# Archery-Inspired Workout Tools 'Gorilla Bow' Offers an Intense Full-Body Workout By Joey Haar | Published 2017-01-17 | Lifestyle Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/gorilla-bow References: [get.gorillabow](http://get.gorillabow.com/) '[Gorilla Bow](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/gorilla-ultimate-preworkout)' is a versatile piece of workout equipment that takes advantage of the shape and dynamism of a bow and arrow to give its users a complete fitness regime. Invented by Rhode Island-based fitness company [Gorilla Fitness](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/gorilla-ultimate-pump-complex), the product combines a bow-like shape with modern [resistance bands](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/kensui) to offer several different workouts for people of all strength levels and fitness goals. Though the traditional bow was invented as a weapon, anyone who has fired arrows from a recurve bow for an extended period of time knows that it takes a significant amount of strength in ones arms, chest, and back. By removing the weaponry and turning that concept into a piece of workout equipment, the Gorilla Bow harnesses those same muscle groups -- as well as the legs and core through other specialty exercises. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 6.0/10 - Popularity: 81% | Activity: 92% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Lifestyle](https://www.trendhunter.com/lifestyle) > [Health](https://www.trendhunter.com/health) ## Key Themes ### What's Driving This Trend - **Bow-shape Fitness Equipment:** Innovative workout equipment designed with bow-like shapes presents body-focused workouts using resistance bands instead of traditional weights. - **Archery-inspired Training:** Archery has become an inspiration for unique and challenging workout regimens that involve arms, chest, back, and core muscles. - **Versatile Resistance Training:** Resistance training using equipment designed with bow and arrow shapes that are versatile and accommodating for different fitness levels and body types. ### Who This Affects Most - **Fitness Equipment:** Fitness equipment industry could produce innovative resistance training equipment that mimics bow shapes, targeting crossfit and bodybuilding enthusiasts. - **Sports and Fitness Apparel:** Specialized archery-inspired workout apparel, such as lightweight and flexible clothing, footwear and accessories that support a full range of muscle movement and versatility, are likely to disrupt the sports and fitness apparel industry. - **Gym and Fitness Centers:** Gym and fitness centers could offer archery-inspired workout classes in their repertoire by incorporating innovative workout equipment that mimics bow-like shapes and challenges different muscle groups. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [All-in-One Portable Gym Equipment](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/olympus-grip.md) - [Total Body Workout Devices](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/smart-portable-gym.md) - [Adjustable Workout Conditioning Systems](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/flyweight-home-gym.md) - [Workout Rope-Inspired Tools](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/zestup-zrope.md) - [Digital At-Home Archery Games](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/home-archery-game.md) - [Interactive Home Workout Systems](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/smart-home-fitness-system.md) - [Pocket-Sized Workout Systems](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/unitree-pump.md) - [All-in-One Doorway Gym Equipment](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/doorway-gym.md) - [Targeted Exercise Training Systems](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/glute-trainer.md)
