compression strap? the ones tmac wears on his calves

Thu Nov 24, 2005 5:37 am

so, what do you call them? and where can i get them here in vancouver?
is there like a specialty shop that sells them here? thanks

A completely useless post:
why exactly do you need it? Are you like ten years old and you want to wear the band only because one particular big black man is wearing it? So you can be cool and that your little friends can respect you? Would you suck toads if T-Mac did it?

Maybe he needs them for his legs.

do they have a purpose at all?

i know AI uses that sleeve to keep his shooting arm warm, but what for do you have one on your calf?

Thu Nov 24, 2005 6:53 am

I wear one cause I always have calf cramps and it compresses my calves. Physcian/Docter say just keep it on incase.

Thu Nov 24, 2005 7:02 am

Well, Vank, if he's trying to be cool, at least we should help him to look cool.

this is why i need them

i dont need it to look cool since i really dont think it will look cool on me

i just need it coz i dont wanna play with a f**ked up calf. its either that or i rest my calf couple of days b4 i play ball.

i dont want that. i want to be able to work my calves out every other day...

Why not? I thought you didn't care if you didn't look "cool"? Now all of a sudden you change your mind?

Thu Nov 24, 2005 7:48 am

lol. its not a matter of if it works or not man, its a matter of how well it works. the underarmour i have keeps me warm during cold and reverse. but if its just cause tmac is wearing it and u are wanting to wear it, then haha.

edit: i only said tmacs, coz i didnt know what it was called, so i used him as a point of reference...


again. i dont like wearing too much in basketball. (meaning if i can wear just my shoes, socks, shorts, underwear and shirt/jersey then ill take that)

i just need it for my right calf coz for some reason, my right one cramps up and my jumping one (left) doesnt.. weak...

Naw man you just dumb. Dont buy if you dont know what its used for. Compression shorts are for under yur damn shorts.

Thats what most of the NBA Players wear.

Thu Nov 24, 2005 8:24 am

Yup, they are used in MANY sports.
They keep your testicles from dangling too much, too! :mrgreen:

EDIT: Sorry for the image everyone! :lol:

im dumb? im the one asking for the calf compression and people has been either telling me to get the shorts or the one kobe is wearing (tights)

wtf is wrong with you ppl

I SAID CALF/CALVES
NOT BALLS!

edit: i said this "so... the shorts will help my calves?!?!? W T F" sarcastically!!!!!

Thu Nov 24, 2005 8:35 am

They prolly at a special sports store. Between $30-50. Hopefully you buying this cause of aches or something, not just being cool. I hate them fruits who wear the AI Long Arm band in my league.

Thu Nov 24, 2005 8:48 am

chicochu,

I still highly doubt you actually have to have them. If you want to be a tool and wear them because they look cool then so be it. If you don't want to admit it then so be it. But you would think you know what it is if you really needed to use it. Maybe talk to your doctor or something about what you could do, but honestly...what the hell is wrong with you? Calling me a dumbass yet you type like a 3 year old. Are your fingers too fat where you can't type one letter at a time?

Thu Nov 24, 2005 9:00 am

:roll:

i guess i have to go to a doctor and get this checked first just to make sure then. i just dont like going to doctors because sometimes they just dont care. haha. they always say 'just give it some time and rest it, ice it..'

Thu Nov 24, 2005 9:25 am

Just stop already. God, you people just keep going, and going, and going, and going. What is this, an Energizer commercial?

Google your damn compression/calves tights, Google knows all. We are all inbred homophobic incestual born pigs, don't ask us questions again chopsuey.

Well, I assume you must have something wrong with your calf or something because I never have that problem whenever I play. Maybe I'm not cool enough to have calf problems.
