Hi, I’m Martin, I’ve been lifting weights since I was 12.

Back then it was just me and my two older brothers in London, figuring things out in a makeshift home gym. No fancy equipment, no shortcuts — just a lot of trial, error, and sweat.

Some things have changed since then.

One thing hasn’t…

I’ve always hated carrying a towel.

The Problem Nobody Fixed

If you actually train properly, you’ll understand this instantly:

You’re mid-session. You’re focused. You’re moving plates, adjusting machines, getting in the zone…

…and your towel?

It’s either in your hand, falling off your shoulder, or somehow on the floor again.

Perfect!!

For years I kept thinking:
“Why is this still a thing?”

Even better:
“Why hasn’t anyone fixed this?”

Eventually, I stopped waiting……

So I Built It Myself

No design background. No experience. No clue what I was doing at the start.

Just an idea that wouldn’t go away.

I spoke to hundreds of manufacturers around the world, went through endless designs, made mistakes, fixed them, and kept going until I had something that actually worked.

That something became Gymlit.

Yes… It Looks Like a Bib

Let’s address it……… People say it. I’ve heard it……..It kind of does.

But here’s the thing……Babies don’t bench press!

It’s Actually Built for the Gym

Once you use it, it clicks.

Gymlit isn’t just “different” — it’s designed for real workouts:

• Hands-free — because your hands have better things to do
• Stays put — no slipping, no adjusting, no nonsense
• Hygiene backflap — your head never touches sweaty benches again
• No sweat patches left behind — for you or anyone else
• Lightweight & compact — not a bulky bathroom towel pretending to be gym gear

It does exactly what a gym towel should have been doing all along.

For People Who Actually Train

Most towels in gyms…..they’re just towels.

Gymlit is for people who take training seriously — the ones who notice the small details because they add up to better sessions.

Less distraction. More focus.

We’re Just Getting Started

This started with a simple idea: Make something better.

Now it’s turning into something much bigger.

Gymlit is about solving real problems in the gym — and this is only the first one.

If you’re here now, you’re early.

Stick around. It's going to get interesting!
