What Massage Gun Does Dustin Poirier Use?

Dustin Poirier uses the Theragun PRO massage gun together with the RecoveryAir PRO compression boots to help him recover from his grueling training sessions.

A professional fighter since 2009, Poirier knows a thing or two about performing on the highest level. “Recovery is just as important as my training,” the UFC lightweight said. “[Therabody] gets me recovered faster to keep me working harder and harder for each training session.”

The announcement of the partnership with Los Angeles, California-based Therabody came just a few days before Poirier clashed with Conor McGregor for the third time at UFC 264, a fight that he won in the first round after McGregor had suffered a broken tibia.

Poirier, who at the time of the announcement was ranked #1 in the UFC lightweight rankings and #6 in the UFC men’s pound-for-pound rankings, is the first mixed martial artist to become a Therabody Athlete.

The UFC, bantamweight and featherweight champion Amanda Nunes, and former strawweight champion Zhang Weili have partnerships with Therabody competitor Hyperice.
