MALLEOTRAIN PLUS VS. SPORTS ANKLE SUPPORT
Here is a side-by-side video review of Bauerfeind’s Sports Ankle Support and MalleoTrain Plus ankle support, by Jiu Jitsu coach and physical therapist Dr. Tskozik:
“In the end, both these braces offer excellent stability, support and comfort. I’d say the determining factor is this: if you’re just coming back from an acute injury and you need a little bit extra stimulation and support around those tendons for increased blood flow and faster recovery go with the MalleoTrain Plus, if you’re just looking for something to offer you streamlined stability for injury prevention go with the Bauerfeind Sports Ankle Support.”
