Protone voodoo floss band for mobility/muscle compression/recovery band

Hunting around on youtube for remedial exercises for my elbow after overdoing it in the gym, I came across a number of videos regarding voodoo tape. Have to say i was very sceptical. It's actually proven to be a great help. The product itself seems great quality and does the job perfectly.

Good quality product.

I like the product. I bought it on a recommendation from a colleague as my knee has been given me problems. This appears to be helping to reduce the pain I get. The only thing I don't like is when you have to wrap around the leg. I am sure I will find a quicker way. Other than that Supplier was on time and product is good quality.

Quality product! Ive put this band through its paces over the years and it’s still going strong. Very durable and I couldn’t recommend enough! Does exactly what you need it to.

Just to make it clear, you only get one band, you have to chose which one you want. The black one is thinner than the red one and therefore offers less resistance.I've heard of some people using the black one for their arms and red one for their legs, thinking the red will be too strong for their arms. Personally I disagree. I just use the red one for everything but that is due to my build - I am a powerlifter and weigh 103kg at 181cm. You will have to make an educated guess as to which is best for your build.These are obviously great for flossing your muscle, however I have also used them for joint problems with a lot of success. I get tendinitis in my elbows which flairs up with a lot of volume training. A day after my training (I think it's too much stress to use straight after training) I wrap my elbows tight and move the joint until my fingers go numb then unwrap. I find this has alleviated my tendinitis quite significantly.I have also used the same method in rehabilitating a minor ACL tear. I've never had an injury like that before, so I can't speak to the effectiveness of the method, but I will say that it has healed in less time than I had expected - it definitely didn't make anything worse.

It's too thick and not elastic enough. I want to use for my elbow (therefore I need to be able to do one-handed) and the band is so thick / unstretchy that it takes a third of the roll just to start being able to roll tight.

I’ve tried a few floss bands and they all do the job but most are ‘slippy’ they often unravel in use but this one doesn’t, it sticks.

I came across voodoo floss in the book “How to become a supple leopard”. I had a number of resistance bands from previous physio visits so used them and they were ok, but I thought it might be worth trying a proper voodoo floss band. The protone band is excellent and I have found it is so much better. As an example I’ve had discomfort in the foot and ankle, after wrapping using the voodoo band, it honestly feels like I have a brand new foot. Really good. I would highly recommend.
