Compression arm sleeves are a must have if you’re training for peak performance. Whereas most people tend to use compression gear only for the lower body, we are here to tell you that your arms could use it too.
While some options are basically designed to provide warmth and style, others offer real positive effects for your workout. Some of these include:
- stimulating blood flow to prevent muscle soreness;
- reduced muscle fatigue;
- stained prevention;
- better muscle oxygenation;
- improved strength recovery(…)
Given all of these, it doesn’t really make sense to only take care of your legs, right?
Here are some compression sleeves to give your arms some love too.
