Flexibility Amplifies Speed and Power


As you return to the field or gym after a Summer of fun, you may find yourself in need of something ‘extra’ – a little help – in getting your stride back…especially if you need to regain your full playing potential quickly.

Well, look to The Stick!

But don’t take our word for it - listen to Dr. Brian M Hickey of Florida A&M University. He’s explained it brilliantly:


Speed is often the deciding and prime factor in athletic competition. It is the result of flexibility and power. When force is applied over a greater range of motion – the potential for power and speed is multiplied…

…Research shows that an increase in flexibility directly amplifies speed and power. About 25% of an athlete’s total training time should be dedicated to the use of flexibility enhancing modalities.


Dr Hickey also credits The Stick as a great tool for facilitating general and segmented stretching with a high degree of precision.” Yes, it certainly is that…and yet The Stick also does so much more: from facilitating blood flow (which has numerous benefits) to flushing lactic acid to releasing trigger points to increasing flexibility, and more.

It’s not just a stretch; it’s not just a massage; it’s not just a trigger point eliminator; it’s a combination of all of the above…and it’s a device designed to amplify your performance by combining multiple benefits.

How long does it take? Just a few minutes per day. That’s it.

Get your stride back and throttle to full power and full speed with The Stick.

How quickly can you excel?
