Women's running compression clothes

What Does Compression Clothing Do?

As the name suggests, compression clothing exerts pressure on various muscle groups in the body. The further a muscle group is from the heart, the more pressure is applied to that muscle. The great advantage of this is that oxygen-poor blood gets an extra push toward the heart, allowing oxygen-rich blood to flow back to the muscles. By wearing compression clothing, you stimulate circulation, bringing more oxygen to the muscles, which positively impacts muscular endurance! The improved circulation also helps to flush out waste products from the muscles, enabling faster recovery.

What Compression Clothing Do I Need?

Do you quickly suffer from injuries? Or experience tired muscles while running? Compression clothing can provide the solution! A compression short, for example, reduces muscle vibrations in the calves and thighs, minimizing muscle fatigue and preventing energy loss. A compression shirt, on the other hand, offers support to your back and abdominal muscles, promoting better posture. Additionally, it enhances breathing, reducing the chance of side stitches!

Tip

A compression short not only provides benefits during running, but its positive effects continue afterward. It is recommended to keep wearing the compression shorts after your run or race to continue experiencing its benefits.
