The function of knee pads and how to choose them

If young people love sports, they naturally have to have a set of knee pads. Knee pads can not only help us protect the knee joints and prevent injuries during exercise, but if you wear ripped jeans or clothes with exposed knees, wearing a layer of knee pads can also achieve the effect of keeping warm. There are many things about the role of knee pads and how to buy them, which need to be understood clearly.

How to use knee pads

Knee braces are not necessary for general sports. Because ordinary knee pads usually have a warming effect, and after wearing them, they will exert a certain amount of pressure on the patella in front of the knee, affecting the effect of exercise. If you are mountain climbing, you need to use it intermittently, not all the time. Put it on when you feel discomfort in your knees, and take it off when the condition improves, otherwise it will affect the normal muscle training.

When choosing knee pads, you don't need knee pads with particularly strong functions, because the more functional the knee pads are, the better the protection and support effects will be, the greater the range of influence on the exercise effect will be, and long-term use will greatly reduce the effect of muscle training. Professional knee braces are generally used by people who have had knee injuries. Because their knees have been injured, they lack strength and need the help of reinforced strips on both sides for support during exercise.

The role of knee pads

brake

Because mountaineering puts too much pressure on the knees, coupled with the intense exercise during mountaineering, it is easy for the patella to be pulled away from its original position, thus causing diseases in the knee joint. Wearing a knee brace can fix the patella in a relatively stable position to ensure that it is not easily injured. After a knee injury, using a heavy-duty knee brace can reduce knee flexion and protect the knee joint from further aggravating the condition.

Insulation

The knees are very susceptible to cold. Many knee diseases are related to cold knees, especially in the mountains where the wind is very cold and hard. The leg muscles often feel very hot due to constant movement, but the knees are not hot due to no muscle movement. When people feel comfortable dissipating heat from their legs, their knees are actually getting cold. At this time, if you are wearing knee pads, the warming effect of the knee pads can be reflected.

health care

On the premise of having the heat preservation and braking effect of traditional knee pads, the new far-infrared negative ion health knee pads have a far-infrared negative ion energy layer added to the manufacturing materials, which can cause resonance of subcutaneous biological molecules in the knee, thereby making the deep tissues heat up, promoting blood circulation, improving microcirculation, and relaxing meridians. Long-term wearing can effectively prevent and treat arthritis, rheumatism and other knee diseases.
