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.

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!!!

    Wow! great product for giveaway! I’m in the process of training for my very first half marathon, and have had a few issues with my hip. I’ve been doing a lot of research on compression gear. I’d love to be able to try these out!

    I have never used any compression gear but would love to! While half marathon training I always would get sore hips around mile 7, maybe compression shorts will be the cure!

    I wear compression knee high socks when I do long runs for marathon training and I always wear them during a race. They are great!

    I’ve never used any compression gear but I’ve always wanted to! Financially my family has just been struggling some so purchasing fitness gear has been on hold, I’ve been wearing the same old things forever it seems! The only thing I’ve honestly tried to keep up with is shoes, I’ve already learned the pain that comes from running on bad or old worn-out shoes lol. It’s awesome all these companies are willing to help people out for the holidays and donate their stuff for this! God bless all of them!

    I have wore compression socks and love them. I also bought a very expensive pair of medical compression thigh highs to wear to bed when my legs are really sore. They may not look cute but I notice a huge improvement when I wear them. I would love to try out these shorts!

    I started wearing compression socks this year and they have definitely help a lot with my shin splints. Now that I have been suffering from some hip injuries I definitely want to give these a try to see if they would make a difference!

    Just started training for my first half marathon. I was looking for some running tights at target and unknowingly bought their compression tights. I love running with them and they keep my legs nice and warm on my cold runs. It would be nice to have a shorter pair since the weather around here cannot seem to make up its mind if it is going to be hot or cold.
    Love your blog Julie!!

    I have only tried CW-X brand and I love them. So, it would be interesting to try a different brand and see the comparison.
