Summer 2020 and the Alinker walking bike :)

A little bit about my summer and showing the Alinker walking bike. I’m feeling a lot more stiff right now compared to the summer and I think that has to do with not getting outside as much lately due to the weather :/

Multiple Sclerosis and Heat!
Переглядів 2695 років тому
I talk a little bit about how heat affects Multiple Sclerosis, my experiences and day. Skip to 2:00. I tried saying umm, soo, and yeah. . . less than previous vids. Lol. I forgot to mention when I was working full time I would occasionally run cold water on my wrists in an attempt to cool down and currently take a lot of cold showers. Cheers!
Te deseo lo mejor y que vayas mejorando cada dia, Eres una persona maravillosa y especial, mereces lo mejor del mundo.
Troy, YOU are fabulous! I appreciate your guts coping with anxiety. You are simply charming. I wish the best for you. Keep moving. Movement is medicine!!
Buenas. Queria decirte que tienes unos ojos muy expresivos y bonitos-
buenas Troy te admiro mucho por tu forma de adaptarte, a tu MS . eres un super campeon. gracias por tu video-
I hope it worked good for you buddy but my old man was 126 lb this piece couldn't go over a transition between carpet and linoleum for over three grand there is way cheaper better models on Amazon
Do the front wheels have a hard time going over the gap in an elevator door? Do you have to put air in the tires often or can you change them out for the solid tires?
Can you buy this in the UK
Thank you. I hope you are ok 👍🏻
Hey! I have MS and am trying to decide which electric wheelchair to go with. Do you still like the zoomer? Or have you found one you prefer more?
Heyy! I still love the zoomer:) It’s helped so much. No complaints.
It is a great bike after they have pushed it with their feet they can pick up their feet and ride it without pushing their feet.
Fantastic review! I'm getting one soon, its on its way. Thank you for the terrific video! The foot rest looks great! I trip over anything anyways, lol. I have Fibromyalgia and a I can make myself walk a little bit but not far without sitting down and I can't drive because of other disabilities. I cant wait for this to help me get out of my apartment! I have places to go, lol.
Hahah. That’s awesome! Sorry for the late reply. I get that. I hope you’re liking the chair. It’s a game changer
Excellent video Troy, I wish you all the best, and keep striding!
Thanks for posting your video and I wish you the very best. I have neuropathy in my feet and balance is bad. I am looking to buy an Alinker, because I think I will have more options for getting out an about. Again I wish you the very best with the new medications❤🩹
What size Alinker have you got Troy?
I really think it’s the Large size but it’s not on their website :/ I would get their ‘medium’ size now (the largest) But I recommend measuring your ‘inseam’ Sorry for being confused!
@@troypettit2332 thanks for responding. I’ll measure and ask them 👍
Hi Troy! Happened upon your videos as I was researching the ALinker. I love your generosity of sharing. It's so honest and helpful I hope you know. I'm wondering how you are feeling now. Did they start a new medication?
Thanks a lot, Kerry! :) that’s awesome! The Alinker is great, I need to use it more consistently. I go through phases 😅 I feel pretty similar to a year or two ago before my flare up in November. I felt really awful when that happened and don’t want it to happen again so I started taking Mayzent at the end of July.
I have a bad ms flare 1 week ago still active now omg I can't balance
Thanks for posting your review. Your video was very helpful. I just got a Zoomer for my partner with Parkinson's.
Hey, thanks! It has helped me so much the last couple of years. Wishing you the best!
@@troypettit2332 How do you transport your Zoomer in the car. I find it too heavy for me to left into the car trunk. Any suggestions?
You rock dude😎
I appreciate that. :)👊🏻
Great video.
I have been with ms 33 years I want you to informe me how I can get it .I leave in greece.
Thank you Troy.
Happened upon your videos and have been following your progress. Thank you for sharing. There's no doubt your words are helping others who are struggling with illness. Your positivity is inspiring! Hang in there :)
Binge-watching your videos here.
Glad I found your channel. I am a "MS newbie" (just diagnosed last month) and really find these videos to be a good support. My legs are getting more "messed up" over the last few months; not expecting to have to use what you are using yet but have started to use a cane. Was it a quick progression for you from "cane to chair"? Wishing you all the best, Troy.
Agh. I’m sorry that you were recently diagnosed, Russ and having some leg problems lately but I would recommend walking and using them as much as you can on good days. MS affects everyone a little differently so don’t let my handicap scare you 😅 I’m not very good at managing it ha. The cane is great but try to have it as backup in case you lose balance or something. I used a cane for a couple of years but leaned on it too much ha. I could probably still use a walker but it would make daily life “cooking and cleaning” so much more challenging. And thanks for the positive vibes!🙏🏻 Back at ya!
Good luck with everything...
