SEATED ELLIPTICAL

Octane Fitness LLC released the xRide seated elliptical to broaden exercise choices for everyone from beginners to elite athletes. The xRide delivers the benefits of a standing elliptical — total-body, low-impact cardiovascular workouts — from a comfortable seated position. Its elliptical power stroke provides a greater range of motion and increased glute activity than that experienced on recumbent bikes. Pedaling forward or in reverse adds variety and different muscle activity, and the upper body is engaged fully with the ergonomically designed, proprietary MultiGrip handlebars.

SPORTS DRINKS

Skinny Water beverages are enhanced waters that do more than just refresh. A true “aqua-ceutical,” Skinny Water starts with super-purified water and adds a unique combination of electrolytes (calcium and potassium) along with EGCG, an extract of green tea, to promote hydration and nutrient absorption. Building on this base formula, each flavor of Skinny Water adds other nutraceutical enhancements, such as SuperCitriMax and ChromeMate, for jitter-free appetite control. The water can make for an ideal pro shop item for your members.
