Physiclo Pro Resistance Men's Compression Full-Length Tight Training Pants with Built-in Resistance Band Technology

Difficult to put on; painful to wear. I fail to see what advantages might accrue from wearing these while working out. I am 6' 2", 190, and bought size L, as recommended, but the fit was awful. Wish I could return them.

This is most definitely, one of the best resistance training bands. Works my legs harder, but at the same time also providing nice comfort and coolness during intense workout sessions. While the price is most certainly up there, I will go and say these were worth every penny for the money of time I spend working my body.

Great training tool. Once I figured the best way to put them on, it was awesome.

I have been wearing the Physiclo compression tights during my winter runs, which avg 6-13 miles. Initially they were very tight in compression and resistance in the thigh and glute areas. My normal run stride had a lot of resistance at first but I think that's the whole point. At race pace it was even more noticeable. After several runs my body has acclimated to the resistance and it knows it has to do 'a little extra' to maintain the same stride. The difference is most noticeable when I do back to back runs on following days, the second day with out is always easier. I like them for the strength of materials, they keep me warm outdoors and for the extra resistance it gives me for training.

I have been using these pants for almost a month now and I love them. I have not found anything to complain about this product. First off these are great for anyone training or getting into shape. I'm currently running to try and get back into shape for uncle Sam's pto test which is a 2 mile run for a 36 year old. The pants have helped me shave off minutes off my time. I will also say I have bad veins in one of my legs where they like to swell up. These pants are absolutely great in they reduce my veins swelling in my calf and my legs feel great after I wear them. I recommend these pants for anybody training or even having pain from walking all day these pants have have made a positive impact on my daily life it so unbelievable just how great these are. Well worth the money I paid for them.

I just wanted to start by saying that the quality of these tights seem superb. Out of the box I was really surprised at the weight and thickness of these. They really felt like they were made from some high quality fabric that would hold up. Unfortunately the fit of them was not right for me. I am pretty tall and thin 6'-1" and 160lbs with a 31.5" waist and these tights did not come close to fitting at all. I ordered the medium and the waist fit fine, but everything else was a bit off. The thighs were too loose, and the legs of pants were way too short. They looked more like capris than tights. I really think that the company has a great idea with these, but I would really like to see some tall sizes like 2XU has. I went ahead and returned the tights and ordered a pair of their shorts in a small. I am hopeful that these will fit better.

These pants are a great way to add resistance to your workout. The built-in resistance bands are not so tight that they'll unduly restrict your movement or provide a workout in and of themselves, but they do add a noticeable extra oomph to what you're already doing. And since the bands are anatomically placed to work your glutes, quads, and hip flexors, they'll toughen up your squats, runs, plyometrics, or just about any other lower body work. I'm not sold that they'll cut your workout time as the ads claim, but when you do the same workout you normally would, you'll definitely feel more tired and get more benefit from it. One word of caution: when walking around after my workout, I noticed that my stride was shorter than usual. So while I didn't notice it while running & jumping, there is enough resistance there to mess with your form if you're not careful. Wearing the Physiclo's makes me be extra careful with my technique - which is a good thing, really. Technique is everything in fitness.As for build quality, they are made of thick, heavy fabric, and the bands do add extra weight. These are not flimsy compression pants that you'll have to replace in a few months! They are a little bit of work to get on, but no big deal.Overall, I'm very impressed with these - they're definitely high-end training gear. I liked them so much, I ended up getting the shorts for summer and pants for winter training.

I am currently training for a marathon and have used these primarily when doing lower body strength work and cardio. The built in resistance allows me to get a great workout in without having to use a ton of extra weight during squats, lunges and deadlifts. I’ve even tried to run with these tights, however I have a relatively short stride which kind of negates the effectiveness of the product. I did find that they’re excellent on a stairclimber and elliptical machines since they require a much fuller range of motion. Since using this product I’ve seen my training run times improve and I feel much stronger when running. I’ve also noticed slight gains in my squat and deadlift numbers as well. The one downside I will say is adjusting to the fit of the pants. They are quite snug and sometimes I feel like there’s a constant wedgie but I have grown used to it over time.
