Foam rollers 


A foam foller proves it worth before, but also after training sessions. By doing just a few exercices using the roll, you warm up your muscles and thus protect them against injuries. After running, a foam roller removes waste products for a better recovery. That way, you prevent soreness. 

 

Recovery devices 


Do you prefer something easier to recover than a foam roller? Recovery devices are the way to go! Think of a massage gun. Or the massage sleeves, that you simply put on your legs to give an effective massage to your muscles and to stimulate blood circulation. The products of Hyperice of Therabody are qualitative and offer a proven effect on your muscles.
