Do these offer good support for doing crossfit? (Weight lifting etc)

I agree with the other 2 responses. Plus, I have issue with the top of it rolling down constantly and not staying in place.

"good support"? more like good compression and good at keeping alignment. But as a true support, not so sure, you'd probably want something more sturdy/velcro action. But if you've got a relatively healthy knee and want a feel good safeguard, I'd say this would do the job. If you're coming back from injury or have knee pain or weakness, then you'll probably want something more substantial. In my unprofessional opinion ;)

I use them for strength training on my squat/dead days and they work great. They are a level 1, so it's gives light support, but it's mainly for mild compression and joint warmth to help with blood flow. I don't have any joint issues though, so these level 1 sleeves work for me.

I occasionally use these to work out. They are decent if you want to use them for weight lifting or something else where you aren't moving very fast. I run in them occasionally but they do fall out a lot once I start to sweat.

I wouldn't use these for those types of yoga poses. I use them for lunges during my crossfit workouts, but even in that setting they're a little constrictive. They do, however, really protect my knees.

Not necessarily, if you find a good fit. The over the ear accessory will help, but I found it too rigid and uncomfortable to use for long. You should be okay while weight lifting, but I wouldn't recommend them for running.

I'm sure you could use them for that, but they'really padded for lifting weights. Usually when I'm not lifting I take them off just to get air to my hands but they are very comfortable for most any workouts. Just keep in mind all of the padding technology is meant for weight lifting.

It depends on your shoes. I have found that they are too tight on my weightlifting shoes(very flat shoes, I am referring to the New Balance mx20v3.) So I dont use them. But they are fine on my asics crosstrainers.(larger shoes gel 180 TR) I also like to keep my feet tight on my shoes so depends on your fit. Hope it helps

I guess you could but they're specifically for heavy lifting in the weight room I would suggest getting some wrist wraps for boxing.

I agree with Keith. I'm using them right now, these things are in my ears all the time. I'm not sure they'd be great for running, unless they were under a shirt, but for lifting they're fine. If you're up for the investment, I'd recommend these to anybody and everybody.

You can use these to lift but I wouldn't recommend it. The palms aren't designed for gripping the gnarled steel of barbells/dumbells and will tear to shreds. I know first hand because I used an old pair for this purpose and within a couple weeks they were unusable as I had completely torn off the rubber support on the palms.

These work especially well for assisted pull-ups and dips. I've used them for resistance exercises as well; push-ups, deadlifts etc. well worth the purchase as far as I'm concerned...

Yes they provide great coverage. That was my concern also because I squat, burpees, etc and don't want half my but showing!!! Love them and u can't see through them.

They are not ideal for heavy dead lifts. They will last until you can't stand the smell of the sweat that's soaked in and are great for everything other than heavy Deadlifts. Get something more heavy duty for Deadlifts

I think they'd help provide support and stability while playing tennis. They are great for lifting. I wear mine for lifting and some of my plyo and conditioning work. I don't typically wear them for long distance running. Given your recent surgery and the quick changes in direction involved with playing tennis I think these would be beneficial to you.

It's good for overall added support, in no way is my movement compromised; I can still obtain my full range of motion and it doesn't move at all if you get the right size. Really helps my lifts and it's definitely help me gain strength

I mainly use them on an elliptical. I also use them while lifting. I've yet to have any issues of movement. They stay in place very well.

I would agree with the other answer. These are great and I have used them for leg press and squating. Squat by holding the handles at shoulders and step on band. Leg press. Lay on back, hold handles shoulder height and push band woth feet.

I lift pretty heavy for my weight and sweat profusely. They work well for all my lifting and do not get soaked during my 2 hr lifting/cardio cycle. The wrist support helps a lot for the heavier lifts. Hope this helps.
