    I was just doing a little extra for myself today & decided to see what else I could do. I am a personal trainer, and was so happy to find something different. Your exercises were not what you normally see. This will add some variety for my senior clients! THANK YOU!!!!

    I mustn't have put this down last time a I'm sure it's less than a week since I last did it. It's a good workout for my legs as well as arms etc thanks Cindy

    • @FitnessWithCindy
      @FitnessWithCindy  2 года назад

      Yes, exercise is highly recommended for thinning bones so I love hearing you are being proactive. Keep up your dedication!

  • @jenniferdavies4619
    @jenniferdavies4619 10 месяцев назад

    Yes this does seem to make me work that little bit more intensely, thanks Cindy definitely a good exercise for me :-)

    @jenniferdavies4619 11 месяцев назад

    I thought I'd look for another weight training as a change and saw this. I think it will be my 'go to' from now on I really felt it working all sorts of muscles in my arms and legs, it also got my heart pumping. Thanks Cindy :-)

    This is another one I keep coming back to again and again after your morning stretch sequence. It’s just right.

  • @jenniferdavies4619
    @jenniferdavies4619 7 месяцев назад

    I must do this more often I seem to concentrate on the toned arm one and this has more of a strenuous side to it that challenges me , especially the one bending at the knees with the weight on my shoulders. I know it will get easier if I do it more often 🙂

  • @jenniferdavies4619
    @jenniferdavies4619 8 месяцев назад

    I seem to have been doing the toning one more so must remember to alternate as I do like this one and it helps my legs also. I think I'm getting better at the bending the knees with the weights on my shoulders also 🙂

  • @jenniferdavies4619
    @jenniferdavies4619 10 месяцев назад

    Getting a little better with this one and it certainly helps tone my arms. One of my favourite exercises. I may even be looking for sleeves tops in the summer, or at leas digging out the ones I've hidden 😂 🤞 Thanks Cindy

  • @jenniferdavies4619
    @jenniferdavies4619 4 месяца назад

    I think I will have to do this one more often as it's targeting my muscles more. I really feel my arms and legs being challenged which is a good thing isn't it Cindy 🙂

  • @jenniferdavies4619
    @jenniferdavies4619 9 месяцев назад

    That's the toning and muscle mass sorted to today and I didn't knock my tracker off either. Think I'm getting a tad better at going down to the bent knee with the heel off the floor but not bragging yet have a way to go before I'm steady 🙂

    • @FitnessWithCindy

    • @FitnessWithCindy
      @FitnessWithCindy  4 года назад

      Thank you for following. So important to keep those muscles from atrophying. And the more muscles the more calories burned. Good for you taking charge of your health.

  • @jenniferdavies4619
    @jenniferdavies4619 9 месяцев назад

    Yes getting better I actually kept my heel off the floor all the time for the bent knee, well apart from once or maybe twice and the second side definitely wasn't as good as the first. 🙂

    • @FitnessWithCindy

    Gosh this must be doing something good for me, I'll have to work more on my balance though, more of a totter but I stayed on my feet. Thanks Cindy :-)

    Love this short workout. 70 yo male walker. Walking is no problem, but my shoulders were getting so stiff that I could barely lift my right arm fully without pain. Doing this everyday, big improvement, plus I love your approach. Thank you!!

    • @FitnessWithCindy
      @FitnessWithCindy  4 года назад +1

      Good for you Bill choosing to search for movements that will help you remain active. Try some of our other videos at www.fitnesswithcindy.com just to mix it up. Thank you for watching!

    • @billconcannon3543
      @billconcannon3543 4 года назад

      Fitness With Cindy thank you. I keep repeating this one (everyday) concentrating on getting movements more in alignment with yours. Thanks again. I’ll try others.

    @jenniferdavies4619 5 месяцев назад

    Back from my daughter's, she's doing really well considering her op was only two weeks ago, her husband is home today so I'm back to my home a day early. I didn't take my weights and could only use 400 gram tins. My weights are only one kilo, I had to go down from two a good while ago, I can't remember why? but I've decided there's quite a bit of difference between the tins and my weights Cindy. My arms are definitely feeling it 😂 😂

  • @jenniferdavies4619
    @jenniferdavies4619 9 месяцев назад

    I find this exercise is so good for my legs, upper and lower, I need to work on them more. I need to be able to walk up and down hills better:-)

  • @IsabellaMorgiadiVicari
    @IsabellaMorgiadiVicari 4 года назад +2

    WOW Cindy did I feel this one!!! I use my 28oz Plum Tomato Cans. Of course I'm Italian! Keep'm coming. Grazie.

    • @FitnessWithCindy
      @FitnessWithCindy  4 года назад +1

      Good for you using your 28oz tomatoe cans! Two things about muscle building that keeps me coming back are, muscles burn more calories than fat, and better muscle mass contributes to longer independence in our future years. So keep ti up to stay healthy and strong!

  • @jenniferdavies4619
    @jenniferdavies4619 10 месяцев назад

    This is a great workout one of my favourites but I think I'm going to have to checkout the flabby arms one so I've not saggy arms in the summer which I really hate on me 🙂

  • @Elizabeth-gn9dc
    @Elizabeth-gn9dc 4 года назад +3

    Cindy, I absolutely love your workouts and intend to get through all of them. You are so practical and your exercises just make so much sense to me and whilst easy to follow, I certainly know I’ve had a good workout.
    I’m a fan of yours from the UK, aged 67 and fairly fit and activeI, but need to lose weight. In the past I’ve exercised in the gym, Zumba, cycling, walking etc, but now, apart from walking my dog, I haven’t exercised for a few years and I feel that low impact exercise will suit me better now.
    I intend to get one pair of dumbbells and wondered what weight each one should be? My thoughts are 2kg for each dumbbell, making 4 kg in total. Does this sound about right to start with ?
    Thanks for your great videos. With your help I hope to reach my goal.

    • @FitnessWithCindy
      @FitnessWithCindy  4 года назад

  • @jenniferdavies4619
    @jenniferdavies4619 9 месяцев назад

    This is definitely one of my favourite exercises though still need practice to get all the benefit. I didn't puff quite like a train today 😂😂 Thank you for letting me know Bo's name Cindy :-)

  • @jenniferdavies4619
    @jenniferdavies4619 9 месяцев назад

    This is such a good exercise only nuisance was I put my tracker on to monitor my exercise and must have knocked it off when I put it in my pocket so it didn't register. Won't do that again in a hurry!

  • @cghrios783
    @cghrios783 4 года назад

    I was looking for a work out where I could do it at my own pace because i don't have full rom due to surgery and your video is very helpful. Thanks so much for making it!!

  • @jenniferdavies4619
    @jenniferdavies4619 9 месяцев назад

    This one gets so much of my body working and also my heart pumping which is very good. I need to get the blood going round my calves and thighs much more so the veins work better and the blood flowing through them so I walk easier without pain. That's the plan anyway whether it's possible? But I'm looking forward to my toned arms anyway every cloud haha 😂 😂

  • @jenniferdavies4619
    @jenniferdavies4619 9 месяцев назад

    I do enjoy this one and it's so good for my calves especially as well as the rest, although I puff like a train at the finish. Cindy I keep missing the name of your dog who's very well behaved. 🙂

    • @FitnessWithCindy
      @FitnessWithCindy  9 месяцев назад +1

  • @jenniferdavies4619
    @jenniferdavies4619 10 месяцев назад
