Follow on Google News | How Compression Apaprel Works.By: SLS3 Compression garments use outside pressure on the muscles. This improves blood flow inside the muscles and surrounding connective tissue. The precondition for optimal oxygen and nutrient provision of muscles is an essentially even blood flow. This even blood flow is hard to achieve while standing upright, so several different mechanisms have to support the backflow of blood to the heart. This is so important because 85% of the entire fluid volume in the body is being found in the venous system. External mechanical pressure e.g. from compression garments causes a volume redistribution from superficial to deep venous system. This in turn causes an increase in flow rate in the deep venous system. This effect is often equated to a higher evacuation of metabolic waste products and better oxygen supply in the muscles, ergo: improved performance. During exercise e.g. cycling, running, skiing another effect is added: Inside the veins are venous valves located in regular intervals. Created in pairs they prevent any venous back flow in the direction of the extremities (legs) which happens in between every heartbeat. At the same time the veins are being compressed through muscle contraction ("muscle vein pump"). This transports the blood volume from one venous valve to the next in the direction of the heart. In the event this mechanism is disturbed or overworked (e.g. physical activity), the veins expand and that makes the venous valves insufficient (limited functionality) What should you pay attention to? Based on the named effects any compression wear in sports is only useful if the pressure flow is anatomically matched. This means the compression is strongest at the ankles and continually gets less over the knee and to the thigh. This is called "graduated compression" What do we learn? According to our research (based on the results of 37 international sport compression studies) it is beneficiary to wear compression garments during exercise if you: 1) want to improve maximal strength, sprint performance and jumping height, 2) want to influence your oxygen intake and lactate concentration (endurance), 3) want to increase your stamina. For compression during recovery you should know that: 1) Lactate concentration tends to go away quicker while wearing compression wear, 2) Muscle pain and swelling is reduced through wearing of compression gear, 3) Maximal jumping, sprint and power performance recover quicker while wearing compression gear.
