It's a wrap! Wrapping your knees may not be the best answer

Article Abstract:

Bodybuilders or weight trainers should not depend on knee wraps if they decide to return to active training following knee injury. Such protective covering may actually delay the recovery process. These injured athletes must instead allow adequate time for recuperation before returning to competitive form.
