Healthy Holidays Giveaway Week: Day Two

December 4, 2012 by Julie 1,351 Comments

It’s day two of Healthy Holidays Giveaway Week and the fitness fun is just beginning! 

Healthy Holidays Giveaway Week

Today we’re keeping the festivities rolling with a compression shorts giveaway!

Aspaeris Compression Shorts Giveaway

As someone who discovered the benefits of compression gear only a year ago, I fell hard and fast for compression clothing, sleeves and socks.

The Aspaeris Pivot Shorts are my favorite pair of compression shorts – I have them in navy blue and red – and when I reached out to the company about a giveaway, they enthusiastically agreed. Hooray!

Aspaeris Pivot Shorts

They also threw in the added bonus of 25 percent off the compression shorts on their website for PBF readers just in case you don’t win but still want to try their gear. (Just use the code PBFINGERS on the Aspaeris website and you’ll get the discount.)

The Aspaeris Pivot Shorts are actually two shorts in one.

According to the company, the outer short is a high performance compression short designed to support your muscles while the inner short features Dual Sensory Compression Bands™. These cross-knit bands guide your muscles into the proper position, thereby improving your pivot performance which helps prevent ACL and hip injuries.

Pivot Compression Shorts

They’ll keep you nice and snug!

To enter this giveaway, please leave a comment below telling me about your experience (or lack of experience!) with compression gear.

I will randomly select a winner on Thursday morning.

Good luck! 

Be sure to follow PBFingers on Instagram and Facebook!

I'd love to connect with you! I am always so grateful when you let me know you tried one of my recipes or workouts and tag me in your photos or updates. Thank you so much!!!

    When I took up running (transitioning from lifting at the gym), I found that I loved to run fast and for long distances. While this is fabulous, it also brought me to injury quite quickly. A regimen of stretching and wearing compression shorts and socks/sleeves basically 24/7 helped me stave off a long recuperation time and allowed me to run a 1:28 in my first half-marathon. I’m compression gear’s absolute biggest fan!! 😀

    I have never worn compression anything but have been looking into them. I am running my first half marathon in March in DC and was looking into some compression gear for the run! I am also into crossfit and bootcamp classes and wondered if they would help with those!

    Hi! As a 40 year old (almost 41, gasp!) mom of 3, I need all the help I can get and would LOVE to try the compression shorts. While I love to exercise, I do not enjoy running–like AT ALL. However, I ran the Philly Broad Street Run (10 miles) last year for the first time. and it was awesome. Unfortch, I also managed to severely sprain my SI joint in the process. It’s been a very long road to recovery and my goal is to start training after the new year for another Broad Street and poss a half marathon. Help a mom (and possibly the oldest reader of your blog besides your own mom) and choose me for the shorts!!

    I hope it isn’t too late,
    I have suffered with hip problems for about ten years: hiking, swimming, running, snowboarding and horseback riding have all taken its toll. I was told by my chiropractor that compression shorts would help to alleviate the pain.
    I’d love a pair

    I’ve never worn compression gym wear but I have issues with my knee not aligning correctly so I’m pretty intrigued by the claim that these can guide your muscles into the proper position, thereby improving your pivot performance which helps prevent ACL and hip injuries. Would love to see if they could help with my knee issues.

    I’ve only worn compression socks, and I like them! Aside from helping me achieve my Britney Spear’s schoolgirl look (when paired with my pink plaid running skirt), I think they help my legs feel better after a run. 🙂
