When I ran away Track in college (10 years ago, breath), my team’s physical therapists were always urging us to use all the tools of any and restoration, no matter how ridiculous our college children. We will leave the practice with a shaking protein in every hand, our shank is hitting the ice bag that was wrapped in plastic on our feet when we were walking to the dining hall. We visited the training room three times a day to get an ice bath or ultrasound, transcotionis electrical muscle stimulation, or simultaneously love and terrifying grasson massage. Foam rolling and mini band work were Staple.
Since then, I have been attracted to how trainers and coaches can use Recovery Recovery methods to make people better athletes, or bounce faster with marathon training. When the Nice ROCC, a new handheld palm cooling device that claims to improve muscle recovery, I came to my radar, I was interested.
Even better, the ROCC Bolder is manufactured in Colorado, where I live in Denver. To see how this thing is made, I had to fall through good headquarters for myself.

Palm cooling, also known as palm cooling or vicoling, uses rosemary, or hair, skin, which is on the palms of human hands and their feet soles. The skin contains special blood vessels, called arterinosis anastomos, which contract rapidly and extensively, if you want to cool the basic temperature, it becomes a huge area to target them. This helps to recover muscle and help athletes run for longer.
When you have a palm cooling device, it sucks heat from the body and sends cold blood back to the circulatory system, which causes the body’s basic temperature to fall rapidly. Athletes can benefit from these tools in sports or in practice. Even these devices are being used to help firefighters and military personnel fight heat stress. As a performance tool, palm is supported by cooling research. Today, NBA, NHL, MLB, and NFL as well as professional coaches and players in tennis, football, and Olympic athletes are using these products to get these products in sports and during training.
Nice has already established itself as an iceless recovery tool maker with a nice 1, a portable cooling and compression device, but the first time it is in cooling for performance rather than recovering ROCC injury. It is a dense, round cylinder that weighs 5.3 pounds, but has a number of factors that keep it separate from other options in the market.
Although most palm cooling devices, such as Colmitted, require some setup (usually in the form of cold packs or water adding to the vessel), the ROCC uses solid state electronic cooling, which is found in mini -fridge. The small squares inside the machine have two different conductors metals that are found on one junction. Sending electricity to the junction stimulates the palletter effect, which makes the outward appearance of the squares cool, the interior of the squares is heated. (This heat is released by fans in the middle of the ROCC.)
All of this means that you just have to make sure you are charged with the ROCC before you use it. It can run two hours on the same charge. Once you activate it, it takes only two minutes to reach the appropriate cooling temperature (50-60 degrees Fahrenheit). Falling to the lower levels causes these shiny skin blood vessels to limit, and sends your cold blood through your body. Lights on the device tell you that when it is ready to go and the charge status.
To move it forward
Nice recommends ROCC for everyone who wants to increase their training or competitive performance, but you should keep it on for at least two minutes to get the best results. (A hippoc timer vibrate every thirty seconds to help keep you track.)
