Hello everyone, This has probably been addressed before, so I apologize if that's the case. I have either broken or lost my Altus Firewalker bands and am ready for a new set. Unfortunately, the one's in Cathe's shop get horrible reviews for breaking (I can commiserate with that since 2 of...

Hi Everyone, I recently took up running again after not doing so for many years. I thought it would be tough on my body at this point but I am loving it and not experiencing any joint or muscle issues at all much to my delight! I have found it to be such a stress relieving and calming...
