I bought them because I have really bad thumbs. They do help me. But they are not really stiff so if you need to immobilize they won't do it. they do offer healing warmth and gentle support.

depends on how hard you pull. I use them for working out too. What are you going to do with them?

i usually use them on heavy bench press days and sometimes on power cleans. They work good for that. If you just do not want your wrist to bend too much, then these are for you.

I think so. I have to get on my knees sometimes for my work and these really save my knees. Hope this helps.

Depends on the frequency of use. They're really light weight, so if you're looking for excersize they'll be a little lacking. Try getting a heavier set.

I would say yes, no and maybe on this one. It depends on the level of inflammation.If it is in an acute stage, using them could cause more discomfort, even though they might be useful to release some of the tension in the connection tissue. Certainly they are useful to keep the feet flexible and open, so they could be considered proactive. And as the inflammation and contraction release, they will be useful to massage the entire area really effectively.

I used it for a strained hamstring and it helped - you just have to get the size that will go up high enough. Good luck!

Hi Pam, sorry, I don't know if they do or not. I experienced calf muscle cramps while wearing them. They just were not for me.

Yes, but I have not tried for your specific sports requests. I expect it would work, but you will sweat in that area, as the material is not breath-able.You might want consider compression shorts instead. Ie, if you are doing these very active sports, you must not be hurting too bad already.

The stays give good support for lateral to medial movement (twisting motion). I have some really complicated braces which I wouldn't recommend unless you are a younger person with knee injuries. I like these, they relief the pain and over use of knees that need to be replaced in the very near future.

I'd say no. 1. These won't stay on the way you want. (Especially if you're doing kicking drills etc.) They slip and you'll spend more time being annoyed and adjusting than training. 2. The material is cheap. I kept having to come up with new fixes for these. Now they just sit in my closet. Actually I might as well throw them out. 3. They're actually not that heavy. I've worn combat boots that were heavier.

Yes. I've actually used them alot for pullups and deadlifts and they work great.

I am not a sports medicine expert by any means, however, I find them perfect on uneven ground. They hold your ankle firmly in position. It works for my sprained ankle.

I use mine for cross-fit style work outs at the fire station to support my knees that suffered moto-cross abuse in the past. I think they would work, but, they advise to not leave them on for long/extended periods. Lots of stair climbs, squats, lunges, sprints, and mobility. Does that help any?

I don't think it's more effective at all. There are many techniques for helping to stretch hamstrings and if I knew then what I know now I would not have purchased this device. Muscles should never be forced to lengthen; they should be RELEASED to lengthen and this product wont do that. In fact you really don't need to buy anything to do the job safely.
