"I used the original genie in the late 60s until mid-70s. I am 81 and excited about getting started. I remember seeing the Green Bay Packers use these. I have worked out 'faithfully' since 1960. I will now be able to do 4x/week. 2x genie, 2x intervals with air dyne, body weight, and kettlebell. I told my daughter I was losing strength, her reply: about damn time."
