stupid pain

[Ghostman_SW]

You got it right in your edit. It's just for short compression therapy sessions. It really has helped me.

Showed my brother a youtube video on vodoo flossing and he just ordered some bands on Amazon. Thenk you for the advice. He has been doing finger extension exercises with a rubber webbing at the recommendation of a friend of his that does manual labor.

I told him to look for Rogue bands but he couldn't find them with the search on Amazon. Got another brand. I assume off brands are adequate?

Should be. There was a WOD brand that was decent, just rinse them off well. The powder that was on them is a little irritating.

He saw those WOD bands but ended up getting these:
Limm Muscle Compression Floss Bands - Set A: Includes 2 Levels of Compression (regular and heavy) and Travel Pouch

If Prime is on time, they should arrive tomorrow for him. Thanks for the cleaning tip.

No problem, glad to help when I can. I would start off with the regular compression for the first time. It will allow y'all to get the hang of wrapping and tucking in the free end of the floss. It's not hard to do, just overlap the wrap by about 1/3 to 1/2 the floss width as you wrap it around the arm. Y'all will need each other's help to wrap it, it's not something you can apply to yourself properly.

Don't freak if you see a little bruising or petechiae. That's normal and goes away.

Watch the video again before you use it and post up and let us know if it helps him!

He got them today in the mail. I will help him out with getting it on. Getting that rubber tucked in by yourself probably is no easy task.

My brother can't lift anymore because of manual labor work has its toll in his 40's but..we are both fair skinned so having red marks on our shoulders from squats or standing calf raises are not new...lol.

Thanks again.

Just got done wrapping both of his arms. Started with the regular compression band. Don't see how someone. like you said Almostgone, could wrap it on their own and get proper tension.

Took me two tries to get it right. It was too low on the forearm the first time and did not have enough tension.

He did the some of the exercises on a Youtube vid and was glad to get it off. The pain in his elbows were reduced after the blood rushed back in.

I did some blood flow restriction exercises in DDP Yoga so I definitely know how much of relief it is to get the bands off after your done.
