Cosmic 178 Report post Posted May 23, 2013 I read a review on hockeymonkey that "Zigtech really works!!" Has anyone who uses the Reebok products with Zigtech, experienced these claims of increased oxygen flow to muscles? The guy in the review said that his skin feels tingly or whatever and he does not fatigue as much/ as quickly. Is this just another gimmick, or has anyone here actually experienced this?

SCOMPL 14 Report post Posted May 23, 2013 It's real. My friend put on his Zig Tech and I put on my X-Ray Glasses that I bought for 750 tickets at Chuck E. Cheese's, which allowed me to see that his muscles were receiving more oxygen.Seriously, it's a marketing gimmick. Human muscles receive oxygen via the respiratory system (nose, mouth, lungs), which delivers oxygen to our blood. Only amphibians and earthworms have permeable skin which allows gasses to pass through. I would suspect that the author of that online review is experiencing Chronic Exertional Compartment Syndrome or another medical condition that causes numbness or tingling while exercising, and that he is not fatiguing as quickly because his body is adjusting to an increased exercise regimen.

hollowicked 39 Report post Posted May 23, 2013 just the fact people ask or debate about the idea of it working means reebok's marketing dept has done their job. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Thepandamancan 0 Report post Posted May 24, 2013 I'm sure on some scientific and physics level, there are benefits to zigtech...but I did not experience these benefits. I bought a pair, because it fit and it was comfortable...not because it looked cool, but I played ball hockey much better wearing a different, cheaper pair of shoes.
