Sasha I know they will affect my stride, walking speed, and climbing stairs, but wish me luck in this.
I wish you that in any case š
Ines However 8 cm is huge, I guess it is for start the usage.
don't forget that unlike many here, @Sasha will be using the bands mostly on dates (outdoors), so I think a little more chain length is certainly in order.
Elsa I now know that I also have a 4cm chain. This is already very restrictive compared to the 6cm chain. Significantly smaller steps and stairs I have to go sideways with it.
i think then 4cm is too little or the bands are too low. with a chain it should always be possible to go forward up stairs ((even if it is not easy and very slow).
