Hard pass. I attempted to clean carpet when I was younger and that is HARD WORK, so I went back to the easy stuff (fixing the machines). I grew up in the garage working on cars with my dad, so the mechanical stuff came easy to me.If you decide to quit wrenching and start slinging a wand you don't even need a glide at that age.

The other day I got home after a 12 hour day all commercial and I got out of the van and noticed that I was hunched over for the first 10 ft of walking
All of a sudden I realized that my kids could see me and I fixed my posture lol

We hired college football players at times and it killed the for a few days to a week but they eventually got used to it and would work the Summers for us.
It gets easier with time. Using a GreenGlides does make a world of difference too. Far less resistance allows you to clean for much longer before getting tired.
I always wished I had the patience to wrench. Once I bust my knuckles, I get frustrated and I lose all I interest. I give up and want someone with skills to fix it for me.
