what do you think of this walker / arm attachment?

Hey abacoian, that looks like a pretty good walker! The reviews are good and it looks like it's built well. Do you think your legs are strong enough for this? It'll definitely be a great tool to help build strength.

I haven't seen the armrest before but my first thought was I'd need one for each side. As DJ said leg strength would be the issue. They look more stable than forearm crutches alone, but I can't picture moving.
If no spotter available I'd keep working from the floor or chair, be safe, no sense putting yourself at risk for another injury. You were looking at some safe parallel bars and if you have them it would be safer to walk the walker within them. One more chance to catch yourself. You have the drive to do this you can tell from your posts. Play it safe.

I think maybe a long time ago I used a similar walker in therapy but can't remember. Apart from my up n free trainer the most recent walker I've used is a standard one without those arm supports. I agree with being careful. But I have found things that it seems too difficult to try with some risk, that if I feel like I can do it and try, it is difficult but usually with effort it can be done. Trust me, I am careful and listen to my limits and use caution. I think that kind of walker would be beneficial for me, but maybe I'm not quite there yet. I have several ideas that I think would be beneficial, but at the moment I'm just keeping my regular routine going because it has been good for me. I hope to post sometime my other ideas and get feedback on what direction would be best for me to go in. Thanks for listening guys and keep at it.

Another thought...I notice that many have thier walker settings too low. Not only does this cause one to stoop, it causes too much reliability on the arms. A higher walker setting will not only encourage leg strength, but in those moments of needing support, it's there.

Another random thought.....I did "safe laps"....ie, I walked around my couch with my walker....My mentality was if I fell, it would be on the couch! For the record, I never once fell using the walkwr. I have since purchased a hemi walker...........Huh! I shall keep practicing.....
