Young, mature or in between, we all need to exercise and exercise a lot.
To make a difference. In our quest for better health.
Sometimes there is a painful companion to better health. Remember, no pain, no gain?
We have someone in our circle who used to be an athlete, for years got too busy with life and is now taking working out very seriously. Like, every day seriously. And you know how he realizes he is making progress?
He is in extreme pain.
There is good news. Make that great news. There is a solution for everything and there is a global sports luminary leading the way. Remember this?
From Femcompetitor Magazine.
“You didn’t really think that she was going to lose in the first round of the mighty 2022 US Open, did you?
Under the lights? To a record sold out crowd?
With tennis legends John McEnroe and Chris Everett calling her match?
With special messages from some of the world’s most influential power brokers like Oprah Winfrey?
The foundation of women’s tennis in Billie Jean King?
No you didn’t.
Some people did. But most important?
Serena didn’t.
As reported by the global news source CNN, “Serena Williams, playing in what is likely the final tennis tournament of her storied career, opened singles play with a 6-3, 6-3 victory over Danka Kovinić in the first round of the US Open at Arthur Ashe Stadium.”
Oh, the memories.
No doubt, due to injuries and strains, Serena has suffered through massive pain. Just like she figured out her opponents on the courts, Serena has figured out how to recover from injury and reduce pain off of the courts.
Check it out.

A Collection of Topical Pain Relief and Daily Muscle Care Solutions Designed to Redefine Recovery and Ritualize Self-Care
NEW YORK, Dec. 8, 2022 /PRNewswire/ — As a groundbreaking follow-up to her evolution from tennis, legendary champion, entrepreneur, designer, founder and managing partner, Serena Williams has teamed up with two CPG veterans to launch Will Perform, a line of clean, cruelty-free topical pain relief and daily muscle care solutions designed to reimagine recovery – as both a concept and a category. Intended for athletes and anyone leading an active lifestyle, the launch assortment will include five products, spanning four categories: WILL Relieve™, WILL Cool™, WILL Rest™ and WILL Soothe™. The Relieve and Cool products offer pain relief while the Soothe and Rest products offer daily skin and muscle care. This unique lineup is intended to elevate the current recovery category’s usage occasions as well as create new usage occasions that bridge the gap between performance and self-care in everyday life. Williams’ co-Founders are Hank Mercier, a seasoned CPG executive and Will Perform’s CEO, and Eric Ryan, the serial entrepreneur behind eco-friendly household brand method, nutrition brand OLLY and First Aid brand Welly. Will Perform launches DTC December 8th and at Target stores and on Target.com beginning December 18th.
“Recovery has played an integral role in my performance and professional success. It’s a practice that can benefit anyone with an active lifestyle. That belief is what inspired us to develop a line of products that targets your muscles and can be incorporated into your daily self-care routine,” says Williams.
Williams has often credited her recovery practice as having been a key ingredient in her performance over the years, with her daily recovery rituals helping her enjoy prolonged and sustained professional success. In conceptualizing and developing Will Perform, she drew on the experience of her nearly three-decade-long athletic career to add something to the category that she knew first-hand was underrepresented. Williams and the team considered a long list of factors including formula efficacy, ingredients, design, application, and scent to create a line of products that could be enjoyed as part of an everyday routine. By doing so, Will Perform is reframing recovery as performance care, a subtle but significant shift that Williams hopes will invite both athletes and anyone with an active lifestyle to adopt the practice to ensure active and healthy lifestyles.
“I love transforming the mundane into a new experience that consumers will be excited to incorporate into their daily lives,” says Co-Founder Eric Ryan. “You can’t expect people to adopt a ritual if it’s not enjoyable, and that’s where Will Perform feels truly disruptive. These are beautifully designed and thoughtfully formulated self-care products that consumers will look forward to using.”
With Will Perform’s collection of accessible treatments, it’s now easier than ever to create space in life for holistic and routine performance solutions. There is no charge without recharge™.
