Elbow sleeves, yay or nay?

[initialize]

Was pressing 315 for reps a couple days ago and my left elbow had a "weird"/ uncomfortable feeling while lifting it, but it immediately went away after my set and there's no pain at rest. But I definitely don't want to feel it next time I bench -- throughout the set I was worried I might get an elbow injury soon if I'm not careful.

It got me thinking, would it be worth it to invest in some elbow sleeves? Does anyone else here use them?

I use knee sleeves and sometimes elbow. But I'm weak and old. I don't care that it's cheating. Anything that helps me get another rep without injury.

The knee sleeves are a must, but I only use the elbow for near max sets.

Sleeves never did a thing for me. I always tried to determine what was causing an issue and deal with that.
