Knee Friendly Standing Strength Workout for Beginners & Seniors // 30 minute w/ dumbbells
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 15 окт 2024
- Welcome to this full body all standing strength training workout that is great for everyone including active seniors and beginners! There are no squats or lunges in this workout so you don't need to worry about modifying if you have troublesome knees. You may want a chair or nearby wall for balance support on a few of the moves.
You will love these fresh exercises that are all compound moves meaning we are working more than one body part at a time. This 30 minutes workout packs a lot in including a warm up and cool down. All exercises are set to a timer (45 seconds on, 15 off) so you can go at your own pace. Choose a dumbbell weight that works for you and maybe challenge yourself with a heavier set. Always start with lighter weights if you are unsure, or just starting an exercise program.
I'm using a set of 5 pound (2.25 Kg) and 8 pound (3.6kg) dumbbells

I’m 27, 219 pound, and diagnosed with PCOS and hypothyroidism. I heard that strength is one of the best workouts for women with my conditions, and this workout has been great! Love the length of the video and the warmup and cooldown, especially, a lot of workouts on RUclips don’t include those, but they’re super important! Thank you!
You are most welcome! So glad to hear that it's helpful! Keep up the great work :)
Keep up the exercise! From my own experience, exercise is number one in improving your well being, and if you are consistent, you will gradually improve your health. All the best ; )

I recently found you on RUclips and am so grateful. I find that your workouts are challenging yet doable for me. I just turned 70 and am hoping to stay active and healthy for the rest of my life and know I will need to be doing strength training, cardio, stretching and walking. Thank you for providing me the motivation and the fabulous variety of workouts with your calm and elegant style. Thank you!
such a lovely comment! I really appreciate that Lydia and I'm thrilled you are enjoying my channel :)
Recently discovered your workouts after osteoporosis diagnosis. Determined to keep my bones strong. This workout has been perfect for me and I wonder how often I should do it, and what additional regular strengthening could be done to complement it. Thank you for providing these videos!
great Laura! So glad you found me. Here is a link to all my osteoporosis friendly workouts: ruclips.net/p/PLdAl5SsVkdodnQgh9DSmuuIM2S_labr4K@@lauradimascio2346
I just turned 70 and just found these workouts. I'm hoping they will help to improve my balance too.
Now that I've had a chance to try so many of your workouts I'd list this in my top 5 favorites. Great that it's all standing and a full 30 minutes.
Glad you like this one too :)
I would love to know your top 5 favs! I also do a variety of them. Love the challenging ones.
great workout! loved the fact that the workout didn't consist of repetitive lunges and squats. Too hard on the joints now. Gentle workout but I felt like my muscles were working hard. Started over a month ago trying for 3-4 workouts a week. Appreciate the variety of workouts to choose from. Easy to dedicate 30 minutes to my fitness every day. Thank you!
Glad you liked it!! I love your positive attitude Wendy, keep up the great work :)
Perfect excercise for strength, balance, and core workout. Thank you for all of your amazing training videos.
You're so welcome! I'm thrilled you are liking them Kristine :)
I love working out with you ! I'm 73 & have osteoporosis but I always feel good after working out with you. I watch you from
FRANCE & really would like to thank you from the bottom of my heart.❤
Wonderful! Thanks so much Laura 🤩
Excellent video. More like this please.
Glad you enjoyed it 🤩
Thank you for a great work out,I am 73 ,live alone in the uk I try to do a workout every morning, I love the fact that you don’t have a clock in video,counting down 🫣🫣
Wonderful Ann! I'm so glad you like it. Thanks for the feedback regarding the countdown clock. I have many viewers who request one, but I feel it can be distracting.
Enjoyed it very much, second time doing it
Great Mary!
Great workout. Thanks for making a senior video with weights that doesn’t hurt my knees.
You're so welcome Lorna :)
Sehr, sehr gut!
I really enjoyed this one!
Yay, thank you Michelle 🤩
Just did this workout it’s fantastic thank you Lauren !
So glad!
