NIKA CRISTIANI LIVE ON THE “CUOMO” SHOW | NEWSNATION

A Founder’s Fight for Innovation, Truth & the Future of Small Business

🗓️ Aired: Wednesday, June 11 at 5:30 PM PST

📺 Network: NewsNation | Show: CUOMO with Chris Cuomo

At GYM IN A BOX® L.A., we’ve never been silent — and this June, our founder Nika Cristiani took that truth national.

Live on NewsNation’s “CUOMO” show, Nika stood tall not just as a fitness tech entrepreneur, but as a fierce voice for American small businesses under siege. From exploding tariffs to economic uncertainty to ICE raids hitting legal immigrant workers — this isn’t just a political moment. It’s an economic reckoning for brands like ours.

“We built GYM IN A BOX® from scratch — no investors, no shortcuts. Just science, passion, and pure hustle right here in Los Angeles.”

— Nika Cristiani, Founder & CEO

What We Do:

GYM IN A BOX® is America’s pioneer in luxury wearable fitness and beauty technology — proudly Made in L.A. and powered by our patented ToneUp15® NextGen StimFit Technology.

💥 We help people tone, sculpt, lift and rejuvenate — without the gym.

💡 Our product line includes everything from full-body EMS toning wearables to spa-grade anti-aging facial devices.

📍 Designed and assembled in the Los Angeles Fashion District — not in a foreign warehouse.

We were the first to bring EMS (Electro Muscular Stimulation) from Europe to the U.S. back in 2015. And when the pandemic hit? We pivoted fast. We built the first full-body and facial EMS wearable line in the U.S. — with a patent to prove it.

Everything on www.gyminabox.la is powered by our exclusive ToneUp15® technology — not a cheap knockoff.

💣 We own the patent. We set the standard. We are the original.

The Real Cost of Political Chaos

While corporations are bailed out, small businesses like ours are forced to fight:

  • +145% tariffs on essential components
  • ICE raids disrupting our teams — including legal, tax-paying workers
  • National Guard presence in peaceful areas of L.A.
  • Rising inflation and instability squeezing every margin

This is the America we’re navigating in 2025.

And that’s why we spoke out — live on national television.

We’re grateful to Governor Gavin Newsom for fighting for California’s small businesses. We thank NewsNation and Chris Cuomo for using their platform to amplify voices like ours — and for standing up for truth over noise.

A Personal Note from NIKA:

“Chris, thank you for cutting through the lies and putting a real spotlight on what’s happening to entrepreneurs like us. You gave us a platform when others stayed silent — and that means everything.”


From Beverly Hills to the world, GYM IN A BOX® is here to stay — rebellious, resilient, and built on science. We will never back down.
