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!!!

    Prior to my first 5K back in October, I had never worn compression anything. In fact, I wasn’t really sure what all the hype was about. However, I developed severe shin splints during the training. The guy at the running store suggested I use compression sleeves for my shins, and I have loved them ever since.

    I’d really like to try these compression shorts as I am currently experiencing problems with my hip flexor.

    I have always been tempted to try compression shorts but I have never bought them. I am a ski instructor so I think these shorts would be an excellent addition to my typical ski gear.

    I haven’t used compression gear regularly since my high school and college soccer days! We always wore them underneath our regular shorts for sliding purposes, but I never realized the other benefits that they had! I’m going to see if I can dig mine out of storage but a new pair would be even better!

    I wear compression socks(knee high) after long runs, they keep my calf pain away amazingly well! I’d love to try these shorts, I’ve been having hip pain lately.

    I have never tried compression gear but I’m excited to try it out. I’m a new-ish runner; I’ve been running 5ks and 10ks for about 6 months and could really benefit from something like this. Great giveaway!

    It’s been awhile since I’ve used compression gear, mainly because I lost weight and most of what I have no longer fits. (A good problem to have!) I also have been doing more cross-training than running, and haven’t felt like I’ve needed it. But I’ve got a few big races on the calendar for next year, and I’d love to win these hot shorts! 🙂

    I live in compression sleeves – I collected a serious stock of them this summer while marathon training. I get asked about them all the time and am a huge advocate. I’ve been wanting to try compression shorts for some time since I have hip issues – would love to try the Aspaeris Pivot Shorts

    I’ve only worn compression sleeves on my shins for shin splints and they helped tremendously. I’ve always wanted to buy compression leggings or shorts but they’re so expensive, this would be a great prize!

    Although I don’t any experience with compression gear, I am so anxious to try it out! Compression sleeves are probably the number one item on my Christmas list this year, but having a pair of compression shorts would also be lovely as I’ve been experiencing some unpleasant hip discomfort. Thank you!!!
