I put this thing on pretty tight for about 4 hours and I immediately experienced a relief of pain. I don't know this thing works, I guess it hits a pressure point or something, but it gave me Immediate relief. It is kind of uncomforatable but well worth it to me.

MARSHALL Thu, 18 Feb 2010 10:11:22 +0000 http://tenniselbowsurgery.net/mueller-hg80-tennis-elbow-brace-black-1-count-box/#comment-80 I bought two of these straps to protect my elbows during bodyweight exercises like push-ups and pull-ups. I have had problems with tennis elbow in the past and have used a strap made by Hely & Weber (Mattstrap). The Mattstrap is made of neoprene, so it expands as your forearms expand during resistance exercise. These Mueller straps, however, are rigid and do not expand. This has the effect of compressing against your entire forearm. Also, the pad is very thin compared to the Mattstrap. I am returning the Mueller straps even though I'll have to absorb all shipping costs and pay a 20% restocking fee. They are useless for what I need them for. Maybe they work for activities like tennis; I don't know. Honestly, I am baffled by the high ratings they have received here. My advice is to get the Mattstrap tennis elbow strap instead. I found them through a google search and have already ordered two of them to replace these useless straps by Mueller.

Adams Thu, 18 Feb 2010 05:47:44 +0000 http://tenniselbowsurgery.net/mueller-hg80-tennis-elbow-brace-black-1-count-box/#comment-78 I have tendonitis in my right elbow, and was looking for something more comfortable and less "dorky" than the cheapo "tennis elbow" straps you can buy from Walgreens or the sporting goods section at WalMart. I found this strap on Amazon, and have been very pleased with it. It has held up well, and is very easy to adjust. Once on, it is comfortable and you don't have to keep adjusting it. It also does not slide down or cut off your circulation. It is easy to adjust if necessary, and has a thick "gel-like" pad inside that presses against the outer elbow in just the right spot without constricting movement. The band has a very "sporty" look, and comes with a small mesh bag so the velcro does not get hooked onto your workout clothing inside your gym bag. <br /> <br />Update: In the more than year I have used it, it has supported my elbow well during weight-lifting sessions. In fact, I don't like to lift without it because I don't have the support. If necessary, I would purchase this item again, and definitely recommend it for anyone who has elbow support issues while lifting weights or playing tennis. <br /> <br />Update 01/25/10: <br />After nearly a year and a half of use, including several wash cycles, this product has held up extremely well. For anyone who struggles with the effects of "tennis elbow", this is one of the most comfortable (and "sporty") bands I have used, and I stand by my recommendation.
