Product Features & UsesTHE HISTORY OF 110%™ COMPRESSION
The first compression stockings were manufactured in the 1950's as doctors discovered the benefits of tight bandages to reduce swelling and improve circulation in their patients.
Compression for athletes started soon after, as the sports community embraced the medical benefits of compression to help performance. Tight wraps were used. Gauze bandages, which stretched, were also put into action. With advancements over the years in material technology, lighter, stronger, yet more flexible fabrics made it possible for athletes to enjoy the benefits of compression.
But then, someone had another cool idea. Steve Petitt, 7 time Iron Man Hawaii competitor, was sitting in an ice bath after a 20 mile run and decided to sew pockets on a pair of compression tights, revolutionizing icing and compression forever.
He searched for a lightweight, portable form of ice and developed the whole line of compression wear with pockets to insert the ice for recovery to avoid the dreaded ice bath. And the first
simple-mobile-effective ice treatment was born.
Petitt's "ice pocket" idea was later brought together with the advances in compression technology and 110% Compression+ was introduced to the world.
110 Compression+ How It Works110%™ Play Harder - Compression Wear That Improves Your Performance And Increases Your Recovery Rate.
110%™ represents the next genuine advancement in training, athletic performance and sports recovery through the evolution of Sports Compression Wear. 110%™ zoned, gradient compression wear is designed with a highly innovative approach to garment construction that elevates the benefits of sports compression significantly to enhance your training, performance and recovery. The dual layer fabric composition creates the best compression ratio in the market today from 15-22 mmHg (Millimetres of Mercury as used in blood pressure readings). Coupled with this is the 110%™ Compression Plus Ice Therapy System that features a unique pocket architecture that fuses these benefits with the elemental power of ice for faster recovery. Better compression plus instant, mobile ice therapy for recovery... that's Compression+
BEFORE: Wearing compression before training or competition has been shown to increase blood flow and prepare the muscles for exertion. 110%™ Compression+ is designed to help your body prepare to perform at.....110%.
DURING: Compression gear during training or competition increases muscle stability and reduces vibration which in turn, leads to muscle fatigue. Compression Zones are specifically woven into the garment construction to provide targeted support around key areas and muscle groups. The Gradient compression means you get compression exactly where you need it most (more compression further from the heart, less compression closer). In addition, 110%™ products are moisture wicking and anti-microbial and the near seamless construction means added comfort.
AFTER: Compression gear used after training or competing, has been shown to maintain blood circulation and reduce lactic acid build up the primary cause of Delayed Onset Muscle Soreness (DOMS). 110%™ Compression+ is designed with a unique pocket architecture that allows you to add cold therapy to the equation instantly just where you need it. Just slip the re-usable micro thin ice sheets in and begin your recovery immediately - simple, mobile, neat and tidy and highly effective.
