What are EasyTone Shoes

EasyTone Shoes have sparked interest almost everywhere, like the new sneaker from Reebok. Can a shoe or sneaker really tone a persons legs and butt?

The sole of the easytone shoes has been designed with balance pods built-in, this was inspired by the apparatus called the balance ball which is seen at most gymnasiums or fitness centres.  By developing a barely visible level of micro unsteadiness or instability, directly in the sole, the easy tone will cause the muscles in a persons calves, hamstrings, and glutes to respond in order to maintain their balance. At the same time, the softness of the pods brings about a reaction in the lower body that, in a way is similar to walking on sand.

Are the EasyTone Shoes / Seekers strange to walk in?

There is a noticeable distinction between easytone shoes and your usual sneakers when you first put them on. But after you have taken a few steps in them, you will most likely fall in love with the soft yet bouncy sole and the supple, mesh material of the upper shoe. In spite of the component of micro unsteadiness that makes the shoes work, Reebok have confirmed that the shoe doesn’t bring about stress to the ankle when walking.

How does the muscle react when compared to a normal shoe and how do the EasyTone Shoes compare to a normal sneaker?

Tests have shown that the Reebok EasyTone Shoes will provide around 28% more muscle activation within the glutes and around 11% more muscle activation within the hamstrings and calves, this is significantly more that the standard performance shoe.

If this shoe or sneaker is worn and no exercise is partaken, would visible effects be noticeable on the body of the user?

The easy tone shoes are walking shoes, they were designed with thoughts towards general errands and every day activities, however they could also be taken along to the gym as an addition to a persons workout.  Remember that the Reebok EasyTone isn’t a running shoe. If a person takes the 10,000 steps per day advised, they will be happy that they decided to wear their EasyTone Shoes.
