Why is the Stoga Ice Towel Your Post-Workout Cool-Down Fix

There is a fine line between healthy, glistening sweat and feeling overheated. It has been a few years since we designed the Stoga Ice Towel, a literal saviour as described by some users. People have been using the cooling towel not just for the gym but also for home workouts and many more activities, including the following:

• outdoor hiking
• summer days
• sports matches
• holidays
• beach trips

A standard cotton towel feels warm and humid. It gets damp.

At Stoga, our undying commitment is to design functional fitness products. After many iterations, the Stoga Ice Towel is finally gaining the attention it truly deserves in the fitness community. This 5-minute read may help you understand why you need to go beyond cotton towels for workouts and outdoor sessions.

Stoga Ice Towel: Your Cool-Down Fix

Being halfway through a killer workout is when you need something to cool down. This is when you are really on fire. When you almost crush your personal best. Here is what makes the Stoga Ice Towel unforgettable.

• instant cooling
• reusable towel
• hours-long relief
• chemical-free mesh
• eco-friendly fabric
• travel-friendly (carry case)
• easy to wash and maintain
• powerful colour choices

Hyper-evaporative material reactivates with just water. The next section gives you a rundown on how the cooling towel helps when workouts become too hot.

Stimulate the Vagus Nerve in Minutes

High-intensity workouts are great for boosting your cardiovascular health.

It is the aftermath that you need to think about. The Stoga ice towel is your savior when it comes to calming down the nervous system to shift into recovery mode. When you are in the middle of a workout session, your body enters the fight-or-flight mode. And when you ease out for recovery, it shifts into the parasympathetic nervous system. The "rest-and-digest" mode.

Using the cooling towel helps your body cool down and stimulates the vagus nerve quickly. This lowers stress hormones and blood pressure instantly. Applying the cooling towel in targeted areas may help you enter recovery mode faster:

• left side of your neck
• right side of your neck
• across your chest

The Go-To Use Case of the Stoga Ice Towel

Here are some of the ways in which you can use the Stoga Ice Towel:

• Keep it near for the HIIT kettlebell workout days
• Keep it in your car for hot summer commutes
• Take it with you on weekend hikes or when you play sports
• Bring it to your hot yoga class

You can also choose to wrap it around your neck when chasing the kids around at the park. It ensures you never have to put your life on pause just because you are feeling the burn.

Hives? Stay Cool with Stoga

It is not impossible to be a fitness enthusiast and feel the post-workout heat.

For some people, this body heat is enough to make them break out in hives. Fitness coaches say that physical exertion, humidity, rising body temperature, and sweating often cause this skin issue for people with sensitive skin. Here are some things that you need to know about hives:

• Hives are an uncomfortable experience to go through.
• About 1 in 5 people get regular hives at some point in life.
• Inducing a cooling sensation helps to stop the hives.
• Cooling towels help to reduce the local skin temperature fast.

At Stoga, we want to be inclusive and functional for all fitness enthusiasts and sports people. That is why the Stoga Ice Towel is made of chemical-free mesh fabric with cooling technology that helps to drop the body temperature and local skin temperature by 8 to 17 degrees Celsius below average body temperature.

Keep the Skin Allergens at Bay

Sometimes, it is not these exercise-triggered hives but the workout equipment and accessories that cause skin irritation. The Stoga Ice Towel is one way to help you stay cool through most of your workout routine without feeling like you are overheating. Here are some of the materials and equipment that often cause the skin to feel irritated or heated up during workouts.
