I’ve been using the curranz product for a few months now on and off. Over the last 2 months I’ve made an effort to use it the day before and 2-3 hours before either a hard session or before a race.
It’s been pretty obvious, for me, that the next day (or subsequent day) in virtually every case I have very little (or no) muscle soreness (DOMS). Unscientifically of course.
For the more keen athletes amongst you addicted to training this is probably a good thing as you can get back to training sooner than you probably should 😉
(EDIT: Promotional Discount Code is RUNCURRANZ on the curranz website, this should give you 15% off until October 2015 then 10% afterwards should you wish to buy any. There is probably a performance benefit too at Lactate Threshold Efforts)

My favourite kit and nutrition
- Maurten — the race nutrition trusted by elite athletes. Gels and drink mix engineered to be easy on the stomach.
- Garmin 90-degree charging adapter — the small adapter that keeps your charging cable tidy at the stem. Essential for race day.
- Garmin charging puck — the fastest and most reliable way to top up your Garmin before a session.
- Ravemen FR300 — front light that mounts directly under your Garmin or Wahoo head unit. Keeps your bars clean and your beam pointed where it matters.
- Garmin Varia RTL515 — radar rear light that alerts you to vehicles approaching from behind. Pairs with your Edge or Garmin watch.
- Stryd — the footpod that brings running power to your Garmin. The single most useful running upgrade I have made.
- Favero Assioma Pro RS2 — the power meter pedals most serious cyclists end up choosing. Accurate, easy to move between bikes.
