And good on you for trying it out for yourself instead of relying on all the "experts" that gave you advice to the contrary.
there were quite a few people who use the stuff on here who had alot of good things to say.
I think if you can be fit and also use something like this to help keep you cool and get sweat away from the body then so be it.
Plus the GP boys are using Skins now and they are ultra fit

How much a pressure suit will effect you (if at all) will vary from person to person but for what it's worth this has been my experience:
I have been dealing with CFS for a number of years now and as a normal course of events, two hours on my mountainbike takes a minimum of four days to recover (if I have pushed too hard then up to six) and three to four hours on my Speedy Four will usually see me arriving home quite sore and recovery will take at least a couple of days.
A few weeks ago I bought the Canterbury version of the compression suit (long sleeve top and full length pants - $149 each from Stirling Sports). Having been off the mountain bike for nearly three months I was expecting a tough time first ride up. While I certainly had lost some of the little fitness I had, the ride was much better than I thought and the recovery substantially shorter (only a couple of days). I need to do some longer rides to see how they effect endurance.
Did not go for a motorbike ride yesterday, despite the great weather, as it had been a long week, including driving from Taupo to New Plymouth and then to Christchurch and back and I felt pretty sore and tired, too much so to feel safe on my bike. Went for a three hour blast today around a route I do quite often. Wore my compression suit under my leathers (don't rely on these to keep you warm!) and had the best ride ever and arrived home sans any kind of pain, apart from my osteoarthritic hip (see what happens when you get old...) but that's another deal altogether.
All hardly conclusive proof of anything but certainly seems to be heading in the right direction...
