nathaniel 0 #1 December 14, 2005 How nice would it be to have one of these on one of those 95-degree, 100% humidity days at the WFFC?QuoteThe device, CoreControl, is a coffee pot-size chamber with a cold metal cone in the center. The user grips the cone and holds it for three to five minutes. Afterward, users report feeling not cooler, but fresher and ready to work jump again. Unlike more common cooling strategies like cold towels, cooling vests or gel packs, CoreControl focuses special radiatorlike blood vessels in the palm of the hand to take the heated blood that is normally pumped throughout the body during and after exertion and send cooler blood back to the body core instead.A vacuum in the CoreControl chamber enlarges the vessels to help prevent vasoconstriction, the same phenomenon that causes fitness enthusiasts to keep sweating after a cool shower.My advice is to do what your parents did; get a job, sir. The bums will always lose. Do you hear me, Lebowski? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Silverchic 0 #2 December 14, 2005 I want one! Where can I get one??? I live in the North West of Western Australia and this morning at 8am it was already 30 (celcius)!How is it that we put man on the moon before we figured out it would be a good idea to put wheels on luggage?
