MARIETTA, GA -- (MARKET WIRE) -- 11/21/06 -- It's one of those certainties of the holiday
season, right along eggnog and tinsel -- a few extra pounds. But this year
a pair of shoes might help tip the scales in the other direction.
The Chung Shi Balance Step shoe has a unique patented design which makes
walking and running more dynamic. "The shoes encourage a more stable,
natural step which strengthens the back and pelvis muscles, encouraging hip
and thigh muscles to work harder and burn more calories," explains Ray
Margiano, Founder and President of Foot Solutions, the exclusive retailer
for the shoe in the U.S. "It's like a Pilates class in a shoe."
Chung Shi shoes have a curved sole that angles at 15 or 20 degrees, and
combined with a roller bar at midpoint in the shoe, helps improve posture
and muscle toning. "The result is less stress, wear and tear," adds
Margiano. "Core muscles are engaged, creating a stronger, more stable body.
Posture, circulation and respiration are all enhanced. You burn more
calories and your muscles see improved toning."
So do they really work? Sue Bozgoz, a retired U.S. Army Officer, All-Army
marathoner and track coach, is a convert. "I'm a naturally active person,
and keep in good shape," says Bozgoz. "I noticed a difference right away.
My posture was better, and I could feel the impact wearing the shoes had
along my legs. And it's great because I'm getting the benefits while doing
everyday walking, from running errands to walking the track training my
clients."
Pass the pumpkin pie.
