education is the key
Unfortunately, this type of scam has been repeated all over the world throughout the ages. I consider it a failure of society that in such modern times we allow people to be uneducated enough not to recognize the worthlessness of such a trinket.

Tricks
It's all parlor tricks. If you watch closely you can see that when they pull down they pull just a bit outwards at the last second, because the person is concentrating on the downward pull they have not time, or even feel, the tiny push off balance. When the armband is on either they pull down only or the push inwards so it is easer to balance on the leg, depending on which video. The second one is really just the same trick since you see them loose balance not loose thier strength, since all the concentration is now on balancing themselves of course their arm gives. And the last is just simple stretching, he has him not stretch once, but a few times by having him moving around, so by the final 2 the muscles are starting to stretch better. If they have you do it a 3rd time they would likely get a bit more movement even.

Look and feels cool
My friend bought me this wristband cause I was a skeptic. I've had this wristband on for about 3 days now, and I'm still a skeptic. This does not do anything special. The brain is so powerful. It may be a ring next. It feels really nice, and looks cool., but don't expect to hit the game winning shot, or be the MVP of the game because of wearing it.

Thigh Saver!!!
I ordered this for my son who works at a distribution center. He stays on his feet and is constantly on the move and frequently gets chaffed and scalded between his legs.He had it so bad recently and I found this product on Amazon and ordered it. Within two days of use he was completely over it and has not had a problem since. He keeps this in his lunch box and takes it to work with him every day. This is the best product we have found for this type of problem. Highly recommend!!!

Great for runners
Before I discovered Bodyglide, I was plagued with painful chafing whenever I went for a long run or ran in especially hot conditions. Now I just rub the Bodyglide on the problem areas before I go out for a run, and it works like a charm. I am chafe-free now following a run. It is not greasy and has never caused any spots on my clothing. Great product that does the job--worth the money.

Exceptional
I recently returned from training where I was running up and down the beach, in and out of the water, and sweating profusely in 95 degree heat. On day one, I thought I'd be ok as I have never chafed before, but I WAS WRONG. It was so bad, I thought I was going to have to go to the ER- I was even blistered up. Not only did BodyGlide help settle the pain and prevent further irritation, but using it in advance has proven to be every bit as effective as advertised.
I considered 4stars because of the slight residue it leaves, but in my opinion that is worth avoiding the "complications".
Rating :     
the best buy of the year.
for any ladies out there, summer can be a tough time. You want to wear cute little skirts - but chaffed thighs are hellish. This product changes all of that.... so much that I have made all of my friends try this. Whether you are going for a run, or out in your slinky dress and don't want to wear spanks or hose so you don't rub, this is the perfect secret weapon! This has revolutionized my summer clothes selection - I will never leave home without it!

Editorial Review :
Designed to improve patellar tracking and elevation, the Mueller® jumper's knee strap applies mild pressure on the tendon below the kneecap. The tubular insert provides uniform pressure and helps provide pain relief from Chondromalacia (irritated kneecap), Patellar Tendonitis, and Osgood-Schlatter's Disease.
Customer Review :
Big bang for the buck
This strap has helped tremendously take away the pain from my particular knee problem when running. My therapist had given me another strap, which worked as well. Mueller knee strap would work better for me because it wouldn't drift away like the other one.

it is so working!

Seem to help
I have been having serious knee pain related to my patellar tendon and had to take some time off from running. After starting up slowly I started experiencing the same pain again. I have been taking it much easier as far as the runs go in addition to wearing these braces and the pain seems to have quit for the most part. I would recommend trying them out.

Muellers Knee Strap
The seller was timely and great in delivery of the knee strap. I would buy here again.
Rating :     
Fantastic product
I had knee surgery about 3 years ago for a torn meniscus and strained ACL and MCL. Whenever playing basketball, varying points in my leg and knee would hurt in the days after. And I would feel a lack of jumping ability when jumping off the repaired leg. Now that I use the knee strap, my legs don't feel pained at all after playing basketball or running. It could be a placebo effect, but I also feel more explosion when jumping and I can play much longer without any pain at all. I would certainly recommend this to anyone with knee and leg pain. For $6, it's worth a try at least.