Thank you! I appreciate it. 🙏🏻
Troy you’re giving Joe Dirt vibes …and we don’t hate it 🤪 Glad to see your update and that you’re doing okay! 😊
Haha. I was feeling Joe Dirt vibes. And thanks! I’m mostly okay but kinda all over the place when it comes to how I’m feeling. 😅
Just watched your video <3 you are amazing <3 I hope you start feeling better and stronger <3 I am in the UK and due to muscle wastage and circulation problems I need to get one of these as you have explained how stable they are GOOD LUCK
Thanks Alan! I really appreciate it and sorry to hear that. It will definitely help you get moving though! They’re very stable and most people rip around on them. :) I’m feeling okay though, shaking off this ms flare up from a couple of weeks ago 😊
Troy you are a sweetheart! I enjoyed your video as I am looking to buy an alinker ( for my ms) . You must be very brave to make videos. I enjoyed it.
Thank you :) That’s awesome! You’ll love it!
Dude, your video is more inspirational than you may ever know. Thank you for taking time to record it...even though you are talking to your phone! :)
Haha. :) Thanks for the message Daron! I really appreciate it 👊🏻
Where have you been? Miss you love you.... How are you? God bless. Your friend Joey
Hey thanks! I think I had an ms attack or relapse the other day and moved cities during the summer but your right. I should share my current situation. 😅
You are sooooooooo Funny! You are always smiling and therefore making me laugh. When you ate the seaweed (salty paper) I almost peed my pants lol.
Found you....enjoy you... Will binge on you tonight! You are strong. You are wise. Your friend Joey
❤
Can you take with you on airplane?
Yeah. It’s easy. You just take the battery with you onto the plane.
Thinking if getting one. But not sure where they are allowed? Banks, gyms, grocery stores. I would not be able to lock it up so I would go in to handle business. Thanks Troy
Hi Mary 🙋🏻♂️ I’m not sure either but if I was less handicapped I would take it in all of those places. If my wheelchair is allowed inside then so is the Alinker :)
@@troypettit2332 Thank you Troy. Just thought that the Alinker would be thought of a bike whih I know are not allowed in businesses. I may just need to try it and see if businesses would not allow one. :)
Thank you for posting this! (I came here from the UK via the Alinker newsletter) it looks amazing and must be wonderful to be ‘tall’, safe and active !
There are so many great things about sitting up high and having your legs working.
More power to you, Troy! 💪😀👍
Zeno volum can’t hear it at all
This video made my day. Thank you, Sir. I truly admire you and wish you all the best! 🥇
I just watched your video and it makes me want an Alinker even more! When are you doing your next video? I’m looking forward to it.
Hey Anne Marie! I highly recommend it! I wish I had one many years ago. Check out their instagram if you haven’t, the_alinker_world And thank you! :) I definitely should do that.
Dear One, in nothing but love I must ask you the most important question of your life. The Million-Dollar Question: Will you go to Heaven when you die? Have you lied, stolen, used God's name in vain, or lusted (which Jesus said was adultery, Mt. 5:28)? If so, God sees you as a liar, thief, blasphemer and adulterer at heart. If you die in your sins, you will end up in a terrible place called Hell. But there is good news!!! Though we broke God's Law, Jesus paid the fine by dying on the cross: "God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life" (Jn. 3:16). Then Jesus rose from the dead and was seen by hundreds (It's no fairytale). He fulfilled all the prophecies of the promised Savior. Please, today, repent (confess and turn away from sin, you will be free of guilt and shame) and put your faith in Jesus Christ as the only one who can save you from the judgement of God through His sacrifice on the cross. This is so urgent. You do not know when your last breath will be. God will forgive you and grant you that gift of eternal life (Eph. 2:8,9). He will give you a new heart that desires what is pleasing to God and the Holy Spirit will live inside you as you are now a child of God. Then to show your gratitude, read the bible daily and obey it, join a Christian church and be baptized. I love you. I beg you. Do not delay. "The time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God is at hand; repent and believe in The Gospel" Mark 1:15. This is a production of Living Waters Ministry LivingWaters.com Visit NeedGod.com
How much do cost
I have had MS for over 20 years and own an Alinker I love what it does to help me. Good luck to you...............
The part about the Alinker is awesome. :) Thank you! Same to you!
Happy waves from the east end (orleans) hoping to one day get out to the liquid gym to try out the alinker
Hey thanks! Back at ya. :) I hope you do!!
Thank you....going back watching seat place placement on older videos.Hope you are doing well😁
It’s a little easier to walk with a higher seat but sometimes it’s trickier to get on hah :)
I am thinking of sharing part of your video in a newsletter, would you mind? You show and explain so much! Super helpful for people who consider enrolling in the Alinker Academy
Of course! I wish I could have shown more but that’s all I could manage that day ha
What a great share Troy! Love you!
Thanks Be! 🤗❤️
I really enjoyed Troys videos. BE would you know if the Alinker is allowed in businesses? Is the Alinker considered a mobility device like a rollator or a bicycle? I live in the USA. Thank you
@@marylightfoot4817 yes you can take it inside malls and museums etc. It is your walk assist and it fits within the footprint of a wheelchair, so should be allowed everywhere a wheelchair can go
Thank you showing how you use this. Is it difficult on hills? Peace and health to you
Thank you so much. Same to you! It’s great on hills. Especially down hill for me haha. I can only creep up small hills while keeping my hand on the brake ha
Thank you for sharing, I'm thinking about getting one.
Awesome! You will love it. :)
Great video, hope you’re having better days.
Thank you so much! Mostly yes. :)
