I'm 80 and I did 16 reps. I do yoga and exercise regularly. Thanks for the tip. I'll look for more of your videos. Marcia from California
Thanks for tuning in! Hope you enjoy our videos alongside your routine :)
Keep up the amazing work!
@@dancinggarden If you have strong legs you are way out in front…👏👏
Excellent!
@@dancinggarden You're a "Great Looking" 80 years old. You are an inspiration!
I've just found the Aussie version of Bob & Brad (the two most famous physiotherapists on the Internet - in their opinion). When you actually reach 55 or 65 or 75 and you suddenly realise that you cannot do the simple things like getting up off the loo let a lone a chair without support you have to stand up and take a long hard look at yourself in the mirror.
It is not just about how many or how few sit to stands you can do, it is the whole overall picture of your weight, diet and activity. Usually, first problem will be obesity and addressing that will help your overall health no end. Exercise, get out and walk in the park or the streets of the town, just move your backside on a regular basis. Park further away from the entrance to the supermarket for example.
I speak from experience as a 69 year old who let his body go through smoking, excessive alcohol and obesity. I had given up smoking more than two years ago, but only took control of my situation this March 2024. I stopped drinking alcohol completely, I adopted an intermittent fasting regime, cutting out all of the sugar heavy rubbish they push on you through advertisements on the TV and I started to do the very basic exercises as seen in this video albeit, nowhere as nibble as these two lads.
Nothing comes easy, if you want your health and your strength back then, you're going to have to work at it and you won't have the stamina to go at it like you may well have done in your younger years, just find what exercises you can do around the home, body weight squats, counter top push ups etc. before any requirement to visit a gym or buy expensive home fitness equipment even though, a set of resistance bands has helped me no end.
So where am I some 4 calendar months later - I lost some 12 kg. I can do counter top push-ups no problem, I can do some kneeling push-ups, but still can't do one proper push up. I can do planks 3 x 45 seconds with a 30 second rest in between and a whole host of other things I couldn't do back in March. I had been diagnosed with degenerative knee osteoarthritis a year ago with quite severe knee pain and the future didn't look rosy, but that has completely disappeared without any necessary prescription drugs and for some reason or other as I proved leading up to Christmas, that drinking beer aggravated the condition.
Okay, I've written a book here, but one day I will document my journey on my own channel this is just to say that mostly, we are in control of our own health destinies, but you need to decide whether you're prepared to put the work in with your exercise and diet OR get weaker and require a stick or walker, your choice.
@@lyarrastark6254 Why would you wish to push another 'fad' diet on me! I believe in a healthy BALANCED diet. Thank you for your concern.
@@RobertsBulgaria I'm not pushing anything at you.
Chaffee and Berry? Has the first one stopped screeching "plants are trying to kill you" and has Ken Berry built that multi million dollar empire with his sassy Mrs by promoting carnivore as the only magic pill you will EVER need? Don't answer. @@lyarrastark6254
Bob and Brad rock
Great entry. You've accomplished a lot in a short period of time. An inspiration to anyone starting from a similar state of health and fitness.
65 and did 23. That will be a starting point. I am determined to improve!
Absolutely, keep up the good work!
@@lindab5789 Never quit…👏👏🇦🇺🇦🇺
The kid needs to see you then
67 years old and did 31. My routine 5 mornings per week is 1 min star jumps, 1 min squats, 1 min static running and another minute each of squats and star jumps. I got this from the late Dr. Michael Moseley several years ago. The two days I don’t do that, I play 18 holes of golf on quite a hilly course.
I think there rep for age is really low, like you I'm mid 60's and creamed it easy got bored after I hit 30 with 10 secs to go ;)
Sounds like you have a great routine going! Keep up the hard work and enjoy those golf swings :)
@@jefb1497So you did 30 rips in 20 seconds from sitting strait down on the chair each time. Sure….
Got to 16 sit to stands in 30 secs! (We have the same Ikea chairs you use). Woo Hoo! Age 72. This is thanks to your excellent strength programs. So much stronger than when I started 2 years ago but I know I can't be complacent - it goes quickly if you don't keep working on it. Thank you to everyone at Be Mobile - life is much more manageable with better strength and fitness.
This is so great to hear. Your progress is certainly a result of your hard work and dedication. Well done, and keep up the good work you've been doing!!
hello I m a 73 year old man. I just did this test on standing and sitting and managed to do 26 with a little bit of heavy breathing after it I am delighted.
Well done!