Looks neat, priced right but useless.
I admit it I knew better. Just because all the multi-millionaires playing baseball wear these certainly doesn't prove they have any medicinal value. However if you want to wear one to look cool this is a pretty good price. For us bigger folks this one comes larger than most.

This item was returned and i am still waiting for my money to be put back in my account
this item did not meet my expectations for many reasons but the most important one is the fact that the description is misleading as it does not do what was talked about...

Works well
This product does exactly what I wanted it to do. Very satisfied. Would like it to be a little bigger to cover the entire stomach. But overall it does what it said it would do.
Rating :    
This item is too soft - doesn't do anything at all.
OK, wasn't expecting miracles, but would like SOMETHING from the product. I'm returning mine as it doesn't do ANYTHING at all. Not even good for back support.

Arrived on time, fits welll.
This product arrived on time (within three days of ordering it), and it fits well. Very comfortable when being worn. Will take some time to see if it helps back problems.

Question : What are some different paths in Sports Medicine?
What are some different career fields within sports medicine?How many years of college do those paths take?What does the salary and job perspectives look like?
Answer:
physical therapist, you could work directly with national teams and player injurys , its 6yrs of school your bachelors and masters but some schools have accelorated programs where you can get both in 5yrs. It is a lot of biology and science related courses. Just being a physical therapist there are a lot of job opportunities, but to work for sport leagues im sure there going to want some experience, you cant get that type of job right out of college. However most of the people you meet while being a physical therapist anywhere are going to have sports injurys.

Question : How to become a sports medicine physician?
I'll be heading off to college this fall (freshman) and am really interested in becoming a sports medicine physician after I graduate. But I'm really confused on how I become one and what steps I have to take to get there.Like what kind of courses should I take in college, what should I major in, do I have to go to a medical school after like doctors do, and any other requirements that I would need to become a sports medicine physician.Your help is greatly appreciated thank you
Answer:
You have to take all of the prereq's for the medical school you are interested in. Generally, 8 hours of biology, 18 hours of chemistry (organic and inorganic), 8 hours of physics, 6 hours english, and a set amount of electives. As you can see, the science required is extensive, so it's easiest to major in biology. Also, most med school classes are biology...so it's best to "know the language" by majoring in it. Halfway through college, you need to take the MCAT and score high. Your GPA needs to be as close to a 4.0 as possible to stay competitive. Your last year of college (the June before) is when you apply online. First, you do a general application through AMCAS or AACOM (MD or DO programs) and then the schools send you secondary applications. Its an expensive process.Prepare for your med school interviews, and do well. Be able to account for any C's you made, bad semesters, lack of clinical experience, etc.Once in med school, it is 4 years. 2 years of classwork, 2 years rotations. Upon graduating, you will pick your residency program (or match to it, rather). This is where you will enter sports medicine. Now, sports medicine isn't actually a training program per say. You really enter orthopedics, and recieve a special certification for sports medicine. Many schools that offer the orthopedics residency have the certification for sports medicine. Your residency is up to 7 years. But, you are paid about $45,000 for it.

Question : what subjects are needed in order to be a sports medicine doctor?
i want to be a sports medicine doctor..i want to know what are the subjects are needed to be a sports medicine doc and what degrees do i have to earn? and where are the best colleges for sports medicine?i need to have a bachlors degree in what?
Answer:
You shouldn't even be thinking seriously about a specialty until you're in your last two years of medical school. You need to have a bachelors degree, a medical degree, and then spend x amount of years doing a residency in sports medicine.A bachelors degree in ANYTHING. Just make sure that you get the prerequisites completed (biology, chemistry, physics, organic chemistry, calculus, english) and take the MCAT.

Question : What should I do for my Sports Medicine article?
I am in sports medicine for my school and part of the class is that i have to write an article about something related to sports medicine. I can't think of anything to do. This time around, we do not have a topic to go off of so anything would work. The audience that this would be going to is the whole school.
Answer:
How about knee replacements (the surgical procedure)?The pros and cons of steroid use: the reasons why it's a bad idea for young athletes in particular.Drug testing at the Olympics - who got caught using forbidden drugs and why. Or - chromosome (gender) testing at the Olympics. (Who's genotypically male and female - and who's allowed to compete.)Finally, you could write abut blood doping (with the hormone erythropoietin).
