Interesting. I've watched like 30 videos on knee sleeves so far (i know, over analyzing), but you're the first one that says the SBDs give you a lot of lbs on your squat. Is this true? Every other person said you might get a few lbs if that.
You'll kind of have to do your best, but in general you'll want to decrease stress to the knees. Some options: -box squats may help -may have to do more deadlifting, less squatting -may need to train the quads with something like knee extensions (IF those don't bother the knees)
@@salmanali-gi7ei Good idea. For now, we have a couple pages you can visit (one with a video - though it doesn't address your topic directly): barbell-logic.com/knee-pain-and-squatting/ barbell-logic.com/squats-and-knee-pain/
I've never worn knee sleeves before I but think I need to start. Had meniscus surgery well over 10 years ago and sometimes it burns during Squats. What would you recommend to give more support, Rehband, rogue, SBD, or another brand perhaps?
Some like 300 lb guy gave me his Rehband like 6 years ago when I think he got too big for them, and I've been using them since. They're in the same condition as always, and I just put them in the washing machine with my other stuff once in a while. I don't notice them interfering with deadlifting.
I literally almost bought ONE ☝️ 😆 I was like “ oh 😮… no ma’am , should’ve asked Santa” 😂 jk thanks for the video … i will have to invest in the Rehbands 💪
Would you keep the sleeves on through the entirety of your workout? Also, another question would these only be useful for shorts i.e. I can't wear them over joggers?
Just went to my first meet (helped spot, didn’t compete) but looking to compete soon just for fun. This was super helpful! I’ve never owned knee sleeves and genuinely wasn’t really sure what they were for until now. Thanks!
@@brianoh8192 @maxeffortliftz You're both wrong. Build a trebuchet, have someone shoot you through the air. Have the knee sleeves set up in the course of your path through the air (calculated correctly, of course) and then your knee sleeves are on.
I only own one pair of knee sleeves and they are the Rehbands which I had for 5 years. A tip to have them not stinky is to wear tights and have the sleeves over them.
sorry friend, i am against that. if you come to gym, you walk 2km normal speed. slow. than you go for 3 km on bike again normal ride, you do worm up, 20 min. you are ready to go. if still knees make noises, you do less weight. why you all pepole think that using all this equipment is no nececery?? it is not. do less weight. do better warm up. coolddown. do better training.
5km and an 20 min warmup before every training session? Look here Ghandi I don't have 4 hours to train every day so I'll make do with these knee sleeves 😂😂
Ask us all your KNEE SLEEVES and other equipment questions below!
Great video, Matt! Thanks 🔥 Gotta add a video instructing how to put knee sleeves on full length leggings 😅
We're actually working on an article that will be IN DEPTH on leggings. Good idea.
Would be nice to see a similar video for all other equipment like belts and wrist wraps with 3 tiers and usages
We've done videos on the other equipment, but not the 3-tier like you say here. Might consider, for sure. Thanks!
Loving the content.
Thanks!

We haven't done a scientific experiment here, but we have certainly noticed a difference (n=1).
Knee-oprene
Yep!
Any tips for working out with knee osteoarthritis?

Thanks for the reply. Can you put a video of how you train such people. You train seniors, though I am 35 but it can be helpful to know.

Matt, those links led to some other links all of which aided me immensely with respect to squat knee pain mitigation. Thank you.
@@sidrow11 Awesome!
Man my sleeves get stuck on my calves 😫
Maybe you're blessed with big calves.
People should wash their sleeves more often
This is probably true. Don't be gross.
Not trying to be a grammar nazi but,
I believe the pronunciation is
“Ree-Band”. Very informative video all the same.
Damn! I spent $34 on a size too small from YoungLA
Don’t try to put those SBDs on when you’re already sweaty.
Haha, thanks for the tip!

SBD definitely gives more support (really thick & tight).
Some like 300 lb guy gave me his Rehband like 6 years ago when I think he got too big for them, and I've been using them since. They're in the same condition as always, and I just put them in the washing machine with my other stuff once in a while. I don't notice them interfering with deadlifting.
Hey, if it works, it works. Glad they're working for you - great knee sleeves!
No link to buy the sleeves??

Haha, they are awesome (and they last).
Namaste Brother 🙏🕉🌸.
Thanks

Totally fine to keep on the entire time (except for deadlift).
You could wear them over or under pants as well.
Just went to my first meet (helped spot, didn’t compete) but looking to compete soon just for fun. This was super helpful! I’ve never owned knee sleeves and genuinely wasn’t really sure what they were for until now. Thanks!
Glad it helped.
I came here for the sniffing smelly stuff content.
as one does
That’s not how you put the sbds on, you have to fold the bottom sir
False, you put them on your elbows

I didn't know cold knees was a thing.
that's a very ineffective way to apply sbd knee sleeves

Can you even squat 4 plates?
Does the stickier side go on the inside or the outside?
inside
