The Smovey is not simply a weight that you swing as you walk – this clever little device contains steel balls that move when you do and this has THREE amazing effects. First it increases your range of movement and secondly, it provides resistance which makes the Smovey feel heavier at some points as you swing it – and if that’s not enough….the Smovey also VIBRATES with every swing which increases the toning and energising effects.
With Smovey, many exercises are possible that help to strengthen the muscles, mobilise the joints, increase coordination and stabilisation and increase the heart rate. The Smovey is the must-have exercise tool.
