Legend Compression Ambassador

During the third trimester of my pregnancy, I was asked by the kind folks at Legend Compression to be a part of their Ambassador program. Although I wasn't able to participate in physical activity at the time, they still graciously accepted me into their group!

Now with my return to fitness postpartum, I am excited to have a new pair of compression socks to wear as I will soon begin training for next season's set of races.

 

I first wore these after my 5 mile bike ride on Saturday and I fell in love!

For starters, let's talk about compression and why it's necessary for athletes:

• Helps promote circulation
• Reduces muscle fatigue
• Reduces soreness post exercise
• Accelerates recovery and healing

Legend Compression Wear also incorporates graduated compression technology which helps improve blood flow and oxygen levels - this aids the athlete in running stronger, training harder, and recovering faster.

Do I even need to mention their super cute color options? Yes, I do...

I opted for the aqua pair as it's one of my favorite colors...and it didn't disappoint! Other available colors include black, blue, purple, pink, white, and yellow! 

 These also run true to size. As an 8 to an 8.5 shoe size, I received a size medium which fit perfectly!
