As the physical demand of being a top athlete grows on a daily basis, the science and engineering behind preventing muscle soreness does so similarly. Basic post workout recovery methods and muscle repair techniques such as stretching and rolling are slowly becoming secondary to the brilliant new technological appliances, including Compression Therapy in the form of recovery boots.
Compression Therapy is the appliance of a “squeeze and release” method around the chosen muscle group to help reduce swelling and reduce secondary tissue damage. By doing this you promote rapid recovery by introducing fresh blood cells to the focus area and reduce the flow of lactic acid to make your muscles heal quicker. For Athletes who train multiple times a day or during an intense pre-season/post-season schedule, there is no harm in investing in multiple compression therapy sessions per day, as long as there is sufficient recovery time between workouts.
Recovering like the pros do is a necessity, not an option. With little leeway for error in the world of competitive sport, edging out the competition by even 1% is a must. Compression therapy is not only time efficient (typically treatment is 10-30 minutes), but also extremely effective. Ideally, after your training is over, your cool-down and flexibility routine should be topped off by a solid 15-20 minutes (minimum) post-workout Game Ready, Aquilo, or Rapid Reboot compression session, by elevating the muscle group to prevent swelling and promote fresh blood cells.
Athletes and medical practitioners who are looking for the best compression boots that are portable and easy to use have a couple of options. Here is our review of the best compression boots on the market based on feedback from our professional athletes.
The team from Rapid Reboot has just released their two brand new compression recovery system control units, the Rapid Reboot Regen and the Rapid Reboot Genesis. So how do the new units compare to their predecessor, the Rapid Reboot Classic? Well, both the Regen and Genesis can now be taken abroad, meaning there’s no longer a need for mains power. Thanks to the addition of integrated batteries, the Genesis possesses a very respectable 2-hours of stand-alone operation and the Regen a massive 4-hours.
On top of that, the Rapid Reboot Regen has also been fitted with 4 different pre-programmed modes and 20 pressure levels that range from 0-200mmHg. And not to be outdone, the Rapid Reboot Genesis boasts 2 different pre-programmed modes and 10 pressure levels that also range from 0-200mmHg. Couple all of these awesome features with both Bluetooth and WiFi integration and, you’ve got to hand it to them, the Rapid Reboot team has done it again. They’ve set the new standard for compression recovery technology.
The Rapid Reboot Regen compression system control unit starts at $1,000 and the Rapid Reboot Genesis starts at $700.
