FAQ

Do I apply the lotion for races only?   
NO, the biggest performance gains are made during training in the “high intensity” spectrum above the lactate threshold. The effect of the accumulated gains made during training will improve you racing performance. SpeedON lotion is not a substitute for hard training but it will enable you to train harder and ultimately perform better!

During what training sessions should the lotion be used?
SpeedON lotion will be most beneficial during “High intensity” training sessions with increased resistance. (VO2Max, short and long intervals, hill repeats….)

To which muscles should the SpeedON lotion be applied?
SpeedON lotion should be applied to the muscles you predominantly use in you sport. The biggest benefit will be achieved in the muscles where you experience the “burn” ( acidosis) during high intensity bouts.

Do multiple application of the lotion enhance the effectiveness?

Does the lotion absorb quickly?
