Your Knees Will Thank You Every Time You Roll!
If you train hard, your knees take the hits. Here’s how I protect mine. (Even after years of BJJ abuse)

Hey,
Let’s be real—BJJ is tough on the knees. Takedowns, scrambles, knee-on-belly pressure… It adds up fast.
I used to just “tough it out” until the aches got annoying. So I put together a no-fluff list of the best BJJ knee pads out there—stuff that actually helps you roll longer and hurt less.
Here’s what you’ll find inside:
✅ Compression sleeves that stay in place
✅ Knee pads with real padding (no thin junk)
✅ Breathable fabric that doesn’t turn into a sweat trap
✅ Picks for injury support and daily training
✅ Options for every budget (some under $20)
If your knees ever feel beat up after class, this list could save you some pain—and maybe a few weeks off the mat.
P.S. Got a teammate still rolling in busted joints and cotton sleeves? Forward them this. They’ll thank you later.
Talk soon,
Ben
