The added resistance is making me stronger. <br />As for purchasing, I tried to buy them directly from Theraband and they <br />quoted a $60.00 cost. I ordered them from Amazon for around $40.00. They arrived quickly. Rating: 5 / 5 Aquafins were recommended by my physical therapist following a hip replacement because I was already doing pool therapy and needed help

I have hip & knee arthritis in the same leg. Put these on, then I walked 20x around a above ground pool (about a 28' length pool, 4.5' deep). <br /> <br />For comparison, I am not an Ironman triathlete, but could ride a mtn bike 3 miles on flat ground in 23 minutes. <br /> <br />However, I was very sore from arthritis after using these fins in the pool, so much so, I needed a walking stick to walk, until the pain subsided in 1/2 hr. <br /> <br />Be careful! I think I am going to cut these fins down to a smaller length, my arthritis could not take it. Rating: 5 / 5 But watch it if you have arthritis in hips/knees.
