A compression calf sleeve is an elasticated sleeve that provide gradual compression all the way from the ankle up to the knee, supporting the whole calf. When we exercise, the heart pumps oxygenated blood to the working muscle, and once used the blood and waste products like lactic acid flow back to the heart so they can be oxygenated and the cycle can repeat. Compression garments work by fighting the effects of gravity to help with this cycle, keeping your muscles feeling good throughout your run.
By adding some extra calf running support in the form of a sleeve, you can use this compression to help your muscles heal more productively as you work out. This can allow you to heal faster between sessions, and to prevent injuries and strains as your muscles are more prepared to work.
