are armbands and knee bands to keep your joints from popping out of place when you’re lifting heavy stuff?

No. They’re support, rather than protection. For people with messed up knees, it keeps the knee from wandering away under the skin, or the muscles from moving wrong. The muscles do all the work, the bands just keep everything in it’s right place.

No you said to prevent it from popping out of place, he is saying it’s to stop from wandering. Huge difference.

The difference is that you don’t need them unless you have a bad joint.

That will depend on the atmosphere.

It’s a lot heavier than that! The density of steel varies as there are different alloys, but most are in the range of 7.5-9 g/cm^3

Gold has a density that’s more than double most steel alloys at 19.3 g/cm^3. Of course, that’s assuming we’re taking about pure gold, but still, gold is way more than 10% heavier than steel
