These bands come in five resistance levels (X-Light, Light, Medium, Heavy and X-Heavy) if you're looking for a challenge while you're lunging or squatting.

Promising review: "These are a nice add-on to my exercise routine. I primarily use the black and red bands which are the most resistance. The two lightest bands offer almost no resistance at all. I use these bands during my squats and lunges, but I love using them to exercise while doing other things like house cleaning. Basically anything I'm doing now can become an exercise once I add a couple bands." — Heph N.

Promising review: "Nothing has been helping. From running to walking uphill both ways to work (yes, this is possible) to wearing heels all day, my calves were tight. Nothing has been working. This roller was a godsend. I actually have more mobility after using it than traditional stretching, and I think there was a knot in each calf that it worked out. This is a must-have." — Raven

Promising review: "I received my Activ5 a few weeks ago and I have been using it regularly at work, home and when traveling. I try to make it in to the gym at least two to three times per week, but this is a great supplemental way to get a quick workout in when I can't get to the gym. The games are entertaining and the workouts are approachable but challenging. It's working out muscle groups I have neglected before!" — Dan B.

Get this towel, you won't be disappointed." — Amazon Customer

Promising review: "I wasn't sure what to expect, especially when I saw that I'd have to inflate this ball with a straw. It was remarkably easy to inflate (although it took a few tries to seal it without too much air escaping). It has the same look and feel of the Pilates ball that's used in the studio. It comes with a 'cheat sheet' and I do about 75% of the exercises. A nice addition to my home exercise routine." — EVGreen

It's incredibly easy to use and to adjust." — Cersar

Get it from Amazon for $129.95.

They each have a heel tab design and are made with breathable material. You can go the distance rather than deal with stinky, sweaty and irritated feet while you run.

Promising review: "So you know that problem when your running socks slouch below your shoe, and WHAM! Blister. This does not happen with these socks. That little tabby-thing in the back is amazing for preventing sock slippage and these are awesome. They're not too heavy (which is great—dude, I hate bulky socks!), but they're hefty enough that you don't feel like you're going to put a hole in the sock after the first few runs. I'm crazy prone to blisters, and these are perfect." — Amy
