Get Ready for the Annual Mud Run!
Mud run competitions and obstacle races have become more trendy and popular sports all around the world with all types of mud races that include mountain climbers with a twist or just to work on your cardio muscles with require their own training, preparation, and post-race recovery. During the mud run, the participants are forced to be one with nature – they are put through tough obstacles that require perseverance and strength as they crawl through dark tunnels that are sometimes even 50 feet long! During the mud run, be prepared to get down and dirty! You may be required to crawl through concrete pipes filled with muddy water or getting over a net wall to show the strength of your muscles and the strength of your body!
One of the best ways to prepare your self for this fun activity is to purchase in-home fitness products that can help you prepare for the race all around the nation! These products can help you both before and after the competition and still keep you in tiptop shape! You will be able to develop strength, become more flexible, relax muscles, and relieve muscle tension.
Before The Race
Use a hot and cool roller, that will give you a massage and you will feel like you are being kneaded into dough and being pampered prior to the killer mud run! The hot/cold technology continues to maintain its temperature for up to 30 minutes and relieve the muscle tension! You can also buy a Restore Multi-Grip Stretch Strap, which can force you to become more flexible and allow you to try various stretch positions to perfect your flexibility.
During The Race
Why not use a headband to make sure your hair is protected? While you are running, stay cool and hydrated with Marrakesh BPA- free Stainless Steel Water Bottles throughout the race. Dehydration will lead to health problems in athletes and non-athletes, which can lead to fatigue, headache, decreased coordination, muscle cramp, and even heat stroke if you are not careful!
After The Race
Use a hand towel, which is hypoallergenic and non-permeable, which you can use to absorb all the sweat and dirt you will pick up as you win the race! Of course, you will feel exhaustion and what better way to relax than to use a dual temperature therapy wrap, which can ease all the muscle tension away with moist heat that will prevent cramping, reduce pain, and relax muscle with a soothing smell of an all natural chamomile and lavender to calm the mind!
