What’s up my Amazon Health & Fitness Family, it’s me your boy HardbodybyAnthony. For those of you who have not read or seen any of my reviews, I am Certified Master Trainer for over 20 years & I have many certifications, one of which is a certification in Kinesiology., so because of my years of knowledge and dedication in helping people achieve healthier lives through exercise & nutrition, is the reason why I do these reviews... in hopes I can help someone, even if that is just one.I personally use Kinesiology Tape which is why I got this ProBody Tape Kinesiology Tape 2-Inch x 16.4-Feet - Designed for Knees, Feet, Elbows, Shoulders, and Back. Durable, Gentle on Skin, Easy to Cut - No Hassle.Before I move forward, let me first start off by saying that not all injuries and conditions benefit from using Kinesiology Tape, so be sure to ask your doctor whether you think something like this is right for you. It’s much better to ask first and get their opinion than use this and aggravate your condition further.Ok, so why I like like/use this tape….I can't take time off from my own training since my body is like a business card, so I work through injuries each & every day. I am a man, 44 so not a young buck anymore, so I have training miles on this body from years of weights & sports (football, Combat Sports), so I feel everything, more specifically my shoulders, so with that said, is why I use & love this. “ProBody Tape Kinesiology Tape” works great. For me, I do not feel less pain when I use this, but 1000% feel comfort which equates to less pain. I appreciate the support it gives when I am training or even when I am not training. I use it for my shoulders because It makes the area feel real stable & supported. The tape can be hard to apply in some areas i.e., I have a hard time applying the tape to my own shoulders, probably in part cause of the amount of muscle my shoulders have but I get it on even though it may not be a perfect tape job. Except for anywhere on your own back & (for me) shoulders It is easy enough to apply everywhere else. The tape stays on the applied area even through a vigorous workout as it advertises. It may be uncomfortable when you take it off e.g. Bandaid, medical tape being pulled off but nothing we can't handle unless it's being applied to a child. I advise pulling the tape off in the same direction as your hair goes. This can help prevent some issue due to the support is gives i.e, knees, ankles & chins for kids that do a lot of running & elbows, wrists & shoulders for kids that do grappling or sports that throw.CONS: It does NOT come with any instructional insert or with any illustrations not did they send an email with a PDF attachment like many do, for those who do not know how to apply this kinesiology tape which the everyday person would 100% need. The cost is a bit more expensive than the average, in fact, double the competitors pricing. Also has NO colors to choose from, so black is your only option. I like this ProBody Tape Kinesiology Tape but I would never buy it because of those CONS I’ve listed. Even though I personally know how to apply everywhere, I believe the instructional guidance for the laymen person alone is a deal breaker but then add the over pricing & there you have the reason for my 3 star review. Sorry ProBody Tape, fix this and you have a great buy.

I've used kinesiotape for about a year now off and on. I have a hand injury that can get inflamed quite often. Kinesiotape really helps with that. I actually work in a physical therapy office and usually buy my tape there, but it can get expensive. Patients love kinesiotape, and will often request their therapists to use it. There are also many professional athletes that you will see using the tape. It definitely helps. This tape is a bit less expensive, but works just as well. I like that it has grid lines on the back, so if you are cutting a specific shape it really helps. I generally keep mine on for about 2 days, and this tape stays on great. I also like that they email you a set of tips and pointers for beginners. This will help a lot of people. Overall a great product!I received this product for free in exchange for my honest review.

Does your knee hurt when you move it a specific way or does your shoulder hurt when you 'move it this way'? The doctor used to always say, "then don't do that!"Well who wants to live that way - I want full mobility and sometime it simply takes a nudge to ensure that the movement is done correctly... and that's what the Kinesiology Tape does - it helps you get back to moving properly.Make sure to thoroughly clean your skin before putting on the tape to ensure oils and other dirt off of your skin!I received this product at a discounted rate in return for my unbiased opinion.

Works as described. Good for sports players
