With a multi-directional cable system and specialty attachments (such as a bar) capable of more than 100 exercises, “you just step onto it, lift cables, and enter a world of adaptive resistance,” says founder Jon Gregory. Whether you’re following a trainer-led class or your own workout program in the companion app, the machine’s algorithm is able to decrease resistance if you’re not reaching full range of motion in a specific exercise or add on load if you’re flying through reps—helping you stay safe while making gains at home. Post-workout, store it flat and out of sight. **Buy Now:** [Vitruvian Trainer+](https://vitruvianform.com/) ```json [{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"Article","@id":"https://time.com/collections/best-inventions-2022/6228104/vitruvian-trainer/","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://time.com/collections/best-inventions-2022/6228104/vitruvian-trainer/"},"headline":"Lift Without a Spotter","datePublished":"2022-11-10T11:14:48.000Z","dateModified":"2026-03-03T00:09:05.988Z","description":"","url":"https://time.com/collections/best-inventions-2022/6228104/vitruvian-trainer/","keywords":["list","franchise","ecommerce","best inventions","Best Inventions 2022"],"thumbnailUrl":"https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/blt6f335331955cf85e/698a376122fb85c840e2e152/best-inventions-2022-vitruvian-trainer.jpg?branch=production&width=1200&quality=75&auto=webp&crop=1200:675&height=675","author":[{"@type":"Person","name":"Ashley Mateo","jobTitle":null,"url":"https://time.com/author/ashley-mateo/"}],"creator":"Ashley Mateo","articleSection":"","image":[{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/blt6f335331955cf85e/698a376122fb85c840e2e152/best-inventions-2022-vitruvian-trainer.jpg?branch=production&width=1200&quality=75&auto=webp&crop=1200:675&height=675","width":1200,"height":675}],"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Time","url":"https://time.com/","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://time.com/images/logo.png","width":528,"height":156},"foundingDate":"March 3, 1923","sameAs":["https://www.facebook.com/time","https://www.instagram.com/time/?hl=en","https://twitter.com/time","https://www.pinterest.com/timemagazine"]}},{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"BreadcrumbList","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"item":{"@id":"https://time.com/collections/best-inventions-2022/6228104/vitruvian-trainer/","name":"Lift Without a Spotter"}}]}] ```
