VERTICS.Sleeves against arm pumps in motocross
After determining the size, VERTICS.Sleeves are only pulled over one forearm and then a 5kg weight is rolled up over an axle. Almost all test persons felt the beneficial effect of the sleeves after a short time. The underarm with the compression of VERTICS.Sleeves feels softer and less pumped.
Additional benefits of VERTICS.Sleeves and conclusion
When driving, our compression gauntlets also support the tendons and ligaments of the forearm. A back and forth swinging of the muscles (oscillation) is significantly reduced by the stabilizing effect of our arm warmers and thus they contribute to fatigue-free driving.
Of course, VERTICS.Sleeves are not a panacea against arm pumps, technology and psyche as well as nutrition and sodium and electrolyte balance (information from Ambos Miamed) are decisive for reducing arm pumps or excessive acidification of the muscles. Seat, posture, core muscles, long jumps, etc., of course, also contribute to a reduced arm pump.
But let’s be honest, a little help in avoiding or reducing pumped forearms is welcome. And this is exactly where VERTICS.Sleeves come in. A study from 2015 showed that athletes who trained with VERTICS.Sleeves compression gauntlets had less lactate in their bloodstream and felt less strained than the comparison groups without compression of the forearms.
