Marriott Launches Wellness Program to Borrow Workout Gear at Select Westin Hotels & Resorts

Now travelers can pack lighter if they’re staying at certain Westin properties. Guests can have access to high-tech recovery and strength training equipment in the hotel’s wellness initiative.

The “WestinWORKOUT Gear Lending” program will have a library of kits allowing guests to borrow the equipment they need to stay in shape while traveling.

A couple of options are available one being the Sculpt & Flow Kit by Bala, which includes full body workout essentials such as bangle weights, resistance bands, balance blocks, and a Westin branded yoga mat.

“Bala was started to make working out feel a bit less like work; to design products as fun as they are functional, said Maximilian Kislevitz, Co-Founder of Bala said in a release. “The Sculpt & Flow Kit by Bala within the WestinWORKOUT Gear Lending program is a dream come true, and we’re elated to help Westin guests keep up with their routines while on the road.”

Another option to relieve tension is the Recover & Recharge Kit by Hyperice. This kit includes recovery gear such as the new Normatec Go, Hypervolt Go 2, and Hypersphere Mini.

“Our continued partnership with Westin Hotels & Resorts is the result of bringing two industry leading brands together to deliver the next wave of holistic hospitality,” added Jim Huether, CEO of Hyperice in the press release.

Guests who are partaking in the gear lending wellness program can request an exclusive promotional code to shop the products on the Bala and Hyperice websites.

More than 230 Westin properties globally are partaking in this wellness program with intentions to expand.
