(Health-NewsWire.Net, June 01, 2015 ) Portland, OR -- As Memorial Day unofficially kicks-off the summer season, many Americans will find themselves reactivating old tendon injuries, suffering through cramping muscles, and waking up sore after those ambitious Sunday bike rides and strenuous hikes.
Whether you're a pro athlete, weekend warrior, or just someone who loves to get outside for a walk in nature, the warmer weather and corresponding physical activity brings with it a rise in injuries as increased demand is placed on muscles and tendons.
The founders of Portland, Oregon based company TUFF Active Gear, with their background in massage therapy, know all about muscle aches and pains. They also know firsthand the benefits that can be experienced by practicing proper self-care rituals to support an active lifestyle.
Co-founder James Cedar points out that, "People are often surprised at how much of a difference a quick self-massage routine pre and post workout can make in enhancing performance, decreasing injuries, and shortening recovery time."
Regularly massaging muscles improves the quality of the tissues by increasing circulation and bringing fresh blood and nutrition to the cells while simultaneously supporting the removal of cellular waste. It also improves the efficiency of the body by release knots and chronic tension. All of this allows the muscles to soften and lengthen, making them more pliable and preventing injuries caused by poor bio-mechanics—dysfunctional movement of the body.
After years of promoting various self-massage tools to friends, family, and clients, they decided to manufacture their own high quality foam roller muscle stick and that's how TUFF STX were born. TUFF STX are high quality massage foam roller sticks designed to be durable and portable—both useful attributes for people living active on-the-go lifestyles.
James pointed out that, "We wanted them to be durable and hold up to the demands we knew would be putting on them. People fall in love with these things and take them everywhere and use them often. That's why we had them made in the U.S.A. from sturdy materials."
TUFF Active Gear will be rolling out more products in the future and they are building a community around the brand. They will be looking for people to test out products in real life conditions and give honest feedback.
