Pinjian Ultimate Resistance Band Set



This is so so much like the set I saw my mother use while I was growing up. Very easy to setup and use. You can change your resistance by adding or taking away bands. You can use this on it's own or attached to a door depending on what exercises you will be doing on any given day.

The best part is when you are done this all fits into the bag included so you can take this along with you on vacation, to college, or just to store away until the next use.

With Fibromyalgia and other health problems I am limited in things I can do but I am glad this is one of the things I can do on good days.

This Resistance Band Kit can be found on Amazon in several size kits.


What Pinjian has to say about their product.

We put user experience as the top priority.That's why we have the high quality rubber material, premium level nylon tissue, thicker metal clipping system, cushioned foam handles, improved safe door anchor and ankle strap.
The resistance band set is lightweight, compact in size, extremely portable, and great for travel. Even more, they're exceptionally versatile, offering a wide range of training exercises--simply change your position to focus on different muscle groups.

Fitness Gloves




These fitness gloves from RIM Sports are available in 8 colors. They have a nice fit with a velcro closure. Available in sizes XS-XL.

Great for exercise, biking, driving, etc. My daughter likes to use her for lunges while I use my set for yoga for a more firm grip when I am changing positions.

With all of the colors and sizes available I am sure these would make a great gift for anyone who loves exercise.


The RIM Sports fitness gloves can be found on Amazon.


What Rim Sports has to say about their product.

RIMSports' Women's Workout Gloves are designed with women in mind! We know you need to support your wrists when lifting free weights, protect your hands while doing your forearm headstand, and comfortably fold your knuckles when delivering that hook punch - all while maintaining a sense of cuteness. We get it! Our gloves are made from breathable material so your hands won't overheat, while the padding on the palm protects and helps to hold your grip. RIMSports' products are made to fit your lifestyle - we got you ladies!
RIMSports Gloves are NOT LIKE THE OTHERS Durability : Unlike cheaper gloves that use rubber and foam, we use leather and spandex, which make our products more durable and workout safe.
Comfort : While the majority of the available workout gloves use the traditional across the wrist strap, which can often be restricting and uncomfortable, our wide velcro latch is diagonal, providing flexibility and movement.
Support : Some workout gloves are designed simply for show and so they cannot be used for heavy weight lifting; our gloves are made for show and support, giving you the versatility you desire.
Our gloves are true to size but if you are between two sizes choose the smaller size.

Yoga Blocks





I love these yoga blocks from Veda as well as the strap that comes with it. Yoga should never hurt and never force your body into a position that hurts. With these blocks and strap you can get your body into those harder poses slowly and in the right way so you don't hurt your body.

Great for when you want to reach the next level or do some poses you might not be able to obtain without either of these. Very easy to use. Search on the web and you can find out how to implement these into your yoga routine.

The Veda Yoga Blocks can be found on Amazon.


What Veda has to say about their prduct.

Reach your goals faster with this set of yoga blocks and strap
Blocks and straps are essential tools in yoga, especially in the beginning if you're not so flexible. The blocks and strap enable you to reach deeper into your positions and complete yoga poses previously unattainable. Don't strain your body into bad positions, keep good form by using the blocks and strap to perform the exercises safely and correctly and work towards your goals.
High density durable foam
The Veda yoga blocks are made of EVA foam, which is extremely lightweight yet incredibly firm giving you great balance and a lifetime of yoga use. Made to the studio standard size of 9" x 6" x 4" these are the only blocks you will ever need. Reach deeper into your poses with correct form and alignment with support from the Veda yoga blocks.
Yoga strap included - extend your reach!
Modify your pose and practice correct form by using our included yoga strap. When you're struggling to reach your feet or grasp hands in certain poses a strap enables you to bridge the gap and work on your flexibility over time. Enabling you to join in on any yoga position, no matter how difficult, the strap makes it possible.
Veda yoga straps are made of premium non-stretch cotton twill which is both durable and soft to skin. The metal D-ring buckle enables you to easily tighten and release the strap. Works well even in hot sweaty conditions.
Money Back Guarantee
If for any reason you are not 100% satisfied, please return your Veda Yoga hand towel within 30 days for a no-questions asked, full refund.

DanceCrazy Stretching Strap & Exercise DVD



Stretching is so important. I have always tried to stretch everyday. You know that one good stretch that just makes you feel good all day long? Yes that is the stretch I am talking about. This kind of stretching is a bit different but great for those who do yoga, pilates, or any other exercise where stretching is a must. I love that this takes you from the beginning, so if you are new to stretching with or without a strap this is a great DVD to start with.

DanceCrazy is one of my favorite companies to find dance video how to's, exercise equipment, as well as some awesome food choices.

The  DanceCrazy Stretching Strap & Exercise DVD can be found on Amazon.


What DanceCrazy has to say about their product.

This is a DVD - there is NO exercise strap/band included.

This is DanceCrazy's DVD on using stretching straps and bands to get the most out of them. It's a great beginner's workout, and if you have a stretching strap, this is for you!

We think you'll love this thoughtfully created step by step beginner's DVD to stretching (and using stretch bands and straps).

