Do you have stretches that help with lower back pain or injury prevention?

Our physical therapist developed a special FLEXFIT 5 routine to target the lower back. Additionally, keeping your hamstrings loose has an effect on your back and using FLEXFIT has been proven as an excellent way to increase your range of motion (flexibility) of your hamstrings.

Is FLEXFIT safe for my grandmother?

FLEXFIT is safe for everyone! Our clinical study participants were aged 14-56 years young, but Rachelle’s own grandmother (aged 80) has used FLEXFIT to help ease the pain of her polymyalgia. We have also had kids as young as 4 try it out with parental supervision, of course!

Is it safe to stretch with FLEXFIT if I’m pregnant?

Like with everything, please consult your doctor, but remaining active is a good thing and stretching can help you maintain an active lifestyle. One of our early supporters at CrossFit EXP used FLEXFIT regularly after classes while she was pregnant. She just modified his position, so instead of laying down, she sat with her legs out and stretched.

Do I just have to use the foot saddle on my foot?

FLEXFIT originally started as a device targeted for the lower leg, and as we expanded stretches to include the upper body, we kept the description to be true to our roots. Use the foot saddle on your foot, your leg, your arm or even around a bar or door knob. Don’t let the description limit you!

Why do you say the FLEX clip will help extend the stretching range?

The FLEX clip allows the bottom portion of the FLEXFIT to form a loop that can be tightened around your foot for example, which keeps it in place, allowing you to bring your leg to higher levels or steeper angles that you might be able to without the extra security of the FLEX clip. We have a FLEXFIT 5 routine targeted for those who enjoy extreme flexibility. We call it FLEXFIT Extreme for dancers.

Is FLEXFIT waterproof?

FLEXFIT can get wet, it will not shed water, but it will dry. The type of webbing was purposely chosen as it dries easily, resists absorption and holds it shape. We tested FLEXFIT in swimming pools from New England to Southern Florida and even at the beach.

Is FLEXFIT really that easy to adjust for my height?

With our unique combination of hardware, FLEXFIT can be adjusted simply by pulling toward you or pushing away from you. If you need even more or even less length, then slide the FLEX clip the direction you need and readjust the rest of the unit. Take a look at the video under the “FLEXFIT Advantage” in our story section for a demonstration.

BackerKit FAQ

What is BackerKit?

BackerKit is a service that crowdfunded project creators use to keep track of hundreds to tens of thousands of backers—from shipping details, pledge levels, preferences and quantities, whether they have paid or had their card declined, special notes, and everything in between!

The BackerKit software and support team is independent from the campaign’s project team—BackerKit does not handle the actual reward shipping. For more information about the preparation or delivery status of your rewards, please check the project's updates page.

How does BackerKit work?

After the campaign ends, the project creator will send you an email with a unique link to your survey. You can check out a walkthrough of the process here.

I never received my invitation. How do I complete the survey?

The most common reasons for not receiving a survey email is that you may be checking an email inbox different from the email address you used to sign up with Kickstarter, Indiegogo or Tilt Pro account, or it may be caught in your spam filter.

Confirm that the email address you are searching matches the email address tied to your Kickstarter, Indiegogo, or Tilt Pro account. If that doesn’t work, then try checking your spam, junk or promotions folders. You can also search for "backerkit” in your inbox.

To resend the survey to yourself, visit the project page and input the email address associated with your Kickstarter, Indiegogo or Tilt Pro account.

How do I update my shipping address?

BackerKit allows you to update your shipping address until the shipping addresses are locked by the project creator. To update your address, go back to your BackerKit survey by inputting your email here.

When will my order be shipped, charged or locked?

That is handled directly by the project creator. BackerKit functions independently of the project itself, so we do not have control of their physical shipping timeline. If you want to check on the project’s status, we recommend reading over the project's updates page.

I completed the survey, but haven't received my rewards yet. When will they arrive?

As BackerKit does not actually handle any rewards or shipping, the best way to stay updated on the shipping timeline would be to check out the project's updates page.
