The expanded REM-Fit collection, which stands for REST, ENERGIZE, MOTIVATE, is the latest development from greater Chicago-based bedding industry leader Protect-A-Bed. With products ranging from sleep and activity trackers to bedding and adjustable pillows and fitted sheets, REM-Fit helps active people recover from exercise to reach fitness goals and improve overall wellbeing.

"Whether they're marathon runners or weekend warriors, our key consumers know optimal health and performance requires exercise, good diet and quality sleep," said James Bell, CEO of Protect-A-Bed. "The REM-Fit Total Recharge Kit will help consumers of all activity levels rest better, improving their sleep quality and, ultimately, their overall wellbeing." 

The REM-Fit Total Recharge Kit includes the REM-Fit ENERGIZE Collection's 100 Series Waterproof Pillow Protectors and Waterproof Fitted Sheets, which feature innovative technologies that regulate body temperature during sleep and protect against allergens and dust mites, providing a rejuvenating sleep environment.

REM-Fit expands into sleep technology space with the REM-Fit Active.

In addition to bedding, the REM-Fit Total Recharge Kit also features the company's latest innovation, the REM-Fit Active 100 Series sleep and activity tracker. It uses a proprietary algorithm to let consumers monitor their movement, fitness and sleep throughout the day. The accompanying mobile apps connects REM-Fit Active users through a variety of groups, and it tracks:

• SleepPoints,
• ActivePoints,
• Daily steps,
• Distance walked,
• Calories burned, and
• Social Networks.

To uncover SleepPoints, the REM-Fit Active uses an exclusive equation to calculate restlessness, length and quality of sleep. The REM-Fit Active shows consumers the time slept in REM, Deep and Light sleep, a chart of their sleep patterns, and the number of SleepPoints earned. For most users, 300-400 SleepPoints indicates a good night's sleep.

"Fitness trackers allow us to monitor incremental progress, focusing on those accomplishments and milestones that keep us motivated," said Bell. "The REM-Fit Active is the natural evolution in wearable tech, particularly for those interested in a healthy, active and well-balanced lifestyle."

The REM-Fit Total Recharge Kit is available in bedding sizes (Twin – King) and retails for prices ranging from $89.99 to $109.99.
