The benefits of compression products for padel
Padel is an intensive sport that requires fast movements, sharp coordination, and resilience against physical stress. Like many other fast-paced sports, padel may lead to various sports-related and repetitive strain injuries, usually connected to suddent movements, fast changes of direction and repetitive, monotonous movements.
Padel competitor Tiina Nykänen has been using Tritanium's compression products for several years now.
”As an active player, it was important to find the right products for preventing repetitive strain injuries and enhancing recovery. Luckily, I discovered Tritanium and their high-quality compression products.
Utilizing compression products in padel
Compression products provide various benefits for padel, such as optimized striking, reduced stress on the joints, faster recovery and prevention of repetitive strain injuries.
The mechanical pressure effect of compression arm sleeves reduces the pulling load on the connecting tendons around the forearm and the stretching of tissue due to explosive movements, which are common causes of e.g. tennis elbow.
”Early on in my padel career, I developed a painful and persistent tennis elbow whose symptoms were completely eliminated thanks to Tritanium’s compression products. I used and still use a lower pressure category eXtend Low arm sleeve for recovery and rehabilitation. During practice, I use the higher pressure category equivalent. Rest and muscle maintenance were also important for recovery. After that, I've been healthy, which I am grateful for.
The use of compression arm sleeves during and after sports performance reduces post-workout tissue swelling and muscle soreness, that are typical symptoms.
”My favourite choice for competition weekends with plenty of matches are the eXtend Ankle compression socks. A few years ago I suffered a case of plantar fasciitis on the court. Now, after recovering, the socks give me confidence during play”, Tiina summarizes.
Padel is also hard on the calves and players suffer from various calf injuries. To prevent these, we warmly recommend compression calf sleeves, either to support practice or enhancing recovery – you won't be disappointed!
Padel is an intensive sport that’s demanding to other body parts as well. During a match, players’ ankles, knees and legs in general undergo heavy stress.
This makes Tritanium eXtend compression socks and knee and ankle support an excellent choice for playing without fear of injuries repetitive strain or injuries.
Top 3 benefits of compression products for padel:
TRITANIUM EXTEND HIGH (20–30mmHg) – TRAINING & COMPETING
- Improved strike feel– Improved sensorimotor effects improves e.g. control over hand position and fine motor skills
- Prevent repetitive strain injuries– The mechanical pressure effect of compression reduces the tensile load on the muscles/attaching tendons and reduces the micro-vibration of tissues caused by the impact, which can cause e.g. tennis elbow, Achilles infections, and various forearm pain conditions.
- Fight to the last round– The varying compression pressure enhances venous blood flow, especially during performance, allowing deoxygenated blood to be removed from the limbs more efficiently, keeping muscles oxygenated and working efficiently
TRITANIUM EXTEND LOW (10–15mmHg) – RECOVERY & TRAVEL
- Recover more efficiently– Tritanium’s low-pressure compression products were designed to boost blood flow and metabolism. They offer benefits such as maximizing the flow of lymphatic fluid, which serves as the body's own waste management system
- Reduce post-exercise muscle soreness– The use of compression products during and after a workout reduces e.g. tissue swelling, alleviating post-workout muscle soreness, among other benefits
- Be better prepared for the next face-off – Lower pressure category products can be used safely for long periods of time continuously (e.g. overnight) and they are also perfectly suited for travel use. Tritanium eXtend Low products help the user maximize recovery and be prepared for the next challenge sooner.
TRITANIUM EXTEND COMPRESSION SUPPORTS (ANKLE, KNEE, WRIST AND ELBOW SUPPORTS)
- Prevent repetitive strain injuries– Tritanium's functional compression supports are designed to achieve beneficial physiological effects, particularly preventing injuries and treating already existing ones.
- Play without pain – Trtitanium compression supports offer significant benefits for reducing and preventing pain. The supports enable natural movement of the joints and are supremely comfortable to wear.
- Rehabilitate and get back in the game faster– The use of compression supports speeds up recovery from injuries. Outside the court they can be used for rehabilitation. The varying level of pressure supports muscle groups, such as those surrounding the knee, to activate more effectively. This improves the user's sense of body position.
