Zero, knee sleeves and knee wraps are two totally different animals.

Sleeves just keep the knees warm. They do not provide any support during the lift.

Wraps provide support for the knee joint during the squat and can add 50ish lbs to a typical squat.

No competitive IPF lifter uses sleeves. They all use 2m knee wraps. There are a couple allowed types.

Most common being the Inzer power wraps and the ****l black wraps. Again, 2m length limit for IPF.
