Second, the doxxing inferior fascia gun three major ***
Is the fascia gun an IQ tax? There are so many benefits of fascia guns, so why do people often complain that fascia guns are IQ taxes? This is because with the explosion of the fascia gun industry, more and more unprofessional brands have begun to emerge on the market, and once everyone buys this kind of product, it is easy to have muscle damage, which also makes users feel that the fascia gun is an IQ tax. About the *** of the inferior fascia gun, I have summarized the following three points. The following picture is the opinion of a professional fitness trainer:
1. Cause bruising and muscle soreness
Unprofessional fascia guns often have problems such as unstable thrust and poor hitting accuracy, and if you use this kind of fascia gun, you are prone to muscle soreness, muscle swelling, bruising and other problems.
2. Cause damage to bones and joints
There is a fascia gun equipped with a metal massage head on the market, which is very lethal, and it is easy to hurt bones and even cause bone cracks.
3. Cause chronic injury
Unprofessional fascia guns can also cause chronic injuries after a long period of use, which is insidious, and the user will not feel abnormal at first, but after a few months, they will feel severe pain like tearing muscles.
3. Take you to figure out the four main reasons why the fascia gun damages muscles!
Is the fascia gun an IQ tax? There are indeed a lot of inferior fascia guns, and it's no wonder that it has been complained by many people as an IQ tax, so what is the reason why the fascia gun damages muscles? Judging from the following statistical chart of the causes of muscle injury of the full**segment fascia gun in the authoritative health ** inventory, the fascia gun will appear *** often because of the following four reasons. I hope you can be more careful after reading it and avoid it in a targeted manner!
Reason 1: Blindly start with big European and American brands
Many friends will blindly admire European and American brands and think that their products are better, but what everyone doesn't know is that European and American brands are designed with reference to European and American fitness crowds at the beginning. In fact, the development of domestic professional brands is very rapid, and the fascia guns produced are not worse than those of European and American brands in all aspects, and they are much more cost-effective, and they are more suitable for the muscle characteristics of Chinese people, which can bring you a better experience.
Reason 2: Use a fascia gun that is not suitable for your own muscle state
Under the influence of various factors such as region, age, food culture, etc., everyone's muscle characteristics are unique and different, and everyone should also combine their own muscle characteristics when buying a fascia gun.
Reason 3: Choose Internet celebrity brands and cross-border brands
Many fascia gun brands choose to use Internet celebrities to bring goods, celebrity endorsements and other ways to attract consumers, such brands are basically looking at the fascia gun in the past two years before entering the industry, there is no professional technology precipitation, and they are not willing to spend time and energy to repeatedly optimize the core parameters of the fascia gun such as hitting accuracy and hitting strength, but they are overinvested in marketing and publicity, such products not only have poor performance, but also easy to damage muscles.
Reason 4: Choose a low-cost fascia gun
In order to compete in the market, businesses have launched low-cost products, some fascia guns are priced at less than 300 yuan, which seems to be cost-effective, but as the old saying goes, you get what you pay for, the production cost of this kind of low-cost fascia guns is generally excessively compressed by merchants, brush motors, inferior bearings, ** batteries, etc. are their commonly used components, fascia guns have no safety guarantee, the failure rate is very high, the hitting strength is unstable, the hitting trajectory is often excellent, so the risk of muscle injury is very high.
Fourth, eight fascia gun purchase tips to help you stay away from IQ tax products!
Is the fascia gun an IQ tax? Many friends are entangled in whether to start a fascia gun, and the root cause is that they are worried about choosing an unprofessional fascia gun and paying IQ tax in vain. In order to help you choose professional and high-quality products, I have summarized eight fascia gun purchase tips.
Trick 1: Use a fascia gun with a deep enough amplitude.
If the amplitude of the fascia gun you choose is too small, the massage strength is difficult to reach the deep muscles and fascia, the massage effect will be poor, it is recommended that you choose a fascia gun with an amplitude of more than 8mm, in order to massage the deep fascia, friends with fitness habits are more suitable to use the fascia gun with an amplitude of more than 10mm, to ensure that the deep muscles and fascia can be fully massaged.
