With COMP+ the significance phased out earlier (2 km/h vs. Calf StO 2 was recorded using near infrared spectroscopy before, during and after the exercise. The session included an incremental exercise on treadmill: 2 min at each intensity - 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 and 7 km/h - each was preceded and followed by a 10-minute rest in a seated position. The purpose was to examine the changes in tissue oxygen saturation (StO 2) with well- and tight-fitted compression sleeves - before, during and after an exercise on treadmill.ġ4 athletes came to the laboratory three times to complete the same session with or without well- (COMP) and tight-fitted (COMP+) calf compression sleeves.

Effects of lower-limb compression garments on hemodynamics during walking or running remain unclear.
