I read on another board where guys were doing this to relieve pain from patellar tendonitis.
I tried it the other night and it seemed to work very well...however i dont think i did it right. Anyone familiar with the proper way to do this??

it depends on where you are having tracting problems.

I would start with two pieces of tape on the outer part of the knee cap and pull inward, ending behind your medial epicondyle so the tape has something to hold onto. Stay on the top half of your knee cap. If you let the tape go on the bottom half sometimes that can irritate your infrapatellar fat pad. Try this first.
