Accelerate your performance with the help of the SKINS Series 1 Half Tights wrap the muscle bellies in the quads and glutes; in doing this, they help reduce the muscle vibrations that cause energy loss from impact. These half-length tights are designed for Medium Intensity activity. These SKINS are a entry level medium compression profile, this one is the all-rounder, offering a faster pre-workout muscle warm-up, especially when participating in team sports. Firm support for the glutes, quads and hamstrings while reducing muscle oscillation. Engineered to put you on the winning side. These tights assist with blood circulation, meaning more blood is being oxygenated, thus delivering oxygen to the working muscles. The increased circulation also helps battle waste products like lactic acid, and thats the stuff that causes muscle soreness. SKINS Series 1 Half Tights work because they apply the maximum pressure furthest away from the heart, decreasing as it moves up the leg.
