FROM INJURY TO INNOVATION
If you purchase our products, simply owning them won't change anything. But using them might give you an 'unfair' advantage.
I Learned the Hard Way
“Everything began with my third injury in the first year of running. This one was severe—I couldn’t run for an entire month, and nothing seemed to help. The doctor advised me to choose a different sport and quit running altogether. My journey wasn’t typical: having never seriously run before, I had already completed two marathons within months. Now I faced a tough decision: quit or fight. It wasn’t easy. Whenever someone says I can’t do something, I always ask myself—do they really know my story? If the answer is no, I always fight. To me, that’s the only way to move forward. That day, after visiting the doctor, I chose to fight.”
There Was a Lot of Work
“I read more than twenty books on running, injuries, and recovery. I watched countless rehabilitation videos and discovered I had a severe case of ITBS. Having started running just before turning 30 without prior preparation, I had run two marathons within my first nine months. It was too much for my unprepared body. I realized I needed strength training, improved posture, and specialized long-distance training. My body weight was also a factor. Without strength exercises, foam rolling, and regular stretching, returning to running after just one month would have been impossible. Through hard experience, I discovered how crucial daily self-massage and stretching routines were. From then on, my foam roller became an indispensable companion. Two years later, I completed my first ultra-marathon, and in my third year of running, I finished both 100 km and 150 km ultra-marathons. I know my rapid progress came directly from a disciplined routine involving foam rolling, stretching, and strength training—and never letting others dictate what I could achieve.”
I Had Specific Needs
“However, the available equipment was problematic. At that time, I didn’t have a dedicated training space and trained in my living room. Most gear on the market had poor design, unattractive aesthetics, and was difficult to transport. Cheaply-made products wore out within weeks. And good luck fitting an 18-inch massage stick into a small travel bag. The ‘industry leaders’ seemed outdated and disconnected from athletes’ real needs. I wanted to create gear I could proudly use in public or at home—products with reliable functionality, thoughtful aesthetics, and practical portability. After two and a half years of work alongside our amazing design team, we developed the world’s first truly functional, patented folding foam roller. After creating this exceptional product, we realized there was much more training gear we could improve, allowing everyone to enjoy a genuinely pleasant training experience.”
Tools Don't Make Athletes
“Please remember, gear is just a tool—it won’t make you stronger on its own. You don’t need our equipment to become exceptional. Our gear stands out because we design it thoughtfully, with care, innovation, and athletes’ real needs in mind. Still, you can achieve greatness using the resources already around you. Equipment alone doesn’t make a great athlete. It helps, but your determination is the true key to success. We care deeply about Earth’s resources, so please make responsible purchasing decisions. Instead of constantly searching for the next revolutionary gadget, prioritize training. When you’re truly ready for high-quality training products, you’ll know. But never forget—you already have everything you need within you.”
