Compression Leggings

Passing Fad or Performance Enhancer?

Athletes and fitness aficionados swear by compression leggings, wearing them like they’re going out of style (which they aren’t, by the way).

So, what’s all the hype about? Are compression spandex just a passing fad?

Nope. The science is in, and compression gear has proven benefits. It helps optimize performance during workouts and helps with recovery.

Keep reading to discover 7 reasons you should consider wearing men's athletic compression leggings (aka meggings) when you work out.

Improved Muscle Support & Recovery


Compression tights support and stabilize your muscles while you train by absorbing some of the strain as you squeeze your muscles.

They also increase blood flow and muscle oxygenation. This speeds up the muscle repair process and reduces muscle fatigue after workouts. (So you’re ready to grab the rest of the day by the balls.)

One study also found that compression gear makes it easier to regain maximum vertical jumping ability after a workout.

Superior Groin Support


When you’re running, jumping, squatting, and lunging, you want—ahem—everything to stay in place.

Men’s leggings with a molded crotch cup help keep the goods tucked away and concealed.

Without adequate support in the crotch area you’re flying blind, so choose a brand that makes compression leggings specifically for men’s anatomy.

Enhanced Performance


Getting oxygen to your muscles is critical for optimal performance during workouts.

Compression leggings boost the amount of oxygen your muscles receive by increasing blood flow. More oxygen means more energy and power.

Compression meggings also act like a shock absorber, reducing vibrations in skeletal muscles when you run. This can help prevent muscle trauma. (And when your meggings are stylish, they can help prevent other types of fashion trauma, too.)

Greater Comfort


Compression leggings create less friction than traditional athletic gear. They hug your body and stay put, which means less slipping and chafing.

They’re also surprisingly breathable. (Your johnson and his friends will thank you.)

Compression tights for men are typically made of moisture-wicking materials, which bring sweat to the surface of the fabric where it can evaporate quickly. This helps keep you dry during your workouts.

Full Flexibility


Getting oxygen to your muscles is critical for optimal performance during workouts.

Whether you’re mastering yoga poses, running a marathon, or lifting weights, you don’t want extra fabric getting in your way.

Compression leggings and tops give you complete freedom of movement. (You can do backflips without worrying about back rips.)

And they can help you improve your technique during workouts, since they let you see the biomechanics of your movements.

Less Muscle Soreness


When you work your muscles hard, fluid and white blood cells rush to the area to repair the muscle tissue. This can lead to swelling and soreness. (No, thank you.)

By constricting the muscles, compression leggings reduce fluid buildup. This means less soreness.

Compression gear also boosts blood flow, which helps removes creatine kinase, an enzyme that causes achy muscles.

Style

Getting oxygen to your muscles is critical for optimal performance during workouts.

Compression tights help you show off the physique you work so hard for. When you look good, you feel good. And when you feel good, you’re motivated to work even harder.
