Injury prevention and recovery

Running recovery products

Running injury-free starts with the right products and proper self-care. Our collection includes brands like Nike, BLACKROLL, IcePower, and Born. These brands offer useful injury prevention products such as cooling gels, hot gels, foam rollers, tape, massage balls, and resistance bands. These recovery tools help you prevent injuries and recover faster after a tough training session.

Hot and cooling gels: quick relief for sore muscles

Hot gels and cooling gels are perfect for supporting your muscles before or after running. A cooling gel, such as those by IcePower, provides instant relief in cases of overuse, cramps, or swelling. It helps reduce pain and speeds up recovery. Hot gels provide warmth, which stimulates blood circulation and helps to relax stiff muscles. Use a hot gel before your training to warm up your muscles, or afterward to help them relax.

Foam rollers and tape for muscle flexibility and support

A foam roller is an essential tool for every runner. Regular foam rolling loosens up the muscles, improves blood circulation, and reduces the risk of injury during running. Foam rollers from brands like BLACKROLL are firm, durable, and suitable for both beginner and experienced runners. Tape is useful when you need extra support for areas like your knee or ankle. Sports tape helps protect weak spots and prevents strain.

Massage balls and resistance bands

Massage balls are perfect for working out small muscle knots, for example in your feet or shoulders. They are easy to carry and ideal for targeted massage after running. Resistance bands are great for strength training and stretching exercises. They help build stronger muscles and contribute to injury prevention and faster recovery.

How to prevent a running injury

Injury prevention starts with a good warm-up. Always take the time to gently warm up your muscles before you start running. Wear running shoes that match your feet and running style. Alternate intense workouts with rest days and do some light stretching after your run. Pay attention to your body and use recovery tools like foam rollers, cooling gels, and massage balls to keep your muscles flexible. Also, make sure to rehydrate properly after a running session.

Extra tips for injury-free running

• Build up your training gradually and do not increase your distance or speed too quickly.
• Stay hydrated and eat healthily for optimal recovery.
• Use a foam roller or massage ball regularly to prevent stiff muscles.
• Always consult a specialist if symptoms persist.

With the right injury prevention and recovery products, you stay fit, avoid injuries, and enjoy every run even more!
