TK Knee Bands (regular) Tommy Kono Knee Band Supports Regular Size fits 130-250 lb Body Weight (sold in sets of 2) These are very nice knee supports for ANY leg workout! by Tommy Kono I never had knee problems until I gave an informal demonstration at a Boy Scout Jamboree near Dover, Pennsylvania. I performed a Split-style Snatch of 135 lb. My best Snatch at that time was 297 lb. Using the Squat-style so you would think that a measly 135 should not bother me. Well, evidently my forward knee, the right one, must have flexed a little out of alignment for it did not feel right after I gave the exhibition. I did not think anything of it and went on to Warsaw, Poland for the '59 World Weightlifting Championships. At the Championships I tried a World Record lift of 374 lb. in the Clean and Jerk. I shouldered the weight but failed the overhead portion of the lift. The very next day after spending some waking hours moving around, I tried to sit on a chair and found I could not bend my right leg enough to sit correctly. It was stiff and the knee looked swollen. From then on I had a knee problem. Because my right knee was bad I started to favor it and use my left leg more in all my movements, even transferring much of my training load to my left leg. Yes, you guessed it. I had a problem with my left knee too. I was plagued with both knees being bad going to the 1960 Rome Olympics. My once thickly muscled legs, especially right above my knees, started to shrink in size for I could not perform the full knee bends or tax them without being in pain. Sports medicine was unknown and especially in Hawaii such a thing as arthroscopic surgery was nonexistent. I suffered through 4 more years but in early 1964 I created a support for my knees that worked wonders. It kept my knees stable, warm and provided good support. I used it every time I used my legs and that meant for Olympic lifting, of course. It was like having a new pair of knees! Package Contains
