Subject: Zoot Compression Rx Tights

Just bought a Zoot compression RX bottom (recovery). I have been wearing them to bed after hard training days and it does seem to be helping. But I found it kind of interesting that it didn't come with any kind of instructions. Sounds a little funny now that I'm typing it out...what I mean is I get how to put them on... I just don't know if there is a sensible limit to how long they should be on or a standard workout to wear ratio should I but them on immediately after my workouts or at night or possibly both. Looking for some inputs

Good question. To put them on, do it carefully, working them over your foot and heel on both legs first before pulling them up in stages. Just like getting into a wet suit. I wear mine following long or hard bike run workouts. You can wear them overnight no problem, I just can't sleep in mine. You should put them on following the workout or a close to as possible. The greatest effects are likely within the first 5-6 hours, but the longer you leave them on the better your legs will feel.

Thanks for the help. Just wasn't sure if I could over wear them and when in relation to completing the w/o

I'm with Bryan---I wear mine all day after a long/hard bike (often brick...)/or run...  I bought mine last summer training for an IM and tried to sleep in them once----was just too warm.  I find that putting them on as soon as I get out of the shower after the workout and wearing them till I go to bed to work wonders......

I agree with all above, and I also wear them if I am traveling a long way, either flying or driving. I wear them under my uniform at work no prob.

Does anyone else notice that they sleep better with them on? It's science! Facts may not be valid.
