I recently purchsed the Zoot compressRX recovery tights. Now that I am training for IM, I think the legs will need all the recovery help they can get! My question is how long do you wear them post exercise?. The zoot website doesn’t have any information/studies done yet on that. I received an email back from Zoot saying to experiment and keep a log. Just curious as to what others have found. I’ve been wearing them around the house for a few hours after long rides, but have heard that people sleep in them. Its so darn hot here in AZ that wearing tights all day is no fun, not like I can go out and about in them, LOL! TIA.
I usually wear them for 4-6 hours after a serious workout, but if it is hot, then I forgo wearing them and go for ice bathes, massage and other recovery activities. I think the reply you received was pretty spot on, do experiment and note the sensations in your log.
