@marcboscher the home kit is $499 and includes a newly designed stand-up bag (valued at $450), custom Gloves (the first machine washable gloves), custom quick wraps (to hold the sensor) and a 4' by 8' modular rubber mat (8mm thick) to reduce noise and help the bag stay in place.
You're seeing a massive rise in the area of boutique fitness studios and classes focused on boxing. They're great and a significant number of the coaches are highly trained, but it's not scalable in terms of getting it to the mainstream consumer.
The team at Hykso (which combines technical expertise and boxing prowess) has the answer with their trackers and FightCamp. It truly is the "Peloton of Boxing" and it'll be exciting to watch the product grow for individuals, gyms, and places in between!
Interesting. Is this for technical boxing or simply a fitness tracker for boxing?
Can I use this with traditional hand wraps and my own boxing gloves? I know that many boxers may already have their own preference of gloves and hand wraps. It looks like in photos that the tracker attaches to some custom wrap glove.
It would be really great to see the data and improve everything from boxing stance to striking technique to combinations.
@art_chang The Hykso sensors (we built a year ago) were created with the data driven boxer in mind and our first users were the US and Canadian Olympic boxing teams and so they're more suited towards medium to high level boxers.
This new product FightCamp is for all levels of boxing, from someone new to boxing to someone very experienced. The classes are taught by a range of instructors from the fitness industry to world kickboxing champions, so there is something for everyone!
And you can use them under any wraps, just as long as the sensors are facing the right way (rounded edge facing forward) and are just below the wrist. We are just putting out these new Quick Wraps with a custom pouch and so before then everyone was just using regular wraps!

Hey PH Community,
You might remember me from the launch of Hykso, the first Wearable Punch Trackers (launched last year). ***WELL I’M BACK*** and our small 6 person team have been hard at work building a brand new experience called FightCamp (and we just launched our iOS app!!!).
FightCamp is interactive fitness-boxing classes, led by the best trainers in the country, available on-demand. We fused the punch trackers data to a live screen where you can follow our fantastic instructors through a growing library of Boxing-HIIT classes (15-30-45 minute workouts), where all your punches are tracked and your output is measured and central to the experience.
To explain as briefly as possible what we are, FightCamp brings boxing-fitness to everyone, anywhere, anytime.
We are giving away the punch trackers for FREE to anyone that signs up (you just need to return them if you cancel) and we’re finalizing our FightCamp Home Kit which is our package for anyone who doesn’t have their boxing equipment yet, or who want to upgrade their boxing setup (which we hope will allow anyone to get in on the amazing workout you get from boxing). The FightCamp Home Kit consist of (what we consider) the best free-standing punching bag on the market (been testing tons of them the last few months and man are my knuckles getting sore 😄), custom gloves, custom quick wraps and a rubber workout mat.
This is a crazy new experience for us. Our team consists of 4 French Canadians, 1 American from Boston and 1 English Canadian (Me!), we moved to Southern California 2 years ago (from Montreal) and have been heads-down building Hykso and now FightCamp because we’ve always thought boxing and combat sports in general have been missing the key element of output data (it’s pretty hard to measure progress without it).
After satisfying some incredibly tough customers (with just the Hykso Punch Trackers) like the UFC Performance institute, Daniel Cormier and many other fighters, it was a really fun decision to move into actually providing the classes/workouts alongside the data so that we can make boxing workouts even more fun and engaging (seriously check out our instructors, they’re all amazing characters).
Hope you all get a chance to check out our app and our classes, ask me anything I would love to chat and hear all your feedback!

I used Hykso punch sensors and FightCamp....what a workout! The instructors are tough and great motivators. Can't wait to wake up every morning and do a 15 minute video before work. I leave the house feeling awake and strong and ready to fight through the busy work day! HIGHLY RECOMMEND
