Motion is lotion!! I’m a former high school PE teacher, athlete, and coach who is now moving into the twilight years of my life. I thought I would just add in here that motion in one’s younger years really has lasting impact on one’s ‘golden years’. I agree with you, Immy, it’s so important to find activities and routines that work for us as an individual, and to not get caught up in trends or hype that may suit others but may not be our thing. We all move differently. Please keep us posted on your marathon training. When is the event? Sending you tonnes of encouragement!! I am stoked for you!! Ⓜary💕🏃🏻♀
Immy, your content inspires me… here’s my story. Late last Fall, not long after you moved to The US, you posted an invite on IG to join in your “100 Day Outdoor Movement Challenge”. On Oct. 29/22 I accepted this challenge with unwavering enthusiasm and rigorous determination. This invite and this inspiration was the exact thing that I needed as we headed into the cold and dark winter season. SUCCESS… I stuck with it and completed Day 100 on Feb 5. I felt jubilant for moving my body for 100 days, especially on days when I got home late from work and had very little free time. Since then I have carried on and I am going for “A Year of Outdoor Movement”… currently I’m on Day 194. I’m not perfect, I have missed 8 days of outdoor movement during the past (almost) seven months, but I’m not gonna dwell on slight imperfections or hiccups in my routine. With winter behind us, the lakes have thawed and the wild swimming season has begun. Now things will become easier for me as I am passionate about wild swimming, foraging, walking, cycling, and working in our yard and garden. Thanks, Immy, for the invite and the inspiration. Stay tuned… “1 Year of Outdoor Movement” will be up on for me Oct 29 of this year. ALSO, I must say that with all this daily activity… I am really enjoying baking and eating some occasional treats such as your Vanilla Scones, Pecan Coffee Vanilla Brownies, and Welsh Cakes. Your inspire me… TYSM!! Ⓜary💕💦🏊♀
I’m a class person! I’ve been doing Les Mills workouts for years (from home, using the app). I alternate between types of classes all the time, and I spend 1 hour working out each day for 5 days a week.
Immy, this video is incredible - thank you. I also wanted to say that I usually watch RUclips videos on 2x speed and I've realised that I never do with yours because it feels wrong to. Your art reminds me to slow down! Congratulations for all that you are and that you continue to be(come), I can't wait to watch this journey unfold!!
This new series is amazing! I have been struggling so much sticking to my routines even though I know I feel better when I’m on the ball with them…This is so motivating and made me think about why I do the things in my routine so that they have a purpose. I feel like that makes it easier to actually implement them😊
I need to create a routine. Since retiring I’ve not been very routine oriented but so busy a lot of the time. I attend Fitbody Boot camp 3 or 4 times a week and I indoor rock climb once per week. I walk my dogs. I used to “run”, really jog, but my knees don’t like it. I want to create a routine of drinking my water again, still bootcamp, yoga and meditation. Thanks for your inspiration.
I love this type of content. Thank you! I love this slow living /homestead vibe yet you’re still such an adventurer. Health and wellness in such an honest way.
I started doing yoga consistently during the pandemic, generally about 20 minutes, most mornings. I had to take some breaks due to traumas and illness, but I have been doing it consistently for several months now. Key for me is also not having to think too much about it, so I generally pick a youtube video (often the night before) and follow along. I also have a few fallbacks, so to speak, videos that are 5 or 10 minutes long, for days when I'm in a rush or feel tired.
My sons karate/MMA gym has a women on weights class at the same time. For an hour twice a week…I get to have me time/exercise! It’s also very good for him to see me get active and strong
I really love this kind of content and you speaking so openly about your mental health means a lot to me so thanks for sharing in your own boundaries 💙 If you feels safe enough to share others videos like this one it would be great.
I recently had a friend write me a weekly workout plan. She really enjoys doing them and I appreciate not having to plan it out myself. Since taking away that stress my workouts have been more enjoyable and I have been able to be more consistent throughout the week.
I love the idea of reworking/creating new routines based on life changes. I recently moved and I'm still trying to rework my routines to fit my new life/home. I can't wait to see more of your routines. So inspiring! Thank you!
I'd love if you could talk about if your fitness habits have changed the way you eat. I'm on a fitness journey myself and had no idea how much my food intake needed to increase so my body could do strength training + preparing for a a half marathon
This was such an amazing and inspiring video! I've never worked out or been involved in sports so my life's been pretty sedentary, but getting fit, being able to run and move my body and be strong is something I've always wanted. A lot of the reasons you gave for working out are things which I think of as well! I'm just trying to figure out how I can reach my fitness goals and seeing this really helped
Loved this video! I'm really trying to dial in my workout and self care routines lately. And this was hugely inspirational. My current activity routine is to take long, brisk walks daily, and then train martial arts 3 days a week (90-180 minutes each time) and yoga on my off days!
I'd love to see more marathon training content! I'd love to do one in the future, having done a 10k in the past, but I also got shin splints so I feel like your content on the subject would be really relatable!
I loved video. You're videos are always gorgeous but I especially love when you do a series - I know you have read lots on habit building etc. Could you bring any of that in too?
Really enjoyed this, Immy! I love love love how you talk about exercise and moving your body as something that's driven by a desire for good mental health. Would definitely be interested in more marathon-related content :)
you inspired me to take the plunge and invest in a brod and taylor fermenting box. I just made my first batch of mung bean and puy lentil tempeh. I froze most of it, but the made a great tempeh and quinoa meatloaf with gochujang/ tomato/molasses glaze.
I’m also working on getting my pullup back! Before the lockdowns, I would whip out several no problem, nowadays even though I’m mostly back in shape, I cant even get one 😭 but I agree they’re just impressive to be able to do lol let’s get this!
50min cardio!? Holy shit that's impressive! I do climbing 3 times per week 2h per training, so I went from 0,5 pull up to 5 pull ups without exercising additionally.
I loved this video. I really needed to hear this all too. Copilot sounds amazing (also can we talk about Candices teeth!?) is it available in the UK? 🧡
I'm sure you already know this but making sure you're buying new running shoes every couple of months if you're a high-mileage runner is essential for managing shin pain

