Red Light Therapy Benefits for Athletes
Elite athletes spend every waking hour and even their sleeping hours trying to improve their bodies – which, in theory, will improve their overall performance. Accelerating muscle recovery, optimizing strength and endurance, and improving mental sharpness are all goals for athletes, their coaches, and trainers.
One of the most notable solutions to come onto the athletic training scene is red light therapy. Red light therapy, also known as photobiomodulation, is a natural and pro-metabolic process that
helps the body create more energy and eliminate oxidative stress. Red light penetrates muscle tissues, joints, and nerves at a cellular level.
Studies have shown that RLT enhances muscle growth and strength, lowers lactic acid levels, and minimizes muscle damage. Red light increases cellular metabolic function while reversing and preventing oxidative stress at a cellular level. The result has been increased energy levels, faster muscular recovery, and optimized strength and endurance training.
The key to upping athletes’ performance is increasing their strength. More and more athletes are using red light therapy before training to enhance muscle strength. Red light therapy increases energy production and cell strength. Athletes have also found that with RLT, they increase their muscle mass during strength training.
Endurance is another critical aspect of athletic performance. For athletes, photobiomodulation is most helpful before and after training sessions. Undergoing red light therapy before and after
endurance training can improve oxygen intake, elevate energy production and reduce fatigue.
By promoting cellular regeneration and reducing inflammation in muscles, tendons, and joints, red light therapy helps speed up recovery after workouts. Better recovery periods help athletes
reach their optimal performance levels in less time.
