This thing works - you owe yourself $7 to fix a problem! January 28, 2009

This product is a solution to a problem that I thought could not be fixed. For years after a hard run I had what I thought to be shin splints. I think what I had was to be more accuratly described as patellar syndrone. The cliff notes version is there is a tendon that is attached to your knee and runs the length of your shin and if you knee cap is out of alignment it hurts really really bad to run or do anything if you aggrivate it.
To me it felt like there was some bone shards or something that were just poking out from the bone. It was not a disabling pain, but it was painful enough to where walking was uncomfortable. I could not run because the pain was too much. I described this to one of my friends one day and he mentioned products like this one were being advertised in runners world. On a whim I order 3 different types and this was one of them. I thought that to be fair I should evaluate some other products before being sold on them. I also did not want to get caught up in a placebo effect.
This was my favorite strap of the three that I ordered. I also ordered a gel strap, and futuro knee strap. The Mueller knee strap is very simple. It feels like there is a rubber hose that is surrounded by a very soft padded form. Its strechy and simple. You can wrap it around to where it is very tight and it remains comfortable. That is why I like it the best. It does not irritate the knee or cut off circulation. To date it has not slipped on me and it works. The hose that I described above puts pressure on the patella tendon and that keeps you able to run.
This is not a fix for the problem I have, it only makes the pain bearable from what I was told. I have not had the problem with my "shin splints" since i have used any of the straps. This was the cheapest of the three and my favorite. I have no idea what sort of black magic it uses to make it work, but it is worth the $7 you will spend to try this thing. It works.

If you find your knee hurting after you jump or run buy this product. I can't express how good this works. It's not expensive either. A must buy IMO.

In sporting good stores one strap runs about $15 so this is definately a good deal. I've always worn this brand and never had a problem.

Mueller Knee Straps as Promised January 6, 2009

I was replacing much older knee straps that I use when running. I was skeptical that the Muellers would be adequate. Their cost was a fourth of other products. They do the job, are comfortable, and seem well made. A very good value.
