Cooling Your Palms Could Be the Edge You're Missing in Training

Evy Lyons from Apex Cool Labs explains how palm cooling technology is revolutionizing athletic performance by cooling blood and muscles during intense activity.

• Palm cooling accelerates recovery in competition and training by utilizing hands as the body's natural radiators
• Our palms get 10 times more blood flow than other skin areas when we're hot
• Cooling your palms helps lower core temperature, accelerate heart rate recovery, and extend muscle stamina
• Heat inhibits performance, but we lack internal temperature sensors to detect when our muscles are overheating
• Optimal cooling temperature is 50-60°F (10-15°C) - ice is actually too cold and causes vasoconstriction
• Athletes using palm cooling can add extra quality volume to workouts, leading to compound performance gains
• Evie doubled her pull-up max from 7 to 14 in eight weeks using palm cooling between sets
• Narwhals devices are now used by elite athletes across all major sports leagues and in the Olympics
• Beyond athletics, palm cooling provides critical benefits for "industrial athletes" in firefighting, construction, and manufacturing
• Heat is the number one climate-related killer globally, making cooling technologies increasingly important
