First, let me start of by saying I have absolutely no prior experience with muscle floss bands. Also, this review applies only to the high compression band. I thought I would try the high compression band first since I felt I had enough muscle mass to need it, but I have been disappointed so far. Part of the problem for me is that it applies much more compression than I thought it would, and I feel like I lose a lot of movement ability with it on. I just can't wrap it loose enough to still stick and get the compression and movement I want. I feel like trying the regular compression band would have been much better to start with, the high compression band just doesn't have the flexibility for joints that I want. However, if you needed it to compress a large muscle like your quads without covering a joint, it does well at that. 5 stars for product quality. it seems durable and well made. Just the use of the product didn't meet my expectations for what I wanted to do with it. I will definitely try the regular compression band next.
