Glucose uptake.

<p>M. quadriceps femoris (above) and m. biceps femoris (below) without and with compression during recovery from high intensity exercise.</p

All subjects’ pressure of the shorts at different areas of the thigh.

A representative example of muscle blood flow PET image before (rest) and after (recovery) the high intensity exercise.

<p>This figure illustrates that blood flow is lower in compressed compared to non-compressed leg. The color bar on the right side of the figures represents the quantitative scale for blood flow values.</p
