Description

Patent-protected athletic performance and speed training equipment brand, founded in 2013 and operated since by its two owners. The company designs its product, imports it from a long-standing overseas manufacturer, and sells direct through its own website to professional sports organizations, NCAA Division I athletic departments, United States service academies, private training facilities, and individual coaches and trainers. The customer base spans professional football, baseball, and soccer, major-conference college athletic departments, and international buyers including a UK catalog reseller that places recurring bulk orders. It is exceptionally diversified: no single customer represents more than roughly one percent of cumulative lifetime sales. The company does not discount for volume. Professional teams pay list price. Lifetime revenue is approximately $8.6 million across roughly 3,500 units shipped, and 2023, 2024, and 2025 each set a new company sales record. The technical advantage is a concentric-only resistance mechanism protected by a U.S. utility patent with roughly five and a half to six years of remaining term. Resistance decreases slightly as the athlete accelerates, so the device does not alter natural running form. That is the opposite of elastic band trainers, which increase resistance with distance from the anchor and progressively distort stride. Because the device pulls in one direction only and stops the moment the athlete stops, injury risk is materially lower. There has never been a reported injury claim in more than a decade in the field. Economics are strong and improving. Gross margin ran 70.9% in 2024, 72.5% in 2025, and 76.3% year to date through July 2026, on a product priced at roughly four to five times landed cost. Recast owner earnings were approximately $595,000 in 2024, $630,000 in 2025, and $705,000 on a trailing twelve month basis, a net margin near 60% on a two-owner operating model. The company carries no debt. Operations are simple and highly transferable. Product arrives by container from a single overseas manufacturer, a relationship held for the entire life of the business with no missed or short shipment and only one modest cost increase across 13 to 14 years. Confirmed, paid online orders ship from inventory within a day or two. There is no proprietary system beyond a standard credit card processor, and ownership estimates a new operator could competently run roughly 95% of the business within one week. The clearest opportunity is that all of this was achieved with no sales function. Ownership has never employed a salesperson, a marketing hire, or a CRM. Growth has been almost entirely word of mouth, driven by product performance and by strength coaches who reorder when they move to a new program. Coaching turnover, a headwind for most vendors, functions here as a built-in reorder mechanism. Paid marketing has run at roughly 6% to 10% of revenue on a single narrow channel. Unscaled levers already in motion: a recently launched Amazon channel producing unprompted daily sales, recurring self-initiated bulk orders from an established catalog dealer, prior retail placement with a major fitness retailer, documented unsolicited demand from adjacent sports, and long-standing international relationships never cultivated. Asking price is for the business. Inventory of approximately $367,800 is purchased at close in addition to the asking price. Facility is a leased warehouse of 1,500 to 2,000 square feet; the business is fully portable. Pre-qualified for SBA 7(a). Ownership will transition for a year or more and is open to retaining a minority stake. A signed non-disclosure agreement and buyer qualification are required. All figures are unaudited and subject to verification. I

Facilities & Assets

Single leased facility in San Antonio requiring roughly 1,500 to 2,000 square feet of warehouse space, with the ability to operate in as little as 600 square feet using vertical racking. Rent is $1,500 per month. Ownership will negotiate an arm's length lease of any term with a buyer who wants to stay, and has confirmed the business is fully portable and can be operated from any comparable warehouse. Real property is owned separately by the principals and isn't included in this transaction. Equipment is minimal: a forklift, pallet jack and standard pallet banding equipment, combined value approximately $5,000, all included. There is no specialized or proprietary equipment beyond a standard credit card processing platform. Inventory of approximately $367,800 as of August 2026 is purchased at close in addition to the asking price, consisting of 456 units on hand or in transit at a landed cost of $757 per unit, roughly $22,000 of accessory inventory, and pallets and banding supplies.

Support & Training

Ownership is open to a transition of a year or more, and has expressed informal openness to retaining a minority stake and continuing to help build the business alongside a new majority owner rather than a full and immediate exit. The business is unusually simple to hand over. Ownership estimates a new operator could be trained to competently run roughly 95% of the business within one week. Transition covers the manufacturer relationship and reorder cycle, freight and container logistics, the online order and fulfillment workflow, warranty and service handling, and the customer and coach relationships that drive repeat orders. Warranty support is light. Roughly one unit in one hundred requires a repair over its lifetime, typical service volume is three to four calls a month, and most are resolved by walking a customer through a battery replacement. The company maintains an instructional video library that lets customers self diagnose and repair common issues without returning the pro

Market & Competition

The competitive set is mostly elastic resistance bands, which increase resistance as the athlete moves away from the anchor and progressively shorten and distort stride. Coaches who switch describe the bands as compromising running form, and some report wrist and soft tissue injuries from snapback. VertiMax is the largest band-based competitor, with strong marketing and distribution and an estimated ten times this company's volume; it previously approached ownership about an acquisition. Torque Fitness sells a comparably priced resistance sled that is not a dedicated sprint and acceleration device. 1080 Motion sells a motorized system around $20,000 that is adjacent rather than a substitute. The most useful market signal is that professional strength coaches who adopt this product consistently report having used no resistance device at all beforehand, having judged bands too risky for high-value athletes. The business converts non-users into first-time buyers rather than displacing a

Growth Opportunities

Build a formal sales function. The business passed $1.1 million with no dedicated salesperson. A properly trained hire or small outbound team targeting the many college and professional programs never reached is the single largest untapped lever. Invest in marketing. Advertising runs 6% to 10% of revenue, concentrated on paid social, with no marketing hire, no CRM, and no formal digital strategy. The company has not attended its core industry trade shows in two to three years. Expand beyond football. Sales focus has been almost entirely football strength coaches, despite documented unsolicited demand from adjacent sports, including a prior custom build for an NHL club and multiple current baseball and soccer customers. Scale Amazon. The channel launched within the past year and produces unprompted daily sales with no listing optimization or advertising behind it. Formalize wholesale and retail. Recurring self-initiated bulk orders from an established dealer and a prior major-retail
