SIMPLYWEIGHTS, llc, (Wayne, PA) makers of BANGLZ and SMARTSLIP products is helping raise money and awareness to a local foundation, “NANCY CARES” and PENN Radiology this month.

Fitness innovators at Simplyweights, LLC, launches Banglz, a revolutionary line of designer fitness wrist and ankle weights to be worn 'everyday and all of the time'. Banglz have been designed to meet the demands of our multi-tasking lifestyles and now everyone can add fitness, any time.
Many times, when people hear the word "exercise," they begin to hyperventilate as they create a variety of reasons (excuses) why they shouldn’t do it. While I’m an advocate of gym workouts—because of the greater variety of exercise options and intensity variables—there is no reason why any one of us can’t burn extra calories during our daily activities.
Even if you already work out at a gym—say five times per week, one hour each session—that still wouldn’t suffice for keeping your body optimally conditioned. Considering that the body was designed to be in motion, five hours of exercise out of the 168 hours in a week is not enough to be truly fit. For those who don’t work out, there’s an even greater need for vigorous daily activities. There is an energy balance equation: calories in (foods and beverages consumed) versus calories out (physical activities) determines whether we store excess fat or stay/become leaner and healthier.
Strength training - whether through weights, machines or other forms of resistance - has been shown to help Baby Boomers stay active and help stave off the aches and pains that come with the aging process.
The Journal of the American Medical Association released a study in December showing that regular physical exercise in general helped individuals age 60 and older maintain mobility and live longer.
What if you could get a workout just by wearing a piece of jewelry?
Two main line moms had that very question in mind when they put their heads (and creative spirits) together to create Banglz, a company offering a variety of weighted, colorful fashion accessories to give the wearer a resistance workout while he or she goes through his or her regular day.
For active lifestyles & individuals:
Wear your Banglz for 1 hour the first day so that you can gage your own health and fitness level. Add an hour each day for a maximum of 8 hours a day. Plan to wear them when you are involved in normal daily activities for maximum benefit. After this you won't want to miss a day!
For Inactive Lifestyles & Individuals with no regular exercise habits:
Place them on just before you are involved in a daily activity (such as daily dressing) versus sitting stationary.
Why can't we add something to our day .. to our life just the way it is and get body benefits? With multitasking being the norm, how can we keep our demanding schedules and work our bodies at the same time? This became our quest and our passion.
We spent years finding just the right materials, inside and out. After many trials and errors, we discovered what seems so simple actually is. Banglz and the Smartslip are the most simple, comfortable, fun and GOOD FOR YOU way to work your body! Put them on in the morning and GO!
WE ARE TOTALLY OBSESSED WITH BANGLZ & SMARTSLIPS BECAUSE:
Welcome to the NEW FITNESS REALITY! BANGLZ are the greatest fitness accessory that allows you to take your workout with you! They are the ANY TIME, EVERYWHERE Wrist and Ankle weights with style. When selecting bands, first consider how you plan to use them.
