Recovery tools. Powerdot/Compex vs Theragun and massage gun

Pretty much seconding this… but I will say that in the cases where you’re dealing with more acute symptoms/injuries, there may be some benefit to such devices. As a runner who notoriously had Achilles issues, using something to specifically target my calves was useful because overly tight calves can stress the Achilles more.

Sleep, eating, etc will always win out in the big picture. Of course there’s always the “if it works for you, no reason not to”.
