Our product – FreeBlade – features a unique design that was developed based on exercise research principles.
Resistance training is a fundamental part of the training regimes of elite athletes, as it leads to physical results like increased strength and a decreased risk of injury. The resistance training principle known as “specificity of training” sounds complex but is actually quite simple. It takes training from generic exercises, like lifting weights, to more specific exercises where an athlete practices a similar motion to the action they use in their chosen sport. For a cricket batter, this means swinging your bat using the same technique you would use in a competitive match.
FreeBlade was born with these theories in mind.
The adjustable sleeve has secure inner pockets that hold our small weights, creating a customised weight system that seamlessly integrates with your bat. Performing sets of dry swings and practice hits with FreeBlade will promote increased strength and endurance in the right muscles over time, as it’s specifically tailored to your resistance training needs for cricket. It also helps you develop better bat control and increased bat speed, forming the foundation of power hitting.
This product is the first of its kind globally and is patent pending.
FreeBlade – the world’s most powerful cricket training accessory.

Former Australian Cricketer Nathan Reardon has this to say about FreeBlade
This product explores areas of training that have been used in baseball, golf and tennis; but never in cricket. The ability of cricket players to power hit and bat for long periods of time is essential to the current formats of the game.

FreeBlade is designed to be used as part of your standard training program. This includes throw downs in the nets to shadow batting in the comfort of your own home.
We’ve made every effort to ensure the padding and material used in the harness prevents damage and we are confident that in all but the most extreme conditions, FreeBlade will not affect the ongoing performance of your bat. Excessive and vigorous use may result in minor scuffing to the back of the bat if used under extreme conditions. As a cautionary step, you may wish to train with FreeBlade on a spare bat if using the product while facing repetitive fast bowling.
The FreeBlade standard purchase comes with 2 x 75g weights which adds a combined total of 150g to your bat. This bundle is best suited for top-hand training and junior cricket players under the age of 13. This bundle is the recommended starting weight before progressing to heavier weights (just like using dumbells at the gym).
For cricketers 13 years and older or adults wanting to train their hook and cut shots, we recommend purchasing the additional weight sets in 125g or 250g pairs.
We want you to swing as hard as you like while training with your FreeBlade, knowing that it will stay in place. This is why we designed the safety strap, for your peace of mind. We recommend that you use it every time you use the product, as it helps to ensure the weights remain securely fastened to your bat.
The strap is also adjustable and allows you to move the harness up and down the bat face. This means you can change the positioning of the weight when you are practising different shots.
