The OYO Personal Gym – lose weight and get fit anywhere and at any time

NEWS – For quite some time, my family has pursued a healthy lifestyle with major changes to our diet and our exercise habits. Personally, I have lost approximately 50 pounds, and so far, I have kept the weight off for over a year. As a part of my exercise routine, I walk about 2 miles every Monday thru Friday, back and forth from the railroad to my job. However, I work long hours, and I have not been able to utilize our treadmill at home as I would like to. Honestly, after a long day, it is sometimes mentally difficult to get on the treadmill for 45 minutes. Also, I was a bodybuilder for many years, and I much prefer to be able to target specific muscle groups for each and every workout. Since I no longer work out with weights, an effective option would be great.

Enter the OYO Gym! This exercise apparatus promises to give you the flexibility and ability to target the specific muscle groups, without the need for weights and all that goes with using weights. It touts itself as a total body portable gym, featuring SpiraFlex resistance technology that replaces weights. It only weighs 2 pounds and provides up to 25 pounds of smooth resistance, and it folds up small enough for you to carry in your bag or even in your back pocket. The manufacturer also claims that it combines strength with movement, without weight or momentum. In addition, they offer a free OYO app to help you with your workouts.

If you would like to learn more about the OYO Gym or purchase one, you can do so on Amazon. It is available for purchase for $149.95.

Fight toe flab with the Foot Gym

The HOVR exercise gadget might help you not die from sitting at your desk all day

We’ve all heard that sitting all day is the new cancer. And that explains why standing desks and treadmill desks have become so popular in the last couple of years. But what about those of you who don’t want to or can’t stand for an extended period of time? Should you just give up and make a reservation at the morgue? Don’t give up just yet. There is another way that you can add more movement to your otherwise sedentary day and burn up to 20% more calories while you’re at it.

I’m talking about the HOVR under the desk active-sitting device. HOVR is kind of like a swing set for your feet and comes in two styles. One that attaches to the bottom of your existing desk, and one that comes with its own frame that sits on the floor under your desk. Both styles provide a place for your feet to rest to provide a non-distracting way to move all day without even thinking about it.

The price for the HOVR ranges from $79.99 – $149.99 depending on which version you go with. For more info visit hovrpro.com and head over to Amazon to order one.
