Compression shorts like 2XU and Skins can be rather expensive, no Under Armour here and so I went with Nike. Quality wise, meh, but so far, good enough for legs workout days or running days. Placebo perhaps but I do feel that I perform better with it.
Eh.. compression is for recovery lar.. i thought you wear that shit after you finish torturing the hell out of your legs???

that or you have deep vein thrombosis in which you should not be running in the first place if you have that...

Since we have ultra runner around here like Vinn_Ann, Syamillion, BH, lil,  Appreciate your input. A need a recommendation to buy a running shorts, like a compression shorts...I have a 10 km event on 8/9/13.
Was thinking of using my cycling short but afraid I will embarrass our cycling community here....advice please.
Also any good running shoe, just for consideration if I am going to pick up running for fun.

for 10km run no need to used compression..but if want to used your cycling short should be no problem for me la...but the padding comfortable for u??not bulky ar...ada banyak different with trisuit padding...why not just buy cheap nike or adidas short??what event u participate??

for road running i'm using newton trainer..blister free and suit my running gait...u must know your feet type first...

Shoes, just check your foot structure. Runner Lab from Tropicana City Mall provides such service. I like Saucony and VFF but I no money sad.gif

Shorts, very subjective and strongly depends on how long the distance is. Some get inner thigh chaffing before 10k some none. I get it easily hence I prefer a pair of compression shorts.

Compression shorts like 2XU and Skins can be rather expensive, no Under Armour here and so I went with Nike. Quality wise, meh, but so far, good enough for legs workout days or running days. Placebo perhaps but I do feel that I perform better with it.

BTW, not ultra runner here, just a casual one going for his first ever half :/ paiseh

nike shorts got base layer? i thought only their compression tops have base layers.. bought 1 before.. totally suck at heat dissipation...

or do you mean the core compression range???

i think this are meant for football players...you basically wear them under your football shorts during play.. and the football specific tops have some armor muscle bolstering effects or some shit li tat...
