    Hi, Lauren, I turned 84 last week and I feel fabulous. I’ve been working out with you for a year now and I’ve lost weight, my belly fat is disappearing and I just enjoy the challenge of trying to complete a workout with you. The stability ball has been the toughest one but I’m getting better. Thank you.

    Hello. Well I’m very pleased to have discovered you on RUclips. I’m 66 and like to do weights a couple of times a week, but every teacher seems manic and loud or thinks we are all 21!! 😆 I so enjoyed your calm and careful approach. Thank you very much. Glynis from Melbourne, Australia

I am now able to do 15 lb weights with this workout. You're very good at explaining what to do and have proper form. Your workouts are very challenging! Thank you!

    Thank you so much!!! This one was such a great balance of familiarity and new challenges. I’m a 50 year old cancer survivor (now cancer free) and your channel was my go-to during recovery from surgery. That was in early 2021 and I’m delighted to say you are still my go-to now. 😊 I initially started with your Pilates and stretching videos but quickly got deeper into the cardio and strength training workouts as well. You are a wonderful instructor and motivator. Thank you for always keeping things fresh and fun! -Rick

    Hi Lauren, I turned 79 on Sunday, and I just started working out with you. This is my third workout, and it was the hardest so far. I started with 1 pound weights on the recommendation of my doctor, which seems very wimpy, but by the end of the workout, I’m glad they’re only 1 pound. I’m looking forward to eventually working my way up to heavier weights and really enjoying working out with you. Thank you.

    This is one of my favorite strength workouts. I want others to know that your workouts are truly strength building. After 1.5 years of 2 times/week with your workouts, I can now do things that were too hard for me before. It works. It works because you offer challenging, but doable, workouts. I especially appreciate the frequent small reminders about form - it's easy to forget when you are working hard! Thanks!

    Hello Lauren. I've been doing your "Strength" Workout by Type. Only have 20 left to do of the 61 sessions. I'm 67 and have never enjoyed working out. My sister turned me on to your channel and I love it! The challenges of the 20-40 min workouts are perfect. I also love your approach in reminding us to keep our core engaged, proud chest, etc. I used 10 lbs for this workout. Keep it coming!

    I couldn't ask for anyone more to my liking to do workouts with! As a 58 year-old, new to weight-training, and overweight, your workouts are so good. I am feeling well challenged, yet enjoy the pleasant commentary from you, (including the reminders to keep the core engaged, tummy tucked, and knees bent, at appropriate moments!Thank-you for those!) I 've worked out with you 2-3 times per week for the last 6 weeks, and it has given me some new energy, and enthusiasm to do other things. I have only tried 4 differnt ones (focusing on strength training), but have liked them all. Thank-you so much, Lauren.

    To update you Lauren:
    I'm 3 1/2 wks post anterior rt. hip replacement & all movements, but floor exercises, have been lifted. I've even been cleared for recumbent bike.
    THIS workout was what I needed to challenge myself from fear of abduction hip movements.
    I wasn't able to do all of the "wood chop knee lift" move ( I crumbled after 2 on the rt. leg😢). I took a break and finished the rest.
    Again, thank you, Lauren, for your conscientious & innovative exercises. 😘

    I'm 66 and this is my second attempt at your strengthening workouts. Although a good challenge, your stretching is such that I have not experienced any pain afterwards. I like the music, your calm voice, the setting (colors, clean, fresh background), the 20 seconds to prepare in between movements. My osteoarthritic pains have gone away even after the first workout. Weight training is the best for arthritis (in my case). I look forward to trying all your other workouts. Thank you!

    Hi Lauren, I am really grateful for this video as I'm 60 years old and recovering from a trapeziectomy. With my hand in a cast, then splint for 6 weeks, then with a right hand and fingers that could barely move, I needed an exercise where I could still work the rest of my body, whilst protecting my hand. You always said to make the exercise our way and this was what I did, progressing the size of weight to use with my left and just moving my right arm in tune with the left, but no weight. In this way, and with a calorie controlled diet, I managed to lose 20 pounds and increase my muscle mass.
    Your video was a godsend, as I can't do floor work (difficult to get down and up with the bad hand) and I'm looking for more standing strength exercises in your videos. If you can recommend one, I'd be grateful. Thanks so much for your wonderful work.

    Whoa. I am humbled. I really had to "do me" and drop to 5 pounds for most of it. I had my quarterly phone check-in with my Accordant Care nurse yesterday who says "Well I know you're so good about exercising, but I always ask, how has your exercise been?" And I'm "uh ... yeah ... what exercise." I've just let things go recently and decided to get back to it yesterday with Pilates and a walk. Today I dialed in for weights and this looked perfect. It is a perfect workout but I'm so deconditioned! A big wakeup call for me. Thank you Lauren. 💙

    Hi Lauren, I;m 74 and have been doing pilates for 10 years, but have just discovered your workouts, What a great compliment to my regular routine. Definitely needed more cardio and the weight training. I;ve done 4 of your videos and can't thank you enough for this challenging but awesome workout.

    Hello! I've just discovered your channel and am SO glad I did. I am 42 years old, I need to lose a lot of weight and have just begun this journey of self care. This workout is really great, I will definitely check out your other videos. Thank you! This really felt like I was exercising, but I wasn't fearful about getting hurt...which I have been when trying to follow other trainers.

    At 69 I am new to this great channel. I have shoulder discomfort so will very carefully work up from 3lbs today to higher weights, body permitting (I'm sweating). Really enjoyed how quietly, gently and positively you gave instructions. Great job. I will do more. I love the stability ball routines and those with weights.

    Hello Lauren, I just found you today because I know I need to do strength training and at 73 I am not feeling as strong as I was when younger. I did your workout with 5 pound weights and kept up. I see you have a wonderful group of ladies who work out with you and I plan to join you. Thank you for a thorough work out!

    Hi Lauren, I am a 77 year old female and on February 1, 2024 I made a commitment to myself to begin an exercise program. I set my alarm for 5:15 am, take a cup of coffee back to bed, put on my exercise clothes and join you for the exercise workout for the day. I look forward to your exercise videos and see the results of this commitment to get strong. Thank you so much for this wonderful program- no gym membership and I can exercise comfortably in my own home. I enjoyed this workout, although challenging for me with the 8 lb. weights but I stayed with you.
    You are an amazing teacher and I am grateful for you.

    • @SeniorShapeFitness
      @SeniorShapeFitness  7 месяцев назад
