9Round Fitness, the world’s largest kickboxing chain, is partnering with the world’s largest retailer, Walmart, to offer a new collection of boxing equipment. Currently available at the Walmart website and in 600 Walmart stores nationwide, buyers can now jab and cross in confidence with 9Round branded gloves, mitts, wraps and a reflex bag.
The rollout comes at a time when fitness equipment purchases are skyrocketing since the onset of the coronavirus pandemic. According to a Yelp report, consumer interest in fitness and exercise equipment is up by 437 percent since March 10th.
“The future of fitness is a hybrid model of people working out both in the gym and at home and this equipment rollout in Walmart stores is our way of supporting that trend as well introducing more people to the 9Round workout model,” said Shannon Hudson, Founder and CEO of 9Round. “Now more than ever, people are turning to exercise to reduce stress and anxiety during these turbulent times and, whether in-home or at one of our studios, the right equipment can enhance a workout tenfold. These products are designed for all skill levels with a focus on quality and fit.”
