Anyone use compression socks for running? Do they really make a difference or is it just a gimmick? Been thinking of trying them out but don't want to waste my money.
I've been using compression socks for a year now and I swear by them. They've reduced my post-run soreness and improved my recovery. Worth the investment for me, but it may vary from person to person.
I've tried compression socks and calf sleeves, and I think they do make a difference. I've noticed less muscle fatigue and faster recovery. It might not be a huge difference, but every little bit counts, right? Definitely worth trying out if you're curious.
Yeah, I've had similar results! Compression socks have definitely helped with my recovery too. I think it's worth trying out, especially if you're doing high mileage or intense training.
That's good to know. I was thinking they might be more preventative than anything. Guess I'll hold off till I actually need them.
