This Palm-Cooling Device Helps You Recharge During Workouts
Briefly

The article discusses the evolution of recovery methods in athletic training, focusing on the innovative Nice Rocc, a handheld palm-cooling device. The device utilizes the unique properties of the skin on palms and soles to lower core body temperature efficiently. This process, known as palm-cooling or vasocooling, is not only beneficial for athletes during training but is also adapted for use by firefighters and military personnel to alleviate heat stress. The Rocc represents a merging of science and technology aimed at enhancing performance and recovery speeds for athletes.
When you hold a palm-cooling device, it sucks heat from the body and sends cooled blood back into the circulatory system, dropping core body temperature fast.
Palm-cooling uses the glabrous skin on palms and soles, which has blood vessels that contract quickly and effectively aid muscle recovery.
I was fascinated by how trainers and coaches can use recovery methods to make people better athletes or bounce back from training faster.
The Rocc, a handheld palm-cooling device, claims to improve athletic performance by rapidly speeding up muscle recovery.
