Fitness First Mel B Balance Board Step Riser

FOR IMMEDIATE DISTRIBUTION

BLAZE team up with Mel B and Fitness First to bring new Wii Fit accessories to the Nintendo Wii

Doncaster, UK – 20/08/2010–

Leading video game accessory manufacturer BLAZE is pleased to announce the latest Fitness First licensed product. Endorsed by healthy lifestyle advocate and global superstar Mel B, the Wii Fitness first Balance Board riser adds another level to your Wii workout.

Perfectly designed to sit securely under your balance board, the BLAZE Step riser adds just over four inches to the overall height of the board, bringing it up to the standard step aerobics height, therefore helping you get the very most from your exercise sessions. The added height enables you to work yourself harder when stepping on and off the balance board, bringing you quicker results.

The sturdy base feels secure and rock steady when in use, with rubber feet to give optimum grip on any surface, giving you the confidence to give it your all and maximize your exercise session.

Also included in the pack is a voucher entitling you to a 5 day free trial in your local Fitness First health club and gym, giving you the professional instruction and motivation you need to be successful with your fitness regime.

The BLAZE Fitness First Mel B Step riser will be available in October 2010 and can be purchased from www.blazeeurope.com and leading video games stores for the low price of £14.99
