The Tommy Kono Kneebands were created for the purpose of giving support, stability and warmth to the knees. It should be worn whenever knees are vigorously used. You will gain confidence in the knowledge that you are taking precaution in protecting this vulnerable, most important joint.
Made in 1964, Tomy Kono gave his friend Gary Cleveland, a weightlifter who made the 1964 Tokyo Olympic Games, a pair of the original knee bands before he left for the Olympic Games. He had been using them for training, running, bicycling and hiking until the year 2000 when the seam of one of the pair started to come unglued. Thirty-six years of use is good testimonial of a quality product, don't you think?
Last year the kneebands were re-designed and are now manufactured with a far superior material than the original ones.
At the last Arnold Fitness Expo, the Tommy Kono Kneebands were purchased by large men who were into Strongman competition, Power Lifting and Bodybuilding for use on their elbows. It seems their elbows, as the knees, are taxed repeatedly and the support, stability and warmth the bands create works well on the elbows just as it does for the knees.
After you try them once, you will not want to exercise without them. If you use your legs vigorously at work, play or in sports, you will feel more stable and reassured of your body movement with them on. Your knees will feel warm and secure; and when the time comes to take them off, your knees will feel well lubricated and feel like new.
The Tommy Kono Kneebands come in Small, Medium and Large sizes as follows:
Small- for anyone who weighs up to 130lb. Also fits elbow 11"to 14"
Medium- for anyone who weighs between 130 to 250 lb. Also fits elbow 14"+
Large - for anyone who weighs over 250lb.
When the kneebands are worn for awhile, they will mold to conform with your knees shape.
