CW-X Men's 3/4 Stabilyx Insulator Tights

Insulator Stabilyx Tights use WarmStretch temperature-regulation fabric to maintain a constant comfortable surface temperature in a variety of conditions; perfect for the cold weather athlete.  The Stabilyx tights provide optimum targeted support to the core and knees. They are ideal for runners, for activities with lateral motion and for athletes seeking our best form of knee support. The patented CW-X Support Web bands together the muscles and ligaments of the lower leg to stabilize the knee and reduce vibration for increased efficiency. The CW-X Support Web also harnesses the midsection, supporting the lower abdominals, hips and back to channel power through the core. Variable compression facilitates circulation during and after activity, minimizing lactic acid build-up so that you can be active longer and recover faster. Six reflective flash strips and reflective logo provide 360-degree visibility for nighttime activities.

In a study in Kyoto, Japan, electrical pulse activity of the muscles (muscles firing into motion) was measured electromyographically. Unsupported and partly supported legs both show frequency decrease during exercise, indications of fatigue. Legs supported by CW-X showed negligible frequency decrease.
