ROCKTAPE
Made for competition, ROCKTAPE is the only kinesiology tape engineered to meet the demands of endurance athletes like runners, swimmers and cyclists. Unlike other products, ROCKTAPE can be used both to apply compression to promote recovery, or decompression to relieve pain and swelling.
When applied over a stretched muscle, ROCKTAPE lifts the skin, accelerating blood flow to increase the amount of oxygen available to muscles, which reduces fatigue. ROCKTAPE also promotes lymph drainage to remove toxins produced by the body during hard efforts. These combined effects are powerful: they allow the athlete to go harder for longer periods of time. And unlike compression garments, ROCKTAPE can be applied to very specific areas of the body that are sometimes hard to reach, such as shoulders, knees and joints. ROCKTAPE costs $30 a roll.
