"The Power Poles have been a great addition to the Bannockburn Clubs group exercise program. The workout options are endless: Adding various equipment options you can get a great total body workout. The Power Poles can be integrated into all types of classes.

The Power Poles are also a great option for participants who may not have the muscular strength or stability to perform the lunge correctly. The Power Poles have helped many students gain the confidence and strength to do so.

Our members have enjoyed the variety of the different versions and the intensity of the workout that can be done with the Power Poles. The Power Pole Program has brought in many new members to group exercise who may not have taken classes before. The instructors enjoy using this product because of the variety and the ability to teach to all levels of fitness. A great product that everyone needs to try."

"I have found the Power Poles to be an extremely versatile addition to all of my class formats. Of course in muscle conditioning classes the poles incorporate beautifully. They provide challenge for the advanced participant while providing support for those who are less conditioned, have special needs or injury concerns. What I have found to be the most creative and fun use of the poles has been in my dance step class. I have been able to blend my dance inspired step choreography with athletic lunge pole sequences to create an exciting and challenging mix. Overall the Power Poles are an excellent addition to any group exercise program and valuable tool for personal trainers as well."

"The Power Poles give my clients the confidence, and support to perform exercises requiring kinesthetic awareness that may otherwise be beyond their confidence level and/or ability. Not only are the Power Poles useful in-group training, but also they are useful in personal training. Many personal trainers use the poles to teach their clients functional exercises such as lunging.

I use the Power Poles everyday with my clients. The majority of my clients need something to give them not only support but also the confidence do many functional exercises, such as lunging. The poles enable my clients to progress safely and quickly, whereas without the poles they might not feel comfortable enough to try an exercise as challenging as a lunge."

"The Wright Workout™ Power Pole Program has been a new and exciting program for my clients. My female clients love the results they have seen in the butt, hip, and thigh areas. My male clients love how it targets all the muscles in the lower body. I have used the Power Poles in many different classes such as Strength/Tone, Boot Camp, and Total Body Workouts. Renee’s videos have been an excellent tool in learning and creating unique routines for classes. I have also had the opportunity to use the Power Poles with individual clients, one-on-one personal training.

Overall the results have been weight loss, loss of inches, increased endurance, increased strength, toning and firming, and increased balance. Personally, my results have been all of the above and that is why I am so passionate about sharing the Wright Workout™ Power Pole Program because it truly works! As a fitness competitor and marathon runner it has helped me reach amazing fitness levels. Renee Wright has created a very professional and effective workout program."

"I personally love the Power Pole class so much that I hope to add more in the near future. The hour flew right by and we got a great response from the guests, not only in numbers, but what a fantastic over-all workout the Power Poles were able to provide. The lunge series was well received, as most in attendance have never been able to do them before or appreciate their benefits. We also used the Total Body Workout Bag to full advantage. The upper and lower body got a complete workout and it was FUN!

The Power Pole classes continue to go over VERY big at the Door. We started offering them only on Wedensday, but word of mouth gets around and we end up doing it again on Friday.

Bottom Line: FUN!

Thanks again for a Fantastic Power Pole Training Seminar."

"Renee came into our fitness and wellness-based resort and introduced her exciting product, The Wright Workout™ Power Poles. Within one day of arriving, her classes were packed and participants continued to talk about the great workout they had received. What I personally enjoyed about Renee was her energy and willingness to chat with every guest about their exercise goals and concerns. She never stopped! One can tell that she truly loves this business.

As a result of the week she was here, we are now offering “Power Pole” classes regularly on our schedule and are proud to be the first Caribbean Island to do so. Our resort instructors are thrilled to have a new exciting product that gives participants of all levels and ages, a fantastic total body workout!"

"What a great workout aid! I see such a difference in the posture of the participants when using the poles to perform lower body conditioning exercises. The Power Poles are great for those participants with low-back problems it also makes you focus on keeping your abs contracted and your ribcage lifted. The Power Pole workout is not only for the intense fitness veteran who is looking for a challenging lower body workout, but what a great aid for those special populations who may not have the muscle stability to safely perform most standing leg work.

As an instructor, I'm thrilled with the product. I can see many ways to incorporate it into a class program. Now as a participant, I thoroughly enjoyed the workout, never got bored. We went through everything from ballet-type movements to Karate and boxing movements. What I enjoyed the most was that I felt as though I was doing Pilate's-type movements vertically, but having much more fun with the added bonus of having music to move to and extra work placed on stabilizing muscles for balancing."

”I attended the Power Pole workouts for the first time at the Golden Door/California and loved the Power Pole classes. Not only did I feel "it" working in the right places but I never had so much fun while working out. Working out with the poles helps with balance while lunging and reduces potential injury. I now have a set of Power Poles along with the Total Body Workout bag and all three videos. Its a great workout for the whole body.”

“What a great workout for dancers and everyone who wants that long, lean dancer look! Power Pole workouts compliment dance training by developing core strength, maintaining flexibility, and improving balance and coordination. All levels of dancers can benefit from Power Pole workouts. As a professional dancer and choreographer, I find the Power Poles extremely helpful. Dancing is stressful on the body, and many professional dancers experience serious injuries during their career. The Power Poles help minimize the stress caused by years of dancing because they provide the support necessary to maintain ideal posture while performing dance moves.

The Power Poles Power Pole workouts are a fun way to stay in shape and maintain that long, lean dancer body!”

Lake Forest, IL

"I was 3 months pregnant when I began Renee Wright's Power Pole Training classes. I had been working out regularly for about a year and I wanted a workout that would help me maintain my fitness level as long as possible. The "Power Poles" were PERFECT! The Poles provided me with the stability I needed as my baby weight increased and my center of gravity shifted. The "Power Poles" allowed me to surpass my initial fitness level even though my pregnancy was limiting my agility and balance. I worked out with the "Power Poles" three days before I delivered an 8 1/2-lb. baby girl -- two weeks past my due date!

Jody H.
Highland Park, IL

"I am a woman in her mid 40's who for many years has had a high pressure job sat behind a desk, worked out very infrequently with an hour glass figure. Consciously using the program has produced dramatic results; not only to reshape my body image but also to increase my energy level to better handle life's daily pressures.

Working with the "Power Poles" has helped me to improve my core balance as well as strengthen my muscle tone through various lunging techniques, thus slimming down my lower body and improving my overall body posture. In fact, I am very proud that I have gone down from a clothing size 12 to a size 8 and still can enjoy my hot fudge sundaes! I don't think I could have been as successful if The Wright Workout™ wasn't upbeat, high energy, hard work and a lot of FUN! I'm glad it is, and thank you, Renee!"

Maureen P.
Highland Park, IL

"When I began the Wright Workout™ Power Pole program it was just a lot of fun. I’d feel good about myself and enjoy the company of the others in the group while having great time. Then I became pregnant and unlike before with my previous pregnancies, I was able to work out the entire pregnancy because of the Power Poles. Renee was very careful as to not let me do anything that would be harmful to my baby or me. While being pregnant my balance became off with the extra weight gain, the Power Poles were very helpful in maintaining good posture and balance!

Thanks to the Power Poles my delivery was a breeze! In fact one of the nurses suggested that I be a Poster person for the hospital. It’s just been six months since my baby was born and I’m back in my jeans and I’ve lost 30 lbs.

Thanks to Renee and the Power Pole Program."
