LONG TIGHTS. LET'S TALK ABOUT THEM.
Boost Your Performance and Recovery with SKINS Compression Long Tights
As an athlete, you know the importance of having the right equipment to optimise your performance and recovery. Enter SKINS Compression Long Tights—a game-changer for anyone looking to take their workouts to the next level. But do these tights work, and what makes them different from your regular leggings? Let's dive into the benefits, features, and frequently asked questions about SKINS Compression Long Tights.
The Benefits of SKINS Compression Long Tights
No matter the SERIES, our Long Tights are designed to provide firm support for your calves, glutes, quads, and hamstrings while reducing muscle oscillation. They're made from our patented warp-knit fabric and offer a comfortable yet powerful fit. Here are some key benefits:
Increased Venous Return
Venous return refers to the rate of blood flow back to the heart, and SKINS' gradient compression panelling ensures that blood flows efficiently, reducing fatigue and improving endurance.
Reduced Exercise-Induced Muscle Damage (EIMD)
After an intense workout, muscles can suffer from immediate and lasting damage. Compression helps minimise this damage, allowing for faster recovery and less downtime.
Reduced Delayed Onset Muscle Soreness (DOMS)
DOMS is the muscle pain that starts a day or two after working out but SKINS can help reduce this soreness, making it easier to stick to your fitness routine.
Accelerated Recovery Processes
Our recovery compression aids in speeding up recovery, just as proper hydration, cooldowns, stretching, and nutrition do. By wearing recovery SKINS, you give your muscles the support they need to heal faster.
Faster Removal of Lactic Acid
Lactic acid build-up causes muscle pain and fatigue, but have no fear, SKINS Compression Long Tights help remove lactic acid so you can return to training sooner.
Increased Muscle Oxygenation
Proper oxygen supply is crucial for muscle performance. SKINS tights enhance muscle oxygenation, ensuring your muscles get the oxygen they need during intense workouts.
Improved Body Temperature Control
With improved blood flow and integrated wicking, SKINS Tights help regulate your body temperature, keeping you comfortable whether you're running a marathon or hitting the gym.
Reduced In-Flight Ankle Oedema
If you travel frequently, you know the discomfort of swollen ankles. SKINS Compression Long Tights can help reduce this swelling, making your flights more comfortable.
Increased Strength, Power, and Endurance
SKINS help increase your strength, power, and endurance by improving blood flow, oxygenation, and proprioception. They also reduce muscle oscillation, allowing you to push your limits harder and longer.
Why Choose SKINS Compression Long Tights Over Regular Leggings?
You might wonder, "What's the difference between compression Long Tights and regular leggings?" The answer lies in the technology and benefits that SKINS offer:
Targeted Support
Our Tights have strategically placed panels that stabilise and protect key muscle groups, unlike regular leggings that primarily provide basic or no support.
Gradient Compression
This unique feature ensures that compression is strongest at the extremities and gradually decreases toward the heart, enhancing venous return and reducing muscle fatigue.
Reduced Muscle Oscillation
SKINS Tights reduce the vibrations caused by movement, which helps minimise muscle damage and soreness.
The Role of SKINS Compression Long Tights in Recovery
As you know, recovery is just as important as the workout itself and SKINS Recovery Long Tights are crucial in speeding up the recovery process. They do this by enhancing blood flow and oxygenation, which helps muscles repair and rebuild more quickly. Additionally, the compression aids in the removal of metabolic waste products like lactic acid, which can otherwise cause prolonged muscle soreness and fatigue.
