We are dedicating the month of April to recovery and to kick it off we are sharing our favorite recovery tools.
1 - The Stick - hurts so good. Great travel companion for long distance races.
2 - Trigger Point Foam Roller - the grids add a new dimension to foam rolling. Your IT band will never be the same again!
3 - MELT balls - we discovered the MELT Method thanks to Zoe of The Thriving Body in 2010. It's helped our feet and legs recovery quickly and ward off injury.
4 - Trigger Point rollers - deeper and more precise than the foam roller. The kit comes with a guidebook designed specifically for runners.
5 - Exercise bands - these guys help us keep our muscles strong and flexible. We use them for ankle, achilles and calf strength.
What's your favorite recovery tool? We love hearing suggestions from runners and active people!
