疲労回復& 遅発性筋肉痛
Compression garments and recovery from eccentric exercise
M I Trenell, K B Rooney, C M Sue and C H Thompson
This study on 11 subjects used magnetic resonance Imaging (MRI) to demonstrate the muscle changes during recovery. The results showed significance improvement in enzymes involved in muscle membrane restoration after only 1 hour wearing Skins™ (long tights) after controlled muscle injury.
Skeletal muscle pH at baseline. 1hr and 48hrs following eccentric muscle exercise in control (diamonds) and compression (circles). p<0.05 compared with baseline.
Effectiveness of post match recovery strategies in Rugby players
N D Gill, C M Beavan and C Cook
This study compared recovery strategies after elite rugby union games and found that ice baths, Skins™ and active recovery improved recovery rates by a similar but substantial amount.
The percentage recovery post-rugby match as examined by interstitial creatine kinase activity at 0, 36 and 84 hours, grouped by recovery strategy. Error bars show the standard error of the differences (SED) at the respective time points. ACT, active recovery; CWT, contrast water therapy; GAR, compression garment; PAS, passive recovery. *Significantly different (p<0.05) from other interventions.

The physiological and performance effects of the lower body compression garments in high performance cyclists
B Dascombe, A Scanlan, M Osbourne, B Humphries, P Reaburn
This independent study in 12 elite athletes showed dramatic improvements in muscle oxygenation during 1-hour time trials (1HTT) and maximal efforts, including increases in anaerobic threshold and increased muscle oxygenation during the recovery from intense exercise.

Performance effects of wearing compression garments (Skins™) during exercise and recovery
C K Argus, The Waikato Institute of Technology, Hamilton, New Zealand
This report is a post-graduate’s report of the effect of Skins™ on a large number of parameters over a seven day period. These studies found significant improvements in repeated sprint times at day 2 and 7; greater concentric and eccentric strength; and lower post-exercise pain.
Percentage change (= SD) in fastest sprint time for 12 repetition of 20 meter sprints between COMP (n=9) groups over three days of testing followed by one day testing four days later. There was a small worthwhile positive effect on day seven for the COMP group (ES = -0.39).
* Denotes small worthwhile positive effect.
