Great video! I hope a lot of people are inspired. This is also a subject close to my heart. Forty pounds overweight and easily out of breath, I walked into a gym for the first time at age 50. Had no idea what to do. Was very intimidated. I’d never been athletic. But I had to do something! So I hired a personal trainer. That was many years ago. Now at age 72 in the 114 pound weight class, I have many world powerlifting records. Including a 300 pound deadlift after I turned 70. So may I encourage everyone to prioritize strength training in your life. You want to be able to lift your grand babies, carry your groceries, go up stairs without getting out of breath, lift that pot off the stove etc. No matter what condition you’re in, our bodies are able to get stronger. 😊
I got dxd with osterioperosis 2 years ago, I was shocked as I'm pretty fit for 62. Not wanting the meds, I started the Onero weight lifting progarm development by the Bone Clinic Austalia. Deadlifts, squats, and overhead presses supervised by a trained physio. Already dl 80lbs, squats 40lbs. It's tough, but already I'm much stronger. Btw, all of us are not atheletes, just regular ladies in our 60-70s. You can do it!
62 and lift upper one day lower the next. Been doing it for almost 4 years and still love it. I'm in the best shape of my life because of this and my diet.
I'm almost 73 and do 2# and 5# lifting videos daily. I also have started doing wall push-ups. Up to 40 each morning. My feet are 2 feet from the wall. I also carry heavy bags into the house and up the stairs. I've heard as we age, we must continue doing this, especially women. I also do aerobic videos. I started in 2019,just on a shag rug in my bedroom. I have a holder for my phone on my dresser. We can do this. 🙏 💪 ❤
I lift weights every day I’m 63 years old and the most important thing is to build the strength in your leg that you can always be mobile and get off the floor
I am OLD and in my 70s. After watching this video, I got finished with my workout. I do an advanced workout. I tell friends that, they ask what is that? All the usual routines, And and 40 crawling pushups, with 10 alternating 1 arm pushups. Heart rate goes up nicely! Thanks.
Yes because of compression of my neck, the pain is excruciating, so I just stayed in bed, to the point, the more I stayed in bed, the pain went away, from completely fit , to bedridden, now my muscles are so stiff, painful it is hard to move, my daughter said stop, dwelling on not moving, start exercising, 😢
She is right. I know it is hard to understand. If your doctor is okay with it, get out of bed and start moving and then begin low stress exercises and work up to whatever you can do. I am 76, female, and in the last 9 months built up my arms, chest, buttocks. I can actually see muscle where before I had nearly none. I use a gym.
Amen 🙏. Now into the third year of my paleo journey, low carb diet and 🏋. Steady progression, no sports injuries, no Rxs or pain or limitations. I'll be 70 this coming June, trying to keep that Grim Reaper at arms length for as long as I can. 💪
Dr Patrick spoke about doing exercise in older adults can lead to the heart reversing age. The study she spoke about suggested people's hearts reversed 20 years in age. So, just getting out for that evening walk after dinner is still the healthiest thing an older adult can do.
I've just turned 65 and I can't tell you how much strength I've lost in my arms 😮. 5 years ago I was lifting heavy things and building my house ..... Now, I looked at the big concrete bird bath bowl that the sheep knocked over and had to wait for my daughter to help me pick it up, which I could easily do even 4 years ago. I've got some 2kg weights sitting next to my couch gathering dust, so will start doing some weight training TODAY. Thanks for the reminder Dr Dhand 👍.
I'm 72 and I walk 4 miles a day. I also use 20LB dumb bells which seemed light when I was young but are now 'enough'. Always use one at a time (each side) to build core strength.
Yes this!!!! I intend to start this year (I'm 63) and am excited about it. I think it will help with balance too! I'm so glad you addressed this topic. In the process of getting off my blood pressure med which is the only thing I've taken.
I agree. I'm fit as a figgle at 69 years old but I've noticed that my hand strength has decreased. I don't want to go down this route to ill heath so I have started to do resistant training to improve strength.
i started weight training when I was around 66yo. I am still doing it at 71, and still slowly gaining strength. Since I started I have gained significant muscle mass and lost fat
Depends on the metrics. Historical, 70 is elderly, old, 50 middle. Didn't start concrete work training for money until I was 8, working for my dad. Didn't start my son till then either.
Use it or lose it, I lifted as a teen into my twenties then stopped at around 28. I started again a few years ago when I turned 60 and I feel like a teen again. I also went on a vegetarian diet with primarily organic foods.
Great advice. I luckily always lived to lift weights. I started young in my twenties. I am now 67 and very strong and muscular for my age have lots of energy. I put on my favourite music and go to it. :)
I'm 67 and I have a very large garden and orchard to maintain. It means lots of work lifting forks and shovels of earth and weed, pushing wheelnarrows etc. I also am a keen metal detectorist which means I walk miles swinging a detector and carrying a spade. It really makes a difference to my muscles. (No 'wing flaps'!) However, some muscle groups don't get used so much and I have noticed I have lost muscle at the back of my thighs and buttocks. I don't have the 'push' when I want to get up off a low chair or whatever. I am looking for suitable exercises to help address this. Otherwise I am very fit.
iv just started back doing weights after getting two stents and a baloon stuck in my heart. im 66 years old pretty fit for my age. thats been three months since i got the stents. thanks for the video doctor..
Every morning before breakfast I walk for 50 minutes, then lie on my back and lift my dining room table at one end, setting gallon jugs of water on top of the table according to the weight I desire to lift. I'm 71 y.o., eat lots of protein, and very little carb. My arms are thickening, and my lumbar region is strengthening, too.
That is a fact. I will be 70. But in my 20 s I was addicted to exercise, I taught aerobics after a diagnosis of A. S. I workout 30 years. Then stopped when my mom passed away a traumatic death. I lost muscle. I do look younger do to early years of exercise.
I need to start but I have cervical vestibular lightheadness it's a everyday affair. I use to go to the gym 4, days per week and go for walks now because I am always lightheaded and feel like vomiting or feel like I want to pass out I have to take anxiety and dizzy meds. It is a fight everyday to try to do as much as possible. I am 74, and this get me very tired. ❤
THANK YOU Dr. DHAND🤍 I LOVE YOUR HEART❤️ I'LL BE 65 and NEVER THOUGHT of DOING WHAT YOU'VE SPOKEN ABOUT; YOU ARE TRULY AN AWESOME DR. AND A BLESSING TO ALL WHO(M) ENCOUNTER YOUR WORK, EVEN HERE❤ MAY GOD CONTINUE TO BLESS YOU🤍 I GOTTA START SOMEHOW🤗 THANK YOU KINDLY🥰

