Agree with previous comment that these are all my favorites.The bicep hold was awesome. Definitely affirmed I'm using the right amount of weight -- for now! Other have dubbed you genius. Totally concur. Thank you for all your variety in exercises, stretches, and ending quotations.
Perfection. All my favourite arm ones standing. My biceps r on fire. That was soooo great. Another v v v good arm go to. This has been a great series Jules. I'm going to be using these all the time. Very well taught. You're an absolute genius xxx so very much appreciated❤🙏❤
Good Morning Jules: another great workout. I love when I turn my phone on and see a notification from you, I know it’s going to be a great workout. It still hard to use weights but I finished the workout and my arms are sore. I do rest when my arms start hurting. I’m hanging in there cause my arms will stop hurting. Have a great day. 😅😅😅
Hi George, if your arms are hurting, I'd suggest lifting a slightly lighter weight. The exercise should be somewhat challenging, but you shouldn't feel any pain. You might feel a bit of soreness the next day or two, but again, it shouldn't be painful. I hope that helps.
After a weekend of yard work, this was difficult at my normal weights, but I just kept going. It's so much more fun to have someone to exercise with, even if you and all of these other folks are at a distance, I feel like we're all out there getting stronger together. Thanks!
Spring yard work is definitely tougher than we realize until we feel the muscles the next few days! Kudos to you for doing the strength workout after a gardening weekend. Getting stronger is definitely a great feeling!
Phew! Exhausted, but feels great. Sometimes I am unsure what is a light, medium or heavy weight for me, but with repetition, I should get into a groove-and remember!
Hello Jules, an excellent combination of two postures, for all those who cannot stand all the time, I love being able to sit down, great, greetings, thanks!! 😘🌹
Good morning Jules 🌄 ☕🌄 Nothing makes me happier to see your notification as soon as I open my eyes. 12 minutes!! Totally have 12 minutes!! Coming!! 🏋️♀️
This was very good, the stretching at the end was esp. beneficial!🙏 Plank was done, probably because I find it doable ( push-ups, i'd have skipped😁)Thank you for the good accompanying music, esp for playing Shine...Your instructions and cues were on-point, as always 💙
We very much appreciate and are grateful to you, Jules, for your efforts to make it possible for us to do exercise modifications. We also realise that this is not always possible. Thank you for your training, Jules.💛
Good motivation to start my June and July goals: integrate strength workouts 2-3x/week with complementary cardio, stretching, balance, all-in-one. Maybe a July calendar to help with that?
In the June calendar I tried to include most of those (I actually want to include more but there is never enough room). Plus, I also worry about overloading people with too many videos on one day.
A great workout, Jules - just what I was wanting for my arms and shoulders! I used my heavier weights (except for the lateral ones) and did well. Thanks so much!
What can I say other than this was such a comprehensive routine, and fun to do! I was forced to use a 1 lb. weights for the lateral and front raises because of my very weak right shoulder. I soldiered on and felt great at the end of this routine. I also added that bonus 1 minute plank. I am proud of myself and fortunate to have you as an excellent exercise designer...Anastasia
Cant believe how much stronger i feel these days. All thanks to your wonderful workouts. Not only feeling stronger but i really have felt so good..... Mentally and physically exercise is the key. Im so glad I started strength training.. Total eye opener at 57...and needed. Your just the best there is. So v v v much appreciated ❤
And day 3 done. I up my weight today for some and by end my arms were wobbly lol. I do these ones every day since you released them. They really make u feel strong xx
If you are brand new to weights, definitely start light (maybe 5 lbs). But, if you are use to lifting, then it's time to challenge yourself while ensuring you have good form and aren't swinging the weights. You want to make sure you are in control of the weights at all times. To find the right weight, start with back row and pick a weight that becomes challenging by the time we get close to the 30 second mark (or down to the 0 mark since we count down). If you feel that you could still lift that weight for another 30 seconds, your weight is too light. The same rule applies for each exercise. When I do back row at home and I'm doing 2-3 sets, I'll use 15 lbs in each hand. But, if I completed just 1 set, I would use 20 lbs in each hand. For lateral raise & front raise, I generally use 5 lbs. I broke my collarbone many years ago so I am limited with what I can do with my shoulders. I would say try 2-3 lbs, see how you feel and if you're lifting laterally 20-30 times, then it's too easy and move up in weight. I hope that helps. Let me know if you need more clarification:)

I just responded to Linda in another comment. Please read my response to understand what the right weight for you might be. I hope that helps!
@@ImprovedHealth Yes, thanks, that helps. And I may need to make myself a chart to remember what I have done.

I'm glad the program worked for you:)
Wow! Those 21’s were no joke. And the bicep hold? Whew! Thanks for another great workout. 😊
Yes, the 21's are deceiving! I love that exercise for feeling the burn in the biceps.

Thanks Valerie! I’m glad to read that you are making use of the heavier weights.💪
Biceps r a bursting in a good way. Done day 3 after the 45 minutes one. Amazing arm workout🏋🚴💪 feeling strong today❤
Amazing!!! Good for you for finding the time to do both workouts today.
Soooo great. I'm going do these every week after my cardio exercise this one is an arm killer.. I could feel my bicep burn burn. Xxx
I'm so glad you plan to continue to do these. You really will see change happen as the weeks go on.
