Worst Exercise Ever?
|
|
The "plank." (ie., holding your body in a fixed horizontal position, just your toes and forearms touching the ground). Stuart McGill, PhD states that a sustained contraction of the long thin muscles of the back can rapidly deplete these muscle cells of oxygen. Depleting cells of their oxygen supply is never a good thing!

| Description:
|
Minnesota-based Ergodyne makes a variety of "keep cool" products. The Chill-Its 6602 is a towel to keep you cool. Size is 13-inches x 30-inches. Available in 5 colors: blue, gray, lime green, hot orange, and pink.
|
| How It Works:
|
Soak it with water, wring it out, and wrap it around your neck or over your head. The fabric holds more water than non-technical fabrics, thus, allowing it to evaporate over a longer period of time. In August 2013, Consumer Reports compared Chill-Its Cooling Towel to Mission's EnduraCool Cooling Towel: the Chill-Its towel held about twice the water and was effective longer.
|
| Ideal For:
|
Anyone who exercises when it's hot outside!

| Why It's Cool:

That's exactly what this towel is designed to do! (Pun intended!)
