Spring is one of the best seasons of the year to enjoy running. The sunny days arrive, the temperatures rise, but are still pleasant and not stiflingly hot... it makes you want to go out and the first flowers and fresh grass also invite you to enjoy the parks and paths while practising sport.
Running is also a cheap sport, and in spring and summer you only need two items of clothing and a pair of trainers to do it. Since you don't need to spend a fortune to do it, it is advisable to choose the clothes you are going to use well in order to enjoy it to the fullest, and women's running tights are one of the items that cannot be missing.
Whether it's your first time trying running, you're just getting back into running after the winter, or you're an experienced runner, now is the time to equip yourself with some good running shoes, women's running tights, and a comfortable top and start gradually getting into shape.
There are a wide variety of women's running tights with very different colors, features and prices, but there are some factors that you should take into account when buying yours. With these seven tips you can choose the perfect women's running tights and enjoy running this spring.
Tips for choosing women's running tights
Shorts are also a good option for running, but the truth is that, in the case of women, tights are much more advisable to achieve the necessary comfort for running. With tights, the fabric fits much better to the body and discomfort is avoided.
Flexible and comfortable
The most important thing in running is the movement of the legs, and for this to happen without interference or hindrance, your women's running tights should have just the right amount of elasticity and fit your body well.
If they are too loose or too tight, you will not be able to run comfortably and you will soon stop training.
Be careful with the seams
The most important thing when it comes to women's running tights is to avoid friction, which can lead to irritation or even injury. To achieve this, you need to make sure that the tights have flat seams or are seamless.
In both cases, you will prevent your running sessions from causing annoying irritation.
Breathable
This is an essential aspect, especially now that the heat is coming. Tights must be breathable and prevent sweat from accumulating.
There are fabrics that are more or less breathable, but Anaissa has created the Ymax fabric that allows sweat to be quickly evacuated when the outside temperature rises and also provides very fast drying so that you do not have the uncomfortable sensation of sweat sticking to your body. This innovative fabric incorporates microparticles of caffeine and vitamin E to help you hydrate, tone and lose weight.
Better with high waist
The high waist allows the women's running tights to hold in place better and makes movements much more natural and comfortable. It prevents you from having to worry about whether the leggings are moving or falling down and offers extra peace of mind for running at the pace you prefer.
Choose bright colors
Although black flatters the figure, there are many other colours that will look great on you. It is better to opt for bright or light colours because if you are going to run late in the afternoon or very early in the morning, it will be much easier for you to be seen by cars, bikes or scooters in areas with little light.
Intense shades also provide more vitality and a better mood for your training session.
Decide if you need them with pockets
You have many options for women's running tights that have pockets. They can be useful for carrying your phone if you don't want to use a strap on your arm or waist to carry your smartphone, but above all they will be very useful for carrying your card in case you go to get something to eat, your keys or even tissues.
Having a pocket in your tights is a very personal thing. Some athletes find it essential and others find it annoying, but once you get used to it, everything becomes much more complicated if it isn't there.
Keep in mind where you are going to run
If you're going to do trail running, shorts are not a good idea. It's much better if you choose long women's running tights to avoid hitting rocks or mud and dirt. You'll also have to make sure the fabric is durable.
If you're going to run in the city, the options are much wider. However, in summer it's very difficult to resist the temptation of running in shorts or capris, no matter how breathable long tights are, so it's best to have women's running tights for winter, mid-season and summer.
Bet on technology
Your women's running tights will provide you with a garment that you can wear comfortably while running. This sport has important cardiovascular benefits and helps you lose weight, but your new tights can lead you to achieve many more benefits by practicing it.
In this sense, new fabrics allow you to achieve extra benefits with the use of some garments. At Anaissa you have running tights for women that reinforce some additional aspects for your training.
Ymax
As we have already mentioned, the Ymax fabric facilitates the breathability of the garment when the outside temperature rises, but, in addition, its microcapsules of caffeine and vitamin E reinforce hydration, firm and give elasticity to the skin and reduce the feeling of tiredness after practicing sports.
Emanates
If the goal is to lose weight, the minerals inserted in the matrix of the Emana model thread allow the tights made with it to absorb the heat emitted by the body and transform it into infrared rays that accelerate the dissolution of fat.
Practicing running regularly will allow you to lose weight and if, in addition, you do it with women's running tights from Emana you will be able to reach your goal more easily.
Compression tights
Compression running tights for women deserve a separate chapter because they are highly recommended for running. As we have mentioned before, the fit is very important and compression tights prevent the appearance of wrinkles and make the stride much safer and more regular.
In addition, compression tights will help you shape your legs and abdomen if they are high-waisted while you run, so you will get many more benefits from just one garment. In this sense, Anaissa has a long tradition in the manufacture of compression garments that has been updated over time to incorporate new, more effective fabrics.
