The Pore Tube Fit Check
Our pick for: Post-workout recovery and unwinding tight shoulders
Skill level: Beginner friendly, follow the manual
Where it fits: After a workout or during your evening wind-down
Our verdict: Premium price, premium build. If you want one massage gun you’ll actually carry around, this is the one.
Self-care is also about how your body feels. The Theragun Mini is the compact version of the massage gun that started the trend: small, quiet enough to use while watching videos, and it fits in a gym bag.
Why it earned a spot on our shelf
The best recovery tool is the one you’ll actually use, and a small one gets used way more often. It’s a great way to wind down after a long day or a workout, and it’s the kind of upgrade people tell us they wish they’d bought sooner.
How to use it well
- Charge it and read the included guide.
- Start on the lowest speed.
- Float it over large muscles like the shoulders, back, and legs. Don’t press hard.
- Spend about a minute per area.
- Stay away from bones, joints, the neck and the face.
Coach’s tip
Let the weight of the device do the work. Pressing hard doesn’t make it better.
