I play tennis almost every day, which makes recovery a priority. This could be a game-changer. Here is my Reboots Go Lite Review.
Reboots focus on recovery technology, and the Go Lite is a travel-ready kit for both arms and legs. I use both regularly when I am a little sore.
The Reboots Go Lite works as compression massage with flow technology and 4 overlapping chambers. You can charge the compressor and it lasts around 1.5 hours.
Another benefit is that you can control the compressor and choose different programs with the Reboots app. So after a day full of tennis and maybe a HIIT program, I lay down in my sofa, put on the Reboots pants and do the Intense Pulse program.
If my shoulders or elbows need a massage, I sit down and do that instead. The battery seems fine for 2 to 3 30-minute programs. Of course, you can keep it plugged into the wall socket, but it is nice that it is portable.
Reboots offer not only compression massage products but cold therapy and other recovery methods.
How does it work?
I quote from the Reboots website:
Intensive running training leads to small tears as well as metabolic waste within our muscles and cells. The result: stiff, tired muscles, which often result in strains, overuse injuries, and damage. To repair the damaged fibers, the body enhances blood circulation to improve the supply of nutrients and oxygen. The compression massages provided by our Reboots can support this natural process, shorten the regeneration time, and thus reduce the risk of injuries.
A scientific study has confirmed that our neuromuscular system (NMS) recovers faster when using our massage programs than a passive recovery process. Given the critical role that the NMS plays in the coordination and resilience of our muscles, it can be concluded that, for instance, a 45-minute air compression massage allows athletes to return to a training-ready state more quickly.
You can check the Reboots website for their research on recovery. In short, it shows that compression massage devices effectively accelerate the regeneration of neuromuscular fatigue.
I am going to lie down and get some compression massage for my stiff legs.
Reboots Go Lite (or similar products in their range) is recommended!