Tip 2: Don't blindly pursue high thrust
The thrust of the fascia gun directly affects the massage effect, the thrust should be selected according to the user's muscle endurance, the average person can use the fascia gun with a thrust between 10kg-20kg, if the thrust of the fascia gun is too large, it is easy to damage the muscles when used, and if the thrust is too small, it is difficult to fully massage and relax the muscles.
Trick 3: The fascia gun should not be too light or too heavy
The weight of the fascia gun you choose is best between 600g-1000g. If it is too light, the pressure sensation is insufficient when using the fascia gun, and it is easy to make a mistake, which not only affects the massage effect, but also easily causes muscle damage. It is also not recommended to choose an excessively heavy fascia gun, which is more difficult to hold.
Tip 4: It is best to choose a product equipped with a brushless motor
The motor of the mainstream fascia gun is divided into two types: brushless motor and brushed motor, brushless motor is more worthy of choice, its performance is more outstanding, the working noise is relatively low, the service life is longer, and it can bring you a better massage experience. The brush motor is low in cost, poor in performance, not very good in hitting stability, serious heating problem, easy to hurt muscles, joints and bones when used.
Trick 5: Identify the pros and cons of mini guns and big guns
The fascia gun on the market can be divided into two categories: mini type and large gun, mini type fascia gun is small in size and easy to carry, but in terms of performance, it is only suitable for a few thin women, and men and friends with exercise habits should still choose big guns, because the performance of big guns is more excellent, which can help you massage and relax your muscles more fully.
Trick 6: The vibration frequency is between 2000-3500 min
The vibration frequency of the fascia gun also needs to be selected according to the tolerance of your muscles, ordinary people use the fascia gun with a vibration frequency between 2000-3500 min, if the vibration frequency of the fascia gun you use exceeds 4000r min, it is likely to damage the muscles when used, resulting in bruising, muscle swelling and pain and other problems.
Trick 7: Choose a fascia gun with high hitting accuracy
Only the fascia gun has a high enough hitting accuracy to accurately hit the position that needs to be massaged and relaxed, if you choose the fascia gun with low hitting accuracy, it is difficult for the user to hold the fascia gun for a long time, and it may hit the wrong and cause damage to the body! Many low-priced fascia guns do a pretty poor job of this!
Trick 8: Don't choose Internet celebrities to bring goods and celebrity endorsement products
The cost of those celebrity endorsements and Internet celebrities bringing goods is actually relatively low, and when there is an event, the quality of the fascia gun is generally poor, and it is easy to malfunction when used, and there are problems such as unstable power output and insufficient compatibility.
Have you learned the tips for choosing a fascia gun?

5. Five prohibited positions for fascia guns
Is the fascia gun an IQ tax? The benefits of the fascia gun only act on the soft tissues of the muscles, and now the massage position of the fascia gun is not right, not only can not experience these benefits, but also may damage the muscles, so you must stay away from the following positions when using the fascia gun.
1. Armpits
The armpit has a large amount of lymphoid tissue, and if a fascia gun is used here, it may irritate the lymphoid tissue, which can cause swelling and inflammation, causing adverse reactions.
2. Both sides of the neck
There are a large number of nerves and blood vessels in the neck, and the muscles are only a thin layer, if you blindly use a fascia gun to hit, it is likely to cause nerve damage, or even more serious cervical spine problems.
3. Raised joints
Bony protruding joints cannot be treated with fascia guns, which can easily damage joints, resulting in joint inflammation and cartilage contusion.
4. Head
The head is a very sensitive position, and the muscles are very thin, even if it is a slight collision in daily life, there is a risk of brain **, and it is not suitable for impact with a high-frequency fascia gun.
5. Thorax and abdomen
Under the chest and abdomen are dense internal organs, this position is soft and fragile, and if the fascia gun is used, it may cause damage to vital organs such as the heart, kidneys, lungs, etc.
Is the fascia gun an IQ tax? This concludes the explanation of this issue. Those inferior products on the market with no technical strength not only have poor massage results, but also are easy to damage muscles, which is a proper IQ tax product. However, for those professional fascia guns that will make technical adjustments to the parameters of the product, they are not only not IQ taxes, but also can help us relax our muscles and relieve fatigue, so we must carefully buy fascia guns.
