| Shape Ups from SKECHERS are designed to get you fit while you walk, work, shop, and more. Shape Ups have as much a place in your life as your boots, sandals, and dress casuals, and can retrain your muscles, helping you walk with a positive impact. Used properly, Shape Ups change the way you approach your daily activities. Used regularly, Shape Ups will enhance the way you feel and look; muscles get toned, calories are burned and your posture improves.
Three Reasons You Need Shape Ups: 1. Stronger You 2. Healthier You 3. Easy Exercise Routine Three Reasons You Want Them: 1. In Style 2. Portable Power 3. A Brand You Trust |
The design technology behind Shape Ups changes the way you walk.
As we move through our lives, we typically walk on hard surfaces, which places stress on our knee joints and lower back. People who are required to stand for their jobs feel the impact on their bodies the most, and don’t gain the benefits that come with all that activity.
The goal with Shape Ups was to simulate walking on soft ground. SKECHERS has turned hard surfaces into comfortable ground through revolutionary technology designed into the framework of the shoe. The core of this technology is in the dynamic rolling bottom, the soft foam insert under the heel, and the dual-density midsole. These three elements work together to give you the feeling of walking on sand or luxurious pile carpet--regardless of the actual surface. Walking on softer, uneven surfaces forces you to engage muscles not normally used when walking on hard ground. Not only does this strengthen your muscles, but it also increases blood flow and reduces the impact on your joints and lower back.
Designed to improve your life by changing the way you walk, Shape Ups feature a unique soft kinetic wedge insert and dynamic rolling bottom to simulate walking barefoot on a giving surface that gives such as sand. With the comfort of Shape Ups, you will feel your heel sink to the ground as you step, roll forward as your weight shifts to its center, and push off with your toes. This movement will result in stronger leg, buttock, back and abdominal muscles as you stabilize your steps.
Barefoot walking simulation on soft ground
Get in the Routine
1. Kick Back: Stand upright and place feet parallel and hip distance apart, balance centered. Roll your weight onto the back of the soft foam heel – hold for a count of five and then back to the center. Do not lock knees or tip backward. Stretches calf and hamstrings. Repeat 5 to 10 times.
2. Rock and Roll: Stand upright and place feet parallel and hip distance apart, balance centered. Roll your weight forward so you are balancing on the underside of your toes – hold for a count of two, then slowly rock back to the soft heel – hold for a count of two, and then back to your center of balance. Do not lock knees or tip backward. Stretches calf and hamstrings, warms up Achilles and ankles. Repeat 5 to 10 times.
3. Roll and Rock and Roll: Follow the Rock and Roll stretch, but alternate feet so one is rolling to the toes and one is rocking back. Repeat 5 to 6 times.
4. The Lean: Place your hands on a wall, parallel and slightly above your head. With one leg in front of the other and your arms forward, press with your palms as if you were leaning on the wall. Keep your back leg straight and your front foot on the floor, then bend the front leg and lean forward by moving your hips toward the wall. Hold for a count of five, then repeat on the other side. Stretches calf and Achilles. Repeat 5 to 6 times.
Not like MBTs
I tried these Skecher shapeups because they looked nice, skechers are known for being very comfortable, and the price was right.
They are also supposed to help align,support your posture easing pain according to a lot of reviews. I own a pair of MBT shoes that have changed my life as I have chronic pain in my back from spinal surgery. My MBTs took my pain from a 9 to a 2 on a scale of 1-10. However they cost an arm and a leg.
So I thought that I would give the Skecher version a go.
Not a good idea. I wore them around the house for about 20 minutes and found that they actually caused great pain in my back.
Now I also understand that my body is different then other people's bodies, which is why I gave them 2 stars. They felt very good on my feet until I walked around in them and my feet kept wanting to go inward, no support there. They are just missing that one layer of firmer rubber to stabilize them.
Hope this helps people not waste their time and energy, who are trying to save a buck and buy these shoes instead of the original MBTs.
Very Comfortable Shoes
I bought a pair of Skechers and I love them. I have worn orthodics for years and I wear nothing inside these shoes. They do change your balance a little but once you get used to them they feel great. I never had any kind of muscle soreness from wearing them. I wear them whenever I can. I have a black pair and a white pair so that I can wear them as much as possible. I have a soreness on my left foot on the bottom and I have seen two doctors and they did nothing that helped. These shoes are so comfortable I hardly notice it anymore. I highly recommend these shoes!
sketchers shape ups
These shoes are actually comfortable. I have a bulging disk at L3-S5 and a knee that i have had an arthroscopy on. It is much easier to walk in these shoes at a greater distance than I can in regular sneakers. Because I have a drop-foot on my right leg, the shape-ups allow my feet to roll from heel to toe with no effort. Regular sneakers do not offer this kind of support or comfort. I am all in.
I have seen some stores that have the shape-ups but only in a limited color and quantity. The sketchers web site is about more per pair and you pay a hefty shipping fee of about .
