Proworks 5 Metre Roll of Kinesiology Sports Tape
Regardless of your level of experience, this fantastic kinesiology sports tape from Proworks is a must-have purchase – and the perfect exercise accessory, whether you’re playing sports, visiting the gym or going out on a run!
Provides Unmatched Support for Muscles and Ligaments
‘Why’, you may be asking? Because it provides an unmatched level of support for your muscles and ligaments! If you are going out on a run, for example, you can create a support brace for your knees and ankles, resulting in a smoother, easier running experience! If you are weightlifting, you can create similar support braces for your back, neck, arms or shoulders in order to reduce strain and prevent injury. And if you’re suffering from a sports injury, you can use the tape to aid your physiotherapy, supporting the affected area and speeding up recovery!
Easy to Use and Versatile
It couldn’t be easier to use the kinesiology tape, either. The tape can be cut into any shape you desire, making it an extremely versatile tool! With a little bit of practice it is entirely possible to create complex slings from the tape – allowing you to tailor the level of support you are receiving to your own personal needs!
Breathable Hypoallergenic Fabric for Maximum Comfort
The soft, breathable hypoallergenic fabric that the kinesiology tape is made of means it is gentle on the skin, ensuring an unparalleled level of comfort in spite of the exceptional support it provides. Providing unparalleled comfort and support in a cheap and easy-to-use package, the Proworks kinesiology tape is an ideal accessory for the beginner and the expert alike.

I have sudden serious collapse of my knee ( surgery waiting list very long) the tape gives excellent support making walking less painful. Ask a physio to show you how to use the tape for maximum support.
Following knee surgery last year and being told about arthritis I purchased this tape, have since bought it again and again. Works exactly how it is meant to. Didn’t think it would but so glad I bought it! Highly recommended
Very good adhesive quality, easy to use and aids pai
Good product, most certainly helps with what it was designed for, highly recommended.
When it comes to stretching and sticking, the tape is great. I cannot fully evaluate its ‘healing’ and pain relief properties but once I put it on, it stays for a couple of days without a problem. Perhaps a specialists application will make it more useful but I did follow the instructions.
It works for me, I have a broken shoulder which has metal plates fitted. tape supports the soft tissue in upper arm.
I have struggled for a long now with worn rota cuff in both shoulders, neck and back pain beyond belief. This tape is amazing, easy to cut, easy to apply and extremely stretchy. First day of being pain free. Life saver.
It worked for me but the physio was happy with it which is probably better than anything I can say!
This stuff is brilliant. Jump on utube plenty of videos on there to show how to use . Probably the only relief I got from planta facitis highly recommend
Nice range of colours but a bit stretcher than other brands I’ve used. Did a reasonable job of holding my arm joint in place if I used extra strips.
This is the best tape I’ve used in years, really good to help muscles recover & fixes any muscle strains & pulls. I’ve tried a few different brands but this is the best by far.
But after it healed, I still had a bunch left over so used it to support my boobs, and it worked a charm under strappy dresses! My only issue was getting it off, but olive oil did the trick. It’s very strong and breathable bandage-like material.
Really like this blue tape easy to use does help I ordered the pink I don’t know why but pink dosnt stick very well it gets wet comes straight off the blue still stays o
I’m using 2nd roll and very happy with a tape! No issues – stays on and provide excellent support for my posterior tibialis tendon and allows me to continue running gently.
Not a great deal I can review on the tape other than it sticks well, stayed on all day and done what it needed to do. Which was support my knee. Instructions on where to put it for the best support would have been handy, but I just ended up getting the info I needed off of you tube.
I really struggle with this stuff.
My physio does an amazing job of strapping me up but I just can’t work it out! Even when I try they just unpeel so easily
However, I KNOW this is purely user error because when my physio does it I SWEAR by these!! They are so brilliant for holding joints in place and replacing the muscles to give them a break!!
Fantastic, used this to tape my boobs for a dress which I wore to a wedding. The tape stayed in place all day and night without giving.
Can’t complain. Great adhesive on the skin. Very supportive, but maybe not so easy to remove . I will keep buying this as it does the job that is states! Live the colour range too.
Used this as I had a football injury, it started off well and stayed stuck, but this changed after 3 hours. I had high hopes for this, but going to try again to see if I had them stuck in the wrong place. Lovely pattern though
Bought because my husband has tennis elbow through his work. We googled how to apply and it is helping along with icing the area. Stays on for a few days at a time
Got the tape to secure my dexcom. The pic is day 8 out of 10 and it still sticking strong. That’s after working all day and having long baths after. Stills stick after getting sweated on and wet for a while.
So far happy with this product but still a bit early to see if it will work for my metatarsal issue
The tape is great and is definitely helping me run and cycle as I return from a knee injury. It is thinner than tapes I have tried in the past so took some getting used to with how much to use and how tight to apply the tape, but now works just as well as any other.