Only 9 / 59years and I m happy about it. 17years of inflammatory arthritis, hip impigment, unstabile knee, L5S1 herniated disc, pain standing and walking made me older than I really am. My legs are fine, I am biking every day but my joints are not healthy.
Well done! It's great to hear that you are overcoming your barriers to exercise on a daily basis. Keep up the hard work, stay consistent and progress at our own pace!
Finally someone gets straight to the point, exercises and sets and reps! No BS! Thank you guys in the USA! Getting ready to get some weight's again and into powerlifting! 5x5 my go to workouts! :) Three months and back to my HS weights' Big 4 compound movements! :)
Thank you for the feedback, and we hope you enjoy the return to your training regime!
The gentlemen sound Australian to me.
Great video well done guys! I'm 68 next birthday. Last night I did 160 bodyweight squats fast and non-stop (my PB is 225) This morning I did 8 x 3 minute rounds on a 150 lb punchbag with a 40 second rest period between rounds. I regularly do 45 - 52 fast non-stop press-ups and 32-36 fast dips n/s. I've been training nearly every day from 1973 on. I just love it, it's my life and I never want to stop.
Impressive numbers!!
That's amazing! I've screenshotted that as something to aim for now I'm about to start training again at 63 after a 20 year break. I must be nuts 😂
@@steverabbits Go for it. You will be shocked how quick it will come back... Like you've never been away. Well done and good luck
@@jimt7851 that's the sort of thing I needed to hear, I've been wondering for years how quickly it might come back, 'muscle memory' and all that jazz. Fingers crossed
@@steverabbits Just start with bodyweight squats with a slightly wider foot stance. Feet at 10 to and ten past the hour. Sumo style. To start just do 10 -20 then every few days add a few extra. You will be shocked what happens when testosterone kicks in properly... Record your results on a calendar and you will beat your PB's every single time.
60 years old - did a 232.5kg squat, 167.5kg bench, 255kg deadlift in drug tested compettition. I weigh 110kg
@@pvbarbell1904 bravo. 👏
Awesome ❤
Great numbers!
Beast at any age mega impressive
Beast.
Couldn’t do any, still stuck in the chair eating doughnuts
Haha 😅
Oh! dear! I think you might be Nursing home material before too long!
Thanks guys. I'm 66 and did 15. So I could do some more practice. Hubbie did 22. He is 74.
Great numbers! We can always improve, and consistency is key with exercise.
Did 26! I’m 73 years young!
Well done!!
did 26 also, 67
Same at 66
I'm 73 and only did 24😞. I must be a slacker. I've got some work to do.
I repeated and did 26 this time. Thanks @fayton4670 for the motivation. I feel better now.😊
i did 15 STS in 30 seconds. I'm 73 (nearly 74) and thanks to the strength training sessions, I'm pretty pleased with that.
Great work! Keep up the hard work you've been doing :)
Excellent. 16 sit to stand in 30 seconds. I will check the chair height. 70 years.
Very useful. Thank you. JJ
Well done!!
Age 58, did 21. This is after doing bulgarian squats earlier today along with back hyperextensions for hamstrings. I could probably have gone faster.
Great work! Keep up the good work :)
I'm 77 and I just came inside from a 12 miles bicycle ride and I walked 5 miles early this morning. I just saw your video and tried it. 18 but I can do a lot better if I do it fresh in the morning.
Absolutely a great score especially after your hard day of work!
I do three 30 second high intensity intervals using box squats where my behind touches the chair and then I stand up. I do 32 box squats per interval. I do this workout three days per week. I feel that my legs are stronger now.
Great to hear you are feeling stronger! Keep up the good work :)
@@bemobilephysio Thank you!
I did 15 and am 76 years. Had a total knee replacement 4 months ago and the other knee will be done later this year. Good test to know, thanks. The targets seem a touch low for me, but then I'm pretty active and light weight so maybe 15 is not so great and I'll aim for more).. I usually do sit to stand on the 2nd step of my stairs (about 300mm ish) ... and slowly to challenge the muscles.
That's great! Keep up the good work with your exercises, stay active and best of luck with your rehab :)
61 and just did 33 in 30 and 55 in 60. Been doing BFR for a couple of years as I have one bad knee and it is very effective for mimicking similar results I used to get lifting much heavier weights but without the stress on the knee.
Thank you for sharing your experience! Keep up the good work :)
I did a 100
I can't stop hearing the Bob and Brad theme song now guys ❤😂
Haha! Thanks for tuning in :)
73 here and I did 19 in 30 seconds. Riding bike and hiking has helped stave off father time.
