What WeckMethod does

WeckMethod is a San Diego-based functional fitness equipment and training education company, founded in 2013, that develops and sells proprietary hardware and instructional content built around its trademarked Rotational Movement Training® (RMT) methodology. The company's underlying technology is a branded methodology stack — Rotational Movement Training®, Coiling Core Training®, Limit Force Elastic®, Bilateral Torsion Training®, Non-Dominant Side Training®, and Double Down Pulse™ — paired with purpose-built equipment including the ProPulse® Power Vest, RMT® Club, BOSU® Elite balance trainer, ProPulse® Speed Trainers, RMT® Rope, SoleSteps®, WM Resistance Bands, Hybrid® Rope, and Punch Pads, with the X-DECK™ training platform in prototype development. Core IP is protected via eight registered trademarks.

WeckMethod monetizes through three revenue streams. First, direct-to-consumer e-commerce hardware sales via shop.weckmethod.com, supporting six currencies (USD, EUR, GBP, JPY, AUD, CAD) and global shipping. Second, paid certification and education programs — both live and online — including the Rotational Movement Training® Certification ($495–$595) and the multi-day RMTS+WMQ Combination course ($1,680–$1,995), with equipment bundled into select tiers. Third, affiliate distribution of third-party partner products, including co-branded BOSU® items, through the WeckMethod storefront. Go-to-market is direct-to-consumer with a mid-funnel layer of professional certification; high-profile athlete endorsements (Olympic wrestler Jordan Burroughs, 2020 World Series Champion Austin Barnes, World Long Drive Champion Justin James, 4x Paralympic medalist Jerome Avery) serve as primary top-of-funnel marketing assets.

The company is privately held, headquartered at 320 16th Street in San Diego, operates with 11–50 employees, and has not disclosed any venture capital or institutional funding. Its customer segments span professional and Olympic athletes, certified fitness professionals and personal trainers, and general fitness enthusiasts, supported by a 60,000+ newsletter subscriber community, an in-house Innovation Group for product development, and live training events held in the U.S. and in Erkrath, Germany.
