AI Article Synopsis
- The study examined how high compression sportswear affects athlete comfort during running.
- Different levels of compression were tested on four subjects using a treadmill, measuring their body response, temperature, and perspiration.
- Results showed that increased compression from the sportswear led to greater sweating and higher skin temperatures, impacting overall comfort.
Article Abstract
The study aimed to analyze whether the high compression of unique, tight-fitting sportswear influences the clothing physiology comfort of the athlete. Three specific sportswear with different compression were tested on four subjects while they were running on a treadmill with increasing intensity. The compression effect of the sportswear on the body of the test persons, the temperature distribution of the subjects, and the intensity of their perspiration during running were determined. The results indicate that the compression effect exerted by the garments significantly influences the clothing physiology comfort of the athlete; a higher compression load leads to more intense sweating and higher skin temperature.
