You’ve got two tools in your kit.
Both designed for athletes.
Both built with natural ingredients.
But one goes on before the work and one kicks in after.
Here’s how to know when to reach for ProHeat Cream and when to lean on Elite Recovery Cream so your training, racing, and recovery routines always hit right.
What's the Core Difference?
ProHeat Cream is for activation.
Elite Recovery Cream is for recovery.
Think of ProHeat as your pre-workout primer, the warm-up boost that gets blood flowing and muscles firing without the extract effort.
Elite Recovery is your post-workout relief, calming inflammation and soreness to help your body heal so it can bounce back stronger.

Apply it to areas that feel tight or cold:
-
Quads, hamstrings, calves
-
Shoulders, elbows, lower back
-
Hips, knees, ankles
Why it works:
ProHeat contains turmeric, cayenne, menthol, and white willow bark, creating a natural warming effect that supports blood flow, joint prep, and range of motion.
It’s your movement primer.

-
High-intensity training sessions