I used this tape to support Achilles tendonitis. It takes a while to get used to applying and it can be a bit fiddly. However it does help recovery.
I use this tape for patella tendonitis and it works perfectly.
Stretch and adhesion are good.
My only complaint is that it isn’t possible to tear the tape and it’s a little too tough for scissors so I have to use a sharp knife to cut the strips, other than this I would highly recommend.
It’s okay. Adhesion could be better but it does the trick
Not sure how great for its actual purpose but amazing for taping back of my heel to break in my new Doc Martens
This did the job and is giving me the support I need to stay out there. The adhesion was good and the stretch is what you would expect it to be
Does what it should, good adhesion and not painful to remove
Great product.. I use it mainly for longer runs (7mile +) and I feel it gives great support to my shin and calf muscles.. only once started to unstick – towards end of half marathon on a hot day so can’t fault its durability!! Defo, and have recommended..
My husband injured his archilles tendon, and was getting severe pain around this area. He was referred to physio and is waiting for the appointment. Our neighbour recommended he try this tape while waiting for his appointment.
It is very easy to use (did follow a YouTube video for tips on how to apply), it sticks well and lasts.
The difference after applying it was amazing, the pain had gone and he was able to go to work where he is on his feet 8 hours a day. Will be definitely buying more.
The one thing that lets this product down is the difficulty of removing the backing paper from the tape.
I like this tape because I’ve got oily skin and the others I’ve used before don’t stick for long or very well. This stuff sticks very well and keeps strong while it’s on. I bought camo style and it’s rather cool. It’s easy to apply and remove. Great value for money I’d say.
The tape was very easy to apply and lasted 5 days without any loss of adhesive. My ankle feels very supported.
I’ve bought this tape before and found it really good. Stupidly went for a cheaper alternative when it ran out but was no where near as good so ordered more of this. It’s great! Good stretch, stays stuck down for days on end. Would highly recommend
I’ve used a lot of different kinesiology tapes. Usually I buy the pre measured strips as I like the ease on not needing scissors etc, This one I have on my ankle which gets a lot of wear with movement clothing and showering. Two days later it was still in place! I needed to change and felt it would have stayed on placed longer had I needed to. It’s a nice bright orange and I am impressed with the quality and price. Will buy again.
Didn’t cause any irritation while wearing, lasted about 3 days before it started to peel away at the edges.
Purchased to try taping my wrist area because of carpal tunnel. Easy to use tape, sticks and cuts well. Recommend taking it off in the bath or shower as it comes of easier. Whether or not the taping actually helps remains to be seen, but the tape itself is perfect for the job and good quality.
This stuff is great but my god removing it is torture!!
Ok so it’s kinesiotape and it works as that but I’ve also used it for many other weird and wonderful things.
Hand grip on an elderly relatives walker.
Chain guard on a bike (wrap on frame)
Anti slip for a squat slant board
Wrapped a friends vintage car steering wheel as it was very grainy.
Lots of craft uses too.
Always have a couple of rolls in the cupboard.
I have plantar fascitis and over the years I have tried almost every tape possible. This tape is without a doubt the best you can buy. Price wise you cannot beat it. It is one long tape so you can cut just what you need. It sticks to your feet through thick and thin and the support it gives is spot on. I’ve been in tears with the pain in my feet and this is a godsend.
As for value, I think the price is worth it. I bought the tape in black and this looks very discrete under my black leggings.
You can’t peel this tape off normally, you need to shower to loosen it and do it carefully. Otherwise it HURTS, so no peeling off like a plaster it’s more like a saniderm peel.
WARNING: as shown in my photos, I left this tape over night (I was sooo tired and couldn’t be bothered to go through the peeling off process) and it caused my leg to blister. This was actually very painful for what is essentially a little blister. Now I’m too scared to use the tape, but to be fair- it’s never ever happened when I’ve worn it for say 6-12 hours in a day. It was that over night bit where I felt it go hot and itchy and then burnnnnnn.
Advised to use tape on knee by physiotherapist, so got the cheapest tape I could find. This tape does the job as advertised, but does not feel as thick, strong or supportive as the tape used by physiotherapist, possibly due to cost. It stretched and stuck well, beginning to peel by day five/last day. Good choice of colour.
I would recommend this tape based on quality and cost, just be aware it may not feel like the professional stuff.
The worst aspect of this purchase was the awful delivery, the driver did not knock on the door but merely dumped the package on the doorstep for anyone to steal, which seems to be the norm for Amazon deliveries recently.
I’m pregnant and used this to try reduce some weighting off my back as I’ve been having trouble as baby is putting on the pounds. This is really good and it did the job on my back but it’s uncomfortable after a while and it also took some time getting it off, I followed the instructions but it’s still left the imprint of the stickiness backing on my pregnant belly and this was just over 2 weeks ago .
OMG!!! I knew this would help a little but it has excelled every expectation!
