Los Angeles, CA, March 20, 2014 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- TITIN has scored a goal this year as they announced that they will be sponsoring the starting right back from the MLS side Toronto FC, Mark Bloom. As a 26-year-old Georgia local, Bloom plays as a starting defender on one of the top five most expensive MLS teams. TITIN has been providing athletes of all professions with patented workout gear for years and Mark Bloom's drive for fitness and quick results makes this partnership with TITIN a perfect fit.
Patrick Whaley, Founder and Developer of TITIN states, "Mark Bloom has not only showed greatness in athletics, but in recovery as well. He is an extraordinary player and we are glad to have him on our team!" This dynamic partnership is sure to make more wins in the athletic world.
It is no surprise the two great leaders in athletics have joined forces. Mark Bloom was part of Atlanta's NASL Spring Season Championship and before going pro, Bloom played collegiate soccer at Berry College where he led his team to two conference titles. Before graduating, he received the M.V.P title his senior year. However, like many athletes' worst fear, Bloom suffered an injury in February keeping him on and off the sidelines throughout the season. Bloom started in 12 games and logged 1,080 minutes for the club, but was now opposed by English International Bradley Orr for his starting position. He was determined to keep his starting role and went into rehab determined and focused. For better results, he geared up with TITIN to rehabilitate and recovered at an accelerated pace. Because Bloom worked out with the TITIN Force™ weighted shirt system, he was able to fully recover 3x faster than expected, and won the job over a still injured Orr. He is now scheduled as the starting defender for Toronto against Seattle FC on Saturday.
The TITIN compression gear Mark Bloom used to recover is patented, form-fitting, weighted apparel that evenly distributes gel inserted weights throughout the body. The shirt system provides fitted training gear for workouts of all disciplines. TITIN products have done wonders for professional and amateur athletes as well.
