<p>"In the world of MotoX and Enduro Racing, arm pump is a real problem. The rider eventually cannot even hold on to the handle bars. Physicool provides the solution pre-race by cooling and compression of the forearms, ensuring the rider a much longer time in control on the bike before arm-pump sets in. Physicool used post race on the riders forearms improves recovery and gets the rider back on the bike ready for the next round. Physicool offers a great solution for a real problem in MotoX.&#8221;&nbsp;- Nick of No Limits, Johnstown, Wrexham<br/><br/><font size="1" face="Verdana">Each and every day Physicool is finding new and practical ways to get athletes performing at their peak. The traditional compression and cooling bandage is just the start of it, to make sure injury rehab is as fast and quick as posisble. Using the Physicol bandage system post-training as a prehab cooling system prevents muscle damage and aids faster recovery from muscle soreness. In sports such as MotoX where forearm muscle pump is a problem, using Physicool between rounds means that performance in each round can improve. But by using the coolant either as a spray-on or soaking wrist sweatbands and taking adavantage of the cooling effect, endurance capacity has now been shown to improve significantly.</font></p>

<h2>Physicool in action - Rugby</h2>
<p>"The tactical difference between association football and Rugby with its varieties seems to be that in the former, the ball is the missile..., in the latter, men are the missiles." - Alfred E. Crawley (1913)</p>
<p>Rugby is the one of the most physically demanding sports in the world and has been described as &#8220;war without the frills&#8221;. In the modern game a player will cover between 5 and 10 kilometres per match, often on a pitch which is rapidly turning in to a mud bath. Also there is the rather large matter of 15 men on the other side who want to leave you a bruised and bloodied wreck.</p>
<p>Physicool is the product which ensures players are ready for the rigours of training and playing week in, week out; when used post-exercise as part of an injury prevention routine. Combining cooling and compression Physicool can be used immediately after a game or training as a more convenient alternative to an ice bath, lessening the damage of impact injuries and speeding up the recovery of soft tissue injuries.</p>
<p>And finally just when the product get any better, by usin gthe the refill can you can start all over again - and recharge the bandage several more times...<br/><br/></p><font size="1" face="Verdana">

<p>A revolutionary sports bandage which helps to prevent sports injuries and reduce recovery time has recently attracted attention from one of Britain&#8217;s leading entrepreneurs.<br/><br/>Physicool, a range of innovative and unique products which is already hugely popular amongst sports enthusiasts, was featured on <em>Dragons Den,</em> BBC Two&#8217;s hugely popular television programme which regularly attracts in excess of 4 million viewers.<br/><br/>Kay Russell, creator of the Physicool range, entered the dragon&#8217;s lair in August hoping to secure an investment of &pound;100,000 in return for a 20% stake in her company.<br/><br/>During her pitch Kay demonstrated the Physicool Cooling Bandage, which works by removing heat from the affected area, on potential investor James Caan before being quizzed by the rest of the Dragons, including Theo Paphitis, Duncan Bannatyne and Peter Jones. <br/><br/>However, Kay succeeded where many have failed by taming the tycoons and agreeing a deal with Deborah Meaden, who agreed to invest &pound;100,000 in Physicool in exchange for a 30% stake in the business.<br/><br/>Kay was understandably delighted at emerging from the <em>Dragons Den</em> with a new business partner in the form of Meaden, who was estimated to be worth &pound;40 million in the 2008 Sunday Times Rich List.<br/><br/>&#8220;I'm so pleased Deborah's offered to invest in Physicool,&#8221; says Kay. <br/><br/>&#8220;Not only is she West Country born and bred like me, she knows the leisure industry inside out and would be extremely helpful to my goal of making Physicool a global brand.&#8221;<br/><br/>The Physicool range, which includes the <a href="http://www.fitnessmonitors.com/products/Physicool-Cooling-Bandage.html">Physicool Cooling Bandage</a>, <a href="http://www.fitnessmonitors.com/products/Physicool-Coolant.html">Physicool Coolant </a>and&nbsp;<a href="http://www.fitnessmonitors.com/products/Physicool-Coolant-Combo.html">Physicool Combo</a> containing a bandage and coolant, combines two essential elements of sports injury treatment and prevention; compression and cooling.<br/><br/>The specially formulated Physicool Cooling Bandage provides 10-15&deg;c of deep muscular cooling for up to 3 hours and is completely reusable when recharged with Physicool Coolant and returned to the resealable pouch.<br/><br/>Physicool offers&nbsp; a convenient and effortless alternative to ice baths by helping to eliminate the bi-products of exercise that can lead to a loss in performance or injury, making Physicool an indispensable part of any <em>prehab</em> routine.<br/><br/>The Physicool range does not require any refrigeration and can be used anywhere on the body to treat strains, sprains and bruising making Physicool a must for anybody who is serious about their sport.<br/><br/>FitnessMonitors.com is currently offering free delivery across the entire Physicool range!</p>]]></description>
