Compression Clothing

I wear a SPANX compression shirt to help control the loose skin in the mid section while running, but I feel like it restricts my breathing a little and makes it harder to consume food and drink during the runs.  Any suggestions out there?

Old Navy has a decent line of compression clothes at good costs a while back.  I haven't checked in a while, but I'd recommend them if they still have them

I use Under Armour for everything.  

But it sounds like the issue might be your clothing is a bit too compressive?  Try a larger size perhaps?

I have some under Armour long sleeve stuff for the colder weather when i cycle. I have tried a larger size but I get a flopping feeling when i run :/

Try Old Navy or see if Flexees has something that will work for you. I hate Spanx, but love flexees. They feel totally different to me.

Typically i just try to use tailwind. I will drink coffee with coconut oil at least an hour or so before I run. I will try to "sip" the tailwind every couple of miles, but at about 9 to 10 miles in it will start coming back up. Once I remove my compression shirt I can drink normal.
