How many braces do you have - I have a drawer with a bunch...and I wanted to know if I am the only one who has a crap tone of braces and actually uses them!

1 Ankle Brace
1 Hard Wrist Brace
2 Knee Braces
1 Arm Sling

Do you wear them while working out? I find it hard to move with them. I do tend to wear a knee brace while on a tred, but that is only...My ankle I should use when I workout, but it gets uncomfortable :( What do you dO?

    Ha, no, you're not alone.

    1 patella stabilizer (need to buy a second as soon as I get the money)
    1 Ace bandage
    1 knee immobilizer (I have two more in my storage room at my grandmother's house :embarassed: :ohwell: )
    1 Ankle brace
    2 Wrist braces (they help when I get nerve flare-ups in my arms)

    You have to get used to working out with things. I wear my stabilizer and Ace bandage on my knees when I run. It's awkward and uncomfortable at first, but I'd be on crutches very quickly if I didn't.

    Oh I wish i could wear some stuff like that. I have to be careful and wear most of it on the outside of my clothing to avoid allergic reactions!
