Sigvaris Performance Sports Running Compression Socks 20-30mhhg
- The Performance socks from SIGVARIS the best thing that can happen to your running! A combination of first-class functional fibres ensure controlled compression, increased performance & protection in one
- ideally adapted to the different areas of the leg. Outstanding wearing comfort through functional moisture regulation, optimum temperature control and effective odour reduction. An allround concept for many laps round the track, in the forest on the pitch or in the gym. How compression works during sports Muscle vibration/ Oscillation The compression fabric acts like a stabilising support & ensures a significant reduction in muscle vibration; the number of tears in the muscle fibre is reduced, which increases muscle performance. It also reduces delayed onset muscle soreness (DOMS, reduces muscle injuries, & reduces cramps which means that you can have less pain after training and/or train as frequently as your training plan requires. Joint stabilisation The more stable the muscles are, the more finely balanced the action of the ligaments & joints (knee joint, ankle joint). Wear is reduced, in particular in the region of the Achilles tendon, & relief can also be provided for chronic inflammatory complaints. Enhanced proprioception Muscle activation enhances body sensitisation; athletes feel better, more stable, stronger & more «toned», improving your sensory awareness
- infact athletes often run faster & with a longer stride in Sigvaris compression products Improved arterial inflow Compression increases arterial inflow, which improves the blood supply to the muscles. An enhanced blood supply means that the muscles are supplied with more oxygen, which leads to increased performance. Accelerated venous return Finely calibrated pressure distribution on the leg. This speeds up the return of the blood & improves the removal of metabolic substances (e.g. lactates) from the muscle. Accelerated venous return ensures lighter legs, because there is less fluid retention in the tissues
- it also means that if you wear your socks after exertion your legs recover faster & better. Thermal regulation While an enhanced blood supply generally shortens recovery, thermoregulatory effects in addition support the regenerative processes of the socks
