When it comes to percussion massage guns, the Theragun PRO is one of the best around. I’m a (once) competitive runner who has hit forty — and whose chronically tight IT band and calves have brought on a rash of injuries. On the advice of renowned sports fitness guru Dr. Jordan Metzl, I turned to massage guns. In shopping, I tried out the Hypervolt 2 (in the doctor’s office) and proceeded to try the Theragun and Power Plate guns on my own (it’s good to have fit friends). While I ended up with the Power Plate for home use because it was cheaper and slightly quieter, all three are powerful and did what they were meant to do — releasing tension in my calves and quads and letting me run again, at speed, without strain. If this $200 deal had emerged when I was shopping, there’s no doubt in my mind I would have strongly considered the Theragun PRO. So enjoy, and make sure you dig deep into proper use (this is one solid video). It’ll hurt, but in the right way.
