Great video, and not only for seniors! I came across it accidentally but I found out it is a gem. Your explanations are appreciated and much helpful! Thank you!
👌 👍thank you Dr. Katie. Recently stopped going to Ymca seniorcize classes as my new chickens need me. lol This is just what I need to take its place and do at home✌️✌️just subscribed here in Tampa😎🇺🇸 grateful to you.
Thank you so much! I am so glad that you find these videos helpful! Your kind words remind me that what I do is impactful and I'm grateful you took the time to let me know!❤
Oh Frederic, I’m so sorry to hear that! Bone density is so important and hopefully will help prevent fractures in the future! Just make sure to check with your doctor before doing exercises, thanks! 😁
Had total hip replacement at 65 after a tragic tripping incident through garage thresh hold onto floor. Because of my really good health and age a full replacement was recommend. I am just over 1 month out of surgery with home PT. It has just ended and now I am visiting put on site….intake first meeting done and tomorrow I start. I am walking well using Walker…. just started on cane. Had a couple of drop with PT a with surgery side knee as It just kind of let go……I am unable to kick out my leg when seated or left leg in a March on my back. I can March walking,and my walking is great just getting used to feeling strong again. I was always very strong and full of energy and lifting and garden8ng and walking….very active so just trying to engage that muscle(s) for kick out action. Suggestions?
@@diannajohnston4558 I’m so sorry to hear about that incident and glad you’re through that and the surgery! While I always recommend speaking directly to your physical therapist, some exercises that I find effective for clients who are having difficulty with strength through full range of motion is doing isometric exercises- I would ask your PT what they think about that
I really enjoyed watching this and will try it tomorrow. My only question is, are you using 2 5 lb weights or 2 10 lb weights for your arm exercises? The 5lb. I can manage but definitely not 10! Thank you for your teaching.
I'm so glad you're enjoying the video! I used 10 lbs and that's not a recommendation- the reason I'm using 10lbs is because that's a challenge for me to get to 10 reps. You want to find a weight that's challenging for you so that you're feeling the need to take your rest after the last rep. Does that help? Thanks again!
Great question! Both use the muscles of the shoulder and back, but the pull down is using more lats (back muscles) versus the press is using more deltoids. Both are great exercises to build strength though!
Great question! I would do something every day to improve your bone density as it does take repeated activity and time. Of course you can utilize this video, or you can check out my article theseniorcenteredpt.com/bone-density/ for more ideas for weightbearing exercises to add to your weekly routine
Is this safe for senior female with osteopenia and scoliosis? I want to improve my bones. 73 next week, all original parts 😅 and good health otherwise.
Great question! The answer is it depends on what your healthcare provider approves you to do! That being said, in general, we want to improve bone strength for those with osteopenia and scoliosis. I highly recommend you look up scoliopilates to help with your scoliosis as well. As always, check with your provider before starting any physical activity program, thanks!
How many times a week do you recommend doing this series (every day, every other day)? Do you plan to offer other videos in the bone density series? If these become easier to do, should we increase the number of reps per session--for instance raise the number to 15 instead of 10). Thanks!
Hi Reena! I recommend doing bone density exercises consistently, but every other day would be wonderful! Yes, you can increase the reps or add resistance to make exercises more challenging!
@@TheSeniorCenteredPT Thanks. As your series contains exercises for both top and bottom, I thought it wise to take a break (exercise at home). This is a nice series to do consistently and it shouldn't take too much time to do. Thanks. Can you recommend other upper and lower weighted exercises to do on alternate days for overall toning?
@@reenakazmann9183 I’m so glad you find it useful! Also, one of my favorite exercise videos is this one ruclips.net/video/Oy4qDzdcmKw/видео.html that has upper and lower body. Also, in the next couple months I’ll have a video on my favorite exercises for seniors and how to progress them! I hope these help! Thank you again for your kind feedback and great job building your strength!
Great video, and not only for seniors! I came across it accidentally but I found out it is a gem. Your explanations are appreciated and much helpful! Thank you!

I will do this at least four times a week. 13:55

Could you clarify what your doctorate is.
Doctorate of Physical Therapy (DPT)
Regarding shoulder press is that the same as pull down ?
Great question! Both use the muscles of the shoulder and back, but the pull down is using more lats (back muscles) versus the press is using more deltoids. Both are great exercises to build strength though!
