different from fixed weight training. You can do:

  • Progressive overload
  • Velocity targeting (isokinetic)
  • Eccentric overload or eccentric only
  • Concentric only
  • Fixed weight
  • Adaptive weight

With the app, you can set how close to failure you want to change by tweaking the algorithm settings and it remembers your previous workouts and starts you at your last lifted weight for a particular movement. You can also see your progress over time on the App for each type of movement. It tracks max and average of the concentric & eccentric phase of the lift

You can set the weight with the App – but, the best experience is to let the device choose the weight for you. It adapts to how you are lifting about 40x per second using a high frequency algorithm  – it is a very cool experience :)

The device streams to a smart TV with chromecast or apple TV, but I just typically use my phone or tablet as I don’t really need to follow along. Classes however are better on a TV.

The weight is generated by motors and drives which run using quite sophisticated algorithms. Jon, the inventor used to be a high frequency trader,  so these algorithms are high speed at 40 hz, so adjusting the weight about 40 times per second based on your lifting. It is very smooth as humans can’t really notice more than 10-20 adjustments per second.

Yes, the weight is adaptive, variable. At the highest level, once the resistance is in software we can do a lot of things with it and have a whole suite of training algorithms in development. Our vision is to provide advanced level training through our classes – delivered in a simple way so that it is easy for the average person to access this type of training.

Eccentric overload: automatically increases the weight during the eccentric phase of motion and reduces it during the concentric phase, if you are struggling to lift the weight that you have, it recognises this and reduces the weight until you can get it up. This mode also increments you each rep until you start to struggle, then backs off to find your weight. If you want to go a bit lighter than you max, you can do this through pausing at the bottom of a range of motion – This is the main training algorithm in use today

The Trainer+ starts at 0lbs and can be adjusted upwards. This means when you are starting on 15kg, the next rep could be up to 20kg, 30lg etc. on each side. Once you have reached let’s say 100kg with an exercise. The Trainer+ will let you select any weight between 0-100kg to start with. It does not let you select 100kg if you have never lifted 100kg on the device before. This is a safety feature to ensure that nobody accidentally lifts more than they have ever done.

It does not film you and see what you are doing exactly. However, it knows when you are lifting too much / too little and adjusts everything accordingly. This helps you to keep correct form. Our tutorials and video content also helps you with performing exercises safely and correctly.

Our classes are all between 10 to 30 minutes but you can design your own workouts too!

It’s really up to you how long you want to train. However, given that you can overload your eccentric we discovered that you can get away with shorter workouts and the same muscle activation
