The CanDo Slim WaTE Weighted Exercise Bars are the tool you need and want in therapy, fitness, aerobics, yoga and Pilates to increase strength and range-of-motion. They also work well to improve endurance, balance and motor skills. Including weighted bars in an exercise routine burns calories, increases balance and improves flexibility. So versatile, the WaTE bars can be used in a supine, sitting or standing position. Additionally, the bars are a terrific addition to circuit and interval classes, kickboxing, martial arts, weightlifting and aerobics. Including a WaTE Bar freshens up and enhances the benefits of "traditional" exercises such as sit-ups, push-ups, squats, lunges, overhead presses and curls. Even jogging and power walking workouts will benefit. With a 1.5" diameter and 36" long, these are easy to grip, use, clean and store.
