Aspaeris Pivot Shorts Giveaway

December 13, 2012

The birthday giveaway trains rolls on as the big day draws nearer.  Today we’re talking about another one of my favorite things: booty compression. Hard workouts have a way of making hamstrings, hips and glutes tired and angry. Mine always seem to be in some state of angst.

Aspaeris Pivot Shorts are designed to combat that angst. They feature Dual Sensory Compression Bands that work in 3 ways:

  1. Guide your muscles into proper alignment so your running form doesn’t go to hell in a hand basket when you’re super tired.
  2. Expedite recovery by improving circulation.
  3. Better body alignment reduces the chance of injury.

aspaeris

Here I am rocking my Pivot Shorts at the Ragnar Madison to Chicago Relay last summer.  Our entire team (the notorious Panty Raiders) enjoyed their butt and hammy soothing properties.

I first tested and reviewed these at the beginning of the year. Since then they’ve become a staple of my running wardrobe. I especially love wearing them under running skirts. They keep tired muscles feeling fresh when they’re anything but and they never ride up or chafe.  The fun doesn’t end when the workout does either. I keep an extra pair on hand to wear for recovery. I may or may not jam ice packs in them after long runs.

Buy now and save 60%! Now through January 31, 2013, while limited inventory lasts, shorts can be purchased for $24 each with free shipping on two or more pairs. This special offer is available exclusively at www.AspaerisPivotShorts.com by using the promo code FROSTYRUN. Orders placed by December 17 are guaranteed delivery by December 22.

WIN IT!

One lucky reader will win a pair of Aspaeris Pivot Shorts!

    I just ordered my first pair a couple days ago (at that insanely cheap price, I couldn’t say no)! I am SO excited to get mine and try them!

    I NEED this because my hips and butt are constantly out of whack messing everything else up resulting in me not running…this is a really BAD thing says my husband who says I’m a tad crabby when I don’t run. Me??

    I need these for my hamstring. They’ve got to help, can’t make them worse! I imagine the compression will make the long runs easier on it.

  13. Molly says

    December 13, 2012 at 11:33 am

    I pulled the seam of my current pair of compression shorts, and any day now they’re going to completely fall apart, so I really need a new pair of these!!!

  14. jennifer says

    December 13, 2012 at 12:05 pm

    LOVE these! I think these would be perfect for my lifting workouts, too! The length is perfect and would be great for squats!

  15. DisneyBride says

    December 13, 2012 at 12:12 pm

    I NEED these because I’m gradually losing weight and things fit differently. Saggy running capris aren’t cutting it. I don’t currently have any running shorts. So I’ll wear these often!

  16. scrappytbear says

    December 13, 2012 at 12:13 pm

    everything I wear lately chafes the skin off me! I need something that doesnt!

  25. Carmen Peterson says

    December 13, 2012 at 4:08 pm

    I do own one pair, but I could use another pair so I have one to have on hand for recovery. Wearing the same pair gets kind of stinky!!!!

    This is one give-away I’ve got to figure out how to enter (I’m tech challenged!). I really want to try those shorts! I hate to buy them because I’ve tried on many pairs of shorts, capris and pants that are fitted and they make my butt look awful!!! You would think I just sat on it all day and never worked it. Maybe the compression shorts would be better?!

  31. Michelle @ Running with Attitude says

    December 13, 2012 at 6:41 pm

    I need these because I just joined the 13 in 2013 challenge so there’s a lot of racing and recovery planned for the new year!

  32. Debbie @ Live from La Quinta says

    December 13, 2012 at 7:08 pm

    I am still very self conscious about my belly, even after losing 75lbs. With those on, I feel like I could be carefree and not worry about how I look when running 🙂

  57. Meghan says

    December 14, 2012 at 7:54 pm
