I’m a -74kg powerlifter like you and i was wondering what are your knee, calf and lower quad measurements in cm? I have 37 cm knee, 35 cm calf and 45 cm lower quad, the site suggests me XL, while i have XS (very very tight) with the sbd, is it possible?
Thank you!! Hopefully you can get them on and off easily! I made a part 2 review for these sleeves to help give some insight on what I believe is the easiest way to wear them in
Great video! I have also received mine just a few days ago, but unfortunately with a minor issue with the glue not sticking on the inside of one of the pair. Have you also experienced this with your previous size S pair?
my measurements are: knee 15.4 inch, quad 20 inch, calf 16.9 inch. Should I take 2XL so all the measurements would fit in the 2XL category (knee low-end; calf and quad high-end), or take XL where only knee fits the category of XL? with SBD I've always worn size M with the same leg measurements.
If I were to get another sleeve I would’ve ended up getting a large instead of a medium and I’ve tried the small + medium now. The medium still cuts my blood circulation to my feet after a few sets of squat
Turns out my calves are too big, first got XL then went for 2XL and they still wouldn’t even go past my calves. Hoping to be able to return and get a bigger size 🥲 (my calves are around 19 inches so im thinking if i should try 3xl or 4xl)
I got a 2xl today and they're slipping down 😂 did a squat and the front of the sleeves arent even conpressed to my legs. Sent back already . Going for large instead as theyll break in
@@jaredjamesfit yeah I did. Just got unfortunate. I'm usually an L in sbd so I might just stay at that but I'm asking around whilst the return is being done to see if I can try on a pair 😂
@@stevewalsh39 definitely try them on first! I’m surprised the size chart wasn’t accurate/looser than what you expected. Everyone I know has the opposite problem
Hey man, whats your knee joint and calf size? I’ve been using S and M og sbd sleeves, I am looking forward to get some a7 with 14 1/2 inches knees and calves, would you suggest going for M or L rigor mortis?
If you are between sizes I’d say you have two choices: 1. Go with the smaller size for a super tight uncomfortable fit (your feet will fall asleep at the beginning) but after a couple months they should stretch out. You have to have a lot of patience & not care about squatting with no feeling in the feet. OR 2. Go the bigger size up if you want a comfortable fit that is still tight/snug. My personal opinion: I was between sizes (M-L) and got a medium but I wish I got a large. I’ve had to stretched my sleeves out on 2L bottles and they are still tight.
hey man quick question my sizing is 14inches for my knees, 19inches for my quads, and 13.5inches for my calf’s. idk what size i should get since my leg sizing varies
I also ordered them size 2XL (My measurements - knee 41cm, calf 43-44cm, quad 54cm) everything else was ok besides calves, they we're so tight that I almost couldn't get them off, literally took me almost 20 minutes to get them both off, so I would recommend going by calve size. I sent them back and just ordered myself 3XL hopefully they fit better lol
@@mute5634 Hey, got 3xl's and they were still so tight that I lost my blood circulation, ended up getting 5xl's lol but calve was too big this time, now I'm waiting for 4xls hopefully they fit haha. I would say 2 and 3 xls are the same basically at least for me.
For me I prioritize the knee and calve size more than the quad size. The knee and calve size is where you’ll have to slide the sleeves on and off first. The quad part of the sleeve is larger & will break in easier + it stretches more.
