Compression tights have been available for many years now and have become a major force in the Cycling industry. Compression tights are worn by professional cyclists when competing for competitions. Compression tights are also worn by people who ride amateur, they really have come to a point where they are an essential piece of equipment or item of clothing in the industry the compression tights that some marathon runners are also very popular, however their popularity has not been reached to a level where they are industry standard. There are many pro’s and con’s using compression tights as I shall be explaining throughout this post, so you can buy the best ones available. Firstly the compression tights are worn for many reasons. Compression tights are actually especially made leggings which are meant to fit comfortably and tights against your lower body. They are meant to mould to the sports person lower body, freely allowing it you to move, where obviously freedom and ease of movement, in sport, is essential and paramount to being successful. Due to the nature of the compression tights they scientifically help enhance smoothness and flow of blood circulation around the body. These great pieces of sportswear also help oxygen around the body enabling the sports star to move at speed and to the best of his ability. They help for moisture to exfoliate from the skin and helps sweat to be released from the sportsman or woman. The compression tights keep the sports person at a perfect temperature which can help to give them the greatest performance their body can possibly achieve. In test by top leading scientists and sports physiotherapists have come to a conclusion that the compression tights give maximum durability in game and training and give them maximum power. The Compression tights must be comfortable to work perfectly or you could be doing more damage than doing good. Should the compression tights not be comfortable they may be restricting the athlete, which means the sportsman or woman man not be getting the best ability they can possibly achieve, where split seconds and inches make the difference optimum performance is mandatory. Firstly when picking your compression tights do take time to try on ones which you feel comfortable in. Just because your favourite athlete wears a certain brand of compression tights, this does not mean that the same pair will fit your body perfect. Some compression tights fit smaller and petite bodies better, where some fit larger or bulkier bodies better. However, when buying, this information will be present. Some of these compression tights come in a range of colours but because most athletes wear the plain black or white ones; these are the main colours, and however looking and searching around will allow you to find different coloured compression tights. Most stars choose to wear compression tights as they have also been known to reduce the risk of injury pulling muscles, because of keeping your body at a great temperature. Common sports that utilise compression tights have notably been rugby, cycling, marathons and basketball. Many other running sports and Olympic Games have also used compression tights. Currently the Compression tights available are the best ones yet. They totally light, flexible, none irritating and have guarantees that last for reasonable periods of time. Through trial and error and technological advancements it is very rare that you will have problem will ripping your compression tights. The material made is that stretchy that they are virtually impossible to rip (the best ones are). Compression tights come in a number of brands and prices, ranging from cheap to a little more. They are generally cheap and will last you a long time if you wash them correctly. There will be instructions on how to wash you compression tights with the packaging as many of them are made with different materials; many of them are washed in different way. I tend to hand wash all of my Compression tights, or more to the point my lovely wife offers to. I usually leave them to dry on low heat radiators, I have never had a pair that has shrunk but rather than doing what I do, I would suggest reading the instructions for your individual compression tights before you go and do something like this. The brands that have become popular in Compression tights have been those such as Puma and DHB. 2XU are actually my favourite brand and I have used their compression tights for many years now, with no problems. Compression tights have recently come into fashion where basketball stars have begun wearing them such as LeBron james and other major game players. A vogue magazine has done a feature on them for their sense of style rather than the greatness it can do to sportsmen. If you’re anything like me I can assure that you won’t be wearing these compression tights out in public, unless you’re after a certain amount of attention, attention that I’m sure my wife wouldn’t agree on. lol. But seriously whatever spot you are involved in definitely consider getting some great compression tights. I couldn’t go and compete in my marathon without wearing them, once you use them it’s difficult to go back to wearing shorts and even harder to go back to wearing none, I would recommend any of the brands I have mentioned, also there are many other brands of compression tights that are great. I’ve used many different brands and to be fair none of them have let me down to this day. Attempt to buy a few pairs so if you train two days in a row you don’t have to wear the same pair twice, because they can get seriously sticky if you don’t wash them. Also of course wash your compression tights every time you use them for hygiene and health purposes. Wear them under your team shorts or whatever you wear for your sport, just remember that maximum ability is essential in sport and if anything helps, it really is worth getting.

