The comeback kid
When former pro basketballer and current Aussie rules football player Hugh Greenwood tore his MCL, he thought his career might never be the same. RE3 made him think again.
"Comfortable, convenient & it f*cking works."
From American basketball courts to the AFL arena, Hugh Greenwood's journey is anything but ordinary. This 191cm Tasmanian devil is an inside midfielder for North Melbourne, but has played pro around the world. After years rising through the basketball ranks and making a name for himself stateside, Hugh returned home to take on the AFL. In 2021 an MCL tear threatened to sideline him, but Hugh's commitment to recovery and consistent use of his RE3 kept him agile and on the field.
How I fast-tracked my recovery
Hugh's Full Body Recovery Routine
PREPARATION IS KEY
Being an elite athlete means facing heavy tackles. Hugh's warm-up routine incorporates dynamic stretches and plyometric drills to improve agility and prepare his body for the rigours of the game. RE3 goes in the freezer the night before.
Keep Reactive
The MCL tear could have slowed Hugh down, but consistent use of his RE3 Knee Pack pre- and post-game helps him manage pain and maintain the agility he needs to dominate the midfield.
The Finisher
While the RE3 Knee Pack is essential for Hugh, the RE3 Ankle Pack is a valuable addition to his routine. Its ability for improved stability, pain management, and injury prevention has been a game-changer.
"I'm so thankful I found RE3. It's fast-tracked my recovery and keeps me in the game."
Not Just Another Ice Pack
Heading
It’s no exaggeration to say Hugh Greenwood is a global player. On his travels, he’s been exposed to every recovery method under the sun. But none has compared to the RE3 Knee Pack. He initially assumed the RE3 would be like other ice packs – can’t keep cold, impractical and uncomfortable. But the RE3 surprised him. With its extended, 3 hour cold therapy, multi-use design and flexible, phase-change material, it fits effortlessly into Hugh’s regular recovery routine. This allows Hugh to stay mobile and manage pain effectively, keeping him on the field doing what he loves.
