At-home workouts

BattleBag MMA Fitness

MMA athletes are considered to be the best conditioned of all sports. This home system will give you all the benefits of their training without the contact and risk of injuries. The BattleBag workout is based on the structure of a UFC bout. You will be guided through a 3-Round Fitness Interval System, targeting upper body, lower body, core and cardio conditioning – in 15 minutes! It’s designed to cater to all fitness levels and no martial arts experience is required.

KettleWorX

Ideal proportion and whole body tone is almost impossible to achieve with typical exercise equipment because machines isolate and overdevelop certain muscle groups through repetitive, two-dimensional motions. That type of exercise can produce a ‘bulky’ unbalanced look. KettleWorX does not isolate muscles but instead works the entire body simultaneously and in three dimensions. Constant, flowing motion with simultaneous muscle activity across the entire body results in a long, lean look for women and a well-toned, well-muscled physique for men. Each 20-minute KettleWorX routine effectively tones and conditions every muscle in your body! The result is a 20-minute workout with the results of a 2-hour workout. It’s not magic – it’s just amazingly efficient!

Aqua Bag

The Aqua Bag looks innocent enough. That is until you pop it over your head. The sloshing water can embarrass even the strongest athlete if they’re not ready. It will push and pull you in every direction – and if your stabilizing muscles aren’t ready you’ll end up on the floor. It’s completely different from any other fitness tool you’ve used in the past. It’s fun (because it’s so different) but will also challenge you to the extreme.

Offering multiple training options and exercises – you really are only limited by your imagination. This super strong material will also be able to handle any punishment you can throw its way. Ideal for anyone looking for an effective, but different, workout.

Training Ropes (aka Battle Ropes)

These ropes allow the average person wishing to lose a few pounds and get in better shape a stress-busting workout. It also allows the world-class athlete or competitor to push their limits to the point of failure in a safe manner. Simply put, the Battling Ropes can be used by anyone regardless of their goals. The reason for this is because you control the system, it does not control you. Your legs don’t have to move fast to strengthen your heart and accelerate fat loss. It’s easy on your joints and activates the muscles in your upper body and core. Experts say using these ropes can generate more sutained power than running and can crank up your metabolism and improve total body conditioning. You can also take them outside – wrap them around a tree, bench, or fence to provide a great outdoor workout in minimal time.
