Finally, someone that uses science/studies to answer the question. Thanks for the great analysis

VERY helpful. As with so many things, the answer to “should I or shouldn’t I?” is “it depends,” but you’ve given a great summary of the factors on which it depends. Thanks so much.

I’ve broke both ankles and sprained them more then I can remember. thank you for this information!!!

Awesome video, got straight to the point and gave proper scientific research, as well as not dragging it on. This is the definition of a perfect youtube video

Best braces my opinion is the McDavids. Great support

Thank you for this very informative video!! Thanks for doing all the research I needed and giving both sides of the argument!

Ankle brace is a good thing to use to prevent injury. Make sure you choose a shoe size that can fit the brace

The music is unnecessary

how do you explain Stephen Curry playing with two ankle braces and balling out, if they're "bad for you".

Besides the ankle brace... your hair is on point 🔥

I want to ask something.I have sprain my right ankle 3 times and my left 1,should I wear a thin brace,a thick brace or none of them?

So what if you strengthen the muscles that support the ankle just like your other muscles. You stretch to keep the ankles range of motion, and continue to use the ankle brace. Would that eliminate the only negative it has?

I sprained my ankle last thursday night. And it is swelling and bruising really bad. Is there such thing as in between grade 2 and grade 3 ankle sprains?

Hey great video man. I sprained my ankle a week ago doing jump rope and the pain has subsided significantly, although not completely gone. I was wondering if you could suggest to me if i should wear an ankle sleeve or anklet istead of an ankle binder, during my jump rope sessions.

What if I’m just wearing them for basketball games? Should I do exercises to strengthen my ankles, my ankles are always sore after games.

hey the line of logic in light of bio-mechanics is a given, however when you have wrecked ligaments that increase the likelihood of rolling, especially in team sports where chances of hitting something other than the ground; you'll have to take your chances at risking knee, hip or even back injury. new tech and especially nanotech will improve transition in braces from anatomy and shoe. -on a sidenote; I've busted both my ankles, and would probably need braces on both, however in-play I usually land on my leading foot, the right, and used a brace only on my right and did not suffer (injury); adding to that I got mindful of buckling when my ankle might be on the journey of turning; by buckling I refer to fall like a sack of potatoes. I advocate braces, and the have better fit in low-cuts, as Stephen Curry and Under Armour figured. and be sure to visit a chiropractor skilled in extremity treatment and adjustments; destorm power have excellent variations for ankle strength, mostly focus increase vertical, however just as good for rehab and prevention with your consulting physician (including chiros, physios) thanks for vid.

Sprained my right ankle a year ago off my jumper. Then i just sprained my ankle recently when I was jogging to the corner of the court for a shot. Horrible luck.

I had an ankle injury like 7 and over months ago but i recovered in the proper way with at the start ice for like a day then started exercise to regain strength. But i found that i have pain in the ankle area (the tendons in the upper ankle). But i have good knees and i strench before going on the court properly. I dont wont the ankle injury to happen again should i get an ankle brace

Sprained my ankle over 5 months ago. I can finally walk, but the pain gets pretty intense after about 10 min. My knees are already effed-up (meniscus), so I dont want to wear a brace.

If my ankle is fully healed, can I still wear an ankle brace during my bball to prevent re spraining it.... will wearing it for about 4 hours a week weaken my ankle muscles?

It's sad. I sprained my ankles most of the time. And it hits you physcologicaly , now I'm afraid to play ball or run without an ankle supporter. . There's that feeling you gonna role your ankle again, I'm starting to be dependent on my ankle supports. And it's sad. It's not comfortable at all. Wearing it all the time

Wear when you play and walk within the brace. And also stand on the rehabbed ankle by itself to strengthen the ligaments around it sometimes.

Hi, nice video man, can I ask a question? Not sure if you are still here, since the video aldy 3yrs

What if you sprained your ankle just a week ago but had acl reconstruction on the same knee 8yrs ago. Do you nonwhere an ankle brace cuz it puts that knee at risk ?

i have very weak ankles that overpronate inwards and without any support i lose balance, due to my ankles being weak i have sprained my ankles multiple times because they are so unstable. i also have flat feet and plantar fasciitis in both sides. i have read ankle braces help these problems so should i wear ankle braces or not

What type of ankle brace is best?

Hi Thanks for the info. I have neuropathy in my feet and I was wondering if angle braces Would help me with my balance when walking. Give some support in my feet. I currently walk with a can and sure would love to walk a bit without using. a cane. My job depends upon it. Even if I could walk a bit better. Thanks

SOMEONE ANSWER MY QUESTION PLSS: Is it okay to wear my ankle brace during basketball games and trainings?

Informative but the music is distracting and unnecessary.

Where did u get that warriors top 👀👀

Great videos and shoe reviews. I stopped hard on my right foot trying to save a ball inbounds jamming my ankle. A few days later I did the same thing. The second time I had to take a seat. This injury is not getting better and it's hard to bend my foot back. Any idea what I may have injured. It's not like any ankle injury I've ever had.

Thanks 😊

What about the hip?

Flexible ankle sleeves guys, and calf raises(full ROM)

Great info, but the music kinda annoying

I wish he would stop the music. Very annoying background

I have had 2 corrective ankle surgeries, 1 in each foot, in which there was a bolt inserted into each foot to prevent my feet getting flatter. This was 2 to 3 years ago and I just sprained my left ankle 4 days ago. Should I use ankle brace from now on when playing basketball? It's worth noting I have a bone spur in my left knee.

I feel a little pain in my left ankle after I do phisical activity...... Not sure if I sprained it but the pain goes away after a couple hours of wearing it I do wear an ankle sock... Or wrap, Whatever you call it every once in awhile........so should I do ankle strengthening exercises wear a brace or let it heal overtime? Or something else...?

That's why you wear a ROM ankle brace

plaster is the best

Any questions feel free to ask!

That music is so annoying. Too bad the info was good otherwise.

Why’s Klay Thompson talking about ankle braces?

I injured my knee due to the using of an ankle braces. It's good to reduce ankle sprain but they restrict the dorsi flexion And it damages the knee. Smh

After seeing Stephen Curry using the Zamst A2-DX anklets that everyone who speaks ill of the anklets will think. It reminds me of those who still believe that boot-type basketball shoes protect the ankle, what kind of basketball shoes did Stephen Curry have when he injured himself 11 times? kzfaq.info/get/bejne/oNRgpq-ZqdGmqp8.html

Is it possible to make videos without the horrible musical loops going endlessly? This one is longer than the worst, but still very irritating, in my opinion.
