Nike undergear on sale

http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed?term=compression clothing

18 pages of journal articles. Use "Pubmed" if you need to search for scientific articles related to health or the biological sciences. You might not be able to view all of these articles unless you have academic library access but you should be able to see all the abstracts. These are all peer-reviewed articles unless they are "letters" or "editorials" which is a bit rare. To check for sponsor bias (ie, has the article been written from a particular viewpoint rather than an unbiased scientific study) check the institution and the acknowledgements page for granting institutions. For instance, if you look at a study on smoking and the acknowledgements page says "research performed under a grant from Phillip Morris Inc" you might be looking at a paper with some sponsor bias.
 
VNM gear rocks on the track and off the track. It does everything it claims to do which is more than I can say about most products out there. I no longer feel sore after a full day of riding. Keeps you cool so you can wear your leathers on the really hot days and still be comfortable and when you're taking a break you leathers slide off.

Back on topic...thanks Wingboy for the info on the sale:)
 
Voodoo.... LOL.

The main benefit is that it makes it easier to get leathers on and off. It also helps stop so much sweat from going into the leathers themselves.

IMO, the rest is plain marketing and voodoo.

Personally speaking all i'm looking for is this ^^^^^^. Now I don't race and some racers may feel the need for more. But then I've never really suffered from muscle fatigue as others seem to do.

The best medical study out there .... +100%
 
The main benefit is wicking sweat away from your body. if you are a fat cat who sits on the couch all day, this gear isnt for you. For the rest of us, its invaluable.

Then you won't be kicking any *** because I've yet to see a fat person do well on any sport or race.

You know, sometimes it's just so damned funny when all these anonymous people make comments about each other :lol:

Not exactly.

The compression may impede blood flow to the muscle but the benefits of helping evacuate blood from the muscle are still a net gain. The continuous exertion of a rider with a 'death grip' on the bars or the repeated flexing of the right forearm from a rider who is hard on the brakes often (think TMP, a track with several hard braking zones) will cause the forearm muscles to swell. All of our muscles are encased in inelastic sacs. If the muscle continues to swell it can expand to fill this muscle sac. At this point the swollen muscle itself is what is restricting blood flow. Now your heart is unable to pump as much blood into the muscle to flush it out and you get arm pump.

Proper fitting compression gear acts to prevent this. Blood is supplied to the muscle tissue deeper below the skin, the effects of the compression gear are less pronounced the deeper you go so the effects of external compression while flexing are relatively limited. Once the muscle is relaxed the external compression helps push blood from the tiny capillaries closer to the surface of the skin into the larger faster flowing blood vessels. Given that the time between braking zones is relatively constant, if you can evacuate lactic acid and blood from the muscle faster it is less likely that your muscle will swell to the extent that it fills the muscle sac and restricts blood flow.

Does that help?

Just say it in laymans terms........it's like a hard on in your forearms!

Forearm pump is basicaly from lack of physical conditioning,,,or reaching the end of your conditioning. There is no way any form of elastic will fix your forearm. The muscle is retricted from expelling blood from the death grip you mention. The only thing that can fix that is relaxing the grip and conditioning.

I'm pretty sure Ben Spies, Hayden etc have pretty good physical conditioning......the only way they fixed it was by having surgery to cut open the muscle sack.
