Dan Lorang, the coach of BORA-hansgrohe, one of the world’s best cycling teams, was also heavily involved. Who better to know the best showering tricks to leave you feeling fighting fit. And so we incorporated Lorang’s expertise in sports medicine into the “Recovery” RainTunes scenario.
Showering like cycling stars Peter Sagan and Pascal Ackermann

10 minutes of intense showering after sport
Shower your legs with the water as cold as you can handle (around 8-12 °C) for two minutes. Start with the outer side of your right leg and shower up to your hip. Then back down the inside of your leg. Repeat the process, 2x on the right and 2x on the left. Then start from the beginning.
Now with your whole body under the shower. Shower for around a minute at a pleasant temperature (35-37 °C).
For the next 6 minutes, switch between hot and cold water every 45 seconds. Always start with cold water on the outside of the right leg, shower up to the hip, switch to the inside and back down. Switch sides and do the same on the left. Then shower the right arm (outside and inside). Switch sides, do the left arm and then the entire body.
To finish, give your legs another cold shower for around a minute.
RainTunes: Give it your all, then recover
