Without the above support this team wouldn’t have had the privilege of entering this amazing event! LPG products are leading the way in various massage techniques including Sports recovery!
Recovery is the name of the game in these endurance events and the LPG Sport machine is key to getting the riders ready for the next day and the next and the next!
Richard has been training on a radical new machine focusing on core muscle strengthening - the Huber, also by LPG,. Its purpose is to involve and combine concentration, balance, movement and posture in the development of the muscular chains. A strong central core is critical in all sports, and the Huber is used by Lance Armstrong, Ernie Else and many other international sportsmen.
