Why Compression is Important

Compression apparel is important for anyone who exercises diligently. Designed to increase blood and lymphatic flow to the specified limb, use of compression is said to enhance performance and shorten recovery time for both athletes and weekend warriors alike. 

Scientific evidence shows an increase in oxygen uptake to the working muscles, a reduction in blood lactate levels, and improved warmups are all observed when compression gear is worn both pre- and post-exercise. But compression apparel isn’t just a matter of tightly fitting fabrics where Zenkai is concerned. With our Filium Technology, Zenkai Compression also repels sweat, keeping you cooler as you exercise by letting the sweat evaporate effortlessly through the breathable fabric, as nature intended.

As if that wasn’t enough, the water repellant technology also keeps bacteria out of the garment so you can wear your compression gear multiple times before you need to wash it!
