    Boxer and bodybuilder here. This works so good for light days and recovery in general after heavy workouts. Definitely not only for elders, also for meatheads! Thanks Ma'am.

      Lol, I'm so glad this works well for your light workout days. Thanks so much for taking the time to comment. If you enjoyed this one, you might like more in the 'intermediate level' playlists. I create 3 levels of workouts: gentle, beginner and intermediate, and categorize them all in the playlists.

Just to help you out, I create 3 levels of workouts (gentle, beginner and intermediate) and categorize all of the workouts into the playlists. My suggestion is to try to get into the habit of exercising every day. If you have days where you're exhausted, choose a gentle workout, and if you have more energy, choose a beginner level workout. I'd love to hear your progress as you continue if you wish to share it!

    Day 2: 180.6 (Still only did 15 min, but it went faster that yesterday. Also took a 45 mini walk midday. I think my food plan is eating more veggie & protein than carb & having no meat days.

If you enjoyed this one, you can find plenty more at this same level under the 'beginner level' playlists. As for arthritis, it's important to do what you can and to keep moving. My suggestion is to try out the different level workouts and see what feels right for you. If you want to lose weight, I would suggest at least 20-30 minutes of cardio a day, 2-3 days of strength training, and focus on eating healthy. I also have workout calendars on my website which you might find helpful (www.improvedhealthforseniors.com).

      Hi Christina, just to help you navigate the channel, I create 3 levels of workouts (gentle, beginner and intermediate) and categorize them all into the playlists. If you have back issues, stick with the gentle or beginner level workouts to see how your back feels. Ensure you wear shoes with good support, too and try to avoid twisting moves (just modify the move to something else if I'm twisting). You could definitely do this workout more than once a day if your back is happy with it.

      I'm so glad to read that you enjoyed this one out of all the other videos you tried. I always include a warm-up, cool-down and stretching UNLESS the video is an add-on. I sometimes create short cardio workouts for people to add onto other cardio or strength workouts (for example, if they just want an extra 10 minute cardio workout). I also create all-in-one workouts which include cardio, strength, balance and stretching within one workout. You can find all of the workouts categorized in the playlists and also on my website (www.improvedhealthforseniors.com). I hope you enjoy more of the workouts!

    Had so much fun with this workout. It was definitely arms day today. I did day 24 on the strength training before I saw this new one for cardio. My legs and arms do not want to coordinate with each other. I was laughing at myself each time I messed up. Loved the free style punching; no messing up on that one cuz I was all over the place! Have a great week-end and stay safe during this New Year's celebration.

      Don't worry about getting your arms as high as mine. If you're just starting out, start of slowly and do what you can.

I truly hope the workouts keep you coming back to continue to get as much movement as you're able to do.

    @IaintAI-m9d Год назад

    This is great for seniors just starting to get fit. And because of it's low impact on the body, as compared to jogging.
    If anyone is interested in picking up the pace, and get both your RHR, and Vo2max to elite level, then I suggest speed walking, and HIIT resistance training. My workout today averaged 91% of my max heart rate, for about 100 minutes. I should only be able hold that pace for a few seconds, or a minute. Therefore, it makes sense that both my RHR, and Vo2max are 53. I am 66. Ultimately, if you want more than just being able to be mobile, and not out of breath. Then I suggest dedicating yourself to a more challenging routine, once you are comfortable with this.
