Stockport County Bring Pulseroll To The FA Cup

Go, Go, Go County!

Stockport County travel to Barnet in the FA Cup Second Round this weekend, backed by a tremendous following, and Pulseroll!

As a guest host on Match of the Day on the BBC after his heroics in the last round, talisman Matty Warburton will be looking to lead the Hatters to glory again and says having Pulseroll in his locker is key to both pre and post-match preparations.

Match Ready With Pulseroll

“Being an athlete is all about working within fine margins, and improving in absolutely every way possible” says Warburton ahead of his side’s trip south. “The Vibrating Pulseroll allows me to make those improvements and aids my recovery, making it a great piece of equipment as I look to strengthen and progress”.

Alongside Matty is winger Adam Thomas, man of the match in County’s last outing, a 3-0 win at home to Chorley. Thomas, who also scored in the game at Edgeley Park, says the Pulseroll Peanut Massage Ball is ideal for his personal recovery.

“As a winger I tend to twist and turn a lot in games, putting particular strain on my hip flexors. The Peanut allows me to really focus on the recovery of these to get me match ready as quickly as possible. The fact that they’re so easy to transport and have great battery life means I use them after training as well as games!”

Should Stockport County win on Saturday, they’ll progress to the third round and potentially draw Premier League opposition. When asked who he’d like to face in the next round, Warburton had a clear opponent in mind.

“I’ve always wanted to play at Wembley Stadium, so Tottenham Hotspur would be the ideal draw” claimed the attacking midfielder. “That happens, and we’ll be taking Pulseroll to Wembley!”

Good luck Stockport County, Pulseroll are behind you!

Pulseroll’s vibration technology is vital for match day. Follow in County’s footsteps and see a faster recovery and improved technique.

Choose Your 2019 Bucket List Adventure With Pulseroll

2019 is fast approaching and we’ve certainly got the travel bug for new adventures and new challenges. Whether you’re looking for a magical trip to a winter wonderland or eager to reach new heights in the scorching sun, Pulseroll has got your next epic trip covered. Grab a suitcase, get comfy, and be prepared to take note of everything you need for your upcoming adventure.

 

Experience The Phenomenal Aurora Borealis

Picture yourself standing in a blanket of snow while looking up at one of nature’s finest displays…The Northern Lights. Watching the colours dance across the sky, taking a ride with a husky, and settling down in a glass igloo under a starry scene is an incomparable winter escape for your 2019 bucket list. September to mid-April is the ideal time to catch the impressive show in Iceland.

However, the colder climate can soon begin to take its toll no matter how efficiently you wrap up. It’s best to bring the portable and lightweight Peanut Massage Ball along in your handheld luggage to keep your muscles warm and increase circulation with the unique vibration technology. You’ll then be set for a hike to discover South Iceland’s mind-blowing Sólheimajökull glacier and Vatnajökull glacier thanks to the Peanut’s 3-hour rechargeable battery and 3 intensity levels.

Off The Beaten Track Adventure

Always fancied yourself a rock climber? Then why not choose from a rock climbing holiday in Morocco, Greece, or Spain for an adrenaline-fuelled escape. Whether you’re an expert climber or a complete beginner, the gear is provided to save you some room for packing. Interact with nature and its mountains from new heights, admire the breath-taking view, and descend into a cool down with Pulseroll. Choose from 4 vibration speed settings on the Vibrating Foam Roller and see which one provides the most relief.

The hip flexors are the muscles that help bring your thigh to your abdomen, and when it comes to climbing, these are important for those regular high feet and heel hooks. If you strain or pull a hip flexor, heel hooking will no longer be on the agenda. See our video guide for aiding hip flexors to keep you climbing upwards.

Take A Ride Through The Mountains

The amazing mountain bike regions of Austria, Italy, and Switzerland offer an array of viewing points, mighty peaks, and challenging trails for you to get stuck into. This unforgettable experience will have you blazing through downhill runs and beautiful landscapes to improve your skill and time, and there’s also a chance for family fun on a mountain biking adventure for a bit of friendly competition!

