I do a lot of heavy lifting and my knees recently started bothering me. Typical issues of soreness and occasional popping. This is the first time I've expereinced even though I've been lifting for a few years now; although I've been meeting PRs lately so I'm sure that's whats doing it. Anyways I'm taking a little break from heavy weights. I'm still training thought so I'm looking for something that works well for that purpose. I was looking at the copper infused ones but I'm not sure if it's worth it or if there's better options. Tons of different ones out there so any help narrowing it down would be great! Cost is a factor as well. Thanks!

Rehband or SBD are pretty much the top choices.0

Slingshot just came out with a set almost identical to Rehband but cheaper.

I got a set of McDavis Knee Sleeves and I am happy with them. Especially for the price. They are not as thick as the other ones but I was just looking for something to provide a little support and warmth.0 -
Rehband is good but I also use kinetic taping so its got some support but more true range of motion. It has been used by may universities as well as pro athletes. I have used for knee shoulder and arch remember you may also need to look at anti inflammatory for a few days after doing PR0

Hyperforce knee sleeves are a far better economical choice.0

I have this guy: http://www.braceshop.com/mueller-neoprene-knee-sleeve.htm?origin=pla&unique_id=424&gdftrk=gdfV28018_a_7c2568_a_7c10961_a_7c28528&gclid=CjwKEAiAoJmlBRCxjKeizPHVs1ESJAC6cxjU8e69PHW64r59rbRLSugXCpUZbRljWw3t7lfDRtxGpxoCeSrw_wcB
I can only compare it to wrapping with a bandage, and it's not as comfortable/supportive as that but is pretty close. I've had mine for probably 10 years now? It goes in the washer, gets used multiple times per week, it's held up like a champ.0 -