My dad is 82. He still farms. Lots of lifting etc involved there. However this last year and a half there has been a slight decline. Go Dad Go ❤
What a legend!!
I love how Dr Dhand starts his videos with the TL:DR message, instead of torturing the viewer with click bait.
💯
Dr Dhand is one of my favorites, a Honest doctor, they are hard to find.
💯 agree with you! dr Dhand is the best ❤
If you don't use it you lose it! Thank you Dr Dhand💪🏾
Listen to this Dr. He is right.
Thank you Dr. Dhand for keeping seniors informed ❤❤❤🙏🏽💪🏽

As a 71 year old man who has been training for over 40 years I couldn't agree more.

Well done Barbara! 💪🏽
Exactly Barbara! Women need to keep lifting things because it helps protect the bone from losing density.
Breathing right is very important also to avoid things like hernias! Breathing out when excerting, and in when relaxing the weight. Very important !🙏
I lift weights every day I’m 63 years old and the most important thing is to build the strength in your leg that you can always be mobile and get off the floor
My considerate son got me some exercise bands. They are a real game changer for me.
That is a great gift!
Thank you, again. You are a blessing.
Pure Barre for me. Daily.
65, clean food and intermittent fasting.
I love it all!
I have exercised my entire life.
65 is the new 50!!❤
You can use canned foods for weight as well if you don't have dumbbells. Gallon milk jugs, fill them with water with the weight you want.
THANK YOU for
SHARING🤗
I WILL USE THAT
METHOD AS WELL
@mselmsel3203 your welcome
Thank you very much doctor. I will try. ❤
My mom would swim every day. Another excellent video.
Get this going in schools. Re-teach real physical education. Kid's don't get that physical in PE unless they are in sports.
I’m 78 but when I was younger I worked in a factory warehouse and I had to do lots of lifting.
"Are you saying I'm old in my late 60S"?.....Hell, yeah.
Thank-you you are one amazing Doctor love your vidoes 😊

Good advise Dr. Suneel Dhand💪
I'm 72 and I walk 4 miles a day. I also use 20LB dumb bells which seemed light when I was young but are now 'enough'. Always use one at a time (each side) to build core strength.
Dr Suneel, I have been lifting weights for about 3 decades. I am carrying around about 40 lbs of excess weight...24/7.
Excellent stuff!
😂
Yes this!!!! I intend to start this year (I'm 63) and am excited about it. I think it will help with balance too! I'm so glad you addressed this topic. In the process of getting off my blood pressure med which is the only thing I've taken.
You always are inspiring in your podcasts
Appreciate you watching!
I'm 58 and do strength training 3-4 days a week.
Thankyou for this Dr Dhand 🏴

I'm 80...I lift....I call bs on light weights. Lift heavy...go for it.
But they have to start light so they don’t injure themselves. Little by little.
You go! I started at 2#, now do 3# and 5#.
That's fantastic!!
@barbaragaona7785 there you go! 😎
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
👍
Additionally someone 70 is much different than a 60 year old I have found
Just a question! I’m 73 and I am very active generally but should I do weights as I have fibromyalgia, lipedema, and some arthritis??
Every one needs to do weights...everyone!
@ 😵💫
Running and cycling causes floppy muscles.
What are “floppy” muscles?😂
@sassysandie2865 The muscles droop. You can see it on heavy duty runners and cyclists. The muscle isn't firm ... it's loose..
@ everything droops!😂
Can you do light weight if you have osteoarthritis
Yes, good for arthritis.
@sassysandie2865 Thank you very much
@@mkirwan7165 you’re welcome. I started with 5 pounds and now do some 20 and 30 pounds. I’m 72.
Dumbbell like a democrat? 😂
My idea ofhealth is not watching your praise of RFK
Mine is not watching praise of Fauci
@@williamk.schmidt9034I don’t watch any praise for democrats. That helps me in my mental health.m
I disagree with dumbbell swings for older folks not a good idea
