@dshopperz001 Your a joke mate
-
haha this is a joke. That's not walking, just hoping around. WHy would you wear long braces, that doesnt help at all. You can't even bend your legs!
-
The walk is awesome.. But the way he sits and gets up from the floor is unbeatable..
How was he injured..

My ex-girlfriend is an L2 para--She could beat me, as well as quite a few other guys fairly often at arm wrestling--Because of her level of injury, she could walk with braces and crutches or a walker, but usually used her chair.

Hey I've been a chair-user for almost 10 years and you're absolutely right! Those of us who are pretty active tend to have better-than-average upper body strength. Most of my guy friends won't even think about arm wrestling me, and I've won more than a few drinks at the bar by beating men who don't seem to realize that pushing a chair all day is like a constant workout :)

I'm a T3 para but am getting trunk stability back, thankfully. I was discouraged by my PT and OT from using a walker with braces because it would hurt my shoulders. Have you noticed it taking a toll on your shoulder health?

Talk about strength! No one could win in a serious arm wrestle with him:) ! (Yes, it's a humorous comment, but one has to admit it's true!! )

where did you learn to do this?
I wear the braces outside my pants because I only use them for exercise. It is too much work to put them inside and I don't care how it looks. I use a walker because my injury is at T4-5 and I don't have enough trunk stability to use crutches without a high risk of falling.
