Aspaeris Pivot Compression Shorts Giveaway

Posted on February 25th, 2012 by peanutbutterfingers

After I blogged about the soreness I experienced following the Savannah Rock ‘n’ Roll Half Marathon, a wonderful woman (and amazing athlete!) who works with my dad and reads my blog reached out to me about the benefits of compression clothing.

She swore by compression gear as a means to increase oxygen blood flow to the muscles, helping them to recover faster.

After wearing compression sleeves over my calves following the Women’s Half Marathon later that month, I was a believer. I wasn’t sore and loved the snug fit of the sleeves.

I knew then that I wanted to try out compression shorts since my hamstrings and quads are often sore after long runs.

Thanks to the kind people at Aspaeris, I was able to try out the Aspaeris Pivot compression shorts and my belief in the benefits of compression clothing was further solidified.

The Aspaeris compression shorts are tight and thick, but comfortable. They don’t dig into my skin. They are snug, but don’t make me feel strangled.

According to Aspaeris, the shorts “offer a unique two-layer design. The top layer supports your muscles while the bottom layer guides you into position. Breakthrough, patent-pending compression bands are cross-knit into the fabric that creates muscle memory to help prevent ACL injury and improve your performance.”

The shorts come in a variety of colors including black, white, red and navy blue.

And now YOU have a chance to win a pair of Aspaeris Pivot compression shorts!

To enter this giveaway, simply comment below telling me about your greatest athletic achievement or a personal athletic goal you have for yourself in the future.

I will randomly select a winner on Monday morning.

Good luck!

    I started training for my first half-marathon about 6 weeks ago, and am so excited to be up to about 7 miles in a stretch at this point :) The run takes place in Philadelphia in May, I’m doing it with a good friend of mine, and we’re loving the training/prep/new knowledge about running, healthy living, and the gear/tools that make it all easier. I haven’t tried any compression clothing yet, so this would be a neat new experience. Thanks, love your blog!!

    Having a history with multiple ACL tears, I’ve been looking into anything that will help stabilize that area and of course, decreased soreness after long runs would be amazing. This year I’m hoping to complete my first half marathon without totally killing me knees in the process!

    I am so curious about compression shorts/gear! I don’t suffer too much from soreness but I definitely need to be better about recovery from long races – I have a feeling my negligence will catch up with me!

    I’m hoping to qualify for the Boston marathon!

    I had knee surgery in high school to reattach my knee cap which dislocated 3 times in the span of 6 months from a reoccuring basketball injury, running has always been an issue since then. But I am going to be running the Race for the Cure in May with a group of people in my college major for one of our professors who is currently battling breast cancer!

    After running 2 marathons, I have discovered how important it is to wear the right clothes! The first marathon I wore a running skirt. The shorts underneath the skirt were unlike the compression shorts you have because they kept riding up and made for an unpleasant chafing experience!

She will be 58 yrs. old this year and does 2 marathons per year, many triathalons yearly and rides her bike summer and even winter when it’s not too cold. She never spoils herself with too many running items but I think she would love these. Thanks Julie, hope you are having a great weekend.

    Two years ago, I became a group fitness instructor. I was certified to teach a class that I’ve loved FOREVER called “Turbo Kick”. I had thought about becoming an instructor for a few years, but never had the guts.

    Now, just a few short years later, I teach Turbo Kick, Boot Camp, Weight Lifting and Hip Hop Hustle at my local YMCA. I’m also planning to get certified in Zumba and Body Pump.

    Sure, I’ve been doing these classes forever and didn’t have to push myself that hard physically to achieve this goal. It was more of a mental thing. Building up the confidence to lead a class and help a group of individuals reach their health and fitness goals took a lot of courage…but it’s also been incredibly rewarding!

    I’m running my very first half marathon next month! I’m super nervous but I’ve been trying to stay really dedicated to my training, and I’ve been doing negative splits so far. And I’m up to nine miles on my long runs! That’s farther than I ever thought I’d be able to run, so I’m really proud just of how far I’ve come already. :)

    Greatest accomplishment was definitely in my senior year swimming and my final race. I put so much pressure on myself in the previous events about pace and times, that I said for this one, to just go all out and forget about any regrets. I dropped more time than i ever imagined and it was an awesome way to end my college swimming career!

    Hi Julie,
    Running makes me feel stronger, improves my confidence, and reinforces that my most important relationship is always going to be with myself. Running benefits nobody but the runner and demonstrates positive affirmation on a day to day basis.

    I have been continuously running for quite a few years, but never challenged myself in a race. My goal is to run the Nike Women’s Half Marathon in Vancouver, BC, and I want to kick some serious butt!

I was working so hard, swimming twice a day, five times a week, and the feeling of accomplishment after swimming my heart out in a sleek, Olympic size pool in an intensive, close race gave me such a high! I don’t swim as much as I used to, but I’ll never forget those extremely proud moments I had in high school.

