Compressport Compression
Performance also comes from pressure

Sports compression works on very precise balances: supporting the muscle without limiting its movement, intervening during exertion, and altering its function when the body enters the recovery phase. Compressport builds its research around these processes, studying how pressure can affect the muscular response before, during, and after activity.

Targeted compression

The science of compression: from principle to application

At the Compressport Lab, compression is analyzed through measurable biomechanical and physiological parameters, including muscle vibrations, blood flow, and proprioception. The goal is to define how much and where to apply pressure so that the fabric can support the muscles without restricting their natural mobility. The different levels of compression are then calibrated based on the anatomical area and usage, transforming the tension of the material into an active element of the garment rather than just a characteristic of fit.

During exertion: less vibration, more control

Running and high-intensity activities continuously subject the muscles to oscillations generated by impacts and load variations. Compression helps contain some of these involuntary movements: according to Compressport tests, vibrations can be reduced by up to 30%. Less oscillation also means greater stabilization of the tissues while the movement remains free. The pressure on the skin and muscles also stimulates the receptors involved in proprioception, improving the perception of body position and movement control. Support thus becomes particularly interesting when duration and intensity increase, and the muscles must continue to manage repeated stress.

Recovery

Muscle Recovery: the pressure changes direction

After high loads, the focus shifts to the body's ability to restore favorable conditions for recovery. Graduated compression is applied to promote venous return and support blood flow, helping to improve tissue oxygenation. Data reported by the Compressport Lab indicate an increase in muscle oxygenation of up to 20% and a recovery speed that is 15% faster. This principle also underpins the brand's specific Recovery solutions, where the compression is calibrated to assist the flow from bottom to top and address the sensation of swelling and fatigue that may linger after training and competitions.