Cyclists often suffer from tight quads, hamstrings, glutes, lower backs, and calves. The quads certainly need some attention after a biking expedition, so here is our guide to relieving your quad pain:

So you’re now set for your next immense adventure without having to worry about an injury spoiling all the fun. Check out our Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram for more tips and tricks with our vibration training and technology.

Run A Marathon With Pulseroll

Run A Marathon With Pulseroll

Despite the chilly weather, many of us are training hard and hitting the road in preparation for the marathons 2019 has to offer. Whether it’s your first time or you’re looking to set a new personal record, training for a marathon is a long yet rewarding process, and we’re here to help you to the finish line with our vibration recovery.

Completing 26.2 miles is an inspiring accomplishment that requires commitment and dedication. Although running a marathon is an exciting adventure, consistent training day-to-day can begin to take its toll, leaving you feeling demotivated and burned out. Here are our top tips for staying healthy and avoiding injury:

The Starting Line

Most training plans consist of 16 to 20 weeks of training; you’ll typically run three to five times a week, and your weekly mileage total will gradually increase as you get closer to race day. If you’re wondering whether you’re ready to run a marathon, Runner’s World recommend that you have a base of a minimum of three to six months’ worth of running four times per week. You should be able to comfortably complete a run of six miles. And you should run a few 5K races at the very minimum.

What To Expect

Your body needs to become accustomed to running for long periods of time, and so newer runners may start with 15 to 20 miles a week and gradually build to a peak of 35 to 40 miles. It’s important that you remember to take it steady and run at a conversational pace that gradually increases in distance to build your strength and endurance.

Pulseroll Essentials

Spending so much time on your feet inevitably effects your muscles, leaving them feeling extremely tender and sore. However, if you implement a successful recovery routine into your marathon training, your muscles and joints will only strengthen ready for the big race day.

Our vibration technology can help improve your training and recovery time, aid plantar fasciitis, prevent DOMS, and prepare your muscles for weeks of endurance. With 4 vibration speed settings to choose from and a rechargeable battery, the Vibrating Foam Roller makes the perfect companion for marathon training.

Marathon

You can also release knots and tension and reduce muscular pain with the Peanut Massage Ball, a lightweight and portable option for recovery on the go. See our video on the technique for shin pain:

Stay Hydrated

Just 2 percent of dehydration can slow you down, so it’s extremely important that you drink enough before, during, and after your run to perform your best. Before you hit the road, you should have six to eight ounces of water and while you are running, you should aim to take in three to six ounces every 15 to 20 minutes.

Our handy 1 litre water bottle includes a fruit infuser and can double up as a protein shaker to boost your energy throughout your marathon training.

Pulseroll can help improve your recovery sessions and reduce next day soreness. We’d love to hear more about how Pulseroll is enhancing your marathon training, so let us know over on Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram.

Manage Diabetes With Pulseroll Exercises

Worryingly, almost 3.7 million people have been diagnosed with diabetes in the UK, and more people than ever are at risk of developing Type 2 diabetes.

If nothing changes, more than 5 million of us will have diabetes in the UK by 2025. It’s time to make a difference to our lifestyles.

Did you know that physical activity can decrease your chance of Type 2 diabetes by up to 40%?

Getting and staying active can help you manage your diabetes and reduce glucose spikes after meals. Here are some of the exercises you can try coupled with Pulseroll solutions to help you manage your diabetes:

I Have Been Diagnosed With Diabetes. What Exercise Should I Be Doing?

Whether you are a busy parent, a university student, sat at a desk all day or ready for retirement, doing any form of exercise is hugely beneficial for your physical and mental health.

The good news is that you can still participate in activities and do the sport you enjoy if you have Type 1 diabetes. You’ll just have to take some steps to make sure you do it safely. Always check with your doctor before beginning any physical activity.

Exercise and sport affect your blood glucose levels. Depending on the type of exercise you do, it can cause your blood glucose levels to rise (hyperglycemia) or drop (hypoglycemia). For more advice on avoiding this, visit the NHS and Diabetes UK.

Start Slow And Make Exercise Fun

Don’t be afraid of trying new things to see what works best for you. You’re more likely to stick with it if you enjoy it, so get your family and friends involved!

