    This 53-year-old, soon-to-be Granny sends . . .

    Loads of love for Lowmax! I have bad knees and have to modify all high-impact. Now, don't get me wrong, that hasn't stopped me from buying and repeatedly using everything you've ever put out, but I have to modify a lot on the cardio . . . Until now! What a thrill to do the whole routine...
