Combining the benefits of compression sleeves with aero dynamic material to create the ultimate calf sleeves.
Compression sleeves are essentially a pair of footless socks. They’re worn on the lower portion of the leg and cover the calf and shin. Apex Aero Calf sleeves have combined the benefits of compression calf sleeves with aero dynamic material to create the ultimate product.
How Do They Work?
Performance and Recovery
As their name suggests, compression sleeves work by providing gentle compression for your legs. This compression helps improve blood flow to the legs.
When more oxygen-rich blood flows to the legs, this helps push out deoxygenated blood, lactic acid, and other waste products that can promote muscle soreness, inflammation, and swelling.
Research shows that runners who wore compression sleeves experienced a 40% increase in arterial blood flow during activity and a 30% increase during recovery.
This implies that blood was flowing faster through the veins, meaning that deoxygenated blood and waste products were making their way back to the heart faster. This, in turn, increases the runner’s recovery rate and decreases muscle soreness.
