Sports & Running Accessories

With running becoming a more popular mode of keeping fit, reducing weight, de-stressing after work or commuting, it is important that accessories are used to ensure the highest level of safety, especially when exercising in Winter during dark nights, in poorly lit areas or in the midst of busy traffic.

At Physioroom we provide a large range of accessories to help ensure you can keep training all year around and in different or challenging environments. Our range includes; Running hats and gloves, High visibility products and Heart rate monitors and pedometers that all help cater for all your running needs. Whether it is to keep warm, be safe on dark nights or busy roads, push your training to the next level and achieve specific goals or run whilst managing health conditions, in this section you can find what you need.

During the winter months it is imperative to wear high visibility products such as the Flamborough LED Arm band as drivers do not always see runners or cyclists causing accidents or near misses. Our Ultimate 4-mode Headtorch also allows the runner to see in poorly lit areas, preventing unnecessary falls or trips and allowing you to continue training in safety over winter.

The Ultimate hat and gloves use wind-blocking fabric to stop the wind and the chill whilst out running or cycling. The excellent heat insulation and breathability provide high moisture diffusion and drying ability to keep you warm whilst wicking the sweat away from your skin to the outer surface of the garment to keep you dry and regulate body temperature.

Running in the mud, wet or up hills can all cause shoe laces to come undone, annoying if you are in the middle of a training run and poses a potential trip hazard and injury risk if the loose laces go unnoticed. If you’re sick of stopping to tie your shoes on every run, Lock Laces, are elastic laces that are pulled tight with a locking method to give a secure fit. Especially useful for triathlon when transitioning from the bike to run and swapping shoes at speed, avoiding tying laces can save time and reduce the likelihood of tripping. We even offer Reflective elastic laces as an extra visibility tool for dark nights.

Running is becoming a popular mode of transport to and from work. Avoiding busy buses, trains or queues of traffic, running can be an ideal mode of commuting. If training is combined with commuting to and from work it is imperative that you can also transport your work necessities, the Aire 2litre race elite hydration pack could be an ideal option to fit more kit into. At Physioroom we also offer a range of Waist packs like the Titan Runners Pack are ideal for smaller items such as carrying keys, phone or money whilst out on a run.

For those who enjoy running with music or use ipods at the gym our handy ipod carriers like the Ridgeway Runners Phone ArmBand can mean you don’t have to carry the device in your hand; both risking breakage to the device and always carrying something in one hand, whether it is an ipod, water bottle or dog lead, believe it or not can risk injury due to the continued asymmetry of the head, neck, shoulders and upper limb.

Heart rate monitors are useful in monitoring training, either to progress your level of fitness by exercising using specific Heart Rate zones or sometimes with health conditions affecting the heart and lungs, it can be important to keep exercise under a certain threshold. You may want to keep exercising and a heart rate monitor can help prevent you exerting yourself beyond a certain level. With clear displays the R3 Fitness Tracker offers easy to use functions and can be an extremely useful tool in monitoring exercise and safely keeping within boundaries for health reasons or pushing them for improved performance. The R3 Fitness Tracker also serves as a Pedometer and can be used to count steps and monitor movement throughout the day. The numbers don’t lie and reaching daily targets can serve as a great method of motivation in achieving fitness goals.
