Revolutionary Training with the World’s 1st Barefoot Training Shoe



New Delhi, December 6th 2011/PRNewswire/ - adidas today unveiled the new adipure Trainer in India, the first barefoot training shoe designed specifically for the gym. Promoting pure and natural movement by harnessing the body’s natural mechanics, the adipure Trainer activates and strengthens muscles, builds balance and promotes dexter-ity.



The adiPure Trainer has been developed by combining the benefits of barefoot training with path breaking design innovations to activate and strengthen muscles in the lower body. Unlike regular training footwear, the minimalistic design of the adiPure Trainer allows unrestricted natural motion and builds balance, foot strength and dexterity preventing chances of injury in the long run.

"A lot of engineering went into making your foot a high performance machine," said Mark Verstegen, founder of Athletes' Performance who helped design the shoe. "To achieve your full potential during a workout, focus on how your foot interacts with the ground in the same way you think about how your hand interacts with a ball or a bat. Using your foot’s natural power and movement will help you strengthen muscles you never knew you had in your feet, lower legs and throughout your core."

Talking about the shoe he has been using for almost 3 weeks now Indian cricketer and adidas athlete Suresh Raina said, "When I tested out the adipure I could immediately feel the muscles in my feet and legs were getting a different kind of workout. For a sport like cricket, lower body strength and balance is extremely important and the adiPure Trainer works the muscles in the lower body like a song. We have a crucial Tour to Australia coming up and every improvement in my training regimen to better prepare for the season will pay off on the field."

Talking about the adiPure Trainer, Tushar Goculdas, Brand Director adidas India said, “Be it on the field of play or in the gym, our feet absorb a lot of impact while we are on the move. The adiPure Trainer is built to strengthen leg muscles and provide stability and flexibility to our feet. Every design element, right from the flexible outsole to the EVA mid sole comes together to provide the ultimate training experience. Inspired from the effectiveness of barefoot training, but created with pioneering footwear technology, this shoe will transform the way we train and help outper-form."

The adiPure Trainer is priced at Rs. 4,999 and is available in 2 colors for men and 1 color for women. It will be retailed across at all adidas Sports Performance outlets in the country.

Terrorist Attacks on America Before Osama Bin Laden Was Born : 1920 -2005.

This is a record of all terrorist attacks in America and in countries with American interests and on American Embassies and citizens abroad. Osama bin Laden did not create the demons of terrorism. He is only one of the most diabolical and destructive of them all. The devil is the author of Terrorism in his capacity as the Son of Perdition and the father of chaos. It is very important to clarify these issues for the benefit of those who are ignorant and naive and have been jumping to erroneous conclusions. Terrorist Attacks (within the United States or against Americans abroad) 1920: septa. 16, New York City: TNT bomb planted in unattended horse-drawn wagon exploded on Wall Street opposite House of Morgan , killing 35 people and injuring hundreds more. Bolshevist or anarchist terrorists believed responsible, but crime never solved. 1975 Jan. 24, New York City: bomb set off in historic Fraunces Tavern killed 4 and injured more than 50 people.

Let Us Talk To Boko Haram - Nigerian Professor

A Commentary Direct Talk and Psychological Accessibility to the Boko Haram Group Is worth the Trial in Nigeria It is now obvious that the nation is now fully plagued by terrorism which is so widespread and monumental that it is hard to unravel. At a time when the Nigerian air is filled with the festivities of Eid al-Adha, the feast of sacrifice, which in a supposed way should involve the slaughter sheep and cattle, and not the near-sacrifice of a son, as in Abraham’s case, but the reverse is the case.Human slaughter is in our face on a daily basis in Nigeria due to the Boko Haram wrath. Violence in Nigeria, a country of more than 150 million with an almost equal split between the Christian south and the Muslim north is affecting public safety and national security. Nothing appears to be stopping the inflammable and untamed-able torment, fear and worry across the country. There appears to be a legitimate state of distress nationally, and the cause of the state of distress is growing d...
