Roundbox Fitness Roundbox Fitness introduces an entirely new approach on how to train the human body. Our patent-pend

President & Founder of Roundbox Fitness, Curt Ligot, began his work in the fitness industry in 1999. His clientele has included adolescents, professionals, elite athletes, and senior citizens. Striving to deliver the best possible results, Curt collaborated with his clients’ physical therapists, chiropractors, and coaches and saw the glaring disconnect between fitness, athletics, and longevity. Al

though client workouts looked great on paper, Curt found they were not helping in a holistic and comprehensive manner. Focusing solely on strength and conditioning didn’t address the clients’ aches and pains, and strict attention to recovery and injuries wasn’t enough for fitness and athleticism to flourish. With this knowledge, Curt’s mission was to learn how to merge the world of longevity and intensity. After years of numerous workshops, certifications, and hands-on research, Curt came to the alarming conclusion that no single system could provide a solution for what his clientele desperately needed. Therefore, he realized that it would be necessary to create the system himself. After years of research and development, the Roundbox movement was born. Utilizing unique movements and proprietary equipment, this revolutionary system delivers elite fitness and athletics while strengthening and healing joints. Existing fitness equipment has limitations and traditional methods don’t capture the full potential of the human body’s movements. Therefore, Curt turned to Lasermach, Inc., the Pacific Northwest’s premier laser machine shop that is owned and operated by his family. The Ligot Family has been instrumental in the creation of Roundbox movement. The company’s innovative and resourceful approach has spawned all of Roundbox’s proprietary equipment. Utilizing raw materials and a state of the art method, Lasermach has developed a full arsenal of equipment that delivers the total Roundbox experience. Decades of experience combined with engineering prowess, they continue to produce cutting edge and industry-changing fitness and performance devices.

Really cool session today with pro squash player Salim.

I actually used to train him when he was in grade school, so it’s been awesome watching him develop over the years and now compete professionally.

Today we worked on one of our WaveBreaker “Runner” patterns.

We used an exaggerated split stance:

* front leg long and nearly straight
* back hip extended to lengthen and open up the hip flexors
* torso staying fluid while managing rotational force

From there we ran the WaveBreakers weight-side-down with the arms slightly bent and emphasized large backward ranges of motion.

One thing I really like about these patterns is that we DON’T go max effort.

We usually stay around 70% power so the athlete can:

* stay smooth
* pause and reorganize
* feel elastic deceleration
* absorb force instead of just creating it
* maintain balance and positional control while stretched into long ranges

For rotational sports like squash, it’s not just about producing force.

It’s:
how well you can decelerate,
reorganize,
and flow back into the next movement without stiffness or collapse.

That combination of mobility, elasticity, coordination, and force management is where this style of training gets really interesting.

Always fun exploring how different sports express movement and force.

Seattle-area athletes and coaches interested in this style of training, feel free to reach out.

POV: You’ve been stretching…

when you could’ve been STROTCHING. 😤

Why just stretch the chest…

when you can strengthen AND lengthen the muscles and tendons at the same time?

That’s the power of the Grappler.

Controlled resistance.
Deep ranges.
Active tension.
Pain-free mobility with strength built into the movement.

Certified Strotching Expert?
Yeah… that’s me. 😂

Most clients don’t actually need more stretching.
They need strength in the positions they’re weak in.

That’s the part most mobility programs completely miss.

See, if someone can get into a position but can’t control force there… their body will avoid using it under load.

That’s why people still feel “tight” even after stretching for months.

So with The Grappler, we approach mobility differently.

Instead of just hanging out in passive stretches, we create tension first.

Pulling apart on the handles then creates full body connection and stability in deep isometric positions.

Because when the nervous system feels stable, range of motion opens up naturally.

Then from there, we move.

Rotations.
Transitions.
Controlled movement through big ranges of motion while maintaining tension.

Now we’re not just improving flexibility.

