Cold Hands, Tight Muscles — How to Stay Functional When Winter Gets Ugly

Why Winter Stiffness Builds Overnight

Cold causes muscles to:

  • Contract more

  • Relax more slowly

  • Hold tension longer

  • Lose elasticity

That’s why you can feel “fine” at night — then wake up stiff and restricted.


Why Stretching Alone Isn’t Enough

Stretching doesn’t:

  • Increase tissue temperature fast

  • Improve circulation deeply

  • Reduce muscle tone efficiently

In winter, recovery must be active, not passive.


How the Pro V3.0 Keeps You Functional

The TimTam Power Massager Pro V3.0 helps athletes:

  • Warm tissue before movement

  • Release stiffness quickly

  • Restore range of motion

  • Maintain function despite cold

It’s not comfort — it’s preparation.
