One method of relief from sore muscles is compression clothing. Individuals who wear compression clothing after a workout had less muscle soreness after a one to three day period over those who wore looser clothing according to The Journal of Strength and Conditioning Research.
It is thought that compression clothing helps decrease swelling and increase blood flow. Both a decrease in swelling and an increase in blood flow benefit recovery.
Compression clothing may be over garments or undergarments. One may note that many National Basketball Association players wear compression shorts underneath their basketball shorts.
