- 7. The garment of claim 3 wherein said elastic resistance bands are on the front of said garment and on the back of said garment, and said elastic resistance bands on said back of said garment having greater resistance characteristics than said elastic resistance bands on said front of said garment.
- 8. The garment of claim 3 wherein each of said longitudinally extending elastic bands of said pants portion is connected to a plurality of spaced parallel compression cuffs.
- 9. The garment of claim 3 said elastic resistance bands extending across said body portion and down said sleeves, and each of said sleeves having a compression anchoring cuff, and an end of said band being secured to said anchoring cuff.