We’re building usable mobility that clients can actually access during training, sports, and real life.

And the cool part?

Clients actually enjoy it because it feels athletic — not like rehab or yoga class.

If you want to see how we use this inside group classes and personal training sessions, comment “GRAPPLER” below and I’ll send it over.

Recovery work doesn’t have to be complicated to be effective.

My buddy Aaron spends a lot of time in the gym. Hitting his lifts working towards his goals.

and this is one of the short routines he uses with the Grappler to keep his body moving well between heavy sessions.

In about 40 seconds, he’s working:
• spinal rotation
• shoulder extension
• hip mobility
• trunk control

—all while opening things up through a deep lunge position.

What I like about this style of training is that it doesn’t just feel like stretching.

The Grappler lets you create tension, control, and movement at the same time — so you’re restoring motion while also building strength and awareness through the positions.

For lifters, that can be huge.

Less stiffness.
Better recovery.
Healthier joints.
And the ability to get back to the grind feeling ready to train instead of beat up.”

What happens when you combine
strength training 🤝 stretching?

You get…

STRONGTHENING 😂

Sounds ridiculous.
…but honestly the results are pretty awesome.

Instead of just passively stretching,
we use controlled resistance through big ranges of motion to help build:

✔️ Joint strength
✔️ Mobility
✔️ Stability
✔️ Control in stretched positions

This is one of the ways we use The Grappler.

You’re not just hanging out in a stretch…

You’re actively producing force THROUGH the range.

That changes the feeling completely.

More athletic.
More engaging.
And for a lot of people — it actually feels BETTER than traditional mobility work.

Strong + Lengthened = Strongthening 💪

Is your back stiff, tight, and achy?

A lot of people try to solve that by avoiding movement.

But your spine was designed to rotate, bend, absorb force, and move dynamically.

That’s why I spend so much time training:
rotation,
lateral flexion,
elastic recoil,
and trunk coordination.

What you’re seeing here:

• Standing rotations → trunk rotation & elastic recoil
• Bent-over rotations → lower back + posterior chain engagement
• Lateral flexion → side-body strength & spinal movement
• Split-stance rotational throw → force transfer through the hips/core

The goal isn’t just “ab training.”

It’s building a trunk that can move fluidly, absorb force, and stay resilient under movement.

The WaveBreakers let us train rotation and spinal movement dynamically instead of just bracing all the time.

Fantastico for your Back-Tico 🌪️🤌

If you’re thinking…

“I don’t need another fitness tool right now…”

just hear this.

Most coaches already know this part of their programming matters.

But mobility usually gets:

Rushed.
Skipped.
Or pushed to the side.

Not because coaches don’t care.

But because most systems don’t fit naturally into training.

That’s why we built the Grappler.

Not to replace what coaches already do…

but to augment it.

When mobility fits naturally into the session…

clients move better faster.

Sessions run smoother.

And this part finally stops getting skipped.

If you want to see how we use the Grappler to combine mobility, warm-up, and joint strength into one system…

Listen…
I’m just a guy who appreciates movements that are:

Long.
Strong.
Controlled.
And capable of handling pressure. 😏

That’s why we built the Grappler.

Joint strength.
Mobility.
Stability.
Elasticity.
And movement that actually feels GOOD to train.

Because your warm-up shouldn’t feel like punishment.”

Comment “GRAPPLER” if you want to see how we use this for joint strength and mobility training.

Most shoulder work is either:
too stiff…
too isolated…
or completely disconnected from real movement.

With the WaveBreakers, we use full-body momentum, elastic recoil, and long flowing patterns to train the shoulder the way it actually moves.

In this sequence:
• Figure-8 patterns challenge coordination and rotational control
• Full-body back reach opens the chest and anterior chain
• Uppercut patterns lengthen and load the lats dynamically

The goal isn’t just mobility.

It’s building shoulders that can absorb force, create force, and move fluidly through space.

That’s where elasticity changes everything.”
