Do it brah, I wear knee sleeves for all my lower body movements, and elbow sleeves for all pressing movements, thinking it might help prevent injury or joint problems like tendonitis.

I'll take one soon



I initially bought them because I thought they would add weight to my squat. And they did. The reason I tried them for the hack squat was because I didn't feel like going to the gym so I wanted to try something different to make it interesting.

Ah, I feel the knee sleeves cut depth for me so I don't go as low with the slight restriction they place. They do work for sure, but only time I feel necessary with them is intense knee pain or nagging knee pain.

If you want something interesting, get a voodoo flossing band. Tie it tight around the bottom and upper knee.



That should really force out some blood.

They do feel nice. I don't really feel like I'm gonna injure myself without them though

Yeah they might cut depth a little bit and probably make it easier in the bottom. But I'm thinking the extra weight or reps might make up for that.

Never heard of the voodoo floss stuff. I'll read up on it.

I used to get tendonitis in my elbow joints from pressing movements, there was no warning until it was too late, I'm hoping sleeves prevents that from happening again.
