HandleBuddies™ Your Protection From Infection™

HANDLEBUDDIES  - THE SMART CHOICE FOR THE SMART GYM USER!

 

HandleBuddies™ are sanitary handle/hand grip covers for fitness equipment. If you work out at a gym or health club, at some point you likely have had to touch and use equipment that someone just before you has left covered in their sweat and even other bodily fluids. Germs that live and thrive on our skin pour off of us as we sweat. Unfortunately, just wiping away the sweat/fluids does not kill the germs and bacteria that are transferred to the surface of the equipment.

 
Did you know that these surfaces can contain a variety of bacteria and germs, from the common cold and flu, to e-coli (found in human feces), to candida (causes yeast infections), to much, much worse?

 
 

Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus, or MRSA, is a potentially lethal strain of staph infection that is resistant to penicillin and other antibiotics. Once confined to hospitals, it is becoming increasingly common in gyms, where people are in close contact and hygiene is often lacking. An MRSA infection can be not only debilitating, but also fatal in its most severe form.

PROTECTING YOURSELF FROM THESE "GYM GERMS" REQUIRES MORE THAN JUST WASHING YOUR HANDS!

  • They eliminate direct skin-to-surface contact between your hands and the equipment being used. That's superior protection to absorbent towels, "fingerless" gloves, and unreliable sanitizers!
     

  • They are made from a lightweight, durable, non-absorbent, and non-porous material for maximum protection and comfort.
     

  • Two different sizes give you the flexibility and usefulness you need, and the Velcro fasteners allow for a quick and custom fit.
     

  • The carrying pouch (with removable belt) may be worn around the waist, keeping your HandleBuddies™ handy and your workout pace efficient and hassle-free!
