Raiders Ready: Compressing for Success
As the Rutland Raiders prepare for their D-I season, they're turning to compression gear to take their performance to the next level. Brands like Under Armour and Nike offer a range of compression sleeves and tights that can help improve blood flow and reduce muscle soreness. The Raiders are particularly fond of the Under Armour Unstoppable Compression Tights, which retail for $40-$60. These tights feature a four-way stretch fabric that allows for maximum mobility during intense summer two-a-days. D-I athletes prefer this gear because it helps them recover faster between practices, allowing them to push themselves harder and longer. Parents, consider investing in a pair of compression sleeves like the Nike Pro Compression Sleeve, which retails for $20-$30, to help your athlete stay ahead of the game.
