SPRINGBOOST BENEFITS

How does Springboost improve posture

Springboost is not just another range of exercise shoes. The innovative sole design forces the wearer into a more upright stance (which improves posture) plus it stretches the legs even when walking to improve muscle tone and help trim and tone. Posture improvement is highly desirable in that it imparts health benefits to the wearer. It is this combination of toning and posture benefits that makes Springboost special.

Can Springboost help with health problems

The health benefits of Springboost are similar to those of other leading brands of posture shoes, in that they have been reported by customers to improve conditions such as joint, back, leg or knee problems (seek medical advice before buying Springboost if you have existing health problems). Improving posture reduces the stress on the back and joints, this is increasingly recognised to be a serious health benefit of specialised brands of trainer like Springboost exercise shoes. It is widely publicised for example that stooping at only 4 degress due to poor posture increases the stress on the lower back by a massive 25%. Posture trainers are relatively new to the UK but are gathering ground as medical professionals exhort the benefits of improved posture on bodies used to walking on hard, unyielding concrete pavements !

How can Springboost help me lose weight

The stretching effect of Springboost fitness shoes increases blood circulation in the legs and lower body, resulting in more calories burnt just by walking. When active, this effect is pronounced, such that after only weeks the legs look and feel visibly more toned with inches trimmed from even the most stubborn body areas. This toning has a cellulite busting component to it, so fat reduction is a real promise of wearing Springboost toning shoes. The degree of weight loss is naturally quite gentle, which is good for the body. You will tend to limit how hard you train since your legs will have to learn to cope with the stretching of the hamstrings in the first few weeks. Banishing cellulite with just a shoe may seem an extravagant claim but with Springboost this is no idle boast ! Once weight loss becomes noticeable, this has a positive influence on fitness, since carrying a few less pounds gives you more energy to increase your training or walking regime.

Can I wear custom orthotics with Springboost

Unfortunately not, since the footbed insoles in Springboost shoes are moulded to a perfect fit, wheras other insoles will not properly and may even negate the positive benefits of the natural uphill incline walking position of the shoes. You may find that you do not need custom orthotics once you have tried Springboost sports shoes, since the insoles give excellent levels of support under the arch, at the back of the foot plus around the toebox area, although if you are under the advice of a medical professional you should always seek advice before dispensing with custom orthotics in favour of any particular shoe brand for your own safety.
