Decathlon have some good sub £20 compression tops.The best thermal compression top I've found is the Under Armour one, they tend to be pricey, but I picked mine up for £20 from JJB - just look for retailers in trouble.
You've got to be fucking kidding!"Thanks to its constant natural emission of infrared rays, it has a beneficial effect on the properties of water and water-based liquids."Honestly, L. Ron Hubbard couldn't make this shit up.
For what its worth I actually made a compaint to the ASA about this - and to their credit they followed it up - and a week or so ago I had the following in an email:"Thank you for contacting the Advertising Standards Authority. Please accept my apologies for the delay in writing to you. We have now received confirmation from the websites you referred to in your complaint that the material concerning Accapi clothing is editorial material rather than paid-for advertising.I’m sorry to tell you that we can’t deal with your complaint because it relates to editorial material. The ASA isn’t entitled to regulate that so I suggest you write to the Editor of the websites in question. I hope you find this useful and are able to pursue your complaint.Our website, www.asa.org.uk, contains more information about the ASA and the work we do."

Depends on how they fit you; a lot of compression tops on me are tight round the forearms but a bit loose round the biceps.
do you find they help you get pumped Serpico?