    I’ve been eyeing those shorts for awhile – I’d love to win a pair!

    I suppose my greatest athletic achievement was anchoring a winning and record breaking relay at my college championship swim meet my senior year. It was the icing on the cake (a team championship, event win, and a record)! But running my first marathon this past November is a close second! :)

    I’m running my first half marathon on April 15th! I’m excited but nervous–I am on a post early-graduation trip in South America before starting work and haven’t been able to run as easily, safely, or far as at home. Once I get home I’ll really only have 3 weeks to train as much as I want.

    That being said, knowing that I’m signed up for the race has kept me in ok shape since starting traveling in January. Hopefully it wont be too painful getting back into it! (But the fact that these compression shorts might aid in that recovery is what’s gotten me to comment for the first time since reading your blog for almost a year!)

    My biggest athletic achievement thus far is completing my first half marathon, hands down. As my husband left my two toddlers and I for a 7 month deployment, I told him I was going to “become a runner” while he was gone. He laughed and wished me good luck. My first run (less than a mile, ha!) was rough, but crossing the finish line 3 months later after 13.1 miles was worth it. I have since completed another half, a 10k and a 14k, but I doubt anything will ever compare to the first!

    First off – let me admit that I have been following and enjoying your blog for a few weeks now. So glad I found it. I have had fun reading through your back posts – your wedding – your first half marathon ………. I am stoked to try some of your smoothie recipes once it warms up.

    As far as athletic achievement – I never did anything remotely athletic before the age of 40 (Unless you can count walking quickly to good sales in the Mall or talking non-stop with friends) After I turned the big 40 I suddenly realized that the weight had crept up on me (I could not longer blame it on baby weight at the youngest of my three was like seven years old LOL) and I wasn’t feeling so good.

    And so began a complete transformation of my lifestyle (much to my husband’s astonishment – as he said he would have never guessed in a million years I would suddenly be interested in becoming sweaty on purpose) I changed up my eating habits and my family’s eating habits. And I started to walk followed by running from one mailbox to the next one (mailboxes are close together in my neighborhood) Before I knew it, I had run a 5K and decided to run a half marathon.

    I will be celebrating my 44th birthday next month – I have now completed five half marathons (PB was 2:01 – still working on that sub 2 I see that you achieved – Congrats!), three 10 mile races, 2 10K races, and a few 5K races.

    So I guess you are never too old to start!!! :-)

I remember going to the gym the first day, and “running” on the treadmill. Back then, I could only alternate jogging 30 seconds and walking 2 minutes. I’m now up to a consistent 10 mile run, and my first half marathon is in late March. Great giveaway!

    My greatest achievement has been completing my first half marathon (just last week) on my birthday! my future goal for this year is to complete three more! I wanted to comelete four more, for a total of five this year, but one is sold out.. :( who knows, maybe i’ll find myself completing a full marathonnext year! Although I definitely was not feeling up to it after I finished the half.. No way was I about to turn around and complete a second loop of that course! Haha

    I’ve never tried compression gear, but I’d love to! I ran a marathon as my senior project in high school and half marathons all through college. After graduating and moving away from my running buds, I kind of fell away from the lengthier races. One of my current goals is to get back into it!

    My best friend and I are running the Chicago Rock ‘N Roll Half this summer, and then my boyfriend and I are running the Chicago Marathon this October.

    I should seriously try these shorts. I have a fully replaced ACL in my right knee, which has led to my left knee overcompensating, and then my right to make up for the left, and so on and so on. I need to be as strong as possible with those hefty races ahead of me!

To be able to run a 5k straight through. Not even necessarily competitively. No matter how fit I am, it’s very hard for me to run without stopping to catch my breath for a minute. I’ve barely worked myself up to 1 mile, so 3.1 would feel awesome.

    By far one of my greatest accomplishments was running my first marathon in 2010. Life got SO in the way and I barely trained, but I gutted that thing out and was bawling after I finished- it was such an exhausting, emotional experience! Now, I’m beginning to make a REAL training plan to run my second full this year- we’ll see how I do when I actually put the training work in!

    After swearing off skiing for the last 15 years because of a horrible first experience (when I was 16 years old), my husband coaxed me into trying it last year. I only had two ski days last season because I started so late, but this season we’ve been going as much as possible. Today I skied all intermediate terrain, a goal I NEVER thought I’d reach when I started up again last season. I have a way of being so critical about my body despite the fact that it allows me to do so much. It’s time to start thanking her!

    Also…my husband and I mountain climb, and every time I reach a summit I am so grateful. So I guess they’re both my most exciting achievements!

    I am a 46 years old non-athlete and have NEVER been a runner. Last summer I decided to do something for myself and trained for my first 5K using the Couch to 5K Running program. In October I ran the River City Rat Race and finished with a 10:09 pace. I was so proud of myself!!

