TI  - Donning a Novel Lower-Limb Restrictive Compression Garment During Training 
      Augments Muscle Power and Strength.
PG  - 890-899
AB  - The popularity of graduated compression garments (GCG) in sport and exercise is 
      largely driven by the abundance of anecdotal claims suggesting their efficacy. A 
      new line of compression apparel, restrictive compression garments (RCG), 
      integrate novel resistance technology into lower-limb compression garments 
      designed to provide variable resistance to movement. This study aimed to 
      investigate the effect of donning an RCG during a 4-week training program on 
      selected performance variables. Twelve college-aged males were recruited for four 
      weeks of lower-body strength-power resistance training. Participants were 
      randomized 1:1 and blinded to (i) an intervention group (RCG; n = 6) that donned 
      a lower-body RCG during training or (ii) a control group (SHAM; n = 6) that 
      donned a sham during identical training. Both groups demonstrated significant 
      increases in 1-repetition maximum (1-RM) on a seated leg press after 4 weeks 
      (both p < 0.001), with RCG showing a significantly greater increase compared SHAM 
      (p = 0.005, g = 3.35). Similarly, RCG demonstrated significantly greater 
      increases in jump height, peak power, and average power compared to SHAM (p = 
      0.032, g = 3.44; p < 0.001, g = 4.40; p < 0.001, g = 4.50, respectively). Donning 
      a RCG while engaging in lower-body strength-power training may augment increases 
      1-RM on a seated leg press, jump height, peak and average power, compared with 
      same exercise training without an RCG.
