Five new reasons to sweat

continued from page 1

4. Conserve your air
   Sometimes it’s the little things in life that can make or break your day. You might be toting the most up-to-the-minute racquet and sporting the finest designer whites, but if your tennis balls are dead you’ll never ace the game. The Tennis Ball Saver (£9) by sweatband.com is a special canister with a built-in ring around the rim. As you screw on the top, the ring provides a seal and the canister stays pressurised. The result? Your tennis balls don’t leak air as quickly as they would if stored in a regular container and – of course – you’re one step closer to perfecting that killer serve. To order, log onto www.sweatband.com or ring 0207 247 1172.

5. Have a stretch
   Next time you do the downward dog in a yoga class, give yourself some room to roam. Soma the Firm’s Extra Wide Luxury Yoga Mat (£18) fits the bill at 66cm wide, 6cm wider than the typical mat. It’s also thicker than other mats, which makes it super-grippable on hardwood or carpet floors. And the soft, calming aqua colour will help you breathe your way to mind-body bliss. To order, click on www.somathefirm.com, or ring 0131 551 6149.
