Compression to Freeze Off The Fat

I have a confession to make…I have those cold shorts…yeah the one’s that are supposed to help the fat melt away.

Ok not really and I’m sure most of you were thinking someone must have taken over my blog, but I was afraid if I started one more post with the words “I LOVE COMPRESSION” you might gag. However, I have a new compression toy! This one comes with ice packs and can you say FABULOUS for Miami or any summer training really.

I have to admit the shorts do look a little similar, so what the heck I might get recovered muscles and lose some fat…really that reminds of when people used to buy those little ab machines that made your muscles twitch.

110% RECOVERY SHORTS
Having not yet even put on the shorts, I can say they had me at the name. 110% Play Harder.. the name alone makes me want to go kick some butt thinking about it. Marketing at its finest.

The recovery shorts provide serious compression which on it’s own is great for recovery, but an added bonus is that they come with these small flexible sheets that you freeze and then place in pockets throughout the shorts. The sheets stay cool up to 2 hours...but even cooler is that you can take it all with you to an event! They come with a great THERMAL bag that ensures the ice pack stays cool up to 6 hours, so post race you can be ready to immediately start recovery.

For Miami summer training this sounds like pure heaven for post run!!! It will definitely help with any muscle strains, soreness and overall fatigue. Because I am a weeney about the ice bath, this is an awesome middle ground that provides both the coolness and compression needed to enhance muscle recovery.

I used the compression shorts after my insanely amazing track workout a few weeks ago and was really impressed to find that after just a few hours my legs started to really feel better. I have since used them anytime my legs start to feel heavy from all the runs and cross training.

Because I think compression is just the bees knees…well you’ll be getting a chance soon to win a pair of 110% compression knee sleeves. That’s right, we want to help your knees recover quicker so you can train hard all summer long.

You can learn more about 110% Play Harder on their website.
