    Guys, I've never lifted with knee wraps and I want to begin doing it. Where would I get a pair?

    from a joint health point of view is there much of a benefit from using wraps?

    Not if you're wrapping for increased poundages!

    0-25kg as a general range.

    Depends on whether you can keep your tekkers, how tight you wrap and your ability to support supermax weight.

    Not if you're going to be so snappy. Going to ask the Hodge twins instead.
