Trigger Point Therapy Kits
Self Myofascial Release techniques have become a staple in most quality fitness programs and therapy clinics.
Our sedentary lifestyles leave our bodies stiff and dysfunctional, which can cause pain. AKA, sitting on a plane, in a car or at a desk too much.
We have found that a few minutes with a roller, a ball or these trigger point kits can wipe out most minor aches and pains FAST!
These are a staple of our program at Innovative Results, and a valuable tool for anyone that travels a lot.
You can get these in our pro shop or click here for more info.
Valslides are a great tool to have at home, in your luggage and in your gym bag.
They are slim, compact and they add some variety to traditional body weight workouts.
You can use them for upper body workouts, abdominal exercises and lower body alike.
If you workout at our gym, you know just how powerful these little sliders can be for your full body workout.
Buy a pair, put them in your luggage and you will thank us later!
Hotel Gyms are not very inspiring. They usually consist of a few dumbbells, a bench and some cardio equipment. BORING!
Fat Gripz easily slide over the handle of any dumbbell and transform it into a tough, hard to hold piece of exercise equipment.
These are perfect for Farmer Carries, Rows and just about every exercise that you can perform with a dumbbell.
Just like the Valslides, these fit easily into your bags, side pockets and other spots in your luggage.

The Jungle Gym is our suspension trainer of choice. While these have become popular in many gyms around the world, we believe that Jon Hinds has created a superior product and a incredible series of videos, DVDs and continuing education that allows anyone to get a full body workout, no matter where you are.
These take up a little more space, but they are well worth the effort. About the size of a pair of shoes (sorry ladies), these suspension trainers allow you to target any muscle in the body. Squat, lunge, push, pull, abs and more.
These babies are perfect for beginners to elite athletes.
