Review on StrengthTape Kinesiology Tape: 5M Precut Roll For Athletic Support & Injury Prevention - Multiple Colors! by Brian Thuo

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Helped recovery from runner's knee while training for marathon

I used this KT tape when I got runner's knee while training for a marathon. This helped a TON in my recovery. I wore it for a month on every run while I was recovering and was able to put in 50mpw without re-aggravating the injury. Without it, on every foot impact I could feel my knee sinking down into the inflamed tissue and that would cause extreme pain. With the tape, I could feel my knee wanting to sink down but the tape under my knee cap would hold it up so it didn't hit the tissue. Eventually the inflammation subsided and I was able to run without it.I also used it on my pregnant wife for pains in her lower back and hips, and the added support helped her a lot.

Pros
  • ‎Exercise & Fitness
Cons
  • May not have enough stretch for some users
