CAAD4 Posted November 18, 2010 Share If they didn't do something positive, people with DVT (Deep Vein Thrombosis) would not wear them!I used them for a niggling calf injury. Have you heard of R.I.C.E.? Ja I normally have some with my C.U.R.R.Y. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chris_w_65 Posted November 18, 2010 Share I saw them demonstrated at the 94.7 expo, they couldn't push a guy off balance when he was wearing them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Garfield2010 Posted November 18, 2010 Share Actually the guy with the fastest bike split a few years back in the IM (Francois Chabaud or something like it) wore compression socks. He was in the lead until Ryanard and Steven Bayliss cought him on the second running lap. Anywyas, I run with them and they definately makes a difference for me.

chris_w_65 Posted November 18, 2010 Share I would be interested to know how many of these athletes got to number one in their game through the use of these products and how many are paid to wear them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Garfield2010 Posted November 18, 2010 Share Probably none because they werent available. Have you tried them Chris? Have you tested them? I have, and they work especially for my running. I'll be wearing them on Sunday just to p&ss everyone off. Does anyone have a power balance band I could borrow on Sunday???!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stewie911 Posted November 18, 2010 Share Obviously no-one got to the top from compression, but they did get there and stay there by using a combination of things. Nutrition Training Recovery Talent etc Recovery works - everyone knows thiscompression is part of recovery, nuff said Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Ramb Posted November 19, 2010 Share 2. If you train like those guys do, your calves dont get sore Your calves will probably get sore when you run up a hill, as hill work affects them the most - making them sore. I am guessing the treadmill doesn't have significant hill elavation or you don't use it particularly much. The socks are supposed to restrict the bloodflow, just like ice would.
