streak | Knee wraps | 26-11-2011 @ 21:48 | |
they call him the streak Member 2002, 400 posts SQ 182.5, BP 130, DL 240552.5 kgs @ 100kgs UnEq | After squatting tonight I decided to try my knee wraps for the first time. Oyf are they meant to be so uncomfy? They felt completely weird/alien. And now my calfs ache like buggery. I only did one squat with them lol How best do I progress with them? | ||

I work as a boner Member 3115, 490 posts SQ 240, BP 140, DL 300680.0 kgs @ 132kgs Eq | If they feel tight and uncomfortable you've probably got them on right. All i did was look on youtube for vids on how to put them on, and played about for what way suited me best. | ||

Sports an extremely muscular arse. Member 38, 6253 posts | They are meant to feel tight yeah, but if your calves ache you may have had them on too low. You'll get most benefit from the wrap on the knee and above rather than below. I start with just one loop below the knee, then wrap upwards and finish in the middle. You don't need too much below the knee. | ||

I read on here once that Tom Martin knows he has the wraps on right if they make him bleed! (or words to that effect ) | ||

You don't need too much below the knee. I think they were too low, with a few loops below the knee. Cheers. | ||
