Men's Compression Wear

Compression wear has been used in medicine for years to aid recovery after surgery. Now it has been proven to improve performance and recovery for a wide range of sports including running. It is now widely used by professional atheletes and compression is now increasingly popular for all levels of runner.

Runners can use compression wear to aid recovery, to help increase blood flow to the legs following long training runs or races. Compression can also be worn during running to improve performance - run further and faster.

All compression wear, whether it be tights, tops or socks promotes blood flow through the body. This in turns enables the body to remove lactate from the blood at a faster rate to help muscles repair more efficiently post exercise. It also helps deliver oxygen and fuel to the muscles to enhance performance.

During running or other exercise the compression wear gives the wearer a greater level of agility and stability through increased proprioception. This can also help with running technique.

Compression also reduces muscle oscillation during running or exercise that is a major cause of muscle fatigue. With reduced fatigue in your muscles you are able to run with greater endurance and strength.
