Many have asked while running why I wear compression sock sleeves over calves and shins. The answer is simple: Compression improves performance and improves blood flow while limiting lactic acid build up. (lactic build up is the destroyer of distance running.)Imagine this: Your leg is a two lane highway with little to medium traffic at rest. Now you're racing or training hard which equals rush hour. The result: traffic jams, delays in arrival and return. Major lactate acid build up resembles new construction sites....it will only get worse from here.
I choose SKINS COMPRESSION. There are many brands. It doesnt matter. A deeper look reveals that compression improves performance.
"There are also performance enhancing capabilities to compression wear. It will not make you jump higher but instead will delay muscle fatigue which would allow you to jump at a maximum height for a longer period of time."
Think Skins.
