BALAZS BOXING PRESS RELEASE

ALLENTOWN, PA; August 21, 2001 - The Balazs Universal Boxing Stand (UBS) is the boxing stand of choice for fitness professionals and consumers who demand the best. The Balazs Universal Boxing Stand, the only commercial-grade boxing stand available, is ideal for health clubs and fitness centers wanting to add diversity to their assortment of workout equipment. In addition, the UBS is perfect for the individual needing a stable bag stand that is sturdy enough for her boxing workouts.

The modular design of the UBS allows it to be configured with many different combinations of attachments. Add a heavy bag, a speed bag, a pull-up bar or a double-end striking bag to any of the four sides of the UBS.

Unlike other stands on the market, the UBS does not require additional weights, floor mounting, or a room-dominating footprint to keep it from falling over. The heavy-gauge steel structure provides uncompromising performance in heavy-use applications, and all but eliminates the noise and jarring typically associated with home workouts.

With new fitness attachments in the works, and the ease of adding a new module, the UBS will be the only fitness equipment needed for home users, and the only boxing equipment for gyms.

Balazs sells its top of the line boxing gear to individuals, health clubs and retailers. Located in Allentown, Pa, Balazs Boxing has hit the market as the premier designer and manufacturer of commercial-grade boxing equipment, with customers in over 100 countries.
