Over the last few years, I’ve established great relationships with some outstanding sports companies. I’ve partnered with them because they embody what I value most in sports-related products: innovation, superior quality, and leading-edge performance.
In today’s installment of Meet My 2023 Partners, I am thrilled to introduce you to my newest partner Firefly Recovery. Firefly is a scientifically proven device (it came from a medical device which received FDA approval, so it’s been tested and proven many times over) that increases blood flow to your legs (and throughout your body) by as much as 400% following intense exertion, thereby increasing oxygen in the fatigued parts of your body, reducing soreness, and speeding recovery. Firefly works by sending small electrical pulses to stimulate your peroneal nerve just below your knees. It also helps to reduce jetlag and swelling during flights by keeping the blood flowing while seated for long periods.
I was told about Firefly by Brendan Duffy, a sleep expert who works with many collegiate and professional teams, as a helpful tool for jetlag as I was getting ready to fly to Abu Dhabi (a ~24-hour flight) to compete in the World Triathlon Championships last November. I ordered a set immediately and used them on my flights to and from Abu Dhabi (no swelling or “heavy legs” feelings”) and after my first race (my legs felt fresh 24 hours later for my second race of the trip).
Since my return and having begun to ramp up my training for my 2023 triathlon season, I use Firefly after every intense bike and run workout. My recoveries have never been quicker and training quality, even after a difficult workout, has never been higher.
Firefly has become and will continue to be an essential part of my triathlon training and race regimen. I truly believe that it will add to my confidence when I know I have a tough day ahead of me and will also give me a leg up (pun intended) on my competitors on race day.
So, if you want to recovery faster from your last workout or race and want to be better rested and prepared for your next one, I encourage you to look at Firefly Recovery.
