The 55 Fitness

The55 is an all-in-one, multi-weighted sandbag built for versatility and performance. Designed to replace multiple pieces of gym equipment, it features four adjustable weight options for limitless workouts - whether at home, in the gym, or outdoors. Made with military-grade durability, The55 makes functional fitness simple, effective, and portable.

The idea began in 2009, when the founder - serving in the UK military - saw a need for better field training equipment while deployed in Afghanistan. Inspired by a toiletry bag, he created the first prototype with his mother’s sewing machine, using a pillowcase.

By 2013, after rigorous testing, the design evolved into the Battle Bag - a patent-protected, army-approved training tool, with over 800 units deployed across military units.

In 2021, The55 was launched for the wider fitness community, bringing military-level strength and adaptability to everyone.

Now, The55 is going global - ready to support training anywhere, anytime, for anyone who wants a no-limits workout.

Ubloquity

Ubloquity believes that trust is the foundation of global trade. Without it, supply chains fail, businesses stall, and economies weaken. True trust isn’t built on paperwork or outdated systems - it’s built on transparency, verification, and frictionless interactions that move goods, data, and assets with absolute certainty.

That’s why Ubloquity exists: to eliminate friction in trade by addressing inefficiencies, blind spots, and vulnerabilities that cost businesses billions in lost revenue and wasted resources. The company transforms how industries authenticate, track, and trade through seamless digital asset identity - ensuring every movement across the supply chain is verifiable, trusted, and secure.

Leveraging DLT, AI, and digital identity, Ubloquity creates an ecosystem where authenticity and integrity are unquestionable. From aerospace to defence, from digital identities to physical assets, every product, component, and shipment carries an immutable record of trust.

This isn’t just innovation - it’s the new standard for trade. In a world where data is the currency of trust, Ubloquity is the backbone of frictionless global commerce.
