CoolMitt has partnered with USA Wrestling to introduce the most effective palmar cooling device on the market.
Originally funded by the military, CoolMitt® technology was discovered and developed at Stanford and has been proven to be the best way to rapidly cool core temperature. In published studies, participants using the technology experienced 144% gains in pullup performance as well as 25% improvement in conditioning.
“Our Olympic wrestlers benefited greatly from CoolMitt in Normandy during their Paris Olympic Games acclimation camp. As a partner of USA Wrestling, CoolMitt has become an essential component to our program. Athletes should expect to see significant strength and conditioning gains from training with CoolMitt. And the accelerated recovery from rapidly cooling core temperatures is a big advantage during meets.”

Heat is the Enemy of High Performance
Used by elite athletes worldwide, CoolMitt is easy to incorporate in most workouts - just put your hand in the Mitt while you’re taking a break. CoolMitt engages directly with your palm and -- within minutes -- cools your body up to three times faster. Athletes see noticeable results in as few as 30 seconds, with greatest results seen in 3 minutes.
Enabling wrestlers to:
* enhance anaerobic endurance gains in training
* accelerate recovery during practices / matches
* increase power & performance
How CoolMitt Works
The palm of the hands have a unique vascular structure that serves as radiators for the human body. When excess heat build, the hands vasodilate and release heat 5X greater than other skin surface areas. CoolMitt boosts this cooling process by drawing away heat and sending cooled blood to the core to cool from the inside out.
- As you compete or train, your muscles heat up.
- To stop the rising temperature, your body cuts the supply of energy (ATP) to the working muscles.
- As a result you begin to experience fatigue.
- The CoolMitt rapid thermal exchange mitt contacts the hand, pulls away heat, and sends cooled blood to the heart to cool you from the inside out.
- The result? Your body is cooled up to 3X faster in just minutes allowing you to do more of whatever comes next.
Testimonials
CrossFit Athlete
From the outset, I saw the CoolMitt do the trick. When I received it, I was conducting an intense squat cycle. I cooled between my high intensity sets. With the cooling, I felt fresh on every set. The strength gains were incredible……when I started the cycle my max squat was 405 pounds, and when I completed the cycle I could do 5 reps of 405.
Professional Athlete in Off-Season Training
I notice a huge difference when I use the CoolMitt during my rests throughout the workout. My work capacity and energy increases significantly. So noticeable my trainer believes in the CoolMitt from just watching me. It also dramatically reduces the soreness following the workout. I would say on a scale of 10 it lowers it from an 8 to a 4. I am the strongest I have ever been right now.
Personal Trainer of multiple professional athletes
During 3 sessions WITH the CoolMitt, the perceived total energy recovery and total recovery of baseline respiration rates were achieved at 1 minute 34 seconds during the 5 minute rest phase between the two 15 minute exertional bouts, as comapred to 3 minutes 47 seconds and 3 minutes 33 seconds during the sessions WITHOUT the CoolMitt intervention. This finding would demonstrate a positive correlation to increased ability to recovery between intense bouts of exercises in the gym. One may surmise similar impact between matches during a wrestling tournament.
