SPRI Advanced Traveling Trainer Review

SPRI Advanced Traveling TrainerI've been using SPRI resistance bands for three years.I steadily progressed from light/medium resistance to heavy/very heavy resistance.My ONLY complaint is that the purple (very heavy) band is the highest resistance and I've become too strong for it on some exercises (I'm a man so I doubt most women will outgrow that highest resistance).I'm doing repetitions of over 25 on some routines.I use these bands at work in my office because I otherwise sit on my butt all day.I've found creative ways to lock the door attachment device to my locking bookshelves.I've been using them twice per day and I do five different muscle groups, both left and right side.I walk/run or ride a recumbent bike in the evening for 45-60 mins.I do both five times per week and take the weekends off.As can be imagined, I've saved a lot on expensive gym equipment and memberships.My workouts are pretty cheap and nearly free.In three years I've lost about 25 lbs of fat and put on about 10 lbs of muscle.I've taken about 3.5 inches off my waistline.My physique actually looks athletic and toned now, and I'm middle aged.

I tried cheaper resistance cords and they ended up snapping on me, they actually broke.That can be dangerous.The main reason I recommend SPRI is because I've never had one break on me and I'm only on my 2nd set in three years.I bought the second set mainly just for peace of mind, but also to have one extra set for travel and such.These are very well made exercise bands, reasonably priced, and make for very effective and convenient muscle toning and fat burning workouts.

Natural Fitness Resistance Toning Kit Review

Natural Fitness Resistance Toning KitI needed something small, but effective, to work out at home. The price was right so I figured I would give this kit a try. It offers a wide variety of exercises for an affordable price. All the components work pretty well together. I was surprised at how much I can do with so little. I like the fact that Natural Fitness plants a tree for every product sold. Pretty cool that they incorporate eco-friendly materials too. I own a few products by this company and they have all been great.

About the Zero Impact Program


One of Natural Fitness's founding principles is to tread lightly on the earth. They aim to offset the environmental impact that results from the manufacturing and distribution of their products. To achieve this, the company created their Zero Impact Program (ZIP). While Natural Fitness is always looking for new and creative ways to offset their eco-footprint, here's is what the company is currently doing:

    Plant-A-Tree Initiative: For every product sold, Natural Fitness will fund the planting of a tree, which can remove up to 2,000 pounds of pollution from the atmosphere. Through various partner organizations, the company hopes to improve the lives of people around the world by implementing sustainable land-use programs utilizing the trees provided. Locations for planting trees vary; but past projects have been conducted throughout Asia, Africa, and the Americas. Each location and project is researched and developed to implement the most effective plan possible; one that is best for the people and eco-system involved.
    Offsetting the eco-footprint of their employees and offices.
    Offering the most environmentally-friendly products available.
    Use a "green" web host company that utilizes solar panels to power its data center and office.
    Partnering with like-minded companies to raise public awareness about the environmental problems created through use of fossil fuels and other non-sustainable practices.
    Using recycled content paper in business cards, letterhead, envelopes, labels, checks, and printer/copier paper. All of the product packaging and inserts that Natural Fitness uses are made with recycled paper.
    Using recycled packaging materials and boxes in the company's warehouse. They also pack with old newspapers and other recyclable paper products.
    Helped create the Chicago Biodiesel Co-op, which educated, promotes, and produces locally-derived biofuels.
    Greening the company's comprehensive recycling program and using natural light when possible.
    Spearheaded an ambitious recycling program for the 500,000 square foot office building Natural Fitness occupies, along with 60 companies.