Great job!
age 74 and did 25. Regular cycling (avg 30-60kms per ride 3 x / week), golfing and yoga done.
Great stuff! Keep going :)
Got in 20 in 30 seconds - age 66.....very happy with that and thanks for all the exercises to get me here
That's great to hear. Keep up the good work you've been doing!
thanks for the great video. 36 at 59. Please note I strength train 3x a week and currently squat 225x3...and on no medications.
My elderly friends, strength training can help with quality years in your life...please consider trying it...and may the Lord grant the good health.
glad you shared with us how great you are
Thank you for sharing! Sounds like you have a great training regime going - keep up the good work !
@@sjefbeekmans8070 everyone who shares is great.
I do qigong, tai chi, yoga, Pilates, resistance, weights, stick mobility and often do these exercises in the hydro pool, squats, lunges, leg raises, calf raises, curtsey lunges and pistol squats are easier and low impact on my joints in the water, I vary my daily exercises so it doesn’t get boring. 65 years young I try to do 30-50 squats in the pool with ankle weights.
Moving is the key to life and longevity.
We absolutely agree - moving is key to longevity! Keep up the good work you've been doing :)
I'm 63, worst shape of my life, overweight and have not trained in more than 20 years, plus I severally injured my left knee meniscus 11 weeks ago and for quite a while was unable to walk unaided. I did 22 reps. When the NHS physio tested my leg strength 5 years ago when I was 58 (while I was being assessed for a torn rotator cuff for some reason) I had to perform a sitting leg extension one leg at a time while he resisted me, he said he'd never tested anyone my age with legs that strong. I'm not sure I believe him tbh because by my standards I am weak nowadays. Can't recall my squat or leg press weights but I could Bench 130kgs at 42 years of age so I was reasonably strong all over. Anyway at 63¾ I am about to start training again so wish me luck 😂 (hope my knee holds out) 😬
Your experience with exercise and strength training will certainly be of help as you get back into training. Start at a tolerable and manageable level and focus on staying consistent!
62 and I managed 24 - I remember doing this test about a year ago and could only manage about 14, so the exercise I’ve been doing and getting active must be working.
Wow, great progress!
13 at 74 yrs. Thankyou for videos
Great job! Thanks for tuning in :)
64 and 30 reps. I was a 600lb squater and deadlifter in my 20's; lifting regularly for last 15 years after mid life neglect
It's great to hear that you've been so consistent with your training. Keep up the good work!
69 yrs old, leg day yesterday but did 20 Thanks that was fun!
Amazing! Well done :)
I'm 80, weigh 88kg and strength training since early teens. Scored 34, but realized I could go faster halfway through.
In past years focused on heavy (for me) composite exercses viz farmer's' carry, deadlifts and squats (2 x 48kg Rogue kettlebells) and, to a lesser extent shoulder presses. Also "overcoming" isometrics" with iso strap.
Longterm knee and elbow injuries from my younger days as an amateur wrestler - no problems whatsoever now and shed knee support years ago.
Thank you for sharing your story! Keep going with your strength training :)
I did 100
74 and did 17 in 30 seconds thanks to Be Mobile
Great work! Now let's keep the work going :)
63 (for a few more months) - did 18. I figure I would do better if I didn't JUST FINISH eating lunch and hadn't been trying out different kinds of leg exercises (like split lunges). Will try again tomorrow!
Still a great number, let us know how you go!
Got to 12. I am 80. That is less than a year ago. I am sitting at the lap top way too much!! I watched all your build up tips. Thanks.
It's still a great result. Stay consistent with your exercises, and we can look forward to a re-test down the road :)
firstly the depth of the squat depends on the length of your leg from knee to the floor and not travel past mid foot ,parallel or just below. and a box squat is paused and your back is upright . im 71 and squat over 100 kg for 10 reps ,leg press 355 kg for 10 reps ,im 198 cm tall. i think im very strong for my age.
Thanks for the message Garry. This video is referencing a standardized test (the 30s Sit-to-Stand), not a box squat variation. It sounds like you are going well with your strength training - keep up the hard work!
Ok young fellows.
I just finished my workout in my gym which I have done at least 4 to 5 days a week for over 40 years
after I finished today including dead lifts and squats and also barbell hand rows.
I found your program and I just finished 40 sit ups not touching the chair with no problem
and guess what I am 75 years old.
