 Member 3241, 2043 posts SQ 1, BP 192, DL 255448.0 kgs @ 136kgs UnEq | Some of these: https://www.strengthshop.co.uk/sleeves-wraps-straps/elbow-sleeves/t... And one of these to play with at the gym: https://www.strengthshop.co.uk/equipment-and-bars/strongman-equipme...  Who's got the elbow sleeves? How do you find them? I've got bursitis on my right elbow currently; it's fine on pressing exercises but find it painful on deads, lat pulldowns and bicep curls etc... It seems to be the compression of the elbow that hurts; not the extension Using Vulcan neoprene elbow sleeves currently as had them from my rugby days but they're thin and only really keep my elbows warm. The Thor ones look fairly meaty! | ||

 a champion ...from the future !! Member 1806, 3968 posts SQ 210, BP 140, DL 240590.0 kgs @ 89kgs UnEq | Av got the knee & elbow ones, really good but they have started to go a bit slack altho sticking them in a hot wash and a tumble dryer seems to have made them stiffer again | ||

I work as a boner Member 3115, 490 posts SQ 240, BP 140, DL 300680.0 kgs @ 132kgs Eq | I've got the thor elbow and knee sleeves, they give great support, mind there a bit of a chew to get on with being so stiff, but a bit of talk helps them go on nicely. | ||

Aiming for a 250 squat by the end of 2012 Member 1989, 3168 posts SQ 240, BP 140, DL 270650.0 kgs @ 90kgs UnEq | I've got the elbow sleeves and about to buy the knee sleeves. I think they're great. i used to get really sore and painful elbows when pressing heavier stuff but since using them it's much better. | ||

Member 3366, 247 posts SQ 200, BP 150, DL 230580.0 kgs @ 92kgs UnEq | I have got the knee and the elbow sleeves. I have tendon trouble in my right forearm / elbow and it has really subsided since using these. Like someone already said, very tight to get on when brand new - the first few times putting them on is a whole body warm up and workout!! | ||

Member 2092, 592 posts SQ 190, BP 140, DL 220550.0 kgs @ 123.7kgs UnEq | I have these sleeves both for elbows and knees, get a bit out of them feel very good moving but can't stand the elbow sleeves on all the time I have to take mine off between sets or my forearms go numb and biceps pump up quick! | ||

I found that on Friday night; however just rolled mine own onto my forearms and I was fine... Very impressed with them though | ||