    My greatest athletic achievement is running my first marathon last year in 3:45 – my first race after some serious IT Band issues the previous year. I have my second marathon coming up this summer (RnR Seattle). Can’t wait!! Would love to have compression clothing to make sure my muscles are getting the TLC they need! :)

I’ve won my age group in a sprint-distance triathlon. I’ll be doing Ironman Canada in August. My athletic goals include placing top 5 at an Ironman race and qualifying for Kona. Triathlons are so amazing – what other sport do you get to race on the same course at the same time with the pros?!

    My greatest athletic goal was getting back into competitive swimming. I was a swimmer in high school (but not in college) and found that I missed it. So I looked around Chicago and realized there were TONS of options for Masters Teams, and have been swimming ever since (5 years). Even though I love my normal gym classes, nothing gives me as good a workout as a hard swim set. I am proud to have kept up with it, even though jumping in a pool on a snowy winter night is tough to do, and even though the pool I swim at is very inconvenient to get to. It’s all worth it in the end!

    Gotta be hiking from Canada to Mexico with my now husband following the Continental Divide Trail. I use “following” rather loosely however, as we were lost most of the time.

    But in all reality, my greatest athletic achievement is just continuing to workout. Every night that I can go to sleep feeling I’m a bit healthier is a reason to be proud.

    And what they have in common is that every single little achievement is hugely important and they add up to big achievements.

    Before I tore my ACL, I ran distance. One year, I joined a Relay for Life team in order to raise money and awareness for Cancer research and treatment. The event had our team of 6 going for 24 hours around a track, switching off every 30 minutes. To give my sponsors a little extra incentive to give, I pledged to run each of my segments. For 24 hours, I got on that track every segment to run. I remember being woken up at 2 in the morning to switch off, putting shoes on my swollen feet, and it just being me, my blurry eyes, the stars, and the memorial candles. I’ve had to leave serious running behind for more tame sessions since my surgery, but I’ll never forget that day. And the next week, since I was quite sore for a while after that!

    One of my most proudest athletic moments was when I did a 22 mile morning glory bike ride through Cincinnati Ohio. It was about 4 years ago. My boyfriend and his friend decided to finish at 17 miles and I road the extra 5 miles through Northern Kentucky. I didn’t get off my bike once! My legs were Jell-O afterwards but It was really a great moment for me and one that I have wanted to acheive again. I think I’ll start training for this years ride ;-)

I have been reading your blog since October and you’ve convinced me to run a half marathon in April! As new runner training for the half, I’ve had my fair share of soreness and I’ve been interested in compression clothes ever since you sported those hot-pink calf sleeves!

    My greatest athletic achievement was starting to run – it has given me confidence allowed me to quit bad habits and addictions that I may not have been able to do otherwise :D

    My greatest accomplishment was deciding to run the Chicago marathon in 2010 and finishing within 2 minutes of my goal time even though it was an extremely hot day. I have been interested in trying the Aspaeris shorts for a few weeks now!

    I recently just lost 35 lbs by eating healthy, working out/strength training, and staying motivated. Now, I want to run in our hometown turkey trot at the end of the year on Thankgiving day. I’ve never been able to run it nor even finish it so * Fingers crossed * this year :)

    I am a young married girl, and I have just finished my first 5k! I have always been athletic, but never a runner until now. I’ve played team sports for years, but when I got married, I needed a way to exercise and stay in shape! I have learned to enjoy running(as much as one can!) and my goal is to run a 10k soon!

    My greatest accomplishment has been this past year! I began running and working out along with eating better and have shed and maintained a 52lb loss! I will be running my very first half marathon in May and compression shorts sound like something I definitely need to invest in!

    I think my biggest accomplishment was back in college when I finally made it to ECACs, placed, and ran a 39:56 in a 10K; since then (6 years later) I continue competing and am hoping to finally get the courage to run my first marathon!

    I never ran marathon, but I enjoy walking 5 miles whenever I can. I try to take 5 group workout classes every week. For me, that’s great accomplishment. My daughter just told me about the compression shorts and would like to get her one, but I think it’s too expensive for now..

    I’m barely getting back on my feet -literally- after surgery to repair my ruptured Achilles. In an effort to get back to an active lifestyle I have taken up the sport of Disc Golf. It gives me an opportunity to get outdoors, breath fresh air all while walking beautiful trails and courses and slowly strengthening my Achilles, ankles, calves and legs. After 6 months of doing nothing and atrophy in my calf I have noticed this will be a long and low process.

    I am sore after every match and have read rave reviews on compression gear and have been looking into getting some sleeves and shorts. If I win, this would be a great opportunity for me.

    My athletic goals are to strengthen and condition my legs so I can eventually run in one of the several races my city hosts. Another goal is to strengthen my lower body so I am confident enough to deliver power when driving the discs when I play Disc Golf. I’d like to hit my first hole in one.
