Knee Brace?

[alexb]

Hey bros - I have some pain in my knee when I squat and want to get a slip on knee brace. What is the difference between a closed brace and the open knee cap version? When is one better than the other? Thanks.

do you know what is wrong with your knee? there are about a bazillion different knee braces for a bazillion different things, it really depends on your specific needs.

If there is something wrong with your knee, and it is causing you pain when you squat then I would probably stop squatting until I had it checked out by a physio or a doc.they will be able to advise you on the best knee brace for your condition

I had some knee surgery years ago from an old injury..i used to wear my knee brace that te doc gave me when i squat but the thing was so worn out it was really rediculous..it was an opne knee cap with some reinforcements on the side...I was searching for a replacement and so far ive found that for te money knee wraps are pretty friggin good..you can wrap tight, loose..the choice is yours based upon the weight your using.. I would suggest some inzer or titan wraps..cheap and effective
