Question
My son wants to wear ankle & wrist weights to strengthen his arms & legs for soccer. He's 10 years old. What weight should I consider as to not interfere with normal development? Or do you even recommend this? Thanks. Michelle

Answer

Dear Michelle:

Thank you for your inquiry. One to 1.5 lbs weights should be sufficient for him.  However, wearing ankle and wrist weights will have minimum impact on his performance.  As an avid soccer player myself, the best way to build strength for playing soccer is through low resistanc training such as push ups, sit ups and squats as well as sprint drills.  Hope this helps and good luck.

Question
I once saw a chair in a doctors office that would take people up and down the stairs. It was electric and it was mounted to the wall on a rail so when you were in the chair you would push the button to go up or down. I am interested in finding a chair like that for my grandma because she has trouble wakling up the stairs. Could you please let me know if you have something like that. Thank you.

Answer

Dear Ms. Holland:

We would recommend contacting a local durable medical equipment dealer or reseller.  You can ussually find their listings in the local Yellow Pages.  The chair track has to be custom installed based on the layout of the staircase as well as the weight of the individual.  As a result, these types of projects are best handled by local firms.
