5MM Elbow Sleeves

I didn’t have very high hopes in this product just because of the debilitating pain I’d have from doing any tricep exercise. To the point I’d have to quit my workout early and afterwards I’d have zero muscle soreness due to a failed workout but horrible elbow pain. When I tried these I was amazed by how I was finally able to complete a workout for triceps and chest. I measured around my arms and used the size chart and the ones I bought seem to be super tight. To the point it’s almost a workout just to get them on and positioned right. I found it easier to put them on inside out on my forearms and roll them on over my elbows. Great product. The wrist straps I don’t really use much at the moment but they’re definitely rigid and offer a lot of support as intended.

30 plus years ago I trained hard as a bodybuilder. So full of testosterone we weren't concerned about injury. Now at 59, still working as self employed and training as well, prefer to prevent injury. I was beginning to have discomfort in my elbow and wrists from heavier lifting. One of the bodybuilders I follow on the internet spoke highly of another brand of elbow support, but I wasn't convinced that an $80 support was necessary, so I gave these a try figuring Amazon is reasonable about returns.I measured for size from their website, ordered accordingly. Gymreapers responded with a very nice email. The order included 2 elbow supports and 2 wrist supports. The quality seemed impressive, the stitching, material and plenty of Velcro on the wrist straps. The elbow supports fit me fairly snug, comfortably snug. They made my skin slightly itchy, not bothersome itchy. They did not move, or slide down my arm, nor inhibit movement during each one hour workout. The wrist supports worked great, plenty of support, enough that I did not have any concern doing the heavy work. really like the logo as well.Most likely, like many others, experiences are not always positive ordering on line. Gymreapers contacted me upon placing the order, and after receiving the order expressing their interest in making sure everything was satisfactory. My personal experience, along with the warm fuzzy feeling of a company that seems to actually care, is a product that is well designed, functional, well made and priced fairly. At this point I am very satisfied with the supports, and the outreach from Gymreapers. I am not affiliated with this company, nor received any percs, just a consumer that likes to buy reasonable quality for my hard earned money. On a rare occasion a product exceeds expectation, this one did just that.

Accurate size chart listed. Felt better when lifting

I purposely purchased the elbow sleeves because I was experiencing tennis elbow. I have to say I’m not a big fan of the elbow sleeves, they aren’t the most comfortable and are thick. I can’t say that they helped with the tennis elbow BUT the wrist wraps that came with the sleeves are amazing. They are soft and stretchy with enough support for heavy lifting while keeping my wrists stable. I will forever purchase the wrist wraps when needed over the other brands I’ve had. I was using ELITEFTS wraps for over a year now as I thought they were great until I tried these. A world of a difference in feeling. Get the wrist wraps for sure.

The media could not be loaded. I’m most impressed with the quality of the materials! The compression and the way it keeps my elbows “warm” is better than any product I’ve used in the past. Sizing chart was accurate, as these sleeves fit very well. Great product!

The media could not be loaded. These elbow sleeves have been a great product for me. I have had bad tennis elbow recently which left me unable to do anything in the gym. I bought these and they have helped me tremendously. I would recommend to anyone!

I started lifting again after many years of being lazy and noticed some pain in my elbows. These are the first elbow sleeves I've ever bought and am very impressed. Elbows stayed warm, no pain and I hit a new Bench PR with ease.The wrist wraps were a bonus that I wasn't sure I even needed since I already had a pair. I went ahead and have them a try. These are great too and I'll be using these from now on and tossing the old ones.

I have purchased many elbow braces over the years and unfortunately have lost many over the years (leaving them at the gym). I typically spend $30-40 on a good set of braces but this time I needed to get wrist wraps too as my last pair had simply given up the ghost through years of use. I read the good reviews and realized these braces are for weightlifters (not meant for use on the tennis court, lol). There are so many of these types of things for sale on Amazon, I never really know for sure what to get but since I needed wrist wraps too this was a no brainer.Wrist wraps: good heavy duty wraps that are long enough but not too long to feel cumbersome. They keep your wrist supported during pushing exercises and curls (really the main movements that affect your wrists). So they passed the test.Elbow Braces: they give your elbows the support they need especially during heavy pressing movements and movements that typically hurt your elbows such as push downs and skull crushers. I have bought many braces before that simply aren't long enough to provide the full support I feel like I need and these are plenty long enough to get the job done. The fabric also feels substantial and tight enough to provide support. I see complaints on here about the braces being too tight but that is really the whole purpose (compression and support) without cutting off your circulation. I got the XXL and they are tight where they are supposed to be (just like they should be). So these are a winner for me and at the price a nice alternative to many of the more expensive elbow braces out there.Overall: So they both (wrist wraps and elbow braces) passed the test for me and are at a really good value. They do have a "new" smell to them out of the package but that goes away with one wash (yes you meatheads, you should definitely wash your weightlifting gear). They appear to be plenty durable and if that changes, I will update my post. This was the first time I bought this brand and it was a nice surprise.
