Will the Air Force let me run with calf/shin compression wraps or do i need to leave those at home.?

Question

i am currently running with calf/shin compression wraps on both legs due to a calf strain in both calves. i only run 2 days a week b/c thats all i can handle right now. Just curious is i can take them with me to basic.

Answer 1

You can probably take 'em but 99.9% chance they won't let you run with em on. If you're having any problems in basic with PT then they'll probably hold u back in training. Talk to your recruiter just to make sure. I was in the army 10 years ago so I have no idea what's changed, if anything has? Good Luck!

Answer 2

You can take them with you but will not be able to PT with them on.

note: make sure they are skin tone or black so that you can use them in tech school.

Edit: You can't use them at any time during BMT but while you are in tech school you can use them during normal PT and tested PT.
