Running Compression Socks
VO2fx® graduated compression technology was perfected after years of research and development with leading medical facilities, athletes and physicians.
As a result, you get all the medical benefits of graduated compression, in the ultimate high performance running sock.
The graduated compression system in VO2fx® increases the circulation to the muscles
in your legs and feet, and because of this your legs feel energized within minutes of putting them on.
The easiest way to remember what graduated compression is doing for you is to remember that any time you can increase fresh blood supply to working muscles – it’s a good thing!
The enhanced circulation of fresh oxygenated blood to your muscles, joints and tendons enables them to operate more efficiently. Meanwhile, lactic acid and other fluids are transported out of muscle tissue and into the bloodstream, which dramatically reduces muscle soreness and painful swelling after a race or heavy training session.
All of this physiological action means the following:
While your opponents are getting sore and heavy, your legs feel fresh and light.
Your speed is improved and so is your endurance – it’s been clinically proven.
But it’s your speed of recovery between races or training runs that really hits you. One clinical study of runners in a vigorous 10K road race, and the degree to which they experienced DOMS (delayed onset muscle soreness) 72 hours after the race:
7% of runners wearing regular ankle socks reported no DOMS at all.
86% of runners wearing graduated compression socks reported no DOMS at all.
Now, don’t you think you have an advantage if you can go out again and train hard while your opponent is restricted to light runs or no workouts at all until their legs feel better?
If you’re looking for the edge, the difference that makes the difference … this is one “performance enhancing supplement” you won’t be disqualified for using, or have to contend with any side effects (other than increased speed!).
And don’t feel bad as you leave your friends in the dust either … you’re not technically cheating
VO2fx® Running Compression Socks are in the final stages of beta testing, and we expect them to be available in the first quarter of 2012. The design and construction of the proprietary VO2fx® Athletic Compression System represent a quantum leap forward in high performance legwear.
It’s so advanced, 12 NFL teams have commissioned custom socks for players to wear as part of their on-field playing uniform, and Recovery Socks for post-game.
