Wraps and pumps

There are miracle fat pills that promise amazing results, and creams, wraps, pumps, potions and patches that will help to melt away your body fat and reduce inches.

I understand that "wraps" is something for wrapping your body, probably a foil.

What about "pumps", are these just shoes for running?

No, it's not the shoes meaning, Google says that there is a form of exercise called 'Body Pump', but I don't think that is the meaning here. The term 'pump' here is part of a list of physical objects, so it sounds like it means perhaps an actual pump. com/medical/pump But I've never heard of a fat pump.