Compression Shirt | Compression Shirts
The Compression Shirt will come in all shapes and sizes however it is important to mention that the size of the shirt doesn’t matter too much because of the way they fit. The Compression shirt do come in many colours but however due to the nature of the compression shirt (they are used for sport) it is very common that they generally come in either black or white. Before I get into the different types of compression shirt I will explain to you what exactly they do, and why the compression shirt is needed so much in sport. In sport small amounts of time and small amounts of space make all the difference. So maximum performance can make or break a game. The Compression shirt is there to help make that performance the best it can possibly be. Although you may be thinking, “its just shirt”, a compression shirt can help players to make moves around fast, and give them the ability and agility that is needed. In many sports the compression shirt is worn under whatever you may be wearing for your team. For example if you play football, you may use a compression shirt as the fundamental layer under your other garments. It is essential that you feel totally comfortable wearing you compression shirt and also that it isn’t restricting your movement in any way.
The Compression shirt will keep the heat in your body, without the heat your muscles and other inside components can become cold. This is how many injuries occur, through the body not being at the right temperature. When cold muscles attempt to stretch they end up pulling, straining or even snapping, a good body temperature is essential in sport. Compression shirts don’t just help keep the bottom half of you warm it keeps the bottom half of you warmer, because the warmth is carried down your body to your legs to, however it is also good to wear compression tights too. Most Compression shirt garments are tight fitted which fit wonderfully around the athletes body, which should feel comfortable (as stated earlier). It helps to keep the blood circulating around the body, without a compression shirt, in some sports, the blood will not flow around the body as it should. This can lead to serious problems with the athlete should the situation not be resolved straight away. The material used to ultra light weight and will not weight you down and should restrict you in anyway, it should almost feel like you’re topless. That is how comfortable compression shirt should be. The Sweat is generated from the heat of the body. It is then drawn away from the body leaving the athlete very cool and dry, rather than wet and sticky (which other shirts can do to you).
Compression shirt clothing pieces have also become popular with woman and sometimes men who have an excessively large breasts or cheats’ which can alter their performance, in a bad way. In this case the compression shirt is used to hold in excess fat or muscle to stop them from moving around whilst they are training, similar to how a sports bra works. The Compression shirt does definitely show the physique of the person wearing them, so for this reason they have been used in many advertisements of sport. A Compression shirt are not just worn because the athlete wants to, sometimes they are worn because it is compulsory. In sports such as rugby and AFL the player’s team shirts are compression shirts in different colours with their team’s logo on the front of them. The reason they are often used in rugby is so it is harder to tackle a player, this can be seen when the shirt is pulled is expands over a large distance. For you I would definitely suggest a compression shirt, especially for sports which are played outdoors, these sports need their participants to wear a compression shirt because the cold weather can often make muscles cold and then the player is in risk of pulling a muscle. Cyclists, basket ballers, rugby players and many more have used them in the past and still use them to this day. There are more pro’s than con’s in wearing a compression shirt, and the dangers of not wearing one in certain sports can cost a player his or her career. There are many different companies that supply compression shirts and they all come in different shapes and sizes, for example puma and UXL are common brands for the compression shirt and they make a basic compression shirt with a good fit. There are other companies that make compression shirt with a strap that goes between your legs, almost like a leotard. These are used by weight lifters mainly, and other various similar sports. There is also a long sleeved compression shirt, short sleeved and the neck can also vary, from a V neck to the common and popular turtle neck compression shirt. All in all whatever shape your brand or colour you desire, there will most definitely be one that is suited for you. The Compression shirt has recently become a new fashion item as well and compression garments have been seen in famous fashion magazines such as vogue, for this reason they are now available in more places than before, the compression shirt and pieces you see of a similar nature are made of the same material. They often come in more different colours than the conventional sports compression shirt. In the future the compression shirt will probably get lighter and stretchier as they have done in the last few years. The compression shirt available now is actually the best ones we have ever had the opportunity to wear thanks to many of the leading brands. In the past the compression shirt may have been uncomfortable, but thanks to technology the lyrca, (or whatever material they use) does not restrict the sports star in any way whatsoever, and gives the player to opportunity and chance to really reach their maximum performance, don’t let your team down by not wanting to achieve the best performance you can, look around for a great compression shirt for you and take advantage of the comforts that they provide.
