Morning all!! Just completed 25 min run - was tougher this morning 😐 - one of my knees was giving me gyp and I bought 2 knee supports and wore them for the first time today- felt like they were cutting off the circulation 😂- any tips on sore knees and knee support?? Still feel like I’ve achieved a lot !!

Well done on getting through the run, can't really help on the sore knees but I think I would feel very restricted if I was wearing supports, try keeping them on when you aren't running, maybe that will help?
Well done on running 25 mins especially in this heat! I sometimes wear a knee support on one knee - alternate as both can be niggly. Perhaps you have it too tight? I can adjust mine with the Velcro. I did read that knee pain can be due to thigh muscles not being strong enough so I’ve been doing squats etc to try & strengthen thighs & take pressure of knees. 🙂
Exercise.....try these....many folk have found them very useful.

If you need support for your knees... it may be an idea to get them checked out?
If there is pain when running... it is a really good idea to see what is going on
