Hey guys. Does it make sense to overload the hips during exercies by reducing quad invovlment via knee wraps??
You’re asking if it makes sense to use knee wraps I guess? Use whatever your fed allows.
for training purposes…
I prefer to squat with knee wraps, when I don’t my knees get really achy. For myself it does not feel safe but that is just me. Right now i have a legiment problem with my knee from going really heavy on some leg press, fortunitly i had the knee wraps, idk what would have happened.
but im trying to find out…like how wearing a slingshot for bench press relies more on tris…will wearing knee wraps make you use more glutes?
Train how you compete.
Are you strong enough to worry about the 0.00038432892% difference a slight training tweak will cause?
ok than… no knee wraps…

i’d like to disagree with this, you can squat an additional 50+ pounds wrapped vs no wraps which may or may not be a good way to overload based on your program.
