Houston, Texas – WPK Enterprises LLC, the parent company of El Toro Training and pioneers of the revolutionary Speedwraps™ wearable weight technology, announced today that it has been formally recognized by Dance Recital Gifts as their Top Pick for Ankle Weights for Dancers (High-End Category).
The El Toro Speedwraps came in fourth based on its higher cost compared to the traditional ‘Sandbag’ style ankle weights of yesteryear.
El Toro Training™ has taken wearable weight and made it safe and efficient. Speedwraps is a proprietary evolution of ankle weights. This patent-pending product consists of an advanced fabric high compression wrap, coupled with ergonomic steel weight inserts. The product was designed specifically to replace the antiquated and dangerous traditional ankle weights that users are familiar with, which are still being used by millions of dancers around the world.
Now, at an ever-increasing pace, fitness instructors, yoga enthusiasts, performers, trainers, MMA athletes, and athletes in general, are switching to Speedwraps™ as a safer and more effective alternative.
When it comes to improving speed, strength, and agility, Speedwraps™ is the next-generation wearable weight technology, effectively making traditional ankle weights obsolete.
“Traditional ankle weights are bulky and loose-fitting and tend to shift and can cause discomfort, muscle strain or ligament and tendon damage due to specific and direct stress on the Achilles tendon. As such, it precluded the use of them for dynamic movement training as required in the dance world. The Global Ankle Weight Market will consume over 25M pairs/year by 2029. That equates to over a Billion dollars in annual sales revenue. El Toro Speedwraps are targeting the educated consumer in that space. Low Profile, secure, and not load-bearing on the Achilles tendon. It is the smarter, safer wearable weight system. A novel concept engineered to yield a proprietary product in what would seemingly be a small niche market,” said Joseph Scott, Managing Partner of El Toro Training
El Toro Training’s founders Eric Porter and Jason Kearns worked with athletic trainers, professional dancers, and a leading body device interface specialist, to design a wearable weight technology that is ergonomic.
Its contoured interchangeable steel weight insert system evenly distributes weight between the ankle and the knee. The proprietary design and graduating weight system make this product an absolute must-have for everyone who takes their fitness and safety seriously.
“Our wearable weight technology is currently being used by the best of the best Dance Studios and Dancers around the Globe and is rapidly becoming the go-to wearable weight product for fitness instructors. The National Association for Fitness Certification (NAFC) as well as other organizations are readily incorporating the product into their daily classes. Now with this new declaration of being named The Holy Grail of Ankle Weights, we are seeing a significant increase in sales across the board, and we had to ramp up manufacturing in advance of the 2021 Holiday Season. That’s a good problem to have and we are thrilled with the press and exposure it has generated,” said Jason Kearns Founding Partner of El Toro Training™.
Speedwraps™ is designed to not alter the users’ gait and eliminates any weight load on the Achilles Tendon, unlike traditional ankle weights. In addition to Dance and Fitness, the Physical Therapy industry is taking notice as well and incorporating the use of Speedwraps into the rehabilitation process for many patients.
