I got an email asking me if I wanted to try the Bob and Brad Massage Gun.  I quickly responded “Of course.”

Though I already own a massage gun that I love, I wanted to see how and if this one was different and if I liked it better.

First thing I wondered was:

Who are Bob and Brad? Are they real people? Are they Doctors, etc?

Bob and Brad are Brad Heineck and Bob Schrupp.

They are not Doctors but Minnesota-based Physical Therapists.

They are also YouTube sensations thanks to their pain relief videos. In fact, they have 5.02M subscribers to their4.3K videos

Bob and Brad launched this company to sell recovery tools such as massage guns and leg compressors to compete with popular brands like Hypervolt, Theragun, and Normatec.

What are the specs for this massage gun:

Specifications	Details
Weight	1.5lbs
Design	Lightweight and portable design with ergonomic silicone handle
Motor	High-Caliber brushless motor
Max Speed	3200 RPM
Massage Heads and Speeds	5 massage heads and 5 speeds
Charging	USB-C FAST Charging
Noise Level	Ultra-quiet with noise reduction technology (<50dB)

How is it different from my other massage gun:

It offers all-new hot and cold massage therapy.

There are two optimized presets, designed for fast and precise temperature control.

This option offers a solution for individuals with differing needs and pain.

When would you use the Cold setting?

The Cold setting would be particularly valuable for post-surgery recovery or acute sports injuries, where reducing swelling and inflammation is necessary for a speedy recovery.

It also helps in alleviating pain in sore muscles and joints by constricting blood vessels, which reduces blood flow to the affected areas.

And what is the Heat setting for?

The Heat setting could be used to relax muscles and increase blood flow, addressing soreness and stiffness.

This setting would be ideal for chronic pain management or discomfort associated with prolonged physical activity as well as, for those persons with chronic conditions or those recovering from periods of immobility.

It also keeps muscles and joints flexible and thus, prevents stiffness which would be helpful to those persons who regularly engage in activities (such as, running) that may lead to muscle tightness.

Which attachments come with the gun?

• Standard Ball Attachment: Ideal for overall muscle relaxation and recovery.
• Bullet Attachment: Targets specific trigger points and delves into deep-tissue areas for precise relief.
• Fork Attachment: Perfect for massaging along the spine and targeting larger muscle groups.
• Flat Head Attachment: Offers a broader surface area for a gentle and soothing massage (for use with ice or heat settings)
• Cone Attachment: Designed to pinpoint and alleviate tension in smaller muscle areas.

And so I tried them all.

But the standard ball attachment is most likely the one that I will use.

Except when I use the ice or heat settings.

Pros:

• Light weight and portable
• Nice case
• USB-C charging cable
• Heat and Ice Therapy
• Long Battery Life
• Several Attachment Heads
• Cheaper than some of the name brands

Cons:

• None that I found

Would I buy this massage gun?

100% Yes!

It is quiet, powerful, light weight, easy to use, keeps a charge for a long period of time, offers both heat and cold settings and best of all, it is reasonably priced.

I’m pretty sure that my husband (who plays a lot of tennis) and I will be fighting over it.
