We had never imagined a simple couple of socks could become a revolution for sports. If somebody had told us some years ago that our performance would improve by wearing some socks, we had not believed that. Now this is real, thanks to the advances in this field.
The Spanish company Medilast Sport has introduced a line of compression socks (including mesh socks) that are ideal for the sports practice like ski, athletics, tennis, golf or cycling. And they are not simple socks: they accelerate the venous return oxygenating muscular mass and therefore our sport performance improves.
One of the main functions of the socks is the improvement of the aerobic and anaerobic performance because the compression socks improve the redistribution of the blood flow and in this way, they enhance the tissue oxygenation, so we can have more endurance due to the optimization of the oxygen in the body. This optimized blood flow is present not only when we are moving, but also when we are resting, and for that reason, the socks also accelerate our recovery.
There are also additional benefits because when improving the blood circulation, we consume less oxygen, and therefore our endurance is increased by up to 6%. Also, when the socks accelerate the venous return, our tissues are nurtured and recovered quickly, the heart rhythm is slower and you will be less tired. Finally, if you keep in mind several muscular pains are caused by the fatigue and poor oxygenation, then we can say the compression socks reduce the possibility of having muscular pains.
