Compression Wear

compression tightsAs an athlete you will always be seeking the best ways to increase performance, minimize injury and improve your experience of your chosen discipline. Compression clothing has been around a while, and gained huge attention when Australian Cathy Freeman ran to an Olympic gold medal in 'whole body' compression suit.

Well, compression tights and other compression clothing accessories are now available to everyone and can be found in a high street store, and the benefits are huge. Many athletes and other sports persons swear by the use of this sports wear and here are some reasons why.

 

Running Compression Tights

compression leggingsRunning compression tights and similar garments for other sports are quite different to medical compression stockings, although they work in a similar way. They are designed to provide the best support to the muscles of the legs and lower body, thus minimizing the chance of a muscle injury occurring. They are also designed to aid the flow of blood and the oxygen supply to the lower body and extremities, as well as reducing lactic acid build up. The chances of varicose veins and other leg conditions is reduced. The ultra supportive nature of compression socks, tights and shorts has been found to aid athletic performance and recovery noticeably.

Whether you are looking for mens running tights, running socks or other compression wear, they all achieve a similar result, you will just find that cyclists tights and runners tights will be tailored a little differently to suit the activity they are designed for. They all use similar manufacturing technology, in which special fabric bands are incorporated into the compression tights to provide that tight, armour like, hugging effect. Another great benefit is that these tights provide a really good wicking effect, providing good moisture management to keep your body dry. The materials used also have a UV resistance which helps protect you from the sun.

It's important to choose the right clothing for your sport, size and sex. Mens compression tights are often made slightly differently from those designed for women, and some of the top brands available are:

  • 2XU Compression Tights  
  • CWX Tights  
  • Skins Compression Tights  
  • Sigvaris Compression Stockings  

Selecting a set of compression shorts, socks or tights from one of these companies will ensure a quality long lasting effective product whether you are a runner, cyclist, or individual training for your first triathlon. THe Nike clothing range is also excellent.
