Posted on by

The WOW Team now offers foam rollers, resistance bands, and other items for sale. This is really new and we're excited to offer quality products to our readers. You will need to order these products online as WOW has no in-house inventory. Thank you!

WOW is working with Perform Better to sell exercies products that Coach Stephanie uses with her personal training clients and boot camps.

First recommendation:
Eva Foam Rollers - We recommend the 36", 3 foot version ($39.95) They're not too expensive and the longer type has more options.

Second recommendation:
The Stick ($19.95) You don't necessarily need both of these items but, if you have a little extra cash, I think they're both good to have on hand. The stick is smaller and gets into those little areas like your soleus and under your foot where the big rollers can't reach easily due to their size.

No longer running but love to walk...

WOW Women Love to Walk - With Strollers, Dogs, or Walking Sticks!

Hi Coach Stephanie - I saw your post to Yanicke and I'm curious about your workouts. I am no longer running, but love to walk. Am not training for marathons.

My questions:

  • Can I bring my 18 month old toddler with me in a stroller (I'm a solo mom)?
  • What do your workouts consist of? I saw the details of an intermediate workout: "10 min warm-up, 6 X 800 hard with 1:30 RI, 10 min. cool-down, stretch"- what does that mean for someone who is walking?
  • Do you have regular workouts that are nearby?

    • I see you're at the Berkeley Marina - Thank you! K. in Berkeley