I really liked this one...how there was a dynamic component of multiple areas being worked and the balance challenge this created as well...really a good work out...never boring and always satisfying! Thank you!
Glad you enjoyed it! Thanks Candace :)
I'm grateful this workout popped up in my search today. So many senior strength workouts include lunges and squats with no modifications. My knees can no longer handle lunges or squats. This workout was perfect! The right length and the right amount of challenge. This will now be part of my weekly strength-training routine. Thank you!
You're so welcome! I have many more videos that are also knee friendly. I’ll be putting them all in a new playlist soon so they are easy to find 🤩
Loved it! Thanks so much
Glad you enjoyed it! 🤩
great workout and thank you.
Glad you liked it! 🤩
Loved this challenging workout and appreciate the no squats and no lunges. I thought the extra time for stretching at the end really helped me to relax after working all of those muscles!❤
Excellent! So glad to hear it's a good workout for you Theresa :)
73 getting back to exercise and I DID IT!!!!
Awesome 🙌🏻
@@hew195050 keep going…I’m 72 and actually very underweight and have a rare spinal disease. Lauren’s workouts are perfect for me and I can still use 8 lb weights. I need to build up strength and gain weight while everyone wants to lose weight🤣.
Lauren working out with you has been exactly what I needed. I had fallen back to doing almost no exercising at all, with the exception of walking whenever I would go out and do errands. It has been approximately 7 weeks since I came across your videos on RUclips. Thanks again, for all of the wonderful workout videos that you have made, and have taken the time to post here. I have thoroughly and truly enjoyed each and every one that I have participated in. I have since then scheduled a 3 day weekly routine for myself...Hooray!!! 🥰
Hooray indeed! Good for you! thanks so much and keep up the awesome work :)
Great workout Lauren! Have to admit it was a difficult one for me. Will try same workout again next month and see if i can do better😊 Looking forward to tomorrow's workout❤🥰🇨🇦Sharon.
You've been working so hard Sharon. I'm proud of you and your positive attitude :)
Awesome workout ❤
Thank you! 🤗
Wonderful work out! Appreciate all the variety of workout sessions. I felt like my muscles worked very hard for each session! Thanks Lauren Senior Shape
Wonderful! you are very welcome :)
Adding my thanks and appreciation for a great knee-friendly, floor-free strength workout!
You're so welcome! Glad you enjoyed it Leah :)
I was looking for a standing strength routine and I'm so happy I found your practice! You make it perfectly paced with a great variety of movements. I appreciate your calm helpful cues. I love this channel!
Yay! Thanks so much 🙌🏻🤩
Loved this workout Lauren. Really put me through my paces, but felt a sense of achievement when finished. Will probably be a bit sore tomorrow, but I'll do them again then if I'm not too sore. Thankyou for the time you take to do these videos to help us oldies stay agile, fit and balanced. Also love the smiling, encouraging way you guide us through each exercise video. I hope life is treating you well. Have a great day.
Great Lynn! I'm thrilled you love it and I hope you have a great day as well :)
There isn’t one video that I don’t like. Loved the changeup of the weights and the combo moves. my mother’s building which is full of seniors uses your videos for their chair yoga. I think it’s great.!!!!
I think that's great too! Thanks so much Esperanza :)
I love the compound moves. In the moment you don't think you will manage to the end of the 45 seconds but then you remember you are working everything and it pushes you to keep going. I also like being able to switch out the weights in accordance with what my body can 'do' on the day. Your workouts are so calming, even the really tough ones like this. Thank you so much Lauren ❤xxx
Great job Virginia! I love that you listen to your body 🤩
Great workout! Thank you! Have a blessed week!
Thanks! You as well :)
Wow Lauren! This was great. I leveled up and down with weights following you. Thanks for keeping us strong! 💪🏾❤️
My pleasure Lisa, nice job !!
