Yeah its probabaly for support, I'm not sure but i heard from a tennis announcer that Rafa uses those support to feel more confident or safe because of his previous injuries concerning his knees. A lot of basketball players uses that kind of support. I used it once its like a bandage that doesn't need a tape to fasten you just roll it over.

Yup. Support para hindi magasgas nung laylayan ng mahabang shorts yung bandang tuhod nya. hehe

I reality those things do help pag medyo masakit yung tuhod, I've tried it.

If you are puzzled by Nadal's tapes below the knees, what about this:



That's Kerri Walsh of the Olympic gold-winning US Beach Volleyball team in Beijing. Do some tennis players use this, say for frozen shoulders?

Jankovic wears something like this on her calf muscle area. Although the one she's using is transparent, slightly opaque in color.

yung bandage po is for support ng knee cap. Pag tumatakbo po kasi si Vamos Rafa, bumababa po yung knee cap. Pinipigilan po nya pagbaba ng knee cap para maiwasan ang PFPS.

What is Patella Femoral Pain Syndrome?

PFPS is a condition of the kneecap characterized by a rough or soft spot on its cartilage surface. In the past, it has been called chondromalacia patella or runner's knee.

What are the symptoms?

It causes pain, giving way, stiffness and a feeling of catching or grinding. Going up and down stairs is a bit difficult, and sitting with your knees bent, or squatting, is very uncomfortable. It makes the knee "give out," grind, or pop loudly.

Who gets it?

Many people may have PFPS, but only about 15 percent have a long-lasting pain or disability because of it – a fact not clearly understood by the medical profession. Over-activity, excess weight, and injury sometimes initiate the symptoms. This condition is often seen in female adolescents, manual laborers and athletes.

it's for support yata.

Anyway, he wears it even during practice.  When he takes it off, iba na kulay nung balat niya under the tapes.

This is Kinesiotape. The description is given as: "Kinesiotaping gives support and stability to your joints and muscles without affecting circulation and range of motion. It structurally lifts the skin and allows the flow of body fluids under the application area, reducing edema, inflammation, and discomfort."
