Tips Straight From the Pro

Focus on enjoying the time spent riding, and commit to training!

What Works

Keep your weight low and centered over the bottom bracket
Look ahead, not down — scan 2–3 bike lengths forward
Feather your brakes, don’t lock them out

What to avoid

Leaning too far back — it reduces control
Gripping the bars too tight (arm pump incoming)
Panicking on loose terrain — trust the bike

Recovery Tips

Use the Novaa Light Pad for 20 minutes on forearms and quads post-ride to reduce arm pump and leg fatigue after long descents.

What Works

Ride light — let the bike move beneath you
Commit to your line early and stay loose
Use hips, not arms, to control direction

What to avoid

Target-fixating on rocks
Braking in the gnar — do it before
Fighting the trail — flow with it

Recovery Tips

Apply the Novaa Light Pad to your knees and lower back post-ride. Combine with deep quad/hip flexor stretches and 5 minutes of foam rolling.

What Works

Dial in your breathing and visualization pre-run
Warm up with activation, not max effort
Trust your prep — don’t overthink lines

What to avoid

Skipping your mobility work
Getting cold at the start gate
Second-guessing your gear setup last minute

Recovery Tips

Post-race, use the Novaa Light Pad on glutes and lower back to flush inflammation. Follow it with light walking and hydration to kickstart recovery.

Is Novaa Red Light Therapy safe and are there any side effects?

Yes, Novaa Red Light Therapy is safe to use at home. Our devices are designed with the highest standards of safety, using medical-grade materials that are durable and non-toxic. Red light therapy is non-invasive and supported by over 3,000 clinical studies validating its safety and effectiveness.

While there are no known long-term negative side effects, here are a few considerations to ensure safe and effective use:

Skin Sensitivity: Some users may experience mild redness or irritation, especially with overuse or if they have sensitive skin. To avoid this, follow the recommended session times and instructions.
Skin Dryness or Tightness: If your skin feels dry after a session, applying moisturizer can help.
Temporary Symptoms: Occasionally, users may notice slight redness or mild discomfort as part of the natural healing process.

Safety Tips:

Use the device as directed, limiting sessions to 10–20 minutes per area, 3–5 times a week.
Avoid prolonged exposure or placing the device too close to the skin to prevent overheating.
If you’re pregnant, breastfeeding, taking photosensitizing medications, or have a history of skin cancer, consult a healthcare provider before starting therapy.
