Banglz, like so many fitness gadgets, promise to get you in better shape.
But you don’t use them just at home or the gym. These are wearable weights you keep on all day.
Wrapped in interchangeable sleeves made of various fabrics, Banglz are designed to help you incorporate resistance training into everyday activities such as cleaning, cooking, playing with kids or walking the dog.
They also can be worn during yoga, Pilates, Zumba or other classes for extra resistance.
If bands aren’t for you, Banglz also offers Smartslip underskirts, which rely on tight, stretchy fabric to add a “slight, ongoing resistance” to your every step by targeting “hips, glutes and legs.”
Smartslips, available in three styles and six sizes, range from $41.95 to $46.95. Two ½-pound wrist Banglz cost $24.95.
