"It's important to grab a pre and post workout stretch to loosen up the muscles, that's why I'm thankful for The Travel Stick ®. I played a ton of soccer in college and one thing I always had trouble with was getting a good stretch before and after practice or games. The Travel Stick® is like having an extra pair of hands that's specifically designed to reduce soreness by working out the lactic acid by simultaneously compressing and stretching muscles. The Travel Stick® is made of a plastic (no rubber or wood) that maintains flexibility. Its center rod is surrounded by eight spindles that roll independently over the muscle, allowing users to rapidly prepare muscles for physical activity and accelerate muscle recovery. This device is great for runners looking to improve range of motion, decrease stiffness, pain, speed recovery and improve your overall performance. The travel version's 17" length easily fits into most gym bags or suitcases, perfect for your next marathon or just an overnight trip. If you're coming to Boston to run the marathon, this is a must have."
