Fits tight, feels great, helps me get through my workouts. Looks fantastic.
I write this review over half a year after buying and it still fits snug as a bug in a rolled up rug. Weightlifter here. I definitely recommend this if you have any kind of elbow tendinitis or simply want to add a small amount of support to one or more elbow. I started getting some left medial tendinitis (aka golfer's elbow) from pressing exercises. Especially dips (which I stopped doing because they suck). I still get the pain after a hard workout in the gym, but it seems to be fine otherwise. Wearing this helps a lot. It feels very snug, but it's something you'll get used to. In fact, that's what you want. Compression garments don't help with performance, but they help mitigate pain. Which may indirectly help your performance. I wear this when I eat after my lifts to keep the joint warm and try to encourage a little extra blood flow. I recommend keeping it on during the cool down period. It just feels better once the endorphins wear off. Regardless of medical efficacy, it feels better with the sleeve. One caveat about washing it - I hand wash it with my lifting gloves and notice that the water is a little blue. I don't wash it a lot (sue me), but I think the colors will fade noticeably with frequent washing. Fair warning. Icing on top - it's stylish AF. Get swole, muchachos!