I'm glad that you are finding an exercise routine that works for you!

The run experience on RUclips has some great warm ups. The hip opening one actually helped my shin issues
I'd love if you could talk about if your fitness habits have changed the way you eat. I'm on a fitness journey myself and had no idea how much my food intake needed to increase so my body could do strength training + preparing for a a half marathon
I love the idea of this series! Can't wait to see more.
Same!

Loooove CoPilot! I've been using it for almost a year and my coach (hi Ken!) is the best! Big fan!
I'd love to see more marathon training content! I'd love to do one in the future, having done a 10k in the past, but I also got shin splints so I feel like your content on the subject would be really relatable!
I loved this content, Immy, and I would really like to hear more about your marathon training in the future!
please do more videos about your marathon training!
really looking forward to future episodes!!
Love this video 😊
Loved the video! I'm all here for the fitness and routines content, happy to watch more of it 😊 (I also love your cooking and gardening Videos 😄)
I loved video. You're videos are always gorgeous but I especially love when you do a series - I know you have read lots on habit building etc. Could you bring any of that in too?
Really inspired by this! Would love to see more training and gym videos!!
Really enjoyed this, Immy! I love love love how you talk about exercise and moving your body as something that's driven by a desire for good mental health. Would definitely be interested in more marathon-related content :)

really enjoyed watching this video while having my lunch :)
Can’t wait to see how you get on! 🎉
I’m also working on getting my pullup back! Before the lockdowns, I would whip out several no problem, nowadays even though I’m mostly back in shape, I cant even get one 😭 but I agree they’re just impressive to be able to do lol let’s get this!
Loved this video! Building good routines while also being sustainable is a great combination. Can’t wait for the rest of this series!!!
Love this video Immy ❤ I feel inspired to get back into my training.
i love this kind of content! keeps me motivated on my own fitness journey 🤍
I need a water bottle to take on my marathon training, do you have any plastic-free recommendations? x
Very cool, looking forward to watching this series 😊👍
Great video - good luck!
50min cardio!? Holy shit that's impressive! I do climbing 3 times per week 2h per training, so I went from 0,5 pull up to 5 pull ups without exercising additionally.
Beautifully inspirational as always!
I love this series already - so motivating! And I can relate to the shin splints. I’ve been thrown off course by these as well.
I loved this video. I really needed to hear this all too. Copilot sounds amazing (also can we talk about Candices teeth!?) is it available in the UK? 🧡
Just to clarify - because her teeth are AMAZING. No other reason 😂
Yes loves videos about routines 😊
Could you please show us how you changed your running stride?
Love this content!
I'm sure you already know this but making sure you're buying new running shoes every couple of months if you're a high-mileage runner is essential for managing shin pain

Do you ever watch tv?
Yeah