I’m so glad I found your channel! I’m in my early 40s and realized when I tried to do Just Dance with my kids the only thing that was popping and locking were my kneecaps! This is a perfect workout for me right now ❤
lol! You're too funny. Happy to have you working out with me :)
Another great workout! Always love knee-friendly and compound moves. This one is now in my Watch Later group to be repeated. Thanks Lauren!! Joanne
Wonderful! So glad it's a good workout for you Joanne :)
Thank you for keeping your workouts interesting by introducing new workouts! I’ve been working out for a couple of years with you and still really enjoy it!
Happy to hear it! I hope to never be boring :)
Just a lovely strength workout and I appreciate less stress on the knees - thank you!
You're so welcome Theresa :)
it was a beautiful routine. As a senior, I appreciate a routine that although gentle, my body feel the workout. Thanks!
You're so welcome! Glad you liked it and got a good workout Mercedes :)
Day 3 of week 2 of my 3 week Knee Friendly Challenge with 12 lbs weights… feeling great! Thank you, Lauren. 😅😅😅😅😅😅😅
You bet Carol, have a great week :)
I am 74 and have tried many different workouts on RUclips. Lauren's are so good and varied and easy to follow. Thoroughly recommend them. Thank you Lauren
I appreciate that Angela!!
Loved this! I don't know which I liked better the workout or the stretches! You have the best stretches before and after the workout. Most channels spend very little time on it. It's the FIRST time I've ever been able to lift weights and not have pain in my neck, shoulders and hip flexors-thank you!
Wonderful! I'm thrilled you love it Hina :)
Loved this workout! This didn’t even feel like 30 minutes! Thank you! 😊
So glad! 🙌🏻🤩
Прекрасные и доступные упражнения! Спасибо! Буду заниматься с вами. Мне 65 лет. Еще раз спасибо !
wonderful! Thank you and keep up the good work :)
This was great, my new favourite I think. My balance is awful so got the chair out. Will do this from now on thank you 😀🥵🙃
Glad you like it! There is no shame in getting the chair out either :)
Excellent workout for a 73 year old with reasonable fitmess. Thank you!
You're so welcome! Glad you like it :)
Really like this one! Like how you use 2 different weights! Gives a good challenge! Thank you for another great workout!!
You're so welcome Lelie!!
Thoroughly Enjoyed!
Awesome, thank you!
Great and gentle workout.
Glad you liked it!
I recently found your RUclips Channel, and as an older women in post menopause, I find the workouts a little challenging, but can do all of the exercises without worry of injury. I really enjoy your calm style and sweet disposition. I use your videos for my in-between workout days for strength training mostly, but find I am getting a bit of cardio as well. Thank you!
Wonderful Kay! Happy to have you working out with me, keep up the great work :)
Thank you as always, you are Awesome !!
Thanks Jen!
This was my favorite workout so far! So glad I found you on RUclips. Going on 3 weeks now. Thanks
Yay! Keep it up Stephanie :)
My wonderful work out friend Lauren that was just great a keeper however they all are you are the best thanks see you tomorrow
You're the best! Appreciate your support Sandra :)
Thank you! I love the compound movements! I did the FIRM workouts with weights and compound movements for many years and loved them! I can’t do them now that I am 65 with arthritis and Osteopenia. Please do more of these types of routines. 😊
Wonderful! Check out this video as well, I think you will like it: ruclips.net/video/ZINTLrr7W3E/видео.html
Hi Lauren, I found your workouts for seniors the other day and they are so much better than the senior workouts where they talk to us like children. I like the way you challenge us to lift more and develop better balance. I am 76 and have had some major surgeries, but I'm not ready to give up yet! I am determined to keep up and build muscle and balance. Thank you 🙏
You're so welcome Jann! I'm glad you found my channel as well :) Keep up the good work and your positive attitude, I love it!
"Progress not perfection". Thank you for these words of wisdom today. My progress is that I increased to slightly heavier weights. Even if they aren't heavy to some, they are heavier than where I started.
Definitely progress! Great job Carlene 🙌🏻
Hi Lauren you are amazing and I think I am addicted to your workouts and the very kind and empathetic energy that you bring in. Loads of best wishes ❤
Thank you so much!! That’s a good thing to be addicted to 🤩
Awesome workout! Thank you!❤❤
Glad you liked it!! Thanks Helen 🤩
Thanks Lauren!! This workout was and is just perfect...variety and compound movements. I also appreciate more standing workouts with weights!!!