I have been in complete agony for over a week with cracked and bruised ribs, im self employed so I was willing to try anything just so I could get back to work! 2nd day of tape and I’m meds free and back in business!!! This stuff is AMAZING and the neon green is quite fetching
Day 2 and still super adhesive, no perling corners, no over stretch and best of all hardly any pain.
LOVE this stuff and I’m forever grateful
Just an update it did cause major blistering so although it works be prepared for the aftermath
I had a slight accident involving a sledge, a steep slope and a brick wall which resulted in a sprained ankle lasting months! I tried this tape as I needed to do a long drive but my ankle was struggling Tape actually helped a lot and gave some relief and support Meant I could do a 4 hour journey that I needed to do. Unfortunately I had some kind of allergic reaction to the tape which made my foot itchy, swollen and red (hives) and couldn’t use it again
Tape had good stretch, stuck well, offered support and did feel like it eased the pai
Due to a recent knee injury I had to use this tape to get some more support for my knee. I have bought this after I have received the first taping from my physiotherapist. This tape was very similar to the one they used and did the exact same job. I would recommend this product. However I also want to say I have never used any other tape or tape in general before but for my purposes it was perfect and arrived quickly.
Aslong as your skin is clean and dry it will hold with no issues, I had the remnants of a moisturiser on my skin and had to clean it off with some wet wipes to allow the tape to stick
I recently review this tape and only gave it 2 stars, but I’d like to review it again!
I’ve had to wear the tape constantly over the last few months and this is by far the best tape. Other more expensive brands are not as kind to the skin as this one, and it stays on far better and longer than the leading brand( In my opinion )
I’m converted! Also it comes on a roll so you can cut to size you need.
So, for the time that i was able to use this, it was great and did the job, however, i had a nasty blistering allergic reaction that has now scarred. This is NOT THE SELLERS FAULT, allergies happen. I should’ve patch tested but it just didn’t occur to me i needed to. So cut off a very small amount, put it where you plan to use it and leave it for however long (within the guidelines) you plan to leave it on your skin when you actually use it, don’t make my stupid mistake! My joints didn’t dislocate whilst i wore it though lmao.
Used the tape as a strap for for belly due to being pregnant worked brilliant.
Also for my partners sprained wrist so he could continue to work. Help loads with both. Easy to cut and apply. Just do not take it off wet as it sticks.
Excellent product which has helped me greatly with my strained MCL.
The adhesion of the tape is 5 star and lasts a good 3 days which includes training and showers. I took the tape off after 12hrs once and it was difficult to get off!!!
There are plenty of instructional videos to assist with application.
You have to cut the tape to size but the additional costs of precut tape is not worth it.
This is my second purchase and I will definitely buy again as and when I need too.
I don’t normally write reviews but have to mention this product. Over the years I have ordered many different brands of tape for my children who are very sporty and suffer with Osgood Schlatter. (growing pains) This is the most adhesive tape ever bought from Amazon site. It lasts through a two hour swim session easily and sweaty team sports. Excellent. I would however not use this tape if I was elderly, had thin or sensitive skin as I could see that it has the potential to cause damage to those skin types.
I see other reviews that complain it doesnt stick. It is important to follow the rules when sticking on tape including not stretching to the very end of piece of tape and also rubbing on the tape after sticking to activate the adhesive.
I’d like to say I’m not a physio but I’m surprised to see some reviews that have used this tape as boob tape. Taping on delicate skin, especially at a high percentage is going to give you adhesive burns like seen in some of the other reviews.
I think this tape is good. I have used it for my runners knee and cuboid syndrome and it’s worked a charm. It lasted about 2 days with work outs and showers.
There are a few instructions but it does say to apply at no more than 70% stretch and I would add that I would only use this maximum on joints with thicker skin, so knees and ankles. If you’re using it for your shoulders or back, go much looser. My advice is, if you’re unsure about application, get a physio to show you how to apply it.
Also, apply to shaved skin and take it off in the shower – it’s less painful to remove this way.
Omg it’s amazing – I did manage to go through a whole roll on my practice round (with some mistakes) but it’s a lifesaver. I could tell by how strong the hold was that my breasts were not going to move.
On the same token, because the adhesive is so strong, please don’t use this without a nipple protector and consider removing it from your skin using coconut oil or something similar.
Incredible !
I had an injury that required stitches and I’d covered it with some gauze and put the tape over the top to protect it. At the end of the run the gauze was still bone dry despite being submerged in water. I know that this is not the intended purpose of the tape and I do not recommend repeating what I have done as it is not safe but a good example of the tapes water resistance.
Only negative is the price for the amount of tape you get.
*DISCLAIMER*
I don’t endorse binding with this specific tape and recommend anyone who chooses to bind to seek medical advice first and to research safe ways to bind before using KT Tape as a method. I mention binding in my review as I know some people will be looking at this tape with that intended purpose, for my personal use it worked very well for me and I followed guided advice form professionals. Each body is different and I cannot say whether or not it would be safe for your personal use.
