Company profile

researched Aug 2026

FightCamp offers a home training system for boxing, kickboxing and related martial arts. The core product combines hardware — a console with four punch trackers, quick wraps and ankle wraps — with an accompanying app that delivers guided workouts, interactive learning modules and à la carte sessions led by trainers the company describes as working fighters. The app incorporates motion-sensing technology used to track activity and provide accountability and measured progress.

The product is sold in tiered packages. A Connect tier supplies only the console, trackers and wraps for customers who already own a bag and gloves; a Core tier adds a free-standing boxing bag to create a complete starter setup; and an Elite tier further adds a bag ring, boxing gloves and a heart rate monitor. Packages are advertised as starting at $299. Alongside the consumer offering, the company markets FightCamp WORK, a version of the system positioned for gym settings.