My pleasure Eve, glad it's a god workout for you :)
I agree with the compound moves on this one. I wasn't thinking about if I am almost done, instead, I was thinking of the next move. I liked switching out the weights as well for what my body can handle that day. Thanks Lauren! Oh, BTW it was easy on the knees too
Excellent! Glad it's a good workout for you :)
I love your workouts and the weekly workout plans! And thanks for the knee friendly exercises!
You're so welcome! Thanks for working out with me Kim :)
Loved it! I used 2 and 3 kgs dumbbells! Please do some more mix and match heavyweights workouts! Thank you Lauren for everything! ❤️❤️❤️❤️
You're so welcome! Great job with the 2&3kgs :)
What a good workout with so many elements. It must have taken you ages to put it together. Much appreciated.
You're so welcome! Thanks for your appreciation Martin 🤩
I would just like to let you know I love your workouts and have been going through early menopause & your workouts are helping me on an emotional level 😊,
I was working out too hard & caused myself some pain before I found your channel.
Thankyou ❤️
You're a breath of fresh air and have a lovely nature about you.✌️ I love the stretches before & after each workout too...
💯😍💪🇦🇺
Thank you so much Shar, I appreciate your kind words! So glad you are enjoying my workouts, keep up the great work too :)
I am so grateful to you Lauren you are a great coach, thank you for all the workout you give us
You're welcome Lydia, I'm grateful for you as well :)
Great workout as usual, Lauren! Thank you so much 😊
Yay! Thank you Maria :)
For those of us with arthritis in our knees, this is just what the doctor ordered! Thank you so much, Lauren!
So glad! You are very welcome Jeanne :)
Thank you! Loved this workout!
Thanks Melodie, happy to hear it :)
Love this workout because I definitely need knee friendly.
I am so glad you love it Susan! Here is the link to all my knee friendly workouts: ruclips.net/p/PLdAl5SsVkdodiEjhsYCU5F2O_8KvL9RwV
I love this video because you were going in between two different sets of weight sizes. It also encouraged me to challenge myself in the same way!! Thanks so much Lauren❤
Yay! Love that you are challenging yourself 🙌🏻
Замечательные занятия, хороший темп, приятный голос, спасибо!
Glad you enjoyed it 🤩
Day 3 and final day of my 1st week of a 3 week challenge with your knee friendly workout video. Love this workout… still very challenging with my 12 lb weights! 💪💪💪💪
I bet it is! Great job Carol :)
Great! Youre the best for us seniors❤
Thank you! 😃 I appreciate that Loretta!!
This was awesome!! Thank you!!
Thanks so much Linda!!
LAUREN!!! I haven' t been able to work out for weeks due to a severe respiratory infection and my body knows it!!! Was so excited to be well and join two of your sessions for about an hour. I feel so renewed and refreshed...beyond happy to be able to work out with your sessions!!! Wishng you a best ever New Year...and as always, thanks!!!! Callie
Yay! Happy to have you back Callie! Happy 2024 :)
So glad I found your channel! Finally something that I can do that's slow and controlled instead of fast and crazy! It's joint friendly but challenging enough for me as I'm in my 30's and just starting to workout again after having kids and everything. So thank you for this! 😊
Great Cheryl! I'm so glad you found me too :)
Same here, thank you 🙏
Excellent workout. Time duration and knee friendly is soooo welcoming. Thank you
My pleasure Radisha! Glad you enjoyed it :)
A great workout. Thank you for working the lower body without squats and lunges. Appreciate the warm up and cool down. Thank you
You're so welcome Stacy :)
Great workout before a morning walk. Thanks for all!!
You're so welcome! Thanks Ellen 🤩
I am so happy that I found you on RUclips, I love each of your workouts, thank you so much for sharing??
Great Judy! I'm so happy you found me as well :)
Thank you so much. Good work out no strained on my knees! I am 64 yrs old and my knees can bother me. Please do more of these videos!