This is a comfortable ring to use with great hand and thigh holds. You can do so many different moves with this from beginner to advanced. I love it because I can change my workout to match how my Fibromyalgia is flaring up on any given day.

Protect your wrists while weightlifting





Are you into weightlifting? If you are looking for a great pair of unisex gloves for this purpose then these might be what you are looking for. Available in four colors to match your favorite workout gear.

Even though these were slotted for my son, I love that they protect the wrists and these look like they do a great job of it.

My husband tried these on since his and my sons hands are about the same size. He loved how they felt on his wrists as well. Ours are in XL and they were not too small or too big they had fit his hands just right.

Hideaway Exercise Equipment




Most people who know us personally know we are big people which makes it hard to find fitness equipment to work out on. I was regular size until I had kidney problems and since then my weight has gone up and down all on it's own with just me eating the same way either way.

Now that I have Fibromyalgia I have put on quite a bit more weight because most days I am in so much pain I can hardly move at all, so I wanted to be able to move a little more each day but equipment to hold our weight is astronomical and even most gyms don't carry equipment that holds our weight, and to think there are much bigger people out there then us.

I won't get into the politics of it all but I will say that they need to make equipment better and more affordable for those who are overweight be it their fault or health issues so that they are encouraged to lose weight.

This suspension kit can and does hold our weight. It doesn't feel sloppy, but rather it feels secure so I have been working on light exercises that I can handle with my problems and I am very happy with the extra help it gives me in moving and toning.

I love that when I am not using it, I can stuff the whole thing in the bag that it comes with and you would never know I even have equipment in the house. This is also versatile for many different heights and also for different exercises. Believe me just do a search and you will be surprised by how much this one thing can do for your body. Love it.

You can find this Suspension Fitness Band Set on Amazon.

The Magic Ring





The Magic Ring or Pilates Ring is something I am new to and something that just might get me into Pilates. This starts you out slow and you can really get a feel for what pilates will do for your body.

Very easy to use even with having Fibromyalgia I am able to do these exercises without causing pain so it gets a thumbs up from me. In the pictures you can see my daughter demonstrating two different exercises because I had to take the pictures.

Yoga Capri's



These capris come in several sizes and designs. These are great for yoga, pilates, running, exercise, or just doing errands. My daughter likes how these fit. She can toss them in the washer, dry them, and they are ready to wear again. She loves pink so the pink and white inlays are a great color contrast for your legs.

These capris move well for her active lifestyle and keep up with her. She gives them a thumbs up and hopes there will be more colors to choose from soon.

Hydration Belt


This Hydration belt from Koh Fit is bigger than most I have seen and is more sturdy or comfortable then others I have seen.

I like that this hydration belt comes with metal water bottles but I wish they had a wide mouth so that I can fit ice into the water bottles, as well as making them easier to clean.

With three pockets, one in the middle and one on either side you have lots of room to separate and organize your needs, from money, music, snacks, keys, ID, you have a place for them all.

This comes in two colors, has great reflective quality and fits great without hurting your hips.


This Hydration Belt  is available on Amazon.


What Fit Harmony has to say about their product.

By the time you begin to feel thirsty, you're already dehydrated and likely not running or working out to the best of your abilities. That's why it's important for runners and fitness enthusiasts like you to drink water throughout exercise, and the Fit Harmony Hydration Belt makes it easy to do just that!

The Fit Harmony Hydration Belt is an ergonomic waist belt with two deep water bottle pockets. With the belt, you receive two 16 oz aluminum water bottles that fit perfectly into the side pockets. A center pocket with a securely fastening zipper allows you to keep your iPhone and other essentials with you during every workout. 

Compared to other hydration belts found on Amazon, the Fit Harmony Hydration Belt is truly superior. Our running hydration belt is the best because it's: 

- FULLY ADJUSTABLE. You can easily get a perfect fit with the waistband, so you never have to worry about the belt slipping or bouncing. 

- MORE COMFORTABLE. Our breathable, padded waist belt feels great throughout any workout, eliminating distractions. 

- MORE VERSATILE. The included water bottles feature hooks on their lids, allowing you to attach them to any gear bag for use without the belt. 

- ROOMIER. In addition to the center pocket, the design includes detachable side pockets for even more storage possibilities. 

- SAFER. Our aluminum water bottles are completely BPA & toxin free. 

- MORE REFLECTIVE. Our patented trim can be spotted from further away than other belts. 

- WARRANTIED FOR A LIFETIME. We offer an unparalleled return or replacement guarantee! 

Stay hydrated, the simple comfortable way with the best of the hydration belts.

Hand Exercise & Stress Relief Ball






I don't so much need to exercise my hand but having a stress ball around the home is good for everyone. I know when I am really stressed because either I will chew my nails off or I will clench my fists which leaves nail marks in my hands if I still have nails, so having a stress ball is a real reliever.

Our family has been under stress so I am down to 4 nails left on my fingers and this ball couldn't have come at a better time. Now to regrow my nails and put this stress ball to use.

This is a nice size ball, not too big for my hands and not too small for my husbands hands. Great resistance with just enough give.

This Stress/ exercise ball can be found on Amazon.


What KohFit has to say about their product.
