A week before the first game of my senior season in 2020, I ruptured my Achilles in practice. I got surgery and decided to bet on myself. I chose not to come back and play another college season.

The athletic trainers had me use Suji and I loved the cuffs along with the inclusion of technology. It was super easy to calibrate to my body and the air pressure did not run out as the workout went on. I highly recommend the Suji brand. Once I was allowed to have a bar on my back, I would do standard lifts with the cuffs on.
