Exercise bandages

[scrumpyjackles]

i have been told by my instructor to put exercise bandages on when schooling - have bought some elasticated exercise bandages but am just thinking will i have to put gamgee underneath ? or is it best to use fleece ones ? (dont want the hassle of putting gamgee underneath every time)

I have bandages that are half fleece and half elastic

If they are elastic you need padding underneath

I agree with half elastic half fleece, not so much risk of uneven pressure.

iv just stupidly bought some elasticated ones !!! i didnt think til after i bought them oops ! i dont particularly like bandaging anyway and dont want the hassle of putting gamgee underneath everytime so i guess il put the elastic ones on ebay

just playing devils advocate here (and because I am lazy) why bandages and say not use something like the wraps that Premier Equine do?

because bandages are the cheaper option !! i had some WW brushing boots but hes sensitive and gets sore with them - will save up for some of those gorgous training wraps in summer !
