2XU elite compression tights - How did I get by without them?
I was a little slow off the mark discovering compression tights until I was introduced to 2xu this year and now I am wondering how I ever got by without them. I have practically been living in my compression tights for the last 6 weeks of racing here in the States and can honestly say that the legs feel a whole heap better after wearing them for a couple of hours a day.
So how do they work..
Well 2XU is known for it's advanced technology in the line of elite sports performance clothing so they set about making the only 'all purpose compression garments constructed using a circular high guage knit structure'. This means that the tights evenly deliver '360 degree stretch compression' which can not be done on standard tricot knit. What these means for the athlete is that your legs get faster and more accurate recovery from these tights, and all you have to do is put them on..
The compression tights also
- improve circulation by encouraging blood to run to the muscles and flushing out by-products.
- cut back fatigue by reducing muscle vibration which also aids muscle strength/endurance.
- speed up recovery through the use of the 'therapeutic rated fabric' therefore creating more effective repair to the muscles.
You don't have to be an elite athlete to use these tights. They can be of benefit to anyone who just likes to exercise, but they are by far one of the best inventions I've ever come across and I certainly won't be leaving home without them..
