Linebreak

THE BRITISH TRIATHLON TEAM WEAR LINEBREAK - WHY SHOULD YOU?

For recovery?
    • LineBreak's™ scientifically designed and tested garments use gradient compression to improve circulation to muscles affected by Delayed Onset
Muscle Soreness (DOMS).
    • Improved circulation speeds up recovery by dispersing lactic acid and providing more efficient flow of re-oxygenated blood to the muscles.
To maintain optimum body temperature?
    • LineBreak's™ superior moisture management technology works with the body's thermoregulatory system to actively warm or cool the wearer regardless of exertion levels and ambient air temperature. LineBreak™is clinically proven to reduce sweat rates by a staggering 30% (Robert Newton et al, 2006).



To reduce soft tissue injury?
    • During exercise, LineBreak™ products stabilise muscles from the dynamic forces that cause micro-tearing to muscle fibres. Reduced muscle oscillation means the natural degradation that causes fatigue and performance declineis slowed significantly.
To maximise training and competition performance?
    •  The key benefits of stabilising muscles and speeding venus blood flow is maximised endurance, power and performance (Bringard A et al, 2005).