If you haven’t exercised for a while, build yourself up gradually with a brisk walk around the park. Give your body time to adapt as your muscles strengthen.

It’s also important that you think about your routine prior to your workout and once it is complete.

The best way to remain injury-free is to take just 5 minutes with our Vibrating Foam Roller for self-myofascial release. The 4 vibration speed settings can help reduce muscular pain and next day soreness, so there’s no need to be worried about starting exercise. It can also improve your circulation to help relieve stress and anxiety – so breathe, relax, and massage.

Make Small Changes

Tired of getting stuck in traffic on the way to work? Try leaving your car at home and start cycling to work, or get off the bus a couple of stops earlier and walk the rest of the distance to give yourself an opportunity to exercise. So why not hit the stairs instead of the escalator, and take in some fresh air on your lunch break.

If you’re planning on becoming more active during your working day to manage your diabetes, bring the Peanut Massage Ball along to relieve any knots and tension you may have. Its handy size makes it a portable and lightweight accessory to keep in your desk, and the 3-hour rechargeable battery is fantastic for rapid training recovery on the go.

Self-care Routines With Vibration Technology

According to the Self Care Forum, self-care is the actions that individuals take for themselves on behalf of and with others in order to develop, protect, maintain and improve their health, wellbeing or wellness.

Many of us are guilty of putting others before ourselves when looking after number one is beneficial for a long, healthy lifestyle. It’s easy to get caught up in the whirlwind of day to day life. We often keep our feelings bottled up, forget to take time out for ourselves, and refuse to slow down when the warning signs begin to surface.

Self-care is vital for our happiness. We all have a key role in protecting our own health, choosing appropriate treatments and managing long-term conditions. To help as many individuals as we can, here is our guide to implementing self-care and how Pulseroll can assist:

Seasonal Self-Care

Is the bitter cold of winter keeping you on that sofa in front of the TV? Don’t let the weather distract you from a self-care routine – take advantage of it instead! Arriving at your local park to see a fresh blanket of snow and a frozen lake can make a world of difference to your happiness. Take a moment to admire your surroundings, snap a picture, and keep in mind that there’s a warming hot chocolate waiting for you at home.

Take Note Of Where You’re Holding Tension

When we’re stressed or nervous, we tend to hold ourselves differently. Clenching jaws, tense shoulders, and sore necks and backs are just some of the physical effects of anxiety, leaving us feeling fragile and worn out. It’s extremely important to take the time to calm your body down and recognise where the stress or tension is coming from.

Once you’ve identified where the problem lies, you can begin to relieve the pressure of anxiety with one of Pulseroll’s self-care routines. To get you started, here is how to use our vibration technology to aid tense shoulders:

 

 

Establish A Routine

Having a hectic schedule often leaves little time for exercise and a decent night’s sleep. As discussed in one of our previous articles, compromising these can be detrimental to our health, so it is vital that we set time aside for self-care. Even just 20 minutes of exercise a day can make a significant difference. Whether you choose to meditate, walk, run, or cycle, you’ll soon start to feel the benefits.

Allow yourself to switch off from social media and develop a pre-sleep routine with Pulseroll’s Vibrating Foam Roller; improve your circulation and begin to unwind and recover for a peaceful sleep. Don’t worry about your Vibrating Foam Roller losing power either, the built-in rechargeable battery will have you ready for bed in no time.

 

Indulge In A Massage

 

self-care

 

We understand that treatments and massages are hard to fit into a schedule and can be costly. Luckily, our Peanut Massage Ball enables you to give yourself a sports massage at a reasonable price, and it’s handy size and rechargeable battery makes it extremely useful for relaxation on the go. Try out the 3 power intensity levels to see which one provides you with the most comfort.

Just two minutes of self-myofascial release increases your muscles’ range of motion by 10%, according to a study published in the Journal Of Strength And Conditioning Research.

The self-care element offered by vibrating foam rolling gives you ultimate control over your recovery and well-being. Follow us on Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram to find more advice on looking after your mind and body.

Pulseroll backs Crolla!

