a tight it band is one of many causes of runners knee... so this might work for some people but make no difference wot so ever to others... to cure runners knee you have to identify the inefficiency in your own bio mechanics and put it right.... the single most effective piece of equipment for loosening tendon fibres in the legs is a foam roller
@mrmrgino1983 I agree completely. But so many people have reported instant cures with this strap on Amazon I had to review it. It also had a similar experience with it.
Just ordered one from amazon.co.uk. Your stretches helped, but as my distance increases, so does the worry that it's going to go again. Anything that helps is good. Thanks Chad from Russ in the UK.
@Davids40thbirthday Good luck Russ. It helped mine greatly. I actually don't have to wear it anymore. It's a great strap. Serves its purpose. Let me know if it helps. I’m curious.
i have patella tendonitis (pain just below the knee cap itself), which i thought was nick named runners knee?! Is runners knee a generalised condition that is related to all forms of knee pain as a result of running, or do you too have pain below the kneecap?
The only reason i ask, is because i would like to give this band ago, but biomechanically i cant see how it would benefit my patella tendon inflamation (runners knee!?)
@murdoch2486 I doubt the strap would help with your concern. Runner’s knee is pain on the outside of the knee from not having the IT band stretched enough. My other video called Runner’s knee Stretches explains this. Sorry I can’t help with your particular area.
Anyway my problem is different! By the way condromalacea patellae is also know as runners knee, but there is also another injury known as Runners knee! And your exercises are also helpful for condromalacea patella also!

I'm pretty sure you can find these at Fleet Feet stores, if you've got one near you.

Hey can you clearly tell the name of the product and for the company you are advertising? :-) Anyway I was thinking about a patellae support!

@chowdhary1992 Sounds like it is worth a try. I hope you start to feel better soon so you can get back to playing tennis if you want.