Keep up the great work!
You guys look great for being over 55
Thank you for the message!
We do also have physios of a range of ages at our company, many do in-home physio and also run groups up in our studio.
Due to availability at this stage our online content just happens to be filmed by our young physios, however hopefully in the future, we may have some more people of other ages in our online content.
I'm 69 and have been athletic my entire life. Been weight training since I've been 12 years old. However, been dealing with neuropathy in my feet and lower legs for seven years. Any ideas on exercising with this condition. Not stopping my weight training just want to make sure I'm not making it worse.
It's difficult for us to provide specific advice without assessing you in person. Depending on the cause of peripheral neuropathy, different recommendations may be appropriate, but we believe in the benefit of continuing exercise and strength training for just about everyone.
If you are experiencing progressive worsening of your symptoms, we recommend that you consult your doctor regards an ongoing management plan. If you have more specific inquiries regarding this, please feel free to email us also - info@bemobilephysio.com.au
I managed 14 in 30 secs so quite pleased with that since I am 70 and had to stop exercising for the last month. About to start again and hope to get into the 50-59 bracket or better!😁
Great goal! Start at a tolerable intensity if you've been away from your exercises for the last month, and slowly progress again.
I am 65. MORNINGS: Mon and Wed 3k Run, including 10 sprints. Tue and Fri full body weight resistance routine including plyometrics, calisthenics. Thu swim 500m, abs every morning. AFTERNOONS: boxing Mon-Fri 12 rounds on heavy bag, 12 rounds shadow and footwork drills, 3 rounds on Double end bag, Spar on Monday, Mitt work on TUE, partner drills, Fri Assault bike sprints, Sat and Sun not a damn thing - recovery. Masters fight scheduled for NOV. I can knock out a hundred bodyweight squats all the way down in one go, 50 pushups, and 12 pull ups in one go. Swing a 16kg kettle bell 50 times a go. Age is a number. 182cm, 69kg.
In addition I walk 3k to and from train in Bangkok, and run three flights of stairs every morning
Nice! Keep up the good work!
I’m 64 and did 23. One minor testing problem here is the height difference that would lend different results. A taller person closer to six and a half to seven feet tall would be expected to complete fewer repetitions than a person closer to five feet tall.
You are absolutely right!
72 yrs did 23. In good shape but I recently started strength training after reading about muscle loss and realizing how much strength i have lost. Better late than never
Amazing job! It's great to hear that you've started strength training, and we absolutely agree - it's never too late!
I am 70 next year and did 24. Do a lot of hiking and have started a bit of running.
Fantastic, keep it up!
I'm 74 and did 20 reps. Piece of cake!
Nicely done!
28 reps ,62 yrs old worked out since age 19.
Impressive!
After my back surgery, my P.T. Showed me this exercise. It’s too easy for me so I now hold a 45 lb plate and rep out around 30 in a minute at the gym.
Great progress! Keep it up :)
27 in 30 seconds for 76 yrs old. I must be ok. I try to be not too comfortable with daily activities. I walk up and down the stairs, carry a basket instead of a trolley when shopping and I refuse to get a lazy boy or a too soft couch. Pay attention to what I eat and do exercises. I just feel lucky that I still have decent mobility and mental capacity.
Sounds like you are on the right track! Keep up the good work you've been doing, and let us know if we can be of any help any time :)
26 in 30 sec. Helps that I live on a hill and always climb stairs two at a time. Turning 78 next month.
Great work! Keep going with your routine :)
Hi! I’m a 70-year old male and I managed 23 sit-to-stand reps in 30 seconds on a 45.7cm Rogue bench. Odd thing is that I don’t consider my legs particularly strong.
It's a great result! Keep up your strength training :)
I think I’m good. At the gym this morning , I did 4x8 squats with 325 lbs. Then 3x10 leg curls at 80 lbs. I will be 60 in September.
Sounds like you have a great regime going - keep it up!
59 yrs, just tried it for the first time.. 24 reps. So gym work 3-4x a week pays off. 😂
The best against my knee and hip pain which I had last year to really big levels was regular gym work plus changing to barefoot feet (I walk 8-10km a day with my hunting dog). Zero knee and hip pain since then.
Keep going with your strength training! Well done :)
65 years old and did 20 reps, but I go to the gym twice a week and swim freestyle 3 times a week.
