Available at Strength Studio Kauai, ARX represents a cutting-edge shift in how we think about resistance training—an approach built around safety, optimization, and results.
Obsessed with results? Missing the big picture.
We’ve been indoctrinated as a culture, I think, to always be expecting tangible, external reward for effort. Our work should produce something, and that something should be photographable so that other people can see what we have or what we’ve become and feel jealous. We’re absolutely mired in that here on Kauai, where everyone seems to be in a competition for the best house, the biggest truck, the most Instagrammable hobbies, as if to say, “I’m living life better than you.”
The point of the Olympics is not to win, it’s to participate. The point of life is not to succeed, it’s to experience. And while I think it’s perfectly reasonable to expect results from your exercise, the visible results are far from the most important ones.

You need to do your research to determine whether or not this is truly a miracle product or just a fun new way to ingest snake oil.
