 Man up and have a fuckin coffee Member 2086, 9717 posts SQ 340, BP 252.5, DL 300892.5 kgs @ 158kgs UnEq | Hi Buzz , another daft question im afraid mate.... i wanted some of the triple ply Thor elbow sleeves and knee sleeves but my arm at the joint is 41cm (but your xxxl sleeves only go up to 30-32cm)and knee at joint is 51cm (and your xxxl sleeves only go up to 40-45cm)why do they make them so small when strongmans got the biggest guys in the country? is there any chance of any bigger sizes coming in please ?

Sorry for the moan but i really wanted some of those !! Hi Ursus, Yeah, they're the same dimensions as the Thor sleeves, but we'd specified the sizes and hadn't taken into account the fact that there's pretty much no give in these at all. You'd be best with XXXL knees for your elbows, and fair chance they'd fit your knees as well but would be very tight. I found I use XL knees on my knees but when I put them on my arms it's the same size I'd use on my arms, just due to the fact they're a lot easier to pull up onto the knees, and the joint is much bigger so can take more 'pressure'. We'll get some bigger sizes with the next batch though yes. | ||

 has experience of quad imbalance Member 3676, 427 posts | Hey, planning on picking up some rehband sleeves as my knees are giving me bad times in squats. Would they be a better option than odins for helping with knee pain? | ||

Would they be a better option than odins for helping with knee pain? Depends purely on how much support you're looking for. Rehbands better if just looking for warmth and a small level of support. Odins, totally different ball game, very supportive, similar to a softish wrap in the form of a sleeve. | ||

has experience of quad imbalance Member 3676, 427 posts | Think I'll get the rehbands as i generally squat raw. Guessing odins would add a bit to the lift. My knees are about 20cm around, not to sound dim but which size would be best? | ||
