A Cyclist and Mechanic on the Power of Leg Relief That Works
If there’s one thing Alberto doesn’t like, it’s losing momentum.
Whether he’s clocking 50-mile rides before breakfast or fixing high-performance bikes in his Lower Manhattan workshop, he’s always in motion.
But that rhythm came at a cost.
“My quads would stay tight for days. Some mornings, I’d wake up with heavy legs and just try to push through it.”
Alberto, 39, is both a competitive cyclist and a full-time mechanic. He stands all day, pedals hard on weekends, and doesn’t have time for post-ride rituals that feel like a chore.
That’s why Flowell became a game-changer.

Compression Recovery That Reaches the Quads and Glutes
After a group ride last spring, a friend handed him their Flowell compression pants.
“Try it for 20 minutes,” they said. “It’ll change your week.”
“It felt like a full reset. I was skeptical, but my legs felt noticeably lighter by the next morning — especially my upper quads and glutes.”
What surprised him most? The coverage.
Unlike most recovery tools that stop mid-thigh, Flowell’s full-length pants go up to the hips and glutes, where many cyclists store tension from long rides and aggressive positions on the saddle.
Designed for Athletes — and Anyone on Their Feet
Alberto now uses Flowell after rides, but also after long days in the shop.
He’ll finish his last tune-up, sit down in the back room, zip up the pants, open the app — and let the compression do its work.
“It’s quiet, easy, and I can still check emails or talk to customers while it runs. That matters.”
Flowell’s smart compression therapy uses air-powered massage to boost circulation, reduce fatigue, and help muscle recovery — all in under 30 minutes.
The Bottom Line? You Can’t Out-Train Bad Recovery
Alberto puts it simply:
“I take training seriously. Now I take recovery just as seriously — and Flowell makes it easy.”
