SBD Elbow Sleeves: Support and Warmth for Heavy Pressing (Without Losing ROM)
SBD Elbow Sleeves are built for lifters who want their elbows to feel stable, warm, and supported during heavy training, especially benching and pressing, without turning the joint into a cast.
They combine SBD’s premium neoprene with a smart two-panel design: a thinner interior panel that allows the elbow to flex naturally, and a thicker exterior panel that provides firm compression and joint support where you need it most. The result is a sleeve that supports hard training while still letting you move freely through full range of motion.
Lifters consistently choose these sleeves for:
- Keeping elbows warm during long sessions
- Extra support when benching and pressing
- Reducing irritation and discomfort without feeling restrictive
- A secure fit that stays in place set after set
Who These Are For
- Lifters who want support + warmth for bench, overhead pressing, and heavy upper-body training
- Athletes who need added joint confidence while keeping full range of motion
- Anyone whose elbows get cranky during high-volume pressing or heavy training cycles
- Lifters who prefer a sleeve that feels supportive without being overly restrictive
Who These Are Not For
- If you want a rigid “cast-like” feel that strongly limits elbow movement
- If you’re looking for medical treatment or injury-specific bracing (these are training sleeves, not a medical device)
- If you prefer a very light, minimal sleeve with little compression
Features
- Sold as a pair
-
Dual-panel construction: 5mm interior panel for freedom of movement + 7mm exterior panel for maximum joint support
- Reinforced seam construction for long-term durability
- Antimicrobial treatment to reduce odour buildup
- Manufactured in Great Britain
Sizing Tip
If you’re between sizes: size down for more compression/support, or size up if you mainly want warmth and comfort.
Product Care Information
We recommend hand washing your elbow sleeves with water or a mild detergent (or a specialist neoprene/wetsuit detergent), then allow the sleeves to air dry standing up.
The spin cycle of a washing machine can damage the sleeve, as the elbow sleeves become quite bulky when wet and can potentially get caught up or damaged by wringing. High heat from a washing machine or a dryer will degrade the rubber in the sleeves (potentially causing shrinkage or brittleness).