Sounds like you have a good routine going! Keep it up :)
I’m 69 and did 24 reps without pushing to max. I’m a cyclist and suspect most people on here exercise regularly, so we aren’t really the target. I also have quite a steep garden. At my recent birthday celebration, several people my age struggled with the 20 stairs down to the barbecue on the terrace. Only the cyclists went further down over rough grass to the bonfire.
That's great! Keep up the good work :)
I suspect that the decline in muscle mass and strength after age 30 in studies is due to the decline in exercise during those years as compared to earlier years and not merely a result of age. I submit that someone who exercises more during the decade will usually see an increase in leg strength instead of a decrease.
I know someone who is age 76, weight 170 lbs., and did 4 reps of leg press with 1,000 lbs. This is an increase in strength compared to the previous 2 decades. This was apparently due to regular weight training.
I agree, because we do know that strength increases with intense weight training never completely stop, they just slow down in rate.
@@kirkdarling4120 It's my belief that human potential, physically and mentally, is actually greater than many think. When those in the health field who create expectations and images according to age, however, it's unfortunate since people vary greatly. Those who live a healthy lifestyle and are older might actually be much stronger than most who are perhaps 20 years younger.
Living a healthy lifestyle with exercise and proper diet can affect the quality of life regardless of longevity, potentially reducing or avoiding many health issues.
The rate of decline increases with age, but it is absolutely prevented (and reversed) with regular strength training. You are absolutely right in that a regular exercise regime will result in an increase in leg strength!!
I'm 66 and do 3 sets of squats with a 15 lb dumbbell. Set 1- 20 reps, set 2- 25 reps set 3- 30 reps. I think my legs are decently strong.
That's great to hear! You are on the right track - keep up the good work!
22@65 yuss!
Thanks for the encouragement to have a pop
Well chuffed 🎉
Thank you for watching and participating!
I use the Mother Goose cue..Mother Goose has her eggs on the chair and of course ever so gently sits on them and gently comes off of them/the chair. She just will not damage her eggs!
Great way to control the movement!
Age 77, did 15. Perhaps made a little easier as my chair is 2cm higher than yours - but then, I do have COPD/Emphysema to balance that out! My lungs have to work as hard as my legs.
Great work, it sounds like you were able to challenge yourself just right!
I am 80 and just tried this cold.
I did 11 reps, and I was not trying to be very fast.
At this speed I could easily do quite a few more. Next time I will go for speed.
I try to go for a walk every day of about 2 km (weather permitting), so I think my legs are ok.
Now I am more concerned about upper body and core strength. Also, I need to lose a significant amount of weight.
Walking is a great way to stay physically active, but we recommend complimenting this further with a strength training routine. Sign-up for our video-series to start! www.bemobilephysio.com.au/free-fitness-videos-over-55
I’ve been doing ‘box’ squats with 2 x 5 lb dumbbells doing curls at the same time. I usually go for 50 reps, body angled but close to 90 degree bend at the knee. Anything wrong with doing 50 reps? Also, I discovered TRX suspension straps which are great squat support. Trying to get my Kazakh squat back on both sides dealing with right knee injury hampering getting fully down and back out; the TRX is super helpful for this training.
It sounds like you have a good routine going, and that's great to hear.
Generally, we do recommend that you slowly start to increase the weight used to further challenge your muscles at a lower repetition range. This is better known to help facilitate muscle mass and bone density increase!
I'm 65 and have been crossfitting since I was 54 (11 years). I got 28.
Nicely done!
Oh I'm in good shape with strong legs 19/20 in 30 sec.
A 77-year-old Swede.

I’m 71 and did 19, and that’s with sciatica.
Great job!
I was impressed with VES for my eval.
Thanks for watching and following along!
Interesting but you both use your backs too much in getting up. Use a wider stance to put more load on and build the legs. (For information, I do STRICT front squats - with a light weight - with a brief pause at the bottom to develop quads, hips and calves to good effect.)
Thank you for the suggestion!
Thank YOU. I do hope it is of help to you and others. By the way, please substitute the more precise "glutes" for "hips" in my previous message.
I am 61 and not an extreme sports person, i just so a bit of pilates and walking. And i did 26 reps. I actually think your schedule is a bit optimistic.
This is a standardized test capable of assessing a wide variety of individuals with different fitness levels. It's great that you scored 26! Keep up the good work you've been doing :)
13 sit to stand 80 yrs
Nice job!!
I'm 76 and did 14. Not great but not bad. I rode 114 miles (183km) on my bike over the past 6 days. None today.
That's amazing! Well done.
Age 65 and managed 23 in 30 seconds
Nicely done!
