  • Strength training is important to build muscle and increase bone density for seniors to prevent falls, the number cause of fatal and non-fatal injuries among older adults. In this video, you will learn how to pick the right weight for strength work.
    We use dumbbells in this video, but the rules apply to any resistance training, including using resistance bands.
    It is important to pick a weight that is challenging and not too light. After a strength workout, it is normal to feel some soreness in your muscles - this means you’re building muscle. Rest until the soreness subsides and be consistent with your strength training. You will get stronger over time.
    Aim to do two full body strength sessions per week - with at least one day of rest in between sessions (Listen to your body - if you’re sore, rest until the soreness subsides.) This is in addition the 150 minutes of cardiovascular exercise to get your heart pumping!
    Always listen to your body and if you struggle lifting a weight once or twice, it’s too heavy.

    Thank you so very much for the great videos! I turned 69 young in March. I’ve always been blessed with good health. Last summer I helped a friend with her 95 year old mother for a week. It was a real eye opener! Phyllis is very sharp mentally but physically struggles tremendously. That week I started walking every day. Started at 20 minutes and worked up to 30 minutes. I was in Wyoming and the early mornings present with beautiful weather. I live in Houston with my daughter and when I returned to Houston in September, the heat and humidity put a halt to my walking outside. I joined a gym in October and was walking on the treadmill. Two months ago I became bored with the treadmill and found myself going to the gym less each week. THEN I found you! What a blessing and great variety of walking work outs. I have saved several of your other work out videos and will be checking those out too
    HUGS to you and your delightful mother ❤️

    Awesome presentation of the various weights and how to determine if you are using the right one for you. I also enjoyed the breathing reminder along with the correct posture as it is harder to maintain muscle mass as we age. Thanks, Aiko, for being such a great role model for us today, as April explained the information. Keep it going and keep us moving with your great workout videos.

    Love you both I am now 7weeks out of intensive care as my body was shutting down. I was sent home on high dose steroids 12 5mg tabs a day for 2 weeks and then I come down by 2 tabs at the end of every 2weeks. Anyway I started with you and your mom on the 20min strength training and I’ve def improved my stamina, my balance is still hit and miss as is my core and breathing, if I concentrate on the moves I forget to breath and vice versa. Anyway I am continuing every day and there is def improvement. Love you both and I’m def a subscriber for life. Thankyou for all the encouragement and keeping me going x❤

    I just viewed this well explained and demonstrated tutorial. I guess I'm well tuned into my body. I now use the 5 pounders for most of my exercises but not for the shoulder press. I started out with 3 pounds. I may revert to a lighter weight when I'm just not up to snuff on certain days. I'm shooting for a heavier dumbbell at some point. I don't know if there's a 6 pounder, but I'll find out when I'm ready to buy a heaver one. Your Mom is a very good sport for providing excellent demo! Thanks again...Anastasia

    • @yes2next
      @yes2next  2 года назад +1

      Thank you! Good to see you! Well, we know how you listen to your body which is terrific! Using 5lb weights is good and very smart to use lighter ones for shoulder work! You have progressed from 3lb weights to the 5lb! That means your muscles are getting stronger! Not sure if there are 6lb weights but if you do find them, please let us know! Keep up the good work and keep listening to your body! Back off if you need to and push forward when it tells you to move!! See you soon! ❤️

    Thanks for the reminder of which weigh to use. Today after using the
    5lb weight it was to heavy so I switched to 3lb weight which much better...

      Yes, there are many other exercises including: Upper body: tricep extensions, rows, flys, overhead presses...Lower body and core: Step backs (or lunges), mini squats, side steps (all holding weights in both hands). Here's a link to our Strength Workouts: bit.ly/3ogXF3G

    Hello from New Hampshire! Just checked in and there you both were, testing out weights. Perfect timing! I even have one pound weights that I sometimes take on walks or on my exercise bike. Good advice on how to determine the best weights to use. I started with a 30 gram protein shake for breakfast today, after watching your podcast with Stephen. Usually only have a coffee, so I made a coffee protein shake :-). I enjoyed it. Made a low fat turkey burger for lunch. With the whole wheat bun, probably another 30 grams. My challenge is meeting that protein mark at supper with soup. Some of my cookbooks do list the protein. Could have fruit and yogurt. Very encouraged about trying this whole body reset for over 50s. Can you also cover basic resistance exercises with bands? Thank you ~ Diane

    • @yes2next
      @yes2next  2 года назад

      Thank you! We timed it perfectly! Using the correct weights means less injury. It's good that you are using 1 lb weights when you walk or exercise on the bike too! Your body will let you know when it's time to move up to heavier ones! Good too, that you are adding more protein to your meals especially breakfast! Stephen's information is definitely food for thought! Keep it going and keep moving with us! See you soon! ❤️

      My favorite eating style is still the Mediterranean diet. I am going through some of these newly published books to extract good tips and then incorporate them into the Mediterranean cuisine. My doctor will be happy! So getting the correct amount of protein and weight bearing exercise fits right in, along with low carb, low sugar and whole foods :-)

      Hi there! So happy it's helpful. Yes, the same rules apply for wrist and ankle weights. If it's a struggle to do an exercise with a wrist or ankle weight, do the move without a weight and build up strength by gradually increasing repetitions.

Or maybe doing full body strength workouts 2-3 times a week and how long for each time. Also if I'm using dumbbells how does that work on my legs. Thanks 🙏🏽

      Hi there! Great job on making a commitment to get stronger! 👏 The type of exercise (cardio, strength, stretching, balance), amount of time you work out in total during the week, and and length of a specific workout depends on your level of fitness. Here is a link to a post on our website that shares info on "How to Get Started with yes2next." bit.ly/3IgMp2Z It includes suggested approaches depending on where you're starting. Exercises for your legs where you can hold two dumbbells include squats, heel raises and step backs. Let us know if you have more questions.

    • @yes2next
      @yes2next  2 года назад +1

      Thank you! Start with a lower weight and if it's too easy try the next heavier one! After 6-8 reps if you are still able to lift with no impact on your form then that is probably the best weight for you! As a test, if you can, try an even heavier one to see how you feel lifting it! Don't extend any lifting if you feel it isn't going to work! Listen to your body! ❤️
