The “Get-together” of the specialist industry

Successful TOGU training and networking event on 6 April with 200 participants

One  day  before  the  start  of  the FIBO  trade  fair , on  6 April , TOGU  organised  an  industry  meeting  in  the  congress  centre of Cologne Trade Fair. The  International  TOGU Day  has  become a popular  training  and  networking  event  in the industry. The prime manufacturer of air-filled training  and  therapy equipment  presented  a diverse theoretical and  practical  programme around  the subject  “Focusing on the fasciae in training and therapy”  to participants  and  partners from the industry.

This  year’s  speakers  included  Dr.  Robert  Schleip, Gabi Fastner and Christoph Stumpf.
Dr.  Robert  Schleip  (Director  of  the Fascia  Research  Group , Ulm  University):
“Targeted trainability of the fasciae: What does current research say?”
“More than ever, the subject of “Fasciae” is in the limelight in sports,  medicine  and  fitness. Our  goal  is  to  explain, discuss and differentiate  research statuses,  facts  and  speculations. This is the only  way  of  making  this  subject  transparent  and guaranteeing safety. The  TOGU  Day  was  the  ideal  platform for this, as well as being great fun.”

Gabi  Fastner  (trainer  and  speaker  for  fitness  and  gymnastics):
“Fascia release with the Actiroll® and TOGU fascial circuit: stable and dynamic.”
“The  TOGU  Day  is  the  perfect  networking  event  for the industry. Participants are provided with a diverse programme  about  a  current subject. The  combination  of  a practical part where  numerous  different pieces of TOGU training equipment are  provided  and  exciting  theoretical  presentations  is unique and an absolute highlight to start FIBO.”

Wolfgang Moosleitner (TOGU Sales Manager)
“The  participants’  feedback  from  the  International  TOGU  Day  is  fantastic  and
confirms  our  goal  of  making  this  day  a  regular  training  and networking event before FIBO starts. All presentations were met with great enthusiasm by the approximately 200 experts.”

The subject of “Fasciae” is more popular than ever

Thanks to medical research, this topic is becoming increasingly tangible,  enriching sports and fitness. Because every body structure is surrounded by fasciae.
This connective tissue is very important for an athlete’s performance
as  well  as  for  prevention and rehabilitation. A  well  trained  and  integrated  fascia network
affects  strength  development  and  transmission,  it  optimises  the  resilience  of tendons
and  ligaments  and  prevents  muscle  injury.  TOGU  has  developed  flexible  and innovative sports products for the appropriate training. The air-filled Actiroll® is the
first  fascia roll  where the  degree of  firmness  can  be  adjusted  seamlessly , by pump , to the needs  of
the individual user.
