Just because my body is well past its prime, doesn’t mean I’m going to stop doing what I love. After years of slamming into concrete (read: skateboarding) my body gives me constant reminders that I’m no longer an invincible teenager. Gone are the days of no stretching before or after doing something active, or skating until sundown and then doing it all over again the next day. Without my 30-minute stretching routine, my legs will absolutely scream afterwards.
As my whole body struggles to keep up with my unrealistic expectations, injuries (thankfully fairly minor) have cropped up, leading to multiple rolled ankles, tweaked fingers, and most recently, a nagging knee issue that I’ve yet to actually get diagnosed by a doctor. Instead, I’ve turned to the best quick fix I could find: Old Bones Therapy’s compression knee brace.
