 Manhattan Beach, CA, October 27 – Visitors to Booths 317 and 416 will have the opportunity to view Shape-ups, a revolutionary new line of footwear from Skechers.The shoes are perfect for nurses, technicians, and office staff, and can be worn in any environment where slip resistant footwear is needed or required. Shape ups are designed to enhance the benefits of walking by stimulating muscles not utilized with standard walking shoes. They also reduce the impact on joints by providing a more natural, forgiving walking surface. Designed to improve your life by changing the way you walk, Shape-ups feature a unique soft kinetic wedge insert and dynamic rolling bottom to simulate walking on a soft giving surface like sand. With the comfort of Shape-ups, you will feel your heel sink to the ground as you step, roll forward as your weight shifts to its center, and push off with your toes. This movement will result in stronger leg, buttock, back and abdominal muscles as you stabilize your steps. During a six-week clinical trial focusing on weight loss, body composition, glutei strength, and low back endurance, participants were instructed to wear Shape-ups shoes during their normal daily activities and typical walking program, while also maintaining their usual diet and exercise strategies. All participants were assessed at the beginning of the trial and every two weeks until its conclusion. All data was recorded, charted and analyzed. The results indicated: • an average weight loss by our participants of 3.25 pounds • an overall average improvement of body composition (reduction of body fat) of 1.125% • an average improvement of glutei strength by 41% • an average improvement of low back endurance by 37% One can also assume that Shape-ups' dynamic rolling bottom, soft foam insole and dual-density midsole can target and condition the postural and stability muscles of the hips and lower back. Stop by Booths #317 and #416 and see the benefits for yourself. You can also visit us on the web at www.skechers.com