Just found your Channel awesome imma going to try that see how I do I’m 76 years young lol ❤
You can do it! Let us know how you go :)
Not to be too critical but the guy doing the demo certainly didn't sit upright for each rep. His torso was leaning forward, which shortens the time for each rep.
Thanks for the feedback!
HI Beemers, I did 21 in 30 seconds, and could have kept going! I'm 69. Thanks Be Mobile. :)
Fantastic number! Great work :)
Nice, I did 21 as well in 30 seconds at age 68.
Of course you probably could have done 200 in 30 seconds.
Centimeters and bottoms.. no Americanisms here! keeping it aussie is so refreshing I 👍 and subbed!
Thank you so much for the support! We'll be sure to keep it Aussie :)
Did 25 I'm 66, on the leg press machine 200kg 😊
Amazing! Keep up the good work :)
74…and I push 500 lb ( 12 reps ) in the leg press twice a week…..I feel great….
Amazing! Keep up the hard work!
18 in 30 seconds, age 58, certainly room for improvement here !
Always, hope you give the exercises a go :)
@@bemobilephysio I'm doing the exercises 😊
I did 17 and I'm 62
Seems like more of an aerobic exercise than a leg strength exercise.
The 30s Sit-to-Stand test is a great measure of lower body strength and capacity. We don't recommend using it as an exercise tool!
I am 61 and did 48..just kidding, I am in the range. Those that did over 20....you didn't actually sit down, you just touched and jumped back up.😅
Thanks for giving the test a try! Great work
I did 31. I am 59 haven't been working out for the past two months and have a bad back . So it kind of seems like those chart numbers are a bit low , not trying to be mean just wondering where you got those numbers from.
The 30s Sit-to-Stand test is a standardized measure of leg strength and endurance for older adults! Great work on the test, and we hope you are getting back on track with your training regime :)
@@bemobilephysio Thanks, I am back at it and appreciate that you guys are trying to help people. The sit to stand test numbers bother me because it is such a low bar to clear and might give people the impression that their legs are strong enough and therefore not strive to improve.
I’m 60 and I did 30. I can deadlift 107 kilograms 4 reps.
Great stuff. Love to hear it :)
I am 55, when i do this exercise with 50 kg additional weight from a lower box , how counts the reps?
This is a standardized test done without any additional weights. It sounds like you are on the right track with your strength training routine already - keep up the good work!
These are a no-go with knee osteoarthritis.
Exercise can be safe and extremely beneficial for knee osteoarthritis! Take a look at our video regards this topic: ruclips.net/video/Oyc4iTrjFFU/видео.html
That's interesting. I did 20 my first try and I'm 55 but I'm in the gym a lot and bike over 20 minutes almost every day.
Good stuff, keep up the hard work you've been doing!
I think this test is intended for people who don't train with weights. I'm 53 years old and I train with weights. My test is intended for people who train with weights after the age of 50.
I do very deep squats with a 100 kg barbell in the lowest position, pause for a second and then stand up. 3-5 repetitions are enough. Many young athletes cannot repeat this.
This is a standardized test suitable for everyone. If you scored well, then great! Keep up the good work :)
I am 68 and did 30 and 15 stricts pull ups
Amazing! Well done
61 yo - 16 or 17. Wasn't sure how far I was into the 17th. 🎉
No matter, still a great result! Well done
Im 60. I ate an edible and smoked a bowl. I did 17 and think 20 is very doable. Cool test. Now I can go back to my couch without guilt for the day.
Thanks for tuning in!

Great stuff! Keep up your training :)
I warm up with 100 squats, before working out in the gym, I’m 74 in October….
Amazing! Keep up the good work :)
I bet you do the 100 squats in under 3 seconds

Last year, I squated 580 lbs/263.5kg without a belt at 65 years old! How's that?😂
Amazing! Keep up the hard work with your training :)

No worries. Use your symptoms as a guide to slowly progress all of your exercises :) Consistency is key!
I did 22 at 80 years of age,
Well done!
You've compared 43cm with 17ins. (1:23) Was this a mistake, or have I missed something?
43cm is approximately 17 inches in length! You can use either unit to measure :)
So, shouldn't height or leg length factor in this.
I am 6'4" with 36" inseam and mid 60's.
Yes, having a taller frame will make this more difficult, and this isn't specifically accounted for in this standardized measure.
I had to subscribe. You have a Cattledog in the beginning of the video!
Glad to have you on board!