I just filmed a new one like this yesterday :) Look for it in a few weeks :)
Great start to the week Lauren see you on the next one 🙋💐
Thanks as always Julie :)
I like the option for 2 weights and the stretch was perfect in length, pace; leaves me feeling challenged w/o injury, and energized for the day!
Awesome! Love that Karen, I hope you have a great day :)
Washington Post article today: It’s never too late to lift weights: Older bodies can still build muscle
In comments someone asked, "I'm 66. How do I start?" I replied that RUclips has lots of options for seniors and/or beginners and mentioned this channel as an example. I hope you get some new visitors from that!
Thanks for today's workout! I feel it!
That's great Sue! Thank you so much for the shout out :)
Great workout! Thank you!
Glad you liked it Pam!!
I feel fabulous!!!! Thanks for another great workout that is safe for the knees
Love that Elizabeth! You are very welcome :)
I have recently found you, me as well :-) and I am really grateful for your channel. I've absolutely loved this routine. I appreciate there is no music. Nice and powerful. I am 54, thanks God in good health conditions but I was needing some senior type routines, gentle but functional. Thanks and greetings from Spain.
Thank you Silvia! So glad you are enjoying my workouts 🤩
You never disappoint! Love this one!
So glad! Thanks Pamela 🤩
I made it through with 12lb weights! Feeling accomplished! Thanks again!!! 😅😅😅😅😅
Amazing! I’m so proud Carol 👏🏼👍🏻💪🏼🙌🏻
10 days ago I worked out with this video & this morning's workout was so much easier. I've found, that I'm less clumsy & have better balance than a few months ago.
Wonderful! Way to go Diane!
thanks for standing strength and cardio--two classes completed
Great job Laurie!
Great strength workout for people with hurting knees!😊
Yes! That's what I was going for! Thanks Gloria :)
This was a brilliant workout. I feel after doing this one for a while it could lead into doing squats and lunges having built the strength. Thank you Lauren.
Absolutely! Thanks Karyn 🙌🏻
Wow! Tough, but Awesome! Used 10lb weights throughout! Thank you to all here that served our great Country to insure my Freedom and God Bless those Fallen Soldiers and Their Families. Feeling Grateful. Thank you Lauren! 😅😅😅😅😊😊😊
You bet Carol! Nice job with 10lbs!!!
I made it, thanks to you Lauren! Having a great time working out with you!
Woo hoo! Fantastic job Karen :)
Hi Lauren, I love this routine! Even though I have no trouble getting to the floor, nor with squats, I found this challenging yet also doable. And I look forward to the time I can use heavier weights, it's good to have a goal!
Great job Elizabeth! I'm so glad you challenged yourself :)
I love the all standing workout!❤
Great Cathy! Another all standing knee friendly video coming Monday :)
Love it! Great workout
Awesome! I'm thrilled you love it Lorraine! Thank you :)
This was a great full body workout that I appreciated doing in the standing position. My body went through some movements it didn’t know it could do! I feel great!
Wow! Great job Mary! I love that you feel great :)
GREAT STUFF, as a Sport Scientist, genuinly
Thanks David, I appreciate it!
Wonderful 🙏💗thank you!!
Awesome! thank you Sandra :)
This really helps with my overall strength. I believe at my age that I have sarcopenia ( my muscles are obviously smaller and weaker)and I do have (by diagnosis), osteopenia. So this is important to me. Thank you so much. I want to be stronger, maintain mobility and flexibility and improve balance and prevent falls. So thank you many times. Veronica :)
You are most welcome Veronica! All the workouts on my channel are what you are looking for. Keep up the great work :)
Tank you from Germany, for this new Video. My muscles will love your exerciaes 😃👋👍
wonderful Ralf! I'm so glad you love it :)
I did this again today. Great knee friendly all standing routine especially after a rigorous hike. Loved it....again!
Wonderful! Great job doing it after a hike!
Great back to workout after a 2 week vacation ❤
Awesome! Hope you had a nice trip :)
