We take home a cash prize of $2,500 as a result of winning 2nd in our category. This competition has both student and alumni ventures apply, where only 3 are chosen as finalists to compete live on campus for the prizes.
After only 1 year using our product, two our our athletes have achieved their first wins in major competition. What did they attribute to the success? Better strength training that helped them build the explosive power needed to beat the best, powered by FitLift!
