A fascinating feature of this bad boy workout warrior shirt is the materials mix. The Sensoria Fitness T-Shirt is created with a special textile called Emana that is made of 74% polyamide, 18% polyester and 8% elastane.
This temperature intelligent, breathable, sweat wicking fabric helps automatically thermoregulate your body temperature in most climates while it also helps improve your blood circulation. More efficient thermoregulation of your body during workouts can significantly reduce total oxygen consumption, which results in less muscle fatigue, more productive workouts and runs, and faster recovery times.
Lastly, for those of us tired of the smartwatch nightly charging routine, one of the best features of this top shelf workout warrior shirt is the battery, which lasts for 8 months.
