In an era dominated by digital screens, a veteran-owned company is making waves with an innovative approach to outdoor play. SwingSesh, founded by U.S. Marine fighter pilot Brad Leeman and his wife Naomi, a Harvard-trained urban designer, has introduced a line of fitness playsets that blend the joy of playgrounds with the rigor of a workout station. This creative fusion aims to tackle the alarming trend of physical inactivity among Americans.
According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), only about 23% of adults meet the guidelines for both aerobic and muscle-strengthening activities. For children, the numbers are equally concerning, with recent data suggesting that less than 24% of children 6 to 17 years of age participate in 60 minutes of physical activity every day. SwingSesh's solution? A playset that appeals to both children and adults, making physical activity a family affair.
The flagship SwingSesh model integrates traditional play elements like swings, slides, and monkey bars with fitness staples such as pull-up bars, dip bars, and a squat rack. This design not only encourages children to play but also entices adults to join in, promoting shared physical activity.
Moreover, for those seeking more robust workout options, the SuperSesh model expands the possibilities with features like a squat rack, a 15-ft climbing rope, and a landmine, paired with thrilling play features like a long slide and extended monkey bars. The SlimSesh version caters to families with smaller spaces, ensuring that everyone has the chance to enjoy the benefits of outdoor physical activity, regardless of their backyard size.
As the company continues to innovate and expand its product line, it remains dedicated to its vision of transforming backyards into spaces of fun and fitness that is inclusive of the entire family. They're not just selling playsets; they're promoting a lifestyle of health, fun, and family togetherness.