Market leader Pulseroll will be cheering on Anthony Crolla this weekend as he continues his return to a world title shot. Crolla will face Daud Yordan on Saturday, on the undercard of Tony Bellew’s curtain call against unbeaten cruiserweight Oleksandr Usyk, with the winner due to face pound for pound king Vasyl Lomachenko for world honours.

Crolla is highly regarded in the sport of boxing, but also on a personal level in his hometown of Manchester. In 2014 he was subject to horrendous injuries after confronting a burglar at a neighbours house, leaving more than just his boxing career in the balance. A remarkable desire to return to the ring saw Crolla rise quickly through injuries that left him ‘lucky to be alive’. Since then he has won, defended but ultimately lost a world title, and now he looks to get back to his peak level.

Anthony Crolla Pulseroll

As a user of Pulseroll, and heralding from the same city, we fully support Anthony Crolla and believe he has what it takes to reclaim Lightweight glory.

Embracing vibrating technology to enhance muscle recovery, Pulseroll is the ideal product for athletes of all levels. Reducing next day soreness, flushing away lactic acid and increasing blood flow are just some of the ways Pulseroll reduces muscle pain. Combined with the portability of the product and the 3 hour rechargeable battery, the product is perfect for gym goers or anyone carrying out sports activities.

Ahead of the winter months, Pulseroll users have also seen a remarkable improvement in areas like back pain and arthritis. The symptoms of such problems are known to flare up as the cold air kicks in, so prepare ahead with our range of products.

The weekend however, belongs to Anthony Crolla. Anthony has made the Manchester Arena his second home, and will look to his audience for support once more as he steps between the ropes.

Good luck Anthony Crolla, Pulseroll is with you!

Stress Management With Pulseroll

Studies have shown that chronic pain can be caused by stress and emotional issues as well as physical injury. In particular, individuals who suffer from PTSD are often at a higher risk of developing chronic pain.

It’s easy to become stressed out when the pressures of work and everyday life become too much. Stress and pain affect one another, creating a vicious cycle that increases feelings of hopelessness, depression, and anxiety.

As your feelings of stress and anxiety increase, your body’s stress response is activated, causing the muscles to become more tense and constricted. Part of getting pain relief is learning how to better manage stress, so here is our guide to improve your wellbeing:

A Decent Night’s Sleep

 Lack of quality sleep is associated with burnout and chronic pain, consequently having a negative effect on your diet and mental health.

When using the Vibrating Foam Roller correctly, it activates the parasympathetic nervous system, which is responsible for helping you unwind and recover. After a tough day, there’s nothing better than placing your phone out of sight and having some downtime with the Vibrating Foam Roller.

You’ll soon be ready to enter a deep and peaceful sleep with our relaxing techniques. It’s a great restorative routine to push the day’s worries to the back of your mind. Breathe, go slow, and think of it as a massage; there’s no need to pay for costly treatments thanks to our products increasing your circulation.

Destress and Become Mindful With Yoga

Yoga is a fantastic way of relaxing and slowing down the mind. Meditation is a powerful stress management tool as it requires your focus to hold postures and take awareness of your breath. With plenty of practice, you’ll begin to develop new habits for a more relaxed internal state.

Stress and anxiety can cause us to breathe in a rapid and shallow way due to panic attacks and tense situations. Yoga gives you the opportunity to breathe more effectively, using the diaphragm and utilising the whole lung capacity.

Pulseroll makes the perfect companion to a well-planned yoga or pilates practice as the vibrations will help you to increase flexibility, improve your skill and boost circulation:

 

 

Fight Stress With Running

 If you’re feeling overwhelmed, running can be your friend. Just getting outside to be alone with your thoughts can make a huge difference, and focusing on your pace and distance can help distract you from your worries. Endorphins play a big role too. These “feel-good” hormones released during a run relieve stress and anxiety, improving your overall well-being.

So get those running shoes on, hit the road, and make a step towards a stress-free day. The Peanut Ball can help with plantar fasciitis and tight glutes, while the Vibrating Foam Roller can relieve tight hamstrings.

Our Pulseroll products are great for stress management. Incorporating them into your routine can dramatically improve your wellbeing, helping you to relax and unwind. Follow us on Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram for more advice on reducing stress.
