For those of you who don’t know; Sportsmans Warehouse is South Africa’s leading sport retail outlet, offering a wide variety of products and services!

 There certainly is nothing worse than an injury due to sports activity! The way in which you can support this injury and allowing you to continue your activities is best achieved through the application of Sports tape from Sportsmans Warehouse. The Sportsmans Warehouse website outlines how athletes should make use of their number of sports tape products. Flexible sports tape is a cotton tape which is mesh-woven to stretch up to 140% of its original length! Thus it comfortably supports injured muscles, ligaments and tendons, reducing the risk of further injury and allowing the tissues to heal naturally. Sports tape is totally water-resistant and be worn in the shower or pool and can be left in place for 3 – 5 days per application.

 Their website also hosts a range of guidelines on how best to apply the tape. These points included: “Apply the tape directly over the site of the pain. The greater the stretch, the greater the support. If the muscle, joint or tendon needs increased stability or support, increase the degree of stretch.”
