He measured me for the correct fit etc. etc., and I am now using them every day. I did find a YouTube site which explained how they should be used and that was extremely helpful. I walk at the crack of dawn, sometimes when it is still dark, I do meet people who do a double take the first time they see me, but I have had people actually stop and ask where I bought them! I find they make me walk taller, hold my head up instead of stooping, they definitely work the upper back muscles and I'm hoping they are helping with the arm wings, but it might be too late for that! When you get to the point where you forget you are using them you will find you are moving much quicker than normal. Anyway, I like them and will continue to use them despite the odd remarks I get.

We were on a River Cruise from Budapest to Amsterdam and at every stop we saw both young and old using them!

Do you remember the guys name or number who lives in Alhambra?
