    In this exercise video Meredith is guiding you through full body, standing dumbbell workout. This is another one of our "THE BEST" series workouts which are designed to give you the most effective movements to build strength, flexibility, balance and endurance.
    This is a full body routine incorporating movements that will work your upper, lower and core muscles. The added resistance of dumbbells is a great way to maximize these movements to be most effective. This is an intermediate level routine so make sure you preview the movements and feel comfortable with them before diving in.
    If you don't have dumbbells available you can always substitute with either water bottles or cans of soup. You can also just do a "Range Of Motion" workout following along without using weights as well. As a reminder, be sure to only do movements that you are comfortable with and that don't cause you pain or discomfort. Keep your water close by for water breaks and have a great workout!

    ❤‍🔥Everyday I practice one or two of your workouts, is another day of taking care and loving myself, while working towards weight management and my overall health goals. There's tons of fit trainers online but there's only ONE you, Meredith! For me, it's the way with which you support your students, teach proper form and continually stress helpful important reminders around safety, is what sets you apart! That you've actually worked with Seniors in an official capacity, puts my mind at ease. I know you take your work seriously and genuinely care for your students experience.
    I look forward to hearing more about what you've got in the works. Thank you for showing up and supporting so many of us in all the ways that you do!💐

    Hello again with much Gratitude for this particular workout is getting more fluid and I so appreciate your reminders about posture, keeping elbows tight and knees slightly bent. Yes, all those things are fundamental but to hear someone else's voice gently reminding of them is key (for me).
    This particular routine coupled with the Hip Pain Seated Stretches is a super charged combo!💪🏽🏋🏽Doing the Hip stretches first, made the dumbbell workout much more fluid and enjoyable. Today I realized while my effort was there to use dumbbells on my own, I was doing several movements incorrectly by over extending my elbows and shoulders at times.
    Seniors are more susceptible to injury so having your guidance is a tremendous help! We all need supportive people in our lives but not everyone has a big family or local support system. Which is why I AM Grateful to have found you Meredith, and I encourage those who benefit from your channel, to consider making a donation on your website, IF they are able. Have a wonderful week!🌻💖

    Great safe work out! I have been exercising over 30 years and most the time do not take weight classes because of my neck, shoulder and low back issues. You explain things well and do exercises that are not too complicated. So many instructors tend to do exercises that could cause injuries. I also like that you incorporate balancing in your exercises and want to thank you for mirroring your moves with ours!

    Hi Meredith - this workout was awesome! I just have a couple questions about form if I may please.
    1. The rotator cuff movements where you're going out sideways with the weights and bringing them back together. Do I have to keep my hands facing up like that? Kind of hurts my right wrist. Not bad, just not comfortable.
    2. The front leg lift when you're holding the weight on your thigh. Does it matter more to keep that leg straight when you are raising it up or can you bend the knee and raise it up higher?
    Thank you so very much for sharing these workouts! I get so much out of them!!

    • @SeniorFitnessWithMeredith
      @SeniorFitnessWithMeredith  2 года назад +2

      Hi Lucy! Thank you for the comment! As for your questions: 1. hands can face in if needed; 2. You can bend the knee if that is where you get the best ROM and no pain in any part of the leg, lower back, hip flexor.
      I hope this helps! Take care, Meredith

      That is a great weight starting out, or doing regularly. Please make sure form is right and all feels okay when doing the moves, most important. If so, then think about upping the weight:) Take care!!
