Unlock Peak Shoulder Performance & Prevent Injuries

Are you an athlete looking to gain a competitive edge? Do you want to throw harder, hit further, or serve with more power while minimizing the risk of shoulder injuries? The TAP® Shoulder Tube® is your secret weapon.

Trusted by professional athletes and coaches across MLB, collegiate programs, and youth leagues, the TAP® Shoulder Tube® is a revolutionary arm care tool designed to optimize shoulder health and performance through rhythmic stabilization and dynamic muscle activation.

Unique Oscillation Technology for Superior Results:

Unlike traditional vibration training devices that rely on predictable, bi-directional movements, the TAP® Shoulder Tube® utilizes a patented design to create unique, multi-directional oscillations. This innovative approach, rooted in chaos theory, engages more muscles throughout your shoulder complex by introducing unpredictable movement patterns, forcing your body to adapt and strengthen in a way that traditional training can't replicate. This leads to:

• Enhanced Dynamic Stabilization: Improve your shoulder's ability to stay strong and stable during powerful, sport-specific movements. Think of a baseball pitcher mid-throw – the TAP® Shoulder Tube® helps build the resilience needed to maintain control and precision even with maximum exertion. This aligns with the constraint-led approach, where the tube acts as a constraint, forcing your body to find efficient movement solutions.

• Increased Muscle Activation: Activate a wider range of muscles, including those responsible for rotation and stabilization, for increased strength and power. This is because your nervous system, a key component in dynamic systems theory, learns to coordinate a more complex network of muscles to control the unpredictable oscillations.

• Improved Proprioception: Develop better body awareness and control, leading to more efficient and coordinated movements. By challenging your body with unpredictable forces, the TAP® Shoulder Tube® enhances your sense of where your shoulder is in space, a concept known as proprioception. This heightened awareness translates to smoother, more controlled movements on the field.

How it Works:

The TAP® Shoulder Tube® consists of a solid flexible shaft with cylindrical end-weights and a rubber hand grip at its center. During exercise movement, your grip point acts as the axis of rotation, allowing you to control the oscillation amplitude. As you swing and rotate the tube, the shaft flexes and creates resistance directly proportional to the force exerted by your shoulder muscles. This dynamic resistance, combined with the unpredictable oscillations, challenges your neuromuscular system and promotes:

• Rhythmic Stabilization: Develop the ability to react quickly and efficiently to changing forces, keeping your shoulder joint stable and protected. This principle, central to control theory, trains your muscles to respond effectively to unexpected disturbances, much like a surfer adjusting to a shifting wave.

• Continuous Muscle Engagement: Keep your shoulder muscles engaged throughout the entire range of motion, leading to greater strength and endurance. This constant engagement, similar to the principles of fluid dynamics, ensures consistent force distribution and minimizes stress on individual muscles.

• Reduced Risk of Injury: Strengthen your rotator cuff and surrounding muscles to prevent common shoulder injuries. By promoting balanced muscle development and enhancing joint stability, the TAP® Shoulder Tube® acts as a preventative measure against common overuse injuries.

• Faster Recovery: Accelerate your recovery after intense workouts or competitions by promoting blood flow and reducing muscle soreness. The increased blood flow delivers essential nutrients and oxygen to fatigued muscles, aiding in repair and reducing inflammation.

Benefits You'll Experience:

• Increased throwing velocity and distance
