MBT Shoes, Skechers Shape-Ups,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], Reebok EasyTones: Do They Work
Reebok, MBT, and Skechers are some of the more popular companies that offer the wildly popular toning shoes. These companies claim their shoes can help women everywhere get in shape and stay in shape. But can the shoes live up to their claims? Experts and testers agree the shoes have some exciting benefits,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], but they won't allow wearers to forgo the gym in order to meet fitness and strength goals.
Toning shoes are shoes made with a deliberately unstable surface. The instability forces wearers to activate muscles they would not use otherwise,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], as they work to align and balance the body with each step. As a result, women who wear toning shoes expend more energy and produce greater effort to walk than if they were wearing traditional shoes. This increased muscle activity, claim manufacturers, has many benefits: it can burn more calories, improve posture,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], tone muscles,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], and aid in weight loss.
Reebok's EasyTone shoes were designed by a former NASA scientist and were inspired by the Bosu ball. EasyTones have air pods underneath the ball and heel of the shoe that create an unstable surface to walk on. Reebok contends the unstable surface forces wearers to activate the hamstrings,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], calves, and glutes in order to maintain balance. The result is 11% more hamstring and calf work and 28% more glute work than a wearer would get with traditional shoes. Reebok's EasyTone shoes retail at $100. Reebok also offers the EasyTone flip flop for $60.
