Got fined once (talked myself out of the fine) for wearing a short sleeve....

"Rule yadayada....section yadadayada.....for safety reasons" 

 

"Maar tannie....hoe moes ek weet?  Ek bly dan in die bos?  Ons kry warm daar..."    :ph34r:  :whistling:  :P  :lol:

That wasn't perhaps the Sun City race in 2014 was it?

I recently read an article where the cyclist said the best thing she did was purchase compression socks.

 

Is it really worth it to spend the extra moolah on a pair?

I also read articles that Power Balance wristbands are awesome..... bought 15, wear 3 on each limb, best purchase EVER!

I can get good quality locally made compression socks for +- R80 a pair.... I just use them when im getting cold but im sure it must have a good effect for recovery

You must be very powerfully balanced regardless of application then! You must be rigid about keeping them on.

TL;DR.

Good for recovery.

Placebo during exercise.

 

But if you don't buy it, how can you ever be cool as this?

I have to ask......do the sleeves aid recovery as well?
