Grip Pod
Reebok RunTones
Reebok are one of the market leaders in the sportswear and footwear market. Originally founded in 1895 in Bolton, Reebok have been producing and creating high quality professional sportswear and footwear for over 100 years. Known for their exceptional quality and their high performing products, in recent years Reebok have gained a wider market thanks to their celebrity endorsements and sponsorships which Kelly Brook and Ashlee Simpson both praising their products.
After the huge success and popularity of the Reebok Easytone collection, customer feedback suggested that there was a demand for toning footwear that incorperated the same balance pod technology as the EasyTones but could be worn when running for an intensive workout.
Aside from the Reebok EasyTone collection there is now the Reebok RunTone trainers which have been specifically designed to be worn when running to increase the exercise value. Both of these trainers are part of the new generation of health and wellness shoes and they use technology based on the same challenges and resistance behind stability balls to tone the muscles.
The Reebok EasyTone have been exceptionally popular and with their adapted tehcnology, the RunTones are set to do just as well!
Each style has been designed for a certain activity and offers a different amount of instability and resistance accordingly. The instability is created due to the balance pods on the bottom of the sole, on the ReeRun trainers the balance pods are shallow to make them safe while running and to prevent the foot from twisting while the “grip strip” at the forefoot give the wearer a stable platform.
Reebok RunTones use a unique sole technology that features 6 shallow balance pods of moving air and 2 cushioned stabilisers at the forefoot. These balance pods make the muscles work harder and by placing the additional pods, which are smaller than on the EayTones, on the sole the instability is more manageable so the wearer can control the balance easily when running but can still intensify the workout.
The balance pods on the ReeRun trainers focus on strengthening the muscles, thus enhancing the endurance so can improve and lengthen the duration. Compared to a standard, foam based, running shoe, RunTones encourage more activation in the key leg and bum areas such as the calves, hamstrings and gluteus maximus and reduces overally stress in the body.
ReeRun trainers can enhance the toning benefits of running while also preventing cellulite and improving its appearance. Reebok RunTones increase muscle activiation and consequently the blood flow which allows the lymphatic system to drain efficiently. When the lymphatic system is sluggish, excess fat can’t be absorbed so becomes visible under the skin in the form of cellulite. Research shows that improving the circluation can have a huge effect on preventing cellulite.
Reebok RunTone shoes also feature Reebok’s innovative Smoothfit seamless liner which maximises the comfort, fit and durability levels while the DMX cushioning panels give addtional comfort an reduce stress on the heel. Reebok RunTone Trainers allow you to run in comfort while also protecting the body and enhancing the sense of health and wellbeing.
